5-Star Hairdresser, Don't Settle for Less

Wow, my hair could not have turned out better. It was truly the hairstyle of a lifetime. I had done a trial with someone who simply curled with a flatiron and I had the notion that I had better find someone else three weeks before the wedding. That someone else was Giselle. You will know immediately that she is above the rest. Her attention to detail and craft allows her to perfect and any style. I had very big hair that swept to the side, and the was a close rival to my dress as to how it made my day and look into
something truly special and magical. Colorado brides are lucky to have someone like Giselle, who ONLY does bridal hair rather than cut or style with bridal hair on the side. I am so pleased with how I looked. Once-in-a-lifetime is what Giselle accomplishes

So talented!

Giselle is a very talented hair stylist! I sent her inspiration photos for all of my bridesmaid and myself and she nailed every one of my girl's hair styles, and mine. We were all so impressed!! She was also very responsive every time I reached out to her which is really important for me when I was planning. I absolutely loved working with her!

Beautiful, personalized, and professional service--highly recommend!

Giselle did a wonderful job for my mom, sister and me on my wedding day! We did two trials together and she worked with me to develop a style that fit me perfectly for the big day. She also gave me tips leading up to the wedding for products, highlights, and hair cuts/styling that would give us the most flexibility and best options for the day-of style. All three of us had very different day-of styles and Giselle made sure we all got the exact look we wanted, all while maintaining a calm, upbeat, and fun demeanor that was perfect for what can be a very hectic day. I cannot recommend Giselle highly enough--all of our hair looked great throughout the night and we were still receiving compliments the next morning!

Absolutely recommend Giselle!

Giselle is absolutely amazing! Not only did she create the fiercest, most beautiful bridal hair I've ever seen, she was able to deliver just as amazing looks for the bridesmaids. She understood each of our requests, tailored to our needs, and ensured we walked away feeling 100% beautiful. I was the first to get my hair done at 9am and it lasted all night long and still looked flawless. Thank you, Giselle!

Pintrest hair IRL

Giselle gave me my wedding dream hair! It was so unique and gorgeous and I received countless compliments. I had only one request which was ,"I don't want your typical bridal hair" and she gave me just that, this hair was something you would see walking down the runway or in a couture bridal magazine. Not only did she do a fantastic job on my hair, but everyone in the bridal party had beautiful, flawless hair. Giselle was such a pleasure to work with, not only is she so sweet and fun to work with, she makes sure you're happy and completely exceeded all expectations. One of the best in the biz and I couldn't have been more thrilled.

Amazing hair and very professional

Giselle is amazing! I went with the all day 10 hour package where she did my hair and my bridal party AND came with us to the ceremony and reception. This was great because she was able to touch everyone up throughout and she did two looks on me (hair down and hair up). Throughout the process she was very responsive and patient. On top of it all she took some great pics during our photo opt with wedding party so I was able to get those right away since the professional ones take weeks!

Amazing hair experience!

Giselle is fantastic! I loved my hair and got so many complements throughout my wedding. It looked flawless all night and didn't budge through lots of laughing and dancing. She also styled my close girlfriends, and they were all thrilled with their looks! Giselle was so easy and pleasant to work with, we loved having her with us while getting ready on my wedding day. I cannot recommend her enough!

Giselle is magical!

Giselle is a dream! My mom happened to stumble upon her work at a bridal vendor expo at Stone Tower Winery (our venue) in March 2017, and I'm so grateful that she encouraged me to reach out to Giselle for a trial that May prior to our engagement photos. I received countless compliments after those photos came back, and I knew Giselle was our gal! She is incredibly skilled, patient, and kind, and we were so lucky to have booked her!

On our wedding day in September 2018, Giselle and her assistant Claire Monroe were ready for us as we walked into the farmhouse bridal suite at Stone Tower. While there were 13 of us to get through, they sat down with each of us to understand our respective Pinterest visions and did beautiful work in record time! She even humored (and beautifully executed!) my rather silly requests for a Kate Middleton-inspired wedding updo. Despite our sheer numbers, we never felt rushed, and Giselle was incredibly generous to stay a bit late to help us with touch-ups.

Beyond her professionalism and amazing ability to take your vision and make it reality, Giselle is a beautiful person. Her calm demeanor and playful sense of humor make her the perfect person to have in your corner on your big day. I cannot recommend Giselle highly enough, and I will definitely be bugging her to beautify my locks next time I need professional hair styling in the DC area. We love you, Giselle--thank you for everything!

Excellent and professional

Giselle was wonderful, she is personable and professional and did an amazing job on my hair, my Mom's hair, my matron of honor and daughters hair. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone and I would use her again in a heartbeat!

Giselle was absolutely wonderful to work with. My daughter, the bride, and I have very curly hair and we have never had our hair "done" and we worried about looking looking like ourselves with styled hair. Giselle is a complete artist: she styled both of us so we looked elegant and styled but like ourselves: not an easy task. The other women in the wedding party had beautiful styles that lasted hours, and hours, and hours despite serious dancing. Giselle is calm and low key (very helpful the day of!!!) and all about making you feel happy and confident with your wedding day hair. Any bride would be lucky to work with Giselle.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Giselle is one of the most beautiful people I know inside and out, in addition to being amazing at what she does. She is a consummate creative professional whose gentle caring spirit brings out the best in you and others...any day of the week. When we get to work together with brides and their families on wedding days its a beautiful day all around. Giselle is without a doubt one of 2 stylists in the field that are indeed in a league of their own. I can't recommend Giselle enough as I think so highly of her as a colleague, professional and friend in the industry.
