About

On WeddingWire since 2013

Who Are We
Founded by Kimberly, Poetically Brushed is a team of professional Hair and Makeup stylists working with brides and their parties. We are based in the Hagerstown and Frederick area and travel onsite throughout the Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, and DC area. Services that we provide include airbrush and traditional makeup, with false lashes included with both; and blow outs, and of course updo styling. Having you feel confident and completely beautiful as yourself is our main goal! It would be our pleasure to work with you, we do not take it lightly at all!

What Does A Wedding Day Look Like?
All stylists will show up 15 minutes before the scheduled time to set up. We ask for a well lit area with table space and seats. You will be provided with a schedule for all the contracted services to ensure a smooth day! Once all services have been completed your stylists will head on out.

Trial Runs
We recommend that you set up a trial run 2-4 months before the wedding! If you would like to set up a trial before booking that is not a problem! You will want to book a trial run immediately. Please keep in mind we are working with brides on Saturdays; a trial run may need to be planned during a week day depending on the season. Trial runs generally takes two hours. Feel free to bring a buddy, hair accessories, or any jewelry to your trial! We ask you have guided ideas in mind; coming to a trial run not knowing what you are envisioning for your wedding day will not set us up for success.

Winter Elopement Hair/Makeup

Kim was fabulous to work with! She made myself and my step-daughters feel so beautiful on the big day! Kim listened to everything I explained that I wanted, even when I didn’t know how to describe what I wanted! We worked together through communication & pictures & arrived at the perfect balance of simple & elegant. Kim is so talented & Im so thankful that I learned about her services when I was selecting wedding vendors for our elopement!

A dream to work with

Kim and her team were PHENOMENAL! She worked with me as the bride to perfect my hair and makeup, and made me feel SO stunning. It rained on our wedding day, but Kim worked her magic and my hair and makeup lasted all night long. She was so responsive and easy to work with as well.
