    Great Hair Service from a local small business provider.

    Amanda's hair team did great work. My wife loved the work done on her hair. She loved it so much that she would recommend her for any wedding work you want done. They are two moms who found a niche and they are good at their craft. They came to the site and did the work on site. This is a great option for those who want to support local business people.

    Amanda and Jenn were wonderful! Our hair and makeup turned out perfectly and nobody had any problems with it staying for the entire day. We highly recommend them! Kristen was also great with the logistics and planning.

    Allison was absolutely wonderful to work with on my wedding day! She came on site and did makeup for everyone in our bridal party. She has such an awesome personality, and her makeup artistry is incredible! Not only did everyone's makeup look great, we all had a great time with her and felt at ease on a very stressful day. I would highly recommend Allison and GoGo Gorgeous in the future!

    Let me start by saying that it is hard to find affordable makeup artists who will travel to your location! GoGo Gorgeous provided hair and makeup services for my spring wedding. From the start, I worked with Kristen who was extremely helpful. I was so excited that I found this awesome group of girls for my special day!

    Amanda did the girls makeup for the day and did an AMAZING job! My makeup lasted all night (even with a few tears!)

    Lauren did everyone's hair, she was very fast and did an awesome job!!

    I would definitely recommend these ladies for your wedding day!

    Amanda of Gogo Gorgeous was my makeup artist for my wedding. I have to say that I was extremely pleased I decided to have her apply my makeup. I normally do not wear any makeup at all, so I was slightly apprehensive about wearing it at my wedding. However, Amanda applied exactly what I liked in a trial run prior to my wedding day to ensure I would love my look. She listened to what I wanted and enhanced my natural look to be flawless for pictures with makeup that looked as good at the end of the night as it did when she applied it nearly 12 hours earlier! Even if you are not normally a makeup kind of girl, Gogo Gorgeous Makeup Artistry can provide you with the perfect look for your wedding day and all your pictures.

    Kristen is fantastic, I could not recommend her more! She was amazing for both the trial and for my wedding day, traveling almost two hours to do my makeup in my home. She used colors and techniques that perfectly complimented my skin and features, and made me look and feel so incredibly beautiful for such an important day in my life. She has an amazing eye, fabulous skills, and is insanely nice to boot! 100% recommend Kristen to anyone who wants to look stunning on their wedding day.

    I recommend every Bride within reasonable driving distance to choose Kristen at GoGoGorgeous for your wedding day. Even if you aren't sure if you want to hire a make-up artist, DO IT. You will be so glad that you did.
    Kristin did a wonderful job at the trial. On the morning of the wedding I woke up to discover a bride's worst nightmare-- a pimple that formed overnight smack dab on my face. You would not believe how glad I was to have Kristen doing my make-up that morning. She made me look amazing and the potential crisis was averted.
    I had a lot of bridesmaids, whom were split right down the middle on who wanted to invest in make-up and who did not. After the wedding was over and we were looking at the photographs from the day the girls who didn't have theirs done told me they were really sorry they hadn't.
    My husband cried big alligator tears when he saw me for the first time, and we both cried during the ceremony. My make-up didn't budge even with the tears and I am certain Kristen's work contributed to such a strong response from my husband. I will cherish those photos forever.
    Thanks, Kristen

    Kristen was great - she did an amazing job with my makeup! When she was finished I felt beautiful and couldnt have looked better for my big day. Kristen also drove to my venue to do my makeup, which was awesome. I am so glad that I found GoGo Gorgeous, and would highly recommend them to other brides!

    Kirsten is fantastic. Me and 2 of my bridesmaids got our makeup done in our hotel suite. The price is very reasonable. I had a trial with Kristen and she definitely knows makeup! She made me look exactly how I had pictured for my wedding day. She was also very professional and even didn't mind when we were running behind a little time wise. She was very prompt at responding to e mails and the pricing is very reasonable. I have already recommended Kristen to friends. She is professional and very sweet, I definitely recommend her!

    Kristen worked with me on my hair and makeup.. She was SO flexible and only wanted me to feel beautiful. That she did! I have never felt so beautiful in my life. She is amazing. She was professional, down to earth and friendly. We were truly blessed to have found so many good people to help make our day amazing. My wedding day she make me look like a princess. Kristen truly saved me life on my wedding day. I am not a person who wears a lot of make up and she transformed me into a beautiful, confident bride.

    My makeup on my wedding day was perfect and my bridesmaids looked great. We even had some time left over for a couple other girls to get their makeup done too. I highly recommend Kristen with GoGoGorgeous!!! As someone who isn't use to wearing a lot of makeup, Kristen spent a lot of time with me during my trail run to make sure I was happy with everything. Thanks so much to Kristen for making me feel beautiful on my wedding day!

    Kristin of GoGo is great a fitting you with your best personal hair and makeup stylists for your big day!
    There prices were reasonable and they were responsive with scheduling and time.
    I could not love my hair and makeup more! Melissa (makeup) and Chonda (hair) were great! I loved my consultation with them. It was like we were old friends. They were on time on the wedding day and even got us ready on time (i have been in plenty of weddings that that did not happen). They worked great together and made my entire wedding party feel at home. My maid of honor was up the entire night before with her baby and texted me the morning of the wedding that she hoped they could work a miracle! They did and she looked beautiful!!! They worked with my mother-in-law and I translating back and forth her desires for her makeup and hair! Everyone looked amazing! Thank you Melissa and Chonda and GoGo! Would definitely recommend! I have never felt so beautiful in my life! LOVED THEM!

    Kristin was my contact since the beginning and she was also my makeup artist. Another girl did my hair and I wish I remembered her name. =) Both of them did a beautiful job with everything. I look gorgeous on my wedding day. The makeup lasted all day. My wedding was outside and the temp was 92 and humid. Everyone was sweating and I never looked shiny at all. =) So worth the money.. Great job guys!!!!!

    I really enjoyed working with this company. I believe that the makeup artist and hair stylist were very in touch with what I wanted and worked hard to make sure that I and the rest of my bridal party were satisfied. It was a relief coming to them and having them be so flexible since I was having a very hard time booking my hair and makeup with a local salon. It was also AWESOME not having to go anywhere the morning of the wedding since they came to my home. I loved my hair and makeup and both still looked great even after hours of dancing and some cake smashing. The only complaint I have is that you have to pay a deposit to book them and that does not go towards the services. That is why I took away on the value. Otherwise, they are a great company.

    Amanda from GoGo Gorgeous was the makeup artist for my September wedding on Lake Anna in Virginia. I was given the name of GGG from a bride who used the same private home venue as I did. Initially I had a bit of a hard time contacting GGG and I was starting to panic because my event was fast approaching and everyone seemed to be booked already. It turns out there was an unexpected family emergency that left Amanda off the grid for several days. It's unlikely this would happen again but if it did I would hope that the unaffected business partner would field the calls/emails for the absent one.
    After I did get in touch with Amanda she communicated clearly and quickly which is a huge relief for any bride! My mom and I had a "test run" at her home and loved what we saw. We looked great! Amanda was so sweet and pleasant to work with. She was punctual and professional on my wedding day, was a calming presence, and did a great job on my diverse bridal party. I had various races and ages, girls who hate make up, and girls who love it. Amanda made each individual look gorgeous and FEEL gorgeous. I initially thought the pricing seemed a little high but after obtaining more quotes it seemed to be in the standard range. It was certainly worth it to receive personalized care and a great finished product. The make up looks FANTASTIC in my photos :)
    I would definitely recommend GGG to other brides!

    Kristen was very sweet and does a great job with makeup. I was an out of town bride and she kindly let me come to her house for my trial. She did a wonderful job with not only my makeup, but my bridal party's as well. That being said, I don't think I could recommend GoGoGorgeous to other brides.

    Communication through the whole process was a bit spotty and I had to follow up each email, sometimes multiple times before getting a response. Additionally, I was told that my hair stylist was changed 3 different times, which seemed a bit sketchy. I also didn't appreciate not having the option of actually choosing my hair stylist. During the trials, I wasn't given a full look. Not sure if this is normal or not, but I found it kind of strange. I.E., primer and setters weren't used, my hair wasn't finished, and I was told that it would all just be fixed for the day of the wedding.

    Shonda, who ended up doing my hair was very nice and my hair came out okay, but not exactly what I wanted. I kept asking for more volume and still ended up with fairly flat hair.

    The most upsetting part to me was their lack of professionalism with timing. I had to pay extra money for them to start before 8am, to ensure that we would be done by 11:30. After paying extra, they showed up 20 mins late, and finished services almost 40 mins late. I had to leave them to gather their things and lock my hotel room, with all my personal belongings, because we were running so late. Because of this, we were 40 mins late to my wedding venue. I had almost no time to get dressed and it really took away so much of the precious time getting ready with my girls and mom, and we lost a lot of photo opportunities. My ceremony started 30 minutes late due to all this.

    Looking back, the only thing I regret from my wedding was how rushed we were because of their tardiness, which as I said is really disappointing since I paid extra money to avoid this.

    GoGo Gorgeous Makeup Artistry's reply:

    First, we are incredibly sorry you feel this way. To be honest we shocked to hear all of this and very confused. We loved working with you, and were not aware of any of these concerns! We carefully combed through our emails & will address all your concerns. Correspondence: we let all of our clients know our scheduling coordinator would be taking maternity leave and email correspondence would be limited- if immediate assistance was needed we could be reached by phone. Consults: we don't use primers/setting sprays for the purpose of making changes easily as we are perfecting your bridal look. We would have worked together until you loved your hair on your wedding day, we had no idea!! Tardiness: We sent a text at 7:27am to let you know we were on premise and parking. There were a few unforeseen setbacks with that, we do apologize. Finishing late: See our recommendation as a reminder: "we will have to start makeup at 7:15am if all of you need to be ready firmly at noon. We charge extra for any service start times earlier than 8am. We allow 45 mins per appt & 1 hour for the bride, there are times we run early and dont require the exact amount of time allotted. Other times, we use it all to the very last minute! You just never know so we dont like to take any chances w/ wedding days!" Your response "Sheri & Melanie don't wear much makeup and I know they won't want a very detailed look. I have a time buffer built into our travel time to the venue so even if we go over a little bit, it shouldn't be a problem" Later you moved ready time to 1130am, but still decided to cut away 30 mins of the original time recommended. The day of, when mentioning being concerned with timing, we were told not to worry, we had until noon. It was to our knowledge that you all left as the scheduled limo arrived. We weren't made aware of any concerns about this on the day of. We hope these issues can be resolved, we have also reached out to you privately to come to a resolution.
