Carly truly exceeded my expectations! When I approached her, I had a vague concept in mind. During our trial run, we explored a few ideas, and she skillfully incorporated all my feedback in a remarkably creative manner. Not only did she meet my requirements, but she also added her own imaginative touches that perfectly complemented my vision. The end result was beyond what I could have imagined or asked for. Carly's work was nothing short of exceptional! The girl is an artist!
She was incredibly flexible! When we decided to change the ceremony time to earlier in the day just the night before, she readily adjusted her plans to accommodate our vision. Carly arrived bright and early in the morning. Her adaptability and dedication helped make our day unforgettable. -

Cannot say enough positive things about Carly and her team! They were on time, professional, and so patient! I really appreciated how flexible they were. Unlike other wedding hair/makeup vendors, they didn't have a minimum and that was really helpful as we needed to figure out who wanted which services. I absolutely loved my wedding hair and makeup, it was just right and very natural! -

Carly is FANTASTIC. She works with a local make-up artist and it's so nice to be able to schedule both hair and make-up in one go. Carly made me feel and look beyond beautiful on my wedding day. My hair (and make-up) stayed put ALL NIGHT LONG. I received so many compliments and I 100% would recommend Carly to any future brides! -

The Pins-N-Brushes team was so easy to work with. As soon as I got engaged I knew I wanted to use them for my engagement photos, bridal trial and wedding day. The staff was so friendly and excited to be there. All of my bridesmaids and moms looked fabulous. They were very prompt with our timeline and were able to get all of us ladies ready in a timely manner. I plan on recommending them to any of my friends or family who are planning to get married in the future. -

I did 2 hair trials before the wedding because I was indecisive, but Carly was totally flexible and my hair turned out PERFECT day-of. On the morning of our wedding, the girls were ahead of schedule! Everyone loved their look, we couldn't have asked for a better team. -

I used Carly for my wedding and she did such an amazing job! I couldn't make up my mind as to what I wanted, but she was very patient with me and it turned out PERFECT! Also she did 5 bridesmaids and 2 moms- she listened to all their unique requests and made them all feel confident and beautiful. -

Carly was one of the first vendors I KNEW I had to have! I’ve been following her Instagram for awhile prior to even being engaged. As soon as my ~now~ husband proposed, I contacted Carly days later! Lucky me, she was available and provided everything I ever wanted for me and all my girls. All of us couldn’t have been happier nor felt beautiful on such a special day. I’m happy my wedding day memories will ALWAYS include Carly! -

Carly is truly amazing at what she does!!! She makes you feel like a friend rather than just another client. She helped guide me in having the perfect wedding hair every step of the way. She didn't mind the changes I made and gave me advice in selecting my hair accessories. I could not have asked for a better stylist to do my hair for a very important day. My hair held up all night long with all the dancing I did. It was everything I envisioned and she made me feel so special through the whole process. If you need a hair stylist for any occasion I HIGHLY recommend Pins-N-Brushes!!!! -

If they have your date available, book now! Carly and Lauren came to my house to do hair and make up for my wedding in December. They were everything I hoped for and more!
They arrived early and kept us on time all day. We finished early, allowing extra time for photos before we left. Everyone looked gorgeous, and I felt absolutely beautiful. One of my bridesmaids even commented that she felt more beautiful than she did on her own wedding day :)
Thank you, Lauren & Carly! -

Carly and Lauren did an AMAZING job for me and my bridesmaids hair and makeup. I truly felt so beautiful on my wedding day and I owe it to them! I wasn’t able to come in to do a trial, but Carly perfected the look I wanted on my big day. I didn’t even know my hair was capable of doing the things she did! I 100% recommend Pins-n-Brushes. -

Amanda Sent on 09/28/2020Excellent Experience with Carly and her Team!
We were lucky enough to find Pins N Brushes through a personal recommendation from a friend. From our trials to the actual wedding day, Carly and her team were so fantastic to work with! I leaned on her for her professional recommendations with my bridal look, but she was very receptive to feedback and I walked away looking and feeling like an absolute princess.
We chose to also do trials for me (bride) and my mom, which I would highly recommend! They are practicing very safe COVID procedures and we felt very comfortable in their studio and then having them in our home for our wedding day. I felt their services were very affordable and the value far exceeded the price. All guests who got hair and make up services done were thrilled. I would not hesitate to recommend Pins n Brushes to any bride to be! -

Courtney Sent on 07/17/2020Book Pins-N-Brushes ASAP
I can't recommend Carly and the Pins-N-Brushes team enough! We were one of the lucky couples that had to replan our wedding for June 6 due to all of the COVID chaos. Originally we planned for our wedding to be held at an upscale hotel in DC, but we quickly had to change course about 8 weeks before our wedding. She was one of the great vendors that I didn't want to lose through all of the wedding rework. Thankfully, Carly and team were still willing to do our hair and makeup for the wedding!!! She's super responsive, insanely flexible, and just an all-around great person! My sister and I were lucky enough to get our hair cut and colored just a couple days before the wedding and we had such a great time getting to know each other. They were on time, completely prepared (and even wore masks), and were just so considerate and made sure we were all set and had everything we needed (I think she even made sure I had eaten something haha). They were troopers for doing hair and makeup with three younger girls plus my older sister and me - they made little tweaks as requested and did it all ON TIME! I 1000% recommend...I now live in TN and will absolutely be visiting her again for a cut and just to catch up the next time I head to MD to see family. -

Caryl was super responsive, flexible, and easy to work with planning hair and makeup services for 10 people, including my bridal hair and makeup. My day of team of Lauren, Kait, Katlin, and Jen knocked it out of the park - everyone looked beautiful and we actually finished EARLY if you can believe it. All in all, great experience! -

Hair and makeup for my wedding party was flawless!! The service was beyond my expectations, and they accommodated a couple last minute (big) requests.
As the bride, I wanted to look beautiful but still look like myself for my special day and everything came out like I wanted! I'm thankful for Pin-N-Brushes for helping me in achieving my perfect wedding dream! -

Carly did my hair, my mom, sister, and sister in law's hair on my wedding day. We all have very different types/ lengths of hair and had different styles in mind. We were all so happy with how our hair turned out. Not only did our hair styles look amazing, they stayed in perfectly all night long. Carly was easy going and professional to work with. I would highly recommend her for wedding day hair styling services! -

The staff were extremely flexible with schedule. They were the perfect balance between professional and genuinely friendly that made my girls and I so relaxed during the preparation. One thing that stood out was that the bridal party got compliments throughout the night about our hair and make up! They really knew how to highlight each individual’s features with a glance. I couldn’t recommend them enough! -

Pins N Brushes gave me everything I wanted and more on my wedding day and I will recommend them to ANYONE who wants to feel and look like a queen. My wedding day was so much fun and I got so many compliments on my hair and makeup the entire day and even months later!! Starr and Katlin were exceptional and Carly is always a pleasure to work with. They managed my entire bridal party plus MOG flawlessly. They didn't skip a beat and were professional, timely and FUN! This group of ladies is BEYOND talented. They're always keeping up with the latest trends and the latest brands. They use only the best to make you feel and look your absolute BEST! I am a returning customer and always will be. THANK YOU x A MILLION! -

Polly Sent on 11/05/2019Pins-N-Brushes was amazing!
For my October wedding, Starr did our hair and Lauren did our makeup. I cannot say enough good things about them and their work! They were both so flexible and listened to what we wanted, and they brought a really positive energy to the room when we were getting ready. I was a little unsure of how I wanted to wear my hair, and Starr worked with me step by step to make sure I loved it - and I did! A lot of makeup artists make brides look a little too “fake” but Lauren is incredibly talented and my makeup looked amazing in person and in photos. Carly, the owner, was also incredible to work with. Thank you, Pins-N-Brushes! -

I did my bridal trial for our engagement shoot, and was so happy with how I looked. I went with the same hair and makeup from the trial for our wedding day. All of the bridesmaids used them as well, and we were all so impressed. They had a timeline made for us, and were so efficient. My hair and makeup were exactly what I was looking for. My sister is using them for her wedding next month and we are so excited! -

Pins-n-brushes provides hair and makeup for my wedding this past weekend. Carly was very responsive and accommodating in making sure me and my bridal party was ready on time and looked great! Starr did a variety of hairstyles for my bridesmaids and all looked amazing! Kylie was our makeup artist and everyone looked stunning with styles that photographed perfectly! I would highly recommend. -

Rebecca Sent on 02/24/2019Starr and Carly were great
I had a great experience working with Carly and Starr. Starr was my primary stylist, while Carly handled all the logistics and provided some general support during my trials since Starr is more junior. Together, they made sure that I looked and felt beautiful on our big day.
At my first trial, I loved how my hair looked but it fell out pretty quickly after I left the trial (I have super fine/soft/slippery hair). I reached out to Starr and Carly to see if we could try again, and they didn't hesitate to book a second trial and think through how to get the look I wanted and keep it secure all night. On the day off, Starr paused periodically to check in with me and give me opportunities to look at her progress and offer feedback so that we got my style just right. She was efficient with the bridesmaids but still made sure everyone looked great--we even ended up being able to squeeze in one bridesmaid who didn't originally plan to have her hair done.
From my experience, the Pins-N-Brushes team really excels at styles with texture and volume, so if you're looking for something super sleek they might not be the best fit for you! But if you love piecey updos, pretty waves, and boho braids, check Carly and her team out. -

Carly was great throughout the entire process - from answering my many questions before booking, completing the trial, and the actual wedding - everything was amazing. She was flexible with scheduling and re-arranging services for the wedding. The pricing was also more than fair for what it seems like the average around Baltimore is. All of the girls who got hair & make-up with Carly & Lauren looked amazing. Even our venue coordinator commented on how well everyone's hair and make-up held up throughout the night. I would 100% book Pins & Brushes again! -
