Nicoletta is a true hair genius. I use Nicoletta for other styling needs so when it came to my wedding, I felt LUCKY to have her. She has confidence and grace, and this is SO important on the biggest party of your life! She asked for a couple photos and inspiration and then took it from there. She makes me feel like a Hollywood movie star, with the most fabulous hair! Not only is she fantastic at her art, but she is also communicative and personable. She makes you feel comfortable and provides a sense of calm on a day that can be extremely stressful. If you’re able to use Nicoletta on your big day, DO IT! I’ve received tons of compliments about how amazing my hair looked, in person and in photos. AND it lasted all night (and I was dancing up a storm). Look no further and book this amazing hair genius.

She’s Perfect!
What can I say about angelic Nicoletta? She made my bridal hair and makeup dreams come true. She was so communicative through the trial process and on the day SHE. DE. LIV. ERED. All of my bridesmaids said my glam squad was the best they’ve ever experienced (I TOLD them...I was already so impressed by the trials). Nicoletta on hair and her associate Kat on makeup are a dream team. I’m very particular (ok a total freak) about my hair and makeup and give them my highest, highest recommendation. I got soooo many compliments on my dreamy Bardot Bride vibe and I felt more beautiful than I ever have in my whole life. Nicoletta is the real deal!

Nicoletta is amazing!
Nicoletta is incredibly talented and was one of my favorite partners/vendors at my wedding! She was the first person I came to (at the recommendation of a girlfriend) for my hair and I immediately felt at ease working with her. We went through a few different styles during my trial to find "the one" and she couldn't have been more patient or understanding through the process. We actually decided to do two looks the day of the wedding--hair up for the ceremony and down with extensions (to add body/volume) for the party. I was clueless when it came to extensions, but Nicoletta walked me through everything and couldn't have been more helpful during the process. She made time to do a trial for my mom pre-wedding and was amazing with day-of hair for some of the bridesmaids.
Not only is Nicoletta such a talent, but she also has a network of equally talented makeup artists and hairstylists. I found my makeup artist, Tanika, at Nicoletta's recommendation and I am forever grateful! Tanika was amazing to work with and I absolutely LOVED my hair and makeup together.
Due to the size of my bridal party and not wanting to begin too early on the day of the wedding, we asked Nicoletta to bring a third person, Kat, who completely nailed it when doing a handful of my bridesmaid's hair and makeup.
Honestly, I can't recommend Nicoletta highly enough. She's talented, professional, fun to be with, understanding, calm, sweet....the list goes on and on. I am still thanking my girlfriend who recommended her to me.

I hired Nicoletta for hair and couldn't have been happier
HIRE NICOLETTA!! She is a GEM! She has such incredible talent, I am still in awe when I think back to my wedding hair. I wanted something a little off the normal bridal hair path, I showed her a picture, and she absolutely KILLED it!! I cannot recommend her enough. Her pricing is competitive, her humor is perfectly sarcastic (so fun to hang with day of!), and her talent is absolutely unmatched. She can do anything you want - and make it look flawless. I was extremely picky with my hairstylist, I cannot tell you how many hours I spent on instagram trying to find a hairstylist with her level of talent, only to be blown away day of by her works of art!!! And on top of that, she took such time and love on my bridesmaids and they all looked incredible! No joke, hire her. Period!

Thank you, Nicoletta! (I LOVED MY HAIR)
Nicoletta did my hair for my brunch wedding in April. When I met her I'd already done a hair and makeup test with someone else and was panicked because it wasn't what I wanted. It didn't help that everything bridal beauty really stressed me out - I'm pretty casual in my normal life, so it was difficult to know what I wanted/needed. I was also self-conscious about being a bride with natural gray hair. Nicoletta put me at ease right away during the trial, and that's where I met Tanika who did my makeup, too. On my wedding day, they arrived on time, calming and ready to get to work! I was overjoyed with my hair and makeup, which looked beautiful and stayed in place wonderfully for the whole wedding. It was an absolute dream! My maid-of-honor looked gorgeous, too, and was so happy! It really was a joy to start my special day in such capable, kind hands. Thank you, Nicoletta!!!

Best In The Business!
I do not have enough words to express the gratitude I have for Nicoletta and the magic she has with hair! Nicoletta worked with me to create the most beautiful wedding hairstyle that held ALL NIGHT LONG. She even provided me with a little touch up kit to take with me that was so thoughtful. She can do the most unique updo styles my bridesmaids and I have ever seen. They are absolutely beautiful. And the all down and half up styles she did on me made me feel the prettiest I've ever felt. She is truly a wizard of what she does. She's also AMAZING with kids. She was so sweet and fun with my little 2 year old daughter and even helped to do her hair. If you're looking for a hairstylist in the areas Nicoletta covers, do not look any further. She's the best!

October wedding hair
Nicoletta and Kat did a wonderful job on hair and makeup for the big day! I asked on a Facebook group for a stylist who could do high volume wedding hair, and Nicoletta responded. I’m so glad she did, because she used a 3 or 4 step technique to get my hair where I wanted it to be:). After the trial, both girls were able to incorporate all the little tweaks I had. It was great having them around for the get ready party! Really appreciate the quick responses leading up the wedding too!

Nicoletta was great! Couldn’t have asked for a better hair stylist!
This review is long over due!! My wedding was back in April! Nicoletta was very prompt and professional. I literally do my hair the same everyday so her input and understanding to what I wanted was very important and she was all that and much more. I couldn’t have asked for a better hair stylist. I now go to her for my haircuts cause she does an amazing job! You won’t be disappointed.

Nicoletta and her Magic Hands!
Nicoletta was an awesome stylist that came prepared on my wedding day! She was referred to us by my wedding coordinator, so I was happy that I didn't have to search far to find her.
I didn't have the time to do a trial because I lived out-of-town. After looking through pictures and talking through my ideas via email, she delivered! We came up with something soft and romantic.
She also styled my mom's and sister's hair, and both of them came out loving it! I was an easy bride lol, so I let the bridesmaids choose their hairstyles. Nicoletta customized my mom's and sister's looks to bring out their beauty!
I felt so beautiful on my wedding day. My husband even started crying lol. All in all, I would highly recommend that you book Nicoletta and her team for your big day!!!

Talented and wonderful
Nicoletta did mine and my mom’s hair for my wedding in April 2019 and she did not disappoint. I showed her a few photos of what I wanted and during the trial she tried the styles I wanted, but with my hair being so difficult, it did not stay. She was awesome though, she took note of how difficult my hair was and tried a variety of different products to help the situation. By the time my wedding day came she was able to tweak the style and find the right products to make it hold. I absolutely loved my hair on the day of my wedding and have never felt prettier. She is extremely talented and very professional. On the day of the wedding she showed up to my place on time and had me out the door on time as well. She also did the coloring of my hair just before the wedding and I absolutely loved the color! I now have started to go to her to get my hair colored. She is amazing and I highly recommend her.
