    Absolutely wonderful!!

    WINK was wonderful to work with and I'm so happy I chose them for our wedding day! Erik, Cammy and Krystal are so incredibly talented and really fun to be around. They made getting ready really fun for me and my bridesmaids.

    Amazing experience!

    I had an amazing experience working with WINK for me and my bridesmaid's hair and make up! They were extremely professional and easy to work with. They listened to what I like and made sure it turned out exactly how I wanted! It looked amazing! I highly recommend Theresa, Cammy, and Ashley L.!!

    Professional & Amazing

    WINK was so wonderful to work with for our wedding. They were very communicative, professional, and our hair person, Theresa, was amazing. Not only was she fantastic at doing hair- she did awesome at my bridal hair trial and on the wedding day- but she was able to adapt on the day of when there were some complications with my mom. Theresa also did great with the different lengths and hair textures of me and my bridesmaids. We all looked great, and my hair stayed up and looked great all through the night- even after dancing the night away!

    Hire them!!

    I hired WINK for my wedding hair and makeup and cannot recommend them enough! Prior to my wedding, I completed a trial and felt very comfortable and pampered. I worked with Eric for my hair and Krystal for my makeup and they made sure to address all my questions and create the vision that I wanted. On the day of my wedding, they were so much fun to get ready with and helped keep the energy up in the bridal suite. My mother and bridesmaids all agreed that they were truly our best vendors of the day! My hair and makeup was perfect and lasted throughout the rain and dancing - they even provided me with a small touch up kit and tips for fixing my hair if needed. My girls all looked amazing and felt so beautiful. If you are looking for a HMU team you definitely need to hire them!

    Absolutely Incredible!

    When I booked with them I had also scheduled a trial (must do!) Ihad the trial done for my engagement photos and when I left I was honestly not happy with it. I ended up fixing it at my house before the photoshoot - BUT I reached out to them and expressed my concerns. They were very professional and responsive, my wedding day arrived and we got to work with Krystal (cannot say enough good things about how incredibly talented and fun she was to work with). She arrived on time and got to work immediately, all the women looked so stunning, she was able to accommodate all of their requests. She nailed my looked I was over the moon happy with how it turned out. I would hire this company every time and would definitely request Krystal!

    Great experience!!

    The Wink team was amazing to work with from start to finish. They were super responsive regarding all of my questions via email and incredibly kind and helpful. My trial was a great experience and I loved working with Erik and Krystal. On my wedding day, they took any changes I asked for into account and made me look and feel wonderful on my big day! I felt like myself but fancy which was exactly what I hoped for. They did hair for my bridal party and my mom and they all looked wonderful as well. Not only did we all feel and look great, we had a great time with Krystal and Erik and they made it feel fun and relaxing for us! Thanks so much Wink!

    WINK hair + makeup's reply:

    Kelsey, thank you so much for trusting us on your wedding day. You were a joy to work with from day 1. You and your party were so welcoming and made us feel like we were part of the group. :)

    WINK is Amazing!

    Krystal, Erik, Nicolette and Margo are amazingly talented and some of the nicest people you will ever meet! My daughter and her 7 bridesmaids enjoyed a morning of glamour and laughs with the Wink team. Krystal and Erik did my daughter’s hair and makeup for her trial, bridals and wedding day! She was breathtaking every time, but absolute perfection on the wedding day! WInk’s timeline was perfect with time left for touch ups! Everyone looked so lovely! Consider yourself blessed to work with the WINK team!

    Absolute Best Experience

    Wink was probably one of my favorite vendors to work with. I absolutely adored Kristi. I was very nervous about what my hair and makeup would look like, so I also got a HMU trial.. and it was so worth it. All of my fears and nerves was laid to rest. On the day of the wedding, our two stylists were absolutely amazing - they were a blast to chat to, but they really made my bridesmaids and I look amazing. My hair was a low bun with braid updo kind of thing and I am still obsessed with it. I 100% recommend Wink. They are professional and know what they are doing.

    Best team ever!!

    I couldn’t say more positive things about Wink’s team. Professional, detail-oriented, fun and vibrant team that goes above and beyond to make you feel as beautiful as ever for your wedding day. They got 9 ladies hair and makeup done in less than 4 hours for my Sunday brunch wedding!!! Not to mention they gave me the best of both worlds by having my hair half up for the ceremony and photos then quickly throwing it up for my outdoor reception!!! AND my extensions were too long that I sort of started to freak out that my fiancé would think it was out of my character and they cut them last minute for me quickly before walking down the aisle!! WHATTT!! I was shocked at their service and I have truly never felt so beautiful. Thank you so much Wink team! You were such a huge part of our day and I’m so grateful for y’all!! I will be using them for every hair and makeup need no question!!

    Best HMU!!!!!

    From start to finish for my wedding, Krystal and Kristi were amazing. They nailed all of my bridesmaids' wants for hair and makeup, and made me look awesome. Their skills are out of this world, I can only say the best things about them. Cannot recommend enough, if you want to look amazing for your wedding definitely have them support you!

    Absolutely Amazing!

    I can’t say enough good things about WINK Hair and Makeup! Kristi and Krystal were both so much fun throughout the process. I went to the studio for a bridal hair and makeup trial and then they came to the venue to do hair and makeup for me and my three bridesmaids. During both interactions they were so helpful and listened to my vision for hair and makeup and made it come to life. The hair was just like the picture I showed and the makeup was so natural and beautiful. I was so happy with everything they did for me and my bridesmaids. They also were on-time and communicative. From the start they were happy to help with any questions I had, even when I had to ask for multiple estimates before signing. They were absolutely wonderful and I’m so glad that I got to spend my wedding morning with my bridesmaids and with them – they truly made everything more relaxed and enjoyable!

    Best HMU Experience ever!

    The team at WINK was amazing to work with from start to finish. I hired them before the pandemic began and they were responsive, flexible and incredibly professional throughout my wedding planning (and replanning) journey. Theresa and Cammy did an amazing job on hair and makeup for me and everyone in my bridal party! All of my bridesmaids commented that it was the best hair and makeup they'd ever gotten. They were also so efficient and perfectly timed. I love working with WINK and highly recommend them for your wedding or any other event where you can work with them!

    I felt like a princess!

    WINK hair + makeup did an amazing job for my bridal portraits and wedding. Kristi was great to work with and was very responsive when I had questions and when a couple of issues arose with day of scheduling with my bridesmaids. During my trial hair and makeup session Kristi was helpful in suggesting a makeup look that would be complementary. This was much appreciated with my limited knowledge of makeup. The day of the wedding Kristi and her team had my bridesmaids and mother looking gorgeous and I truly felt like a princess once my hair and makeup was done and I got into my dress. Thank you WINK hair + makeup for making my wedding day even more beautiful!

    WINK hair + makeup's reply:

    Anna, I am so happy that you felt so beautiful on your wedding day! You are the sweetest soul and we are so incredibly thankful that we had the opportunity to share your wedding day with you. I hope our paths cross again in the future! xx

    Awesome, Awesome, Awesome

    I hired the WINK Team to do hair and makeup for my bridal party. Not only did they do an amazing job, they did it in a tiny hotel room in record time! There are so many things to worry about on your wedding day but with this team, hair and makeup is not one of them. They were punctual, professional and the life of the party! All of the girls looked amazing and we had a blast getting ready with them. From the first few emails to final touches, the whole experience was fantastic. Thank you, WINK Team!

    WINK hair + makeup's reply:

    Awe! You are so sweet and we are so happy to hear that you had such a wonderful experience! Erik, Cammy and Krystal adored you and your bridal party. Congratulations on your new last name and we hope to have an excuse to work with you again in the future!

    Wink is amazing!

    I cannot recommend WINK highly enough! I had the absolute pleasure of having Krystal as our makeup artist the day of my wedding and Teresa working on our hair. They were both so amazing! Each of them truly cared about making sure that myself (the bride) and my bridesmaids/family really liked how we looked, even making changes after completing hair styles (moving a braid, adding more eyeshadow, etc.). They were punctual and all of our services finished ahead of schedule! Not to mention, they were both a joy to work with, so kind and encouraging! I had an updo and my hair stayed perfectly in place all night (even with hours of dancing) and my makeup still looked great at the end of the night (even in North Carolina July heat!). I truly cannot recommend WINK enough. Thank you Krystal and Teresa for helping me to look and feel so beautiful on my wedding day!!

    AMAZING Hair and Makeup Team!

    Kristi and the entire WINK team were absolutely AMAZING! They did my hair and makeup for my bridal portraits and every little detail turned out perfect! They were so responsive to emails and had everything ready when I came in for my trial! My wedding day hair and makeup looked exactly like I had imagined and they really took the time to research and make sure I got the wedding look I was working for! The day of the wedding they were there early to set up, listened to watch each of the bridesmaids wanted and made everybody feel so comfortable! I had 6 bridesmaid and they did an amazing job on everybody in a time crunch too! I would definitely recommend the WINK team and I'm so glad they were my hair and makeup team for our wedding :)

    Kristi & Krystal are awesome!!!

    Kristi & Krystal did the hair and makeup for our wedding on 11-15-20. They did 5 bridesmaids, my mother, and MIL. Having them at the venue felt like two additions to the bridal party. They are professional and personable.

    As someone that doesn’t wear a lot of makeup, Kristi listened to all of my concerns and did a fantastic job! (For both the trial and the wedding!) I was so happy with my look, as we’re all the ladies! I’m so happy we had Kristi and Krystal there to make everyone look beautiful on our wedding day. Thank you WINK team for being awesome!

    Wink is wonderful!

    WINK was a dream to work with on our wedding day. The team that came to do hair and makeup was awesome. They were very professional and did a great job making everyone feel safe during COVID times. This was one of the few weddings I have been to where everything seemed to get done on time, if not a little bit ahead. They were super efficient and brought out the best side of everyone. They did a great job matching styles that girls showed on their phones but they were also able to find the perfect look for the girls who say “I don’t know what I want”. Our whole bridal crew was feeling fierce on our wedding day thanks to our WINK team. I highly recommend using them on your wedding day!

    A wonderful experience with Kristi!

    I had a great experience with Kristi for my October 2020 wedding! I came to the bridal trial with about five completely different styles that I liked, but didn't have a vision of exactly what I wanted. Between the pictures and the "vibe" that I was going for, Kristi was able to create some ART! It was a beautiful take on all the little elements that I loved from other hairstyles, but made it unique to me.

    On top of her talent, Kristi is the nicest person! She was so easy to talk to and had a very calming presence on wedding day. My bridesmaids/MOG hair looked great! My hair held up after a hot day, photos, and lots of dancing. I would recommend Wink!

    WINK hair + makeup's reply:

    Oh my goodness, you are so kind! I absolutely loved working with you for your wedding and am so happy you loved the outcome as much as I did.

    Highly recommend!

    I chose Wink for our wedding because I had gotten hair and makeup from them as a bridesmaid for a friend's wedding. They are incredible! As someone who is picky and critical when other people do my hair and makeup, I have never found anything to change when Wink is in charge. They are able to do hair and makeup in a way that is not overdone, looks completely tasteful and tailored to you, and STAYS! Even in hot NC summers, their hair and makeup holds up throughout the wedding day. I also appreciate Wink as they stick to schedule, allowing the wedding day timeline to go as planned. Wink allowed me and my bridesmaids to feel beautiful and confident, and have a wonderful getting ready experience!

    Grace, thank you so much for your kind words! Krystal, Theresa and Erik absolutely loved working with you and your sweet bridal party. We are so happy that you had such a wonderful experience with us

    Dream Team

    WINK stepped up above and beyond what I ever expected when my wedding was postponed and then completely restructured due to COVID. In addition to rescheduling to our new date without hesitation, they added an extra stylist to accommodate the additional time they’d need between girls to sanitize and made my wedding feel so normal despite everything crazy going on. Everyone in my bridal party looked absolutely stunning and I couldn’t have been happier with the results.

    WINK hair + makeup's reply:

    Thank you so much Emily! We loved working with you and could not have asked for a more amazing bride during everything that is going on. You and your family and friends were so sweet and welcoming to our team. Congratulations!

    Wonderful! You should hire them.

    I highly recommend working with Wink for your wedding day! My wedding party, mother, and I all really adored our hair and makeup done by Wink. We all felt very beautiful and had a lot of fun getting our hair and makeup done. Kristal and Kristi made us all feel very comfortable and kept a calm head throughout the wedding day. I adored working with them and they made me feel great, even though I'm someone who wears makeup infrequently.

    Perfect choice for our wedding!

    Kristi and Krystal did an amazing job for our wedding! They were extremely responsive, flexible, professional, and FUN. They are also so kind and great at making you feel comfortable! During the trial, they asked plenty of questions about my preferences to ensure that I was happy with the final look. The day of the wedding, my look was exactly what I wanted and expected. They were also a very calming presence, which was much appreciated! Kristi and Krystal ensured that we had a really relaxing morning, chatting and listening to music. We had a large bridal party, and they truly individualized each look to flatter the person. They also got everyone finished on time. I would definitely recommend them for your wedding or event!

    Wedding hair and makeup

    I cannot say enough good things about my recent experience using Wink hair + makeup. I am so thankful for their quick response to my last minute inquiry. I worked with Maritza and Janna and I was thrilled with the outcome. I wanted a very natural look for my makeup and Maritza delivered. My makeup stayed all night. Janna did a great job with my hair, even better than I imagined. Thank you again!

    Love these women!

    These group of girls are not only so talented but they are SO down to earth and sweet! I had my trial with Sam (hair) and Maritza (makeup). At first I didn't convey what I truly wanted so I did a second hair trial and it was spot on! They were so understanding and they really listened to me and wanted to make sure everything was how I envisioned it. And they delivered to the max. On top of that all of my bridesmaids loved their hair and make up too! Everyone looked stunning. I will let the photos speak for themselves. Go with Wink, you will be so glad you did!!
