Amazing in Every Way!

Lauren is so sweet and talented! I had another stylist cancel somewhat last minute and I ended up being glad that happened because of how wonderful Lauren was.

She did mine and my sisters hair and even helped my mom with a last minute fix up. We all have longer, thick hair. Every other time I’ve had my hair done for a wedding, it’s fallen out so quickly or just hasn’t looked that great. Lauren made it look exactly how I envisioned and it held up all day through the beach, boat rides, and rain. Even after 12 hours, there was barely a hair out of place.

She was a joy to work with and I can’t recommend her enough!

The Absolute Best!

Lauren was an absolute joy to work with. She and her friend did myself (the bride), my mom, and my 6 bridesmaid's hair and make up, for my wedding day! Lauren helped set up a trial in advance of the wedding, so I knew exactly what I wanted to do with my hair and makeup come the big day. She is extremely professional, but also so personable, calm, and sweet, she makes you feel like your friend is doing your hair/makeup. Lauren is also so beyond talented! She works so quickly and so easily did all the different hair styles and makeup that my friends asked for, we were all so impressed. She encourages you to say if you want anything changed, as she does hair/makeup, and makes it such a comfortable process. I never felt more beautiful, yet more myself, than I did on my wedding day, thanks to Lauren! Cannot recommend her enough.

Exactly what I wanted!!!

Working with Lauren was amazing! My husband and I eloped so it was just me no bridesmaids or family. Lauren made me feel beautiful and special! She gave me exactly what I wanted. My hair and makeup were perfect! I didn’t have any problems. My makeup stayed on even after a mile hike!

Incredible hair and makeup artist!

I had a phenomenal experience with Lauren, she was incredibly professional and kept us on schedule! My hair and makeup lasted the entire day, and photographed beautifully. Could not recommend her more!

Amazing service

Lauren did my hair and makeup for a styled photo shoot and she did an amazing job! My updo was so secure and lasted all night and so did my makeup. On top of being so sweet, she is very talented and I would love to have her do my hair and makeup again.

Every time I am around her she is doing someone’s hair and making them look beautiful.

Lauren knows her stuff. She is extremely talented and can do so many beautiful and elaborate hair styles. You won’t regret have her do your hair.

Best updo I’ve ever had!

Lauren was exceptional with my wedding updo and all my bridesmaids! She created the perfect look for my wedding day with no trial run beforehand even - absolutely exquisite work!
