    Talented, professional, and beautiful

    The hair and makeup team were fantastic! They were able to create exactly what I asked for. Both my hair and makeup stayed put for the whole night. I would book them again for another event.

    You can trust them with any of your beauty needs!!

    Calma salon is amazing!! Let me start off by saying I found them 4 months before my wedding, when Gianna came in to do my hair and makeup for my bridal shower a week beforehand when my original makeup artist could no longer do it. I am very picky and have had some bad experiences with hair and makeup in the past, but Gianna truly made me feel so beautiful! Again, I reached out to see if they could do my makeup for my Christmas photos the day of as my original makeup artist again cancelled a few hours prior to me being there. Melissa fit me in and she gave me exactly what I asked for! I felt gorgeous! At this point, it was 2 months prior to my wedding and I wasn't trusting my makeup artist since it was the 3rd time she cancelled on me. I spoke with Denise and she accommodated me for my wedding day, thankfully! I was finally able to trust my makeup artist for my wedding day (which was a huge relief)! Cinthya created the perfect look for my rehearsal dinner and Brittany was phenomenal the day of my wedding! They both traveled to Newport to do myself and 5 girls makeup for the wedding day! I have never seen my girls any prettier than they were on that day! Brittany even did the little tweaks I asked for after my trial, and helped me pick out the perfect color lipstick for my girls so I could purchase it for them for touch ups! They also gave me the lip liner to touch up my lipstick the day of the wedding so it wouldn't get too thick after doing so many touchups! I am truly thankful for everything everyone at Calma Salon did for me for all my events prior to the wedding and my wedding day! They are beyond accommodating and all create beautiful looks! I will be going to them for all my makeup needs! It is amazing having a salon you can truly trust!!! If looking for a makeup artist or hairstylist for your wedding day or for anything in general, choose Calma Salon!! Everyone there is absolutely incredible!!

    Wedding Hair and Make-up

    I asked for my Wedding hair and make-up last minute. Denise was so quick and responsive and set me up with Gianna Gargaro who was able to do my trial last minute and it was absolutely beautiful. Gianna was so sweet and helpful. Definitely recommend.

    Book Calma right now! xo

    I would recommend Calma Salon and their team for any special event in your life. I have had a special client relationship with Calma for several years getting professional hair and make-up services and they have never ceased to exceed expectations. Denise and her staff of talented artists are kind, understanding, and so professional. That is why the minute I became engaged, I already entrusted Denise and Calma as my hair and make-up vendor. Calma really gives you the kind of bridal experience any girl would dream of. I knew from the beginning, the look, theme, and vision I wanted, but needed some of their expertise to determine some final details. As previously stated, not only is their staff professional, but they are so knowledgeable that they helped me execute the most wonderful bridal look. I am so grateful for all they have done for me and all that they continue to do. They are truly the most wonderful salon and human beings! Thank you, Calma! xo

    Couldn’t of asked for anything better

    So I had a make up artist already booked but did not like the way she did my engagement shoot. She wasn’t available for my bridal shower so I reached out to Melissa at Calma and she was able to do my bridal shower makeup. I received so many compliments that day about how beautiful my makeup looked. Everyone told me to fire my makeup artist and hire Melissa. I really wanted to but felt bad backing out on someone else. We’ll that person made it impossible to work with, I reached out to Melissa begging her to see if she had availability for my wedding and she did. I was so happy and excited. We got compliments all night about how we all looked amazing and how amazing we all looked. I cried several times and my makeup still stayed! I couldn’t be happier with Calma Salon.

    Best in the biz

    I can’t say enough about how great the Calma team was throughout my engagement - and of course the day of my wedding. They made me look gorgeous for my engagement photo shoot, bridal shower, rehearsal dinner and wedding. Seriously....I’ve never felt more beautiful, flawless, and confident. The team is receptive to feedback and flexible to changes in schedules and decisions for the day of an event. I loved these girls so much- hands down made me the happiest bride. My makeup didn’t move at all- I even slept with it and it was perfect the next day for our brunch. Ridiculous. My bridesmaids and our mothers looks like movie stars; there was a clear difference between how my girls looked for the big day vs how I’ve looked in friends’ weddings. They made us all look classy/sexy for my New Years Eve wedding- and were so calm in my not so calm bridal suite. Thank you again for EVERYTHING!!!!!

    Denise & her staff at Calma are amazing & talented! Lyza K styled me for my wedding hair trial & Amanda B did my make-up trial. Both Lyza & Amanda as so incredibly talented. I felt totally comfortable with them. I was also was THRILLED with how glamourous I looked and felt! Both complimented me on my hair and make-up inspiration photos. They kept me looking like "myself," but enhanced me features to transform me to look like a beautiful bride! I'm looking forward to having my hair & make-up done on my wedding day!

    The ladies at Calma Salon are fabulous! Denise (the owner) did my wedding make-up and Ashley did my hair. They also provided these services for my mom and two sisters. There was a separate team from Calma who took care of my bridesmaids, but I don't know any names of those stylists (we were getting ready at 2 different locations). Everybody was thrilled with the results, and our whole bridal party looked beautiful! Denise and her team are true professionals - they are courteous, patient, and very easy to coordinate with. Always quick to respond to questions via email, text, phone call, etc... I had trial appointments with both Denise & Ashley & couldn't have been happier. I loved Ashley so much that I've now adopted her as my primary hair stylist :) She did my color before the wedding & also colored my hair extensions. I will definitely use Denise again if I ever need to get my make-up done, and will highly recommend her & her entire staff to any other friends who get married in the future. There are so many options for vendors out there, and I feel so lucky to have found them. Their prices are competitive and their service is exceptional. These women really cared about my happiness/satisfaction, and they went above & beyond. Can't recommend them highly enough!

    Amanda did my hair and makeup for my wedding on 10/12/14 as well as my bridesmaids makeup and my mothers. I can not thank her enough! I looked and felt amazing on my wedding day as well as all my girls! She did a beautiful job on everything! She is great to work with she truly listens to you and what it is that you want. She was just simply amazing!

    Denise and Leeann were absolutely wonderful to work with and were so much fun! Befonning with the makeup and hair trial to the week of facials, last minute touch ups and the day of my wedding they listened and provided their ideas recommendations. They did the makeup and hair for my whole bridal party including the moms and everyone was raving at how great they were. Everyone looked beautiful and Denise and Leeann were so open to listening to the different wants and needs of each girl to give them the exact look they had envisioned. I would absolutely recommend Calma Salon for all of your beauty and hair needs!

    Denise is amazing! I wish I could give her 10 stars instead of just 5! She is the absolute best wedding makeup professional I have ever met! She is so sweet and listened to everything I wanted and truly made me a bombshell! My makeup was flawless! I could not have asked for a better experience! Thank you Denise!

    All the ladies were extremely pleasant and super friendly! Amanda Bolanos did my makeup & hair trial, I absolutely LOVED how flawless she made me look! I was very undecided on an updo or to wear my hair down, her expertise and honest opinion helped me! I'm so glad I chose Calma Salon!

    Denise and the ladies at Calma did a great job to make my wedding perfect for me and my bridesmaids. Denise's makeup was amazing and Liza did a great job on my updo, as well as the other stylists for my bridesmaids. They even supplied muffins and mimosas! Great start to a great day.

    Big THANK YOU to Denise at Calma Salon! She did my bridal makeup on my wedding day as well as my maid of honor and one of my bridesmaids. She did an amazing job on all of us, she also created a comfortable, relaxing atmosphere so much that I was not nervous for my nuptuals at all! I would highly recommend Calma for hair and makeup for any special occassion or event!

    I must really say that the Calma ladies really took care of me and my bridal party on my wedding day. Special thank you to Amanda for helping me throughout the process. From the minute I visited their website I knew that I wanted Calma to take care of me on my special day. As soon as you walk in you are treated with great hospitality, warmth and friendliness. I must say that these ladies are extremely talented. As the bride I had the experience of trying the following services with Amanda: keratin treatment, airbrush makeup and hair…only one word…....amazing!!!......I had a pretty large bridal party with five girls and the mother of the bride and the rest of the Calma team did a magnificent job. The makeup and updo’s were beautiful! Thank you to Denise for her flexibility with my bridal party. As long as I am still living in Rhode Island I will be their number one customer.

    My wedding was June 23, 2012. As soon as I got engaged I knew I wanted Calma to take care of all hair and makeup for me and all of my bridesmaids, mothers of the bride/groom, and flower girls. As soon as I booked with them, they were in constant contact with me to make sure everything was on schedule (they totally understand how crazy things get when planning a wedding, and they do make sure your appts are set!). Denise did my makeup trial - I brought in pictures of what I liked and she gave me her honest opinion on which ideas would look best on me. Kathy did my hair trial, and when I changed my mind last minute (I mean REALLY last minute, like....day of the wedding!) she didn't kill me!!!! Everything came out fabulous.

    I chose to have Calma "on location" at my parent's house while we were all getting ready. I would highly recommend this because as a bride you do not feel rushed at ALL and you don't worry a bit if you're going to be running late. All of the hair and makeup girls who came were amazing and were so FUN and talented.

    Things turned out perfectly, and I couldn't have asked for a better salon/spa to do the services. Right up to the day of the wedding, they ensured that everyone was taken care of which is priceless as a bride planning a wedding!

    I would recommend them to EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!

    The girls at Calma Salon did an amazing job on our hair and make up for me and my bridal party. Denise and Gianna did an amazing job on getting our makeup done, and Kathy did a fabulous job on all of our hair. We got to the salon in the morning and Denise had mimosas, coffee, fruit and snacks for us to munch on during our services. I can't thank them enough for everything they did to make my makeup and hair look perfect for the wedding!!! I would definitely recommend this salon!!

    Leeann Tingley of Calma Salon took care of my hair and my wedding party's hair for my wedding. She also did my highlights before hand. When I left the night she did my hair color (I'm a blonde!), my fiance told me I looked like a movie star. :) She did an incredible job and took a lot of time to make sure every foil was absolutely perfect.

    On my wedding day, she came to my house and did all of the wedding party updos. Each one came out perfectly! All my girls were incredibly happy with their hairstyles. Leeann did an amazing job on my hair as well. It stayed all day without even a strand out of place! She's a definite artist when it comes to hair design. Her updos are classic and unique all at the same time. Her personality is wonderful as well - she really made me that much more excited for my big day. I love her and I highly recommend her for all hair services!

    The girls at Calma Salon did an amazing job with my hair and makeup. I had a hair/makeup trial where they wrote everything down and remembered the styles I wanted. The morning of my wedding they set up mimosas and snacks for us and wasted no time in getting all of my five bridesmaids, myself and my mother beautified. They were all very friendly and easy to work with. I’d recommend Calma Salon to any bride!

    I LOVED my experience at Calma> The girls were so nice. Denise's makeup is amazing! We all looked so good. Kathy and Lyza did our hair they were excellent. These girls were very professional, but also alot of fun! I went back recently and had a facial with Denise and I am hooked for life. Great place!

    I chose to try Calma Salon for a hair and make-up trial because it was close to home and the stylists had received many positive online reviews. After experiencing my trial with Amanda Bolanos, I immediately knew I wanted her to take care of me on our wedding day. Talented, knowledgable and professional, Amanda really listened to what I wanted and made suggestions to improve my ideas. I couldn't be happier with the way I looked that day and highly recommend Amanda's services.
