    Super Talented!!

    I highly recommend Gloss Salon for anybody getting married! Jay the coordinator is super professional, responsive, and flexible! Krystal is the best hair stylist and did such a beautiful job!! I was super indecisive about my hair, at my trial I really loved my loose up-do look it was so beautiful, but the day of the wedding I decided I wanted my hair partially down; luckily Krystal had so many looks up her sleeve and her work was absolutely beautiful!! They did wonderful jobs with my bridal party, mothers and flower girls as well. You gotta go with Gloss!

    So Beautiful!

    The Gloss girls absolutely exceeded our expectations and everyone looked so beautiful! They were there and ready to go before we arrived and finished us up with time to spare. It was so great and I would highly recommend them for events in the future.

    Book them!

    So pleased with this vendor! Hired them for hair and make up for me & 8 bridesmaids - they were great. Special shout out to Krystal, who made my hair dreams come true. I have curly hair and up until 5 minutes before my turn to get my hair done as the bride, I wasn’t sure what to do with it (natural… extensions… totally done up?). Krystal somehow knew exactly what I wanted (even though I came off incredibly indecisive) and made my curly hair dreams come true - the perfect elevation of my natural hair. Seriously so grateful I had her on my big day.

    Gloss Salon and On-Location Hair and Makeup Service's reply:

    We are so pleased to hear that Krystal was able to make this last minute change for you. She is one of our styling rock stars!! We will definitely share your kind words with her and appreciate you taking the time to share this experience.

    Amazing experience!

    Brittney was the one who styled everyone’s hair for my wedding and she did such a fantastic job! She styled my hair exactly how I pictured it. Everyone loved their hairstyle and they all stayed in place throughout the day! Brittney was very professional, friendly and easy to talk too! Highly recommend her!!!

    Beautiful glam by great girls!

    Gloss did our on-site hair and makeup and it was so fun! For the trial and day of, Lindsay & Emma put so much effort into getting the exact style we wanted and making sure it would last all night. It did end up raining/very windy on our wedding day, so not everything could stay intact all night, but we still felt beautiful!

    Thank you so much for your kind words about our team and for sharing your beautiful pictures!! We are so happy you felt beautiful all night.

    Best Hair Vendor

    I never used Gloss prior to my wedding but I knew other brides that used them for their weddings & all they could do was rave about Gloss. Plus the reviews were fantastic! Krystal did our hair and I cannot praise her enough. Most of us girls had long hair, one had really short hair, and we all wanted different hair styles; Krystal made sure that everyone had everyone's hair curled, set & pinned in time. Not one girl had to "fix" their own hair after Krystal left or re-pin falling hair later in the night. As for my hair, she made me look fantastic. My hair captured my personality and made me receive countless compliments all night. I...

    Relaxing and Beautiful

    Kate and Brittany did hair and makeup for myself and my 6 bridesmaids. Of course, we all looked beautiful. But, what was even better, was the ease of working with everyone at Gloss. Bethany always answered my emails promptly, and Kate and Brittany were always open to any suggestions my bridesmaids or I had. Kate and Brittany were also great to have around on the morning of the wedding. They were fun and relaxed and added to our great vibe. I’d hire them again and again.

    Gloss Salon and On-Location Hair and Makeup Service's reply:

    Jillian- Thank you for choosing for your wedding day hair and makeup. We were so happy to be a small part of your most important day. We also really appreciate the kind words. I will make sure that I pass them on to our Kate and Brittany. Please feel free to reach out to us for all your beauty needs as we would love to see you again!!
    Stay Happy, Healthy, & Beautiful as we look forward to the future..

    Absolutely amazing

    The Gloss Salon did an outstanding job getting my bridesmaids, mom, mother in law, and myself ready for my wedding on 11/16. They are professional, talented, and so nice! I highly recommend hiring them for your special event!

    The best hair and makeup

    I booked Gloss salon for our 10/12/2019 wedding. They did not disappoint. Everyone in our group looked amazing. I was obsessed with my hair and makeup. Emma did my makeup and Tonya did my hair. I couldn't be happier with the experience. I reached out to them somewhat last minute after a trial I had didn't go exactly as I had hoped. They were able to fit us in and everyone looked and felt amazing. I attached a few photos from my photographer (and a selfie to show you my makeup). I cropped the one photo so you can see the back of my hair. If you are looking for a salon to do your hair or makeup for a special occasion, I would not hesitate to book gloss. They are amazing.

    Talented, kind people with amazing skill!

    Gloss did such an amazing job for my wedding, I can't say enough good things about them! Krystal did my hair and Emma did my makeup. They are 2 insanely talented women! They did my trial as well, which I did for my bridal shower. I got SO many compliments at my shower and my wedding!!! My hair stayed put all day (which has literally never happened for me with my thin straight hair) and my makeup looked amazing despite the heat and humidity. Krystal and Emma came on-site and they were so sweet and fun to have there that morning. They made the morning so relaxed and put my mind at ease. Thank you, Krystal and Emma! You ladies are amazing!!!

    Colleen-
    Thank you for sharing your wedding day experience with Krystal and Emma!! We are so pleased to hear that your hair stayed put and you were happy with the hair and makeup service. Thank you for all the wonderful things you said about their talent and kindness.

    Best glam team

    Gloss Salon was so great and accommodating to work with! I had a brunch wedding with a very early "getting ready" time, but Gloss assured me from the beginning that it would be no problem. Krystal (hair) and Emma (makeup) arrived before dawn and styled us all beautifully; no one had to retouch their hair and makeup all day. Plus, they were really fun to hang out with, too. Would definitely recommend!

    Thank you again for trusting Gloss with your wedding day hair and makeup!! Thank you also for sharing such kind words about your experience and our stylists Krystal and Emma. They are so happy to hear you were pleased. You look absolutely gorgeous in your photos!!

    Talented, Professional, and Punctual

    I had an absolutely amazing experience with Gloss and their artists Kate Stout and Bethany Malloy. All of my bridesmaids and my mother loved their makeup and the option to have airbrushed or normal makeup with no additional costs. Also eyelashes were included. Super talented, professional, punctual, and made us all feel like a million dollars. What more could you ask for in a makeup artist on your wedding day?

    Your feedback means the world to us. Thank you for the kind words, we are so happy that you enjoyed your experience with Gloss!!

    Liz at Gloss in Newark did an awesome job on my make up the day of my wedding. She showed up at the hotel right on time, was fast and efficient while doing make up for myself, my mom, and some of my bridesmaids. I've been to/in a few weddings and Liz did a great job making me look natural and still look great for the camera, even handling my last minute change to my lashes.

    Do yourself a favor and book Gloss Salon, you will not regret it!

    Gloss Salon was absolutely awesome to work with from start to finish. Nickie and Kate showed up right on time and quickly got to work. Nickie was super flexible when I decided to completely change my hair and make-up style from my original trial a week before the wedding. They had all of the hair and makeup done (even an extra add), well before it was time for photos. Everything was perfect and stayed that way all night. I was married on the beach and it was just a little breezy, but everyone’s hair stayed in place and looked like Nickie had just done it.

    The entire staff at Gloss were so nice, helpful and flexible. Definitely book their bridal hair/makeup team for your big day 

    Gloss Salon was absolutely a breeze to work with. From my initial phone contact I was hooked with how flexible they were. I was able to do a hair and makeup trial (separately) and Nikki knew exactly what i was looking for.

    The day of my wedding Nikki and Kate showed up early and go to work quickly. They even took on an extra person that was not planned. My hair and makeup were perfect. I made some changes from my trial and Nikki was great. They were there as long as we needed them and done in plenty of time to start photos.

    The services they provided were best that I have had professionally. I...

    I cannot say enough about the service that Gloss offered on my wedding day! When I went in for my trial run, everyone was friendly and I immediately felt at ease with Emma. On the day of, Emma came to my mom's house and stayed well into the day, offering lip gloss touch ups whenever needed, right before we did photos, and right before we left. We were all able to purchase the lip color she used on my girls and me (if we wanted). To this day, almost a year later, when people look at my photos, they ask who did my makeup and I rave about Gloss! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    Absolutely wonderful! Since I typically wear zero makeup and my current makeup collection consists of a single tube of mascara, I knew getting a professional would be money well spent.

    I made all the arrangements over e-mail and they were very responsive to all my questions. On the day of the wedding, Kate, the MUA, arrived right on time and got to work. There was three of us (bride, MOH and MOB) getting makeup and we all have different skin tones. She did a fabulous job on all of us. Tateum then did my mom's hair and by the time she was done, my Mom was looking 10 years younger. Highly recommended!

    Nickie was amazing as a stylist for my wedding day. I would advocate for a trial to be sure you get what you want and be sure to reserve in advance, because having a stylist come to you is a huge stress reliever on your wedding day.

    Jessica and Bethany from Gloss Salon were amazing! They answered all my questions and were extremely helpful during both my hair and makeup trials. On my wedding day, they were on time, personable and fun! They did my hair along with my bridesmaids, mom and future mother-in-law in record time. Everyone looked amazing and I couldn't thank them enough! I highly recommend this salon to any bride looking to have their hair and makeup done on location!

    I started wedding planning in Feb 2012 for my Oct 2012 wedding and GLOSS was the first vendor I booked!
    I corresponded with Tateum (mgr) - who was very responsive and answered all of my questions. I filled out and sent in my information form and NO deposit was needed! They also INCLUDED their travel fee in their reasonable price. Granted my venue is only 20 miles from their shop but I will still impressed that travel was included!
    I booked a hair trial a couple of months before my wedding and met Bethany, the owner. Bethany was EXTREMELY knowledgeable and we nailed my perfect updo in 2 takes. I also went back to Bethany for a complete color...

    Team Bethany & Nickie from Gloss Salon were fabulous to work with. I contacted them on short notice to do my Hair & M/U along with 9 other members of the bridal party - not only did they accommodate but did an AMAZING job creating the 1950's pin up girl styles that we all wanted to have. When Bethany & Nicole were finished with us we looked like we could have been on the cover of Vogue in 1957

    The ladies were on time and kept us on schedule for our pictures. All of our hair & makeup stayed in tact throughout the day, the wedding and right into our after party.

    It truly was fun to work with them on our wedding day!

    Gloss Salon was absolutely amazing from our original contact straight through to the wedding day. The entire staff at the salon was so easy to deal with and responded to our many e-mails right away. My daughter Pam got married this past Friday at Greenville Country Club. Having the ladies from Gloss do our hair and make up at the wedding venue was perfect. They were on time and worked non-stop to get hair done for 7 members of the bridal party and make up for 3 of us. Lauren is so talented! We all had different pictures of all different hairstyles - down, up, braided, curly and they were all PERFECT! Emma did our make-up and it was...

    Amazing experience with Gloss!

    I can’t say enough great things about working with Gloss Salon Delaware/Gloss in the City, especially Caitlyn Nurthen for hair and Kate Stout for makeup – Caitlyn did the wedding day hair for three other weddings that I was a bridesmaid in and I couldn’t imagine her not being there for mine! She always brings the best vibes for the day and makes everyone look their best. She immediately understood what I wanted at my trial and executed it perfectly on the day of. For makeup, I can’t thank Kate enough for how at ease she put me as someone who never wears make up. At the trial I gave her the smallest amount of direction and she knocked...
