Incredible women

These women were so incredible!! I can't say enough about them! They made such a fun and warm environment for the morning of the wedding and had such a great time with my bridesmaids. I had a wedding makeup trial with them as well and the makeup artist came all the way to my house and did exactly what I was looking for. They are all such great women, and you should definitely have them for your wedding!

An Absolute Dream Team!

I cannot recommend Jana and Co. enough! From the moment I met Jana I knew that I was going to be well taken care of! When they arrived on my wedding day, they didn't just feel like a vendor team—they treated us like family. They brought such a warm, calming, and joyful energy to the room, which is exactly what every bride needs on her big morning. They did hair for all of my bridesmaids, and every single one of them absolutely loved their look. It’s rare to find a team that can cater to so many different styles and hair types so flawlessly, but they nailed it. As for my mom (Mother of the Bride) and myself, we both had our hair and makeup done. We were absolutely thrilled with the results! My mom looked stunning and felt so confident, and my own hair and makeup lasted perfectly through all the tears, dancing, and smiles. They truly listened to what we wanted and made us feel like the most beautiful versions of ourselves. If you want a team that is incredibly talented, professional, and will care for you like their own, book them immediately! Thank you all for making my day so special.

Lovely and Professional

I had the absolute pleasure of meeting and working with Jana to do hair and makeup for my wedding. From the get-go, Jana welcomed me with open arms and made me feel like we’d known each other forever. She is incredibly personable and just a kind human being. She is not someone who is going to push you into something you are not comfortable with, and she’s very open and communicative. Her experience shows in her ability to turn the inspiration photos to real life.

I opted to do the hair/makeup trial, which I very much recommend. Not only will you get the chance to experience what it’s like to worth with Jana, but it’ll help steer your vision if you’re not sure where to start. As someone who does not wear makeup or do my hair in my everyday life, this was pretty key to figuring out the look I was going for. I ended up changing the hairstyle completely from the trial vs the wedding day (I brought inspiration photos for each look) and Jana was absolutely game for it all. We both ended up loving how my hair looked the day of the wedding, and it framed my face in a more flattering way.

Also, I absolutely loved how my makeup turned out. I still looked like me, but just enhanced. She blended different colors to customize and match my skin tone, and also custom blended the lip color shade. The makeup also felt really light and didn’t appear to be caked on, AND it lasted to the end of the evening. My mother-in-law also had similar compliments regarding the lightness of the makeup.

Jana brought her colleague Kathleen to do the hair/makeup for my mother-in-law and makeup for my mom. Kathleen brought the same easy going energy, and it was just a fun gab fest in the getting ready room.

Jana also took a lot of pictures during the process for the trial, and also the day of the wedding, and sent them over the next day (She would have airdropped it, but I don’t have an iphone). So I had some getting ready photos of my special day immediately, instead of having to wait for the professional photos to come back. I cannot say enough nice things about the experience and Jana made the process stress free.

Don't think twice, just book!!!

I cannot speak highly enough of Jana and team.

From the very first trial to the wedding day itself, working with Jana was such an incredible experience. At the trial itself, Jana was kind, generous with her time and completely listened to what I wanted and totally nailed it. No notes! I immediately felt comfortable with my decision to trust her and the team to bring to life what I had envisioned.

I never felt rushed - instead, they created such a calm, collaborative environment that made the whole process genuinely fun and stress-free.

On the wedding day, Jana, Angel and lily were just as amazing. They arrived on time, stayed organized, and worked so efficiently without ever making anyone feel hurried. Their kindness and positive energy set the tone for the entire morning, and everyone in my group felt taken care of and beautiful.

The final looks held up PERFECTLY all day and night, and I felt completely like myself - just elevated and confident. I’m so grateful for their talent, professionalism, and warmth. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a team that truly listens and delivers beyond expectations!!! Thank you so much, Jana, Angel and Lily! Appreciate you more than you know!!

Freckles and Long Straight Hair made Curly

Jana did my full hair and make-up for my wedding, and I felt so beautiful! I have very long straight hair that has a hard time holding a curl, and she gave me a beautiful curly style that held into the next day! I also have freckles, and she created a very natural, glowing makeup look that provided coverage but let my natural skin shine. About four weeks before the wedding, I did a trial, and I loved Jana's style immediately. The look we established at the trial was exactly what she provided for the wedding, and I appreciated the consistency which made it so easy to plan. Jana created a perfect timeline for me, my mom, and my bridesmaids on the morning, and her colleague Kathryn was incredible. They were so easy to work with, and they set up their equipment in such an organized way in the bridal suite, and dealt with antique outlets in the historic inn. Highly, highly recommend Jana for your hair & makeup for any event you have coming up!

Hammertime Wedding

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Jana & Co. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. We had a very large wedding party of 12 girls, and their team handled everything with professionalism, efficiency, and genuine care. Everyone looked absolutely stunning, and the timing was seamless despite the size of our group.

As the bride, I felt especially taken care of by Jana. She made me feel completely comfortable and calm throughout the entire process. Her presence was so warm and reassuring, it truly felt like she was taking care of me as if I were one of her own daughters. That level of care meant more to me than I can express, especially on such an emotional and important day. I truly feel blessed and will cherish this experience forever.

My hair and makeup were flawless and held up beautifully all day and night. Jana & Co. exceeded every expectation, and I am so grateful to have had them be part of my wedding day. I would highly recommend them to any bride looking for not only incredible talent, but also a team that truly cares about their clients.

Hands down the best

Jana,

Where to even begin. From the first time I spoke to her I knew she was the right person and her vibe was everything. I was coordinating a big group of women who needed to be pampered prior to a family wedding. Jana was an absolute angel to work with. I will never forget our first phone conversation and how I felt leaving it. I literally felt upon hanging up that I had just chatted and planned some thing amazing with my longtime best friend. Jana and me stayed in contact regularly leading up to the big event and she never bad and I despite the numerous schedule revisions we needed to make. She was so kind and understanding and reassuring that these things just happened sometimes and that’s why we planned the schedule accordingly. I truly wish that I lived closer to Jana because she would become my go to Stylists for all events. All I can truly say, and hope is if you have come across her page, look no further, you will not be disappointed! I sincerely hope that Jana and I get the opportunity to cross paths again, She is truly such an amazing person and artist you can tell this is her true calling

Amazing hair and makeup

I am so happy my wedding planner connected me with Jana - she and her team were absolutely amazing and made the best and smoothest start to my wedding day. From meeting her months ago to do my trial hair and makeup run (pairing it with our engagement shoot), I knew she had the calm, fun, comforting presence to get me feeling and looking my best! She and her team were professional, communicative, easy to work with, and turned our beauty visions into reality, while still keeping us recognizable as ourselves. She diligently noted what we tried out on our first run and then followed up on any adjustments I may have contemplated over the intervening months. She and her team were great working with me and my bridal party with a variety of hair textures and skin tones. We also loved that she was snapping pics all along the way (especially since our professional photographer started off with the groom's party), so we got to enjoy some *authentic* getting ready photos! I do not know exactly when I will be getting as dolled up again soon, but I will absolutely be seeing if Jana is available to princess-ify me again!

Jana & Co! Yes. 100%. Done. I have photographed just short of 200 weddings, I have attended at least 200... I know what is needed the morning of a wedding: -You need a professional hair & makeup artist. -You need a professional who is so professional that you completely relax and forget that she is a professional because she's so happy, controlled, and upbeat that you forget that you haven't known her for 15 years... -You need a professional who is not going to show up in bright pink spandex and blue hair, or sweats and a bra and ruin all of your morning photos (Hey, I like blue! I like sweats... but I also really like elegant sweet photographs ;). ) -You need someone who is relentlessly on time and doesn't sweat it. -You need someone who aids your own beauty, and lifts your eyes, lifts your hair, and lifts your spirit. -You need Jana & Co.! I truly adore this woman, and am always absolutely pleased with her professionalism, her warmth, and her care for our clients.
