Excellent blonding skills

I went to Grace to get a rather difficult highlight on dark hair, and SHE NAILED IT.

Absolutely Loved The Red Stiletto!

I am so glad I chose The Red Stiletto for my wedding! Our whole group looked and felt beautiful! Our stylists listened to what each person wanted and we were all so happy with how everything turned out. As the bride, I had a hair and makeup trial and ended up wanting to switch my hair up day of the wedding. This was no problem for my stylist, Haven, and I was in love with the way my hair turned out! My makeup stylist, Stephanie, listened to what I wanted and it turned out better than I could have imagined! The whole group was fun and professional and it was such a great way to start the morning of my wedding - I would highly recommend them to anyone considering both hair and makeup services!

Love love love

From a girl who never wears makeup…I was obsessed with my wedding day look! Stephanie and Emily were so easy to work with and receptive to what I was wanting. I also had my mom and 6 bridesmaids hair and makeup done as well for the big day. It was important for me that everyone’s look to be cohesive. I got married outside on a drizzly day and my makeup lasted ALL night. I switched up my hair the day of the wedding with Emily. I just let her work her magic and it came out perfect! I’m so thankful I found them for my big day and will keep them in mind for future big events!

Wedding Makeup

The best hair and makeup around! The Red Stiletto did my wedding makeup, the entire bridal party makeup, mother of the bride makeup and some of the bridesmaid's hair. I cannot say enough good things about them. From the beginning, Hope was very easy to work with and always very responsive. Everything was clear and she was on top of every detail! The trial makeup and wedding day makeup was amazing. I received so many compliments on it. I've been in a few weddings and my eyes always feel heavy with fake eyelashes and the artists at The Red Stiletto put the eyelashes on perfectly and my eyes never felt heavy. I wanted a more dramatic look and my mom and some bridesmaids wanted a more natural look and they were able to please everyone. They really know what they're doing. Highly recommend The Red Stiletto for wedding hair and makeup!

Fun-Loving!

It was easy to talk to our stylists on wedding day- they were fun, sweet and even seemingly as excited as we were for the wedding. We had little girls running around and their patience was incredible.

I absolutely loved working with The Red Stiletto!! I was scheduled with my regular hair dresser for my hair and makeup for the wedding, but 5 weeks before the wedding he cancelled on me and tried to switch me to a different person at his salon for the day of the wedding. Hope had done my makeup for my engagement pictures, which I LOVED, so we called her to see if she could help. She was able to book us for the morning of for hair and makeup for my MOH and I, and I am so incredibly thankful that it worked out! Hope did my makeup for the wedding and it was not only stunning, but it lasted the ENTIRE DAY! I had a sweaty ceremony at a home with 50 people in the morning, pictures downtown in 90 degree weather, another ceremony in the evening, and the reception (the venue was also very warm). My makeup was flawless as I was taking it off at midnight. Emily did my hair, which was even more beautiful than when she did it for the trial! It was beautiful and similarly lasted all day. These ladies were so professional and so much fun to work with!! I can not recommend them enough!!
