I'm not one to write reviews often, but I'm hoping this information will be helpful to others, as it would have been more helpful for myself. The whole vibe the morning of my wedding was affected when Anne arrived due to her combativeness with services, and general air of arrogance. I think she carries this personality because she's one of the few hair and make up professionals who will travel/do elopements, and I think that has gone a bit to her head. I booked Anne for my wedding on Whidbey Island at my grandmothers home last week, not because her work was stunning, but because it looked good enough, she was one of the few choices willing to travel to the island, and both hair and make up could be done. During the trial, she had an interesting personality, but seemed to warm up as the session went on even though she had a rough around the edge vibe. During the trial she said the things she would do differently come wedding day, which I agreed with and felt good about. Flash forward to wedding day: Anne and her partner were late because they "had to stop to get Whidbey bagels", then during their set up, we had to ask them to move their car due to a planning issue on our end, to which she replied to my family member that she's on a time schedule and that's going to cut into the time. Um ma'am, you were late to begin with, moving your car isn't going to be the setback. Next up, she did my mom's hair. Now, my mom had extensions for Anne to work with that (unnoticed by me) were not the same color as my mom's hair. Now I get that Anne's job is to basically do what she is being asked by her clients, but don't you think after being in the industry so long she would have a nice way to say, these are not your hair color and I don't think these are going to work out? (Especially since she didn't seem to have any issues voicing her thoughts about styles as the morning went on). Well she didn't do anything like that, instead she did what my mom asked, and when my mom left the chair, her hair looked like shit. Like, as a professional, I don't know how she looked at it and thought, that's so beautiful and I'm really proud of that. After discussing this with her she said, "Well we're still doing touch ups before we leave." Were you really? Because wouldn't you have said that as my mom got up, that "We'll come back to it later"?? She only said that once she was called out, and it happened again with my hair. She did not bring the extra thing to put in my bun to make it look thicker, as she said she would during the trial, and the way she worked my layers into my hair during the trial was nothing like what she did on my wedding day. Now, my hairstylist at home did cut layers to frame my face that were shorter than expected and during the trial, but at one point towards the end of my hair, she asked what I thought, and when I told her I didn't like my layers in the front, she messed with them in ways I also didn't like, then told me she wasn't finished and I should "trust the process". Wouldn't it have made more sense to say "What do you think about this so far? It's not quite finished, but I want your input". Every time my mom or I asked about something we didn't love that she did, her response was always "Well..." or "So..." and then she'd explain why she wasn't able to do something or that's why she was doing it a certain way. Where were all these opinions during my moms hair fiasco? The problem is that we paid this woman a lot of money, and instead of doing that we wanted, she would combat us and tell us why she couldn't. After she left, I fixed my mom's hair, even though I paid this woman over $1,000 to provide this service. By the time my make up came around, I told her some of the changes and she did ok with that, but again, was combative and a little insulting. I told her I had gotten more tan since the trial so I wanted to make sure everything blended well and she said "You aren't that tan." Now I know I wasn't a bronzed goddess, but have you ever worked with a bride before? Maybe don't insult her hours before her wedding when you've (again) been paid a lot of money to provide a service on a day a bride doesn't need to hear insults. With all this being said, everything came out OK, pictures looked great, but what an icky couple hours. I wouldn't wish that on any other bride. The icing on the personality cake was when my friend asked her for one small clear elastic, if she had one to spare, to which she replied to my friend with a gallon of attitude, "I just packed up all my hair stuff." God forbid you grab a clear elastic out of your bag! Maybe she was just having a bad day, but I don't need to deal with someone's bad day on my special day. read more

I absolutely recommend Anne Timss! I booked Anne & Jess very last minute for my shotgun wedding and right from the jump Anne was such a dream to work with! Her communication with us was strong and prompt from the beginning, which made us feel that much more confident about booking her. Their prices are standard, but what really hooked me in was that unlike many other stylists the hair & makeup trial cost is included. They have a warmth to them that put me at ease right away. During our trial session I shared some initial inspo photos and then just trusted their judgement and experience and let them do their thing. Every step of the experience they verbalize what they were doing, asked if I liked it and felt comfortable with the looks and we're very receptive to feedback. On the day of our wedding the whole team was amazing. On time, very professional, and very timely with their work. Both ladies were incredibly accommodating and super sweet! My husband couldn't make it to the hotel as we had planned since he had extra things to set up at our venue, so Jessica ended up packing it all up and meeting him at the site to do his hair and touch up his face. She even threw in a quick touch up for our daughter (hair, cheeks and lip). I was so touched by her going the extra mile. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone. They helped my special day be stress free. read more

Annnnnnne. Where have you been my whole life?! Your makeup class last night made me feel confident in my ability to create photo worthy brows. After you showed me how to cover those under eye mom circles-- I felt like I was giving off the look of a well rested tween. And tight lining?! How did I never know about this. You are clearly the top of your industry and an overall fun/hilarious lady to learn from. Thank you for transforming me into the confident/cool mama I always dreamed of being. read more

Anne and her team were amazing for our Issaquah/Mt Si wedding! Anne made my mom and I feel so welcome and comfortable at the hair/makeup trial and she was very responsive to my ideas and questions leading up to the big day. Wedding morning her and her team arrived on time and with quite the set up of supplies. They made use of the hotel suite well and kept to our schedule of 9 people well. Every one of my bridesmaids and moms loved their hair and makeup. I absolutely LOVED my makeup...a more natural but glowing look...and my long curled extensions. The whole look lasted all night long...even in 96 degree temps! We are all so happy to have chosen Anne and her team and have nothing but great feedback to pass on! read more

Anne, Kirsten, and Beth were wonderful to work with for my wedding. Anne was very responsive to questions leading up to my wedding and even recommended some beauty products to help me get photo perfect skin. I loved having my trial at Damn Fine Studios, it's such a cute little space and Kirsten and Beth made me feel so special. On the day of the wedding, Kirsten and Beth created a look that was somehow even better than the trial! I loved my romantic half back hairstyle. I don't usually wear a lot of makeup, but Beth did an incredible job creating a romantic and natural look for me. I looked like myself, but elevated. When my husband saw me during the first look, he said I looked like a ravishing goddess and that's truly how I felt! The hair and makeup lasted all day through the heat and endless dancing. It was perfect! read more

Anne and her team came highly recommended but she also has become a friendly face as I had my makeup and hair done for my sisters wedding in 2017 and another friends wedding is 2020. She is friendly, quick to respond, efficient, and reliable. The makeup is flawless & the lashes are mt favorite! With how the year has been, she unfortunately got Covid but without any hesitation, she had her team fill in who did equally a great job! She had backup help immediately and knew how to troubleshoot. I couldn't imagine any other team for my wedding! It was perfect and my hair & makeup stayed until the next morning! read more

I cannot recommend Anne and her team enough. We got married in Friday Harbor in July 2021, which can be a challenge for some vendors given the travel logistics. But not for Anne. She made the entire process so easy, she understood the ferries and knew where to stay. She was a dream to work with and she is so much fun! As for my hair and makeup, it was everything I could have imagined. I knew from the trial I would love it, but it was somehow even better on my wedding day. My mom, mother-in-law, and my four bridesmaids also loved their hair and makeup. Both my mom and mother-in-law were a bit nervous about having their makeup done, but they were so impressed with how it turned out. I also hired Anne to do my makeup and hair for my headshot on my firm's website. She did the perfect "Pacific Northwest Professional" and it is the first work photo I have ever loved. Do not think twice about hiring Anne! read more

We had a great experience with Anne and her gals. We booked super last minute. She was quick to respond. They did great work and would love to hire them again! read more

Anne is my wedding make up hero! All my recommendations for hair and makeup weren't panning out and it was getting down to the wire to book for my New Year's Eve 2018 wedding. I stumbled across Anne and immediately loved her look. The trial run was fun but I didn't quite explain what I wanted. After talking through it, Anne read my mind and TOTALLY KILLED the exact look I wanted for my special day - a Hollywood glam NYE! Not only did she rock my look but her and her assistant completed hair and makeup for 5 bridesmaids as well as my mother and all loved their own looks. Book Anne you'll won't regret it! read more

How am I the first person to leave a review??? Anne is INCREDIBLE! I was fortunate enough to be referred to her through a friend. I needed a make-up artist/hairstylist/magician to fix me up for my wedding day, and she totally delivered! We did trial hair/make-up a couple weeks beforehand (which I strongly recommend). I'm normally a minimal make-up/easy hair person, and she got me all fixed up. I looked GREAT, yet very natural. Like me, only with a little effort put into it... I wanted to be a bit more pumped up for the wedding day (go big or go home), and she took my feedback perfectly. My hair was flow-y and beautiful, yet withstood the weather of the first day of a Seattle windstorm--even through (covered) outdoor pictures and the many events that transpired that day. I received MANY compliments, and they're thanks to Anne and her handiwork! Besides that, she's just a joy to work with. She's a professional who is clearly knowledgeable about what she does and enjoys her job, but besides that, she's just fun and super easy to talk to. I was stressed out that morning, and being with her for 90 minutes completely reset me. She is an awesome person to be around. When it's your turn to get dolled up, go with Anne. You will be glad you did! read more

Anne did my makeup for my elopement in October and she absolutely knocked it out of the park. I'm a pretty nervous/sweaty person and everything looked flawless five hours after application during our photos! Not only is she just an awesome person to chat with, but she really followed my inspiration photos. I was so thrilled with both my hair and makeup--can't recommend Anne enough! read more

Hands down the BEST MAKEUP EXPERIENCE PERIOD. I've probably gotten my makeup professionally done two dozen times and have never been blown away like I was with Anne. She is one of the most talented makeup artist I've ever worked with; she is meticulously detail oriented, professional, and down-to-earth. This is truly her craft and the passion is evident from the first time you meet her. I can't begin to tell you how selective I am with makeup artists, and Anne Timss was for sure the best glam squad decision I made for my wedding day. read more

I couldn't be happier to have hired Anne to do my hair and make up for my wedding in Honolulu, Hawaii, as it was one of my best wedding investments. Anne is not only an INCREDIBLY talented and industry established make up artist, but she does amazing hair as well. She was extremely punctual both on the wedding day and before my rehearsal dinner when she came to do my trial hair/make-up, one day before the wedding. On the wedding day, she punctually arrived with an assistant and followed the timeline to the second. I was never once worried we wouldn't be on time as I knew I was in great hands. I am so thankful that she traveled to Hawaii to be there for me on my wedding day, I will never forget it. Also, all my wedding pictures are timelessly flawless thanks to her. Thank you, Anne! read more

Anne Timss Makeup and Hair - Makeup Artists Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I hired Anne to do my hair and makeup for my destination adventure elopement- best decision ever! As I live out of State, all my communication with Anne was via email and we never had an opportunity to do a practice run. This was slightly unnerving to me as I am not a big makeup gal, and rarely wear more than mascara, but Anne came HIGHLY recommend through my photographer. Anne was super responsive and through our communication she assured me that I would look natural (aka not "over done"), beautiful, and my makeup and hair would fit my style and comfort level. She did an incredible job and i've never felt prettier in my life, and man was it durable! It POURED rain at my outdoor ceremony and I still looked damn good. She was hilarious, personable, professional, and incredibly talented. I couldn't recommend her more highly, especially for a destination wedding or adventure elopement. read more

I've worked with Anne as a model and she is one of the kindest and most talented makeup artist I've worked with, and most importantly her product and brushes are clean!!! Anne has a good eye for makeup and does what looks good on different people! She doesn't do the same look on everyone if it doesn't suit them. I definitely recommend booking her for a wedding! read more

Anne Timss and her assistant Shyn did a beautiful job in making myself (the bride), bridesmaids (4), and mothers (2) feel pampered on my wedding day. Anne is very timely in her responses to emails, she is professional, and has a creative eye for hair and makeup. She is very personable and easy to talk to. I am a complete amateur when it comes to hair and makeup, but when I described my vision to Anne she gave me exactly what I wanted and more. She offered beauty suggestions for my hair and skin type that will help me beyond our time together. I would highly recommend Anne and her team for any beauty necessities. I hope to work with her again in the future! read more

Anne did the makeup and hair for my daughter's wedding on Hood Canal. She was so fantastic to work with. From the first time I contacted her she was very professional and put me at ease about how she would be able to get 12 hair and makeups done and 9 shaves for the guys. My daughter did a pre-trial a couple months before the wedding and Anne was able to achieve the look my daughter was looking for, which was a more natural look. The day of the wedding Anne and her group showed up early in the morning and stayed until mid-afternoon. All the makeup artists that she brought were so talented. And the one hair stylist she had did such an incredible job on everyone's hair. We had many requests for different styles of hair and the stylist was able to achieve all the requests. We all had so many compliments on how natural and beautiful our makeup was. If you are looking for a makeup artist/hair stylist hire Anne asap. We booked her a year in advance. read more

Anne & Jessica were amazing. I worked with Anne a few times throughout the course of our wedding journey, and I don't think it would have been quite as amazing if it wasn't for her. My hair & makeup the day of were so on point everyone was complimenting me all night. I cannot say enough good things about my experience and Anne is truly one of a kind. read more

Anne was an absolute joy to work with. I booked her to do hair and makeup for my wedding on April 29. She was professional and so responsive from start to finish. I don't wear makeup on a daily basis, so having to hire someone to do my hair and makeup on my wedding day was definitely a challenge as I did not even know where to start. I contacted a few vendors, but decided to go with Anne because of her talent, professionalism and responsiveness. I still remember when I first reached out to her via email in the summer of last year, I received a response within 30 mins?! We exchanged texts and emails throughout the process and Anne always replied almost right away. I might not know much about makeup, but what I do know is Anne for sure knows how to put a bridezilla at ease :) Working with Anne was definitely one of the best decisions that I had made during the planning process. From when we first met for trial to the big day, Anne was always fun and with lots of interesting stories from her extensive travels and not to mention she was VERY FAST. She knew exactly what I wanted and I had never felt more beautiful :) Thank you, Anne. So here's an advice to all the bride-to-be's out there looking for an amazing hair and makeup artist: Go with Anne! You can thank me later! ;) read more

I found Anne through a friend and looked at her work on Instagram and immediately knew I had to book her for my wedding. Her makeup artistry was exactly what I wanted. Anne was professional, relaxed and so personable throughout the entire process. She was happy to answer all my questions and give me tips/tricks for weeks/days before the big day. I brought my mom along for the makeup and hair trial a few months before my wedding, and my mom was even blown away with how amazing Anne was--hair and makeup aside, Anne goes the extra mile to make you feel comfortable, relaxed and in a good mood! On my wedding day, Anne and an amazing group of woman came up to Whidbey Island (at 5:30AM!!) and styled me, my mom, my mother in law and my EIGHT bride maids in a relaxed, calm fashion. I'm still in awe they were able to wrangle us all and transform us within a whole morning. Anne and her crew were so thoughtful, listened to all of our requests and made us all feel relaxed on the big day! Anne, you are the best and I'm so thankful to you and your crew for styling me on my wedding day!!! read more
