flexible & communicative - turned out awesome!

Really great service! Made myself and my bridal party feel beautiful! I went into the trial not really know what I wanted to do with my hair and was able to use the time to get a feel for what I wanted. Day of hair turned out perfect! They also worked with me when I changed the style of makeup I wanted after my trial and the day of it ended up better than I could have imagined! Thank you so much for the flexibility and expertise to make me feel awesome for my wedding!

Highly recommed - wonderful team & incredible service

Gretchen and her team OUTDID themselves leading up to and on my wedding day. Gretchen was an absolute pleasure to work with; she is super punctual, communicative and a true professional.

On the wedding day the Love Crush Beauty staff was all timely, super talented and loved by all my friends and family. We had 5 team members come. Every single bridesmaid that had gotten hair and/or makeup done said they were blown away with the services they received. The team listens to exactly what look you are going for, whether you want glam or natural. You can't always make everyone happy but with Love Crush Beauty I promise everyone will be more than happy! Everyone looked incredible, hair and makeup lasted the ENTIRE night (Started at 9am and stayed up until 6am partying!)

Wonderful experience!

The Love Crush Beauty team is fabulous! From the initial wedding hair/makeup trial, to having to postpone the wedding, to making me feel so beautiful on my wedding day, Gretchen was not only super accommodating, but was also extremely kind, responsive, and so talented! She did my hair and makeup EXACTLY how I envisioned it, and it lasted all night! The rest of her team was also amazing - very friendly, professional, and they all did an amazing job. All my bridesmaids and both moms were so happy with how they looked, and everyone's hair and makeup lasted the entire night, through sweat and (happy) tears. And on top of all that amazing work, they are very reasonably priced, especially compared to other similar vendors in the Long Island area. I highly highly recommend them.

Amazing!!!!!!!

Loveee them! Highly recommend! Working with them was such a breeze, very nice and very professional! I was so impressed with their precautions during Covid to ensure everyone’s safety. I used them for my hair and my bridesmaids hair and love how it came out! So blown away!

I felt gorgeous

Gretchen and her team were a calming presence the morning of my wedding. They were complete professionals and knew exactly what they were doing during our VERY early morning hair and makeup session. With my mother having spent this past year battling and beating ovarian cancer, she was concerned that she wouldn’t feel beautiful for our wedding. But Gretchen and her team made my mother feel absolutely beautiful, they took the time to expertly apply lashes, and makeup, and no one could tell she was wearing a wig that day. She didn't look sick at all and looked beautiful and vibrant! Making sure my mom felt gorgeous was a top priority for me on my wedding day and they absolutely succeeded in doing just that. My only advice would be to make sure you schedule enough time for getting ready...don’t want to feel rushed and anxious.

Everyone looked amazing!

Gretchen and her team did such an amazing job! We were all so happy with how our hair and makeup turned out, and for me, seeing everyone in their final look is really what made it all seem so real!!! Getting your hair and makeup done is such a fun and important part of the specialness of the day, and that’s exactly how Gretchen made me feel! Her and her team were right on time and had everyone’s hair/makeup scheduled out in order to make sure we were done and ready for the photographers. The whole morning was seamless and everyone looked perfect! So if you want to feel beautiful, and confident, and relaxed (as much as you can be) then you should definitely hire Love Crush Beauty!

Gretchen and her team are great to work with

Gretchen and her team were great! I have to say I was a little nervous and pestered Gretchen with questions leading up to the wedding day, but she was super patient and willing to do what needed to be done to make my day easy and me comfortable. I really appreciated her flexibility and her work was amazing!! It was 84 degrees and very humid out. My makeup stayed all day and so did my curls!

Special shout out to Shani who also did some great work on my mom and sister!

LoveCrushBeauty really knows what they’re doing and it was a plus that they offered both hair and makeup for one stop shopping!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
