So amazing!

Jae and Carolynn were absolutely incredible! The hair and makeup looked so beautiful! My entire bridal party and I were so happy with the final result! Also even when I was having bridal jitters and overanalyzing everything, they helped me stay calm and listened to me so well!

Best Makeup & Hair!

Jae Lee and Carolynn are always the best to work with. They have done my makeup plenty of times for various events and absolutely NAILED IT on my wedding day. Plus, they are always fun to hang around since you do spend some good time together! I would recommend them to anyone in the Pittsburgh area if you are in need of a makeover for a good event – they make it look so natural too!
