Amazing!! Highly recommend Marissa

Marissa was wonderful and I totally recommend her. I found her after a very long search and I was desperate for someone who would highlight my face/hair. I had done a trial with someone else and they had made me look aged. Marissa, on the other hand helped me to create a look that was me. She was always on time, always fun and engaging and my hair has never ever looked better. She was always close by to fix my hair for pictures and before and after my ceremony. Truly it was a pleasure working with her.

Belle of the Ball

My sister had Marissa and her team handle the bridle parties hair and makeup. They looked fantastic, but that's not the important part.

Marissa put luxurious hair extensions in my beard and gave me a flower crown to rock. As a 44 year old man with a gray beard and a thinning dome of hair, it was the prettiest I have ever looked in my life. If you're a guy who plans on kicking it with the bridal party and making fun your sister as she gets ready for her wedding, Marissa and her team are the way to go. If any of my sisters get divorced and remarried, definitely using Marissa and her team. On a scale of 1 to 10 bobby pins, they get 10.

The best wedding hair!

I am beyond thrilled to share my wonderful experience with Gabrielle, our wedding hair stylist. She is an incredibly talented artist who can style any type of hair in any way you want, and her flexibility and creativity are unmatched.

During our trial, Gabrielle effortlessly executed three different looks, each one better than the last. When we decided to go in a completely different direction for the actual wedding, she rolled with it without missing a beat. I was so in love with the way my hair looked at the rehearsal dinner that we decided to recreate it for the wedding day, but with a more bridal touch. I loved it even more the second time!

Gabrielle’s talent is truly exceptional, but what makes her stand out even more is her wonderful personality. She is such a kind and warm person, and having her by my side on such an intimate day was a blessing. My husband even asked if all hair stylists were as lovely as Gabrielle, and the answer is a definite no. Gabrielle is truly a gem!

Additionally, I have to give a special shoutout to Marissa, who was incredibly helpful during the planning stages. She guided me through what hair extensions to buy and how to prep my hair for the big day. Her professionalism and clarity made everything so easy and stress-free.

If you're looking for a hair stylist who is not only exceptionally talented but also a joy to be around, look no further than Gabrielle. She made my wedding day hair dreams come true, and I couldn’t be happier with my choice. Thank you, Gabrielle and Marissa, for making our day so special!

Simply the Best!

Marissa and Gabrielle are simply magic! It's hard to put into work what it's like to work with these incredible women. I felt so lucky to have had Gabrielle by my side the day of. She made the day so calm and peaceful and killed it with my hair and my bridal party. The attention to detail these women have is one of a kind. The way they go above and beyond truly makes them stand out above the rest.

From beginning to end, Marissa is AMAZING!

Marissa is a DREAM to work with! She is an absolute magician when it comes to selecting and executing the perfect wedding hairstyle - she is beyond talented, but also so warm and a joy to spend time around. Not only did she work with me through several hair trials to find a look I loved, but she helped me feel so at ease throughout the weekend, through the morning of the wedding, and she was there by my side right until the moment I walked down the aisle. She also styled my mom and grandma’s hair for the weekend, and both continue to talk about how beautiful they felt because of her! I cannot recommend working with Marissa enough and I am counting down until my next big event when I can work with her again. If you are looking for flawless hair and an incredible beauty experience from beginning to end, HIRE MARISSA!

The Best Hair Stylist I've Ever Met

Marissa and I did two home trials prior to my wedding to find my perfect hair style. As someone who's played sports my whole life, I asked Marissa to bring out my signature ponytail look. She was extremely patient, helpful, and open. The morning of my wedding, I got to spend two hours with Marissa and we had an ABSOLUTE BLAST while she did my hair!! She helped calm my nerves, and made sure I was eating and hydrating all morning. She was also right by my side until I walked down the isle, and I feel so lucky to have had her support all day!!!

Flawless hair - just book her already!

If Marissa Molnar is available on your wedding day you should consider yourself lucky, stop reading this, and just go sign her contract! Weeks later I am still blown away by how impeccable, natural, and lustrous my hair looked on my wedding day. Marissa will tend to your hair methodically and not stop tweaking until every strand is in place. My hair looked *exactly* how I hoped it would look and it lasted all night. I am so grateful and thankful for Marissa, her skills, and her gracious and calming vibes.

Marisa is the best. Hands down.

I could not recommend Marissa more! From start to finish working with her was amazing. During our consultation call, she took the time to understand my vision for my hair and provided me with so much time and attention right from the start. She is a true artist when it comes to hair. Just take a look at her Instagram and you will see that immediately. Her style is so natural but not too understated. The perfect mix! She made me feel gorgeous on my special day. Not only is Marissa’s make-up style so refined and beautiful, but her presence was also such a wonderful addition to my entire wedding process from the trial, to communication before the event, to the getting ready process. She is professional, calm, warm, and SO easy to talk to. She also stayed for touch-ups throughout our wedding photos, before the ceremony, and right after and she was on it! She was immediately there whenever my hair needed to be brushed or tamed and did so quickly and efficiently. She made me feel so beautiful and wonderful throughout my entire wedding weekend. You will not disappointed in the slightest if you book her services!
