I cannot recommend Caitlin highly enough for your wedding hair and makeup needs. Starting from the very beginning of the process, she was communicative and easy to work with. She gave me so much time on the day of my trial, honoring my desire to try different looks and take feedback about what I liked and didn't like, and even was willing to do another trial just so I could experience multiple options of an updo vs. a glam wave. I already loved the time I had spent with Caitlin in her salon but the energy that she and Megan brought on the morning of the wedding was more than I could have asked for. They made everyone feel so comfortable, including members of my bridal party that didn't have experience getting their hair done or felt a little awkward. They were so receptive to different ideas and made everyone's hair dreams come true. They were incredibly efficient and we got done in the perfect amount of time. And the hair and makeup itself! My updo was exquisite and lasted all night long with no problems. Similarly, the makeup looked gorgeous throughout the night. I felt like an absolute princess and I am so grateful to Caitlin and Megan for being a part of my day. read more

Caitlin is hands down the best stylist. I had never done anything other than semi permanent hair color and a bayalage once. My first meeting with her she made sure to know exactly what I wanted. She also is the first stylish to embrace my thick long hair and not want to overcharge and make it like it's an inconvenience. Her space is welcoming and her and Meg are just absolutely amazing people. They will make you laugh and feel absolutely stunning. I'll never go anywhere else. read more

I have been going to Caitlin for 8 years now and she has yet to disappoint! We have put literally every color of the rainbow and type of extensions (including faux dreads) on my head! Each time I always leave the salon feeling and looking 100% better than I came in. She's incredibly knowledgeable and honest. I encourage you to do a consult and I promise she'll pass the vibe check! read more

Caitlin is the best! Her vibe is always on point, you'll always feel like the most important person in the room and her attention to detail is superior. I've always struggled with finding a stylist who can properly trim my curls and shape my hair without losing too much length or volume. Her experience is obvious with the work that she does and her passion does not go unnoticed! I don't want anyone else to touch my hair ever again! read more

Caitlin is an incredible stylist. Immaculate vibes always, you can tell her and her staff are focused on creating an inclusive and safe environment. I never miss an opportunity to send my friends her way when they need a haircut or color service. Her "bed side manner" is unmatched, truly one of the funniest people under 5'2 in the state, which doesn't seem like an important trait for a hair stylist- but I promise it is. read more

Caitlin and her staff came through in a BIG WAY for my recent wedding. Our first attempt was canceled at the very last second due to Covid, and we kept losing vendors to illness- she stepped up at every second. She and Meghan handled hair and makeup for us, and everyone looked GORGEOUS. I couldn't be more grateful. read more

Caitlin is the most amazing hair stylist in all the land! She took my basic haircut I've had my whole life and has helped me gradually transition to the style I've always desired but didn't think I could pull off. Her and her staff are extremely intentional and queer friendly. Great with pronouns, making you feel welcome, and helping YOU achieve the look you've always wanted. Her vibes are awesome and she's great with her scissors read more

Caitlin is an absolutely incredible hair stylist, makeup artist, and overall person in general. I first heard of her through an old neighbor of mine who had recently gotten married after I loved the way the girls looked in her wedding photos! I asked who did their hair and makeup and she led me to Caitlin at Impulse Hair Designs! Caitlin did not disappoint. I met her in her studio in Providence to get my hair colored and cut about 6 months before the wedding which was wonderful because I got to know her a little bit before the big day. She was amazing right off the bat! Super friendly, fun personality, and an amazing listener. She really wanted to know all about my family dynamics, friendships, and plans for the big day right away. She took the time to get to know me and really listen to what I envisioned for the big day. I brought my mother to my hair and makeup trial about a month before the wedding on 9/21/19 and Caitlin did not disappoint. She was extremely welcoming and made this day FUN for the both of us! She listened to me when I showed her what I wanted and to be honest... I didn't have to change anything from the trial because she was so good the first time! On the morning of the wedding, she brought a great team of 3 ladies to do our hair and makeup and they travelled over an hour to my mother's house, which was so helpful and accommodating. The stylists were friendly, calm, and did exactly what the girls asked for, making sure it was okay with me (the bride) before doing anything unexpected! I am so glad that I booked Caitlin and her team for my wedding day. I felt like the most beautiful bride and CANNOT wait to see the professional photographs! THANK YOU CAITLIN! I will continue seeing Caitlin to get my hair done on a regular basis and will 100% recommend her to friends and family in the future!! read more

I got my hair done here and I was super happy with it! I have a hard time finding someone that I can trust to actually work on things, like my hair and I'm so happy I found somebody that I can trust now that I'm on the East Coast! read more

Caitlin is amazing. She not only is incredibly talented but has the best personality! She and her girls did hair and makeup for myself and my bridal party. They traveled to us and were prompt, friendly, fun and did great work. The atmosphere was so relaxed but fun and every single person looked absolutely stunning. The hair was perfect and makeup was flawless! Everyone's looks lasted the entire night and we have never felt more bautiful. I would go back to Caitlin in a heartbeat!! read more

The best there is. Clean shop, up to date trainings and options available for all hair types. Good music and great convo. Wouldn't go to anyone else for my hair, and haven't for over 15 years !!

My sisters have been going to Caitlin for years to get their hair done so when they recommended her and her team for my wedding it seemed like the perfect fit for us! I will say I do not normally wear makeup or do anything special with my hair so this was an area I was most nervous about. I wanted to still feel like myself and Caitlin more than delivered! She put me at ease making sure I knew she would just be creating an enhanced version of what I already see in the mirror. She has such a fun and infectious personality and will do everything she can to make you feel beautiful on your special day, I know that's how I felt! Thank you so much Caitlin, Meghan, and Chelsea! read more

Caitlyn does an amazing job with whatever your asking her to do. She's professional, outstanding in her craft and knows how to do a guys haircut better then most barbers. If your looking for a place to go and someone to cut your hair the right way she's the one to see... You can't go wrong... read more

So. Talented. Among many skills, Caitlin is a total whiz with hair color. She is able to flawlessly reproduce pictures, and has an excellent memory, so she remembers her clients' preferences. I made the mistake of popping in somewhere else to get my hair done, and they turned it a brassy, strawberry blonde. Then, so that I could be seen in public, I box dyed over it. Twice. Shame aside, I knew if anyone could fix my processed, brack colored hair it was Caitlin. Low and behold, she came to my rescue! Unfortunately, no "before" picture (because, frankly, who wants to remember that?!) but the results speak for themselves. Lesson learned, no more deviation due to poor planning! Caitlin is a total boss, reasonably priced, and the only person I trust with my hair. read more

I wanted to update my review on Cait as the last Yelp I did was 4 years ago...and well, I'm still with her! She has been my hair's savior. She's done an array of color on me, extensions (bead & tape in), makeup application, an up-do and too many adorable cuts to keep track. I never leave her chair unsatisfied! She has incredible attention to detail and really can make your hair cut or color look like the inspiration photo you bring her. I don't think that's true for many stylists... AND she is also absolutely hilarious and entertaining. She never fails to crack me up with a new story (yesterday a bee was in her shoe and stung her)! Once you go to Cait, you will NEVER need another stylist. Guaranteed! read more

I first met Caitlin at my friend's wedding back in 2018. I was a bridesmaid and she did my hair and makeup. At the time I was newly engaged and I knew I wanted her to be the one to do the hair and makeup at my wedding too! At my friend's wedding I showed her some pictures and also described what I wanted. My hair turned out even better than I could have imagined! During the makeup process she would show me during different parts of her process to make sure it was what I wanted. We also went with airbrush which I would highly recommend. My friend's wedding was in the middle of August and I was running around like a madman trying to make sure everything was going smoothly. Even though I was sweating my makeup was still PERFECT at the end of the night. There was no doubt in my mind after that day I needed her for my wedding. Fast forward to 2020 and I had my hair and makeup trial in February. Seeing Caitlin again was so reassuring and because I had already worked with her everything was so easy. My hair and makeup turned out beautiful. About a month later COVID hit and Caitlin was more than accommodating when I asked if she would still be available the following year. When we finally had our day this year, she took the stress out of the day by making sure she had a timeline to get everyone done in a timely manner. Even though it had been a year she still perfected my hair and makeup and all of my bridesmaids looked absolutely stunning. I can't thank Caitlin enough and would definitely recommend her and her team for your wedding! read more

She's unbelievable! I am SUUUPER picky and she takes the time to listen to me and give me exactly what I want. I also hate product in my hair when it is styled and she (unlike most hairdressers) actually listens and does not put product in my hair before she styles it. Cait is funny and knows just how to make you feel awesome about yourself and your hair! Color is her strong suit! She is good at both color and cut but she really excels at color! Thanks Cait! read more

Caitlin is the best colorist and stylist I have ever been to. I have been dying my hair for 20 years and my color was never quite right until I started going to Caitlin almost 4 years ago. She is so talented and professional. I have so much fun every month when I go to her and get my hair colored. She is also styling my hair for my wedding. She does an amazing job on up does and makeup! :-) I can't imagine anyone better as a hair/makeup artist than Caitlin!!!!!! read more

My hair was extremely broken and damaged from a combination of a few bad appointments elsewhere and from me trying to fix those appointments so I went in for a consult to see if I could benefit from extensions until my hair grows. She spent the time going through everything and explaining it all. I purchased the extensions (she gave me the colors info) and had my appointment today. She colored my regrowth a little so that it would blend perfectly with the extensions and it did. She literally explained EVERYTHING I may need to know with the aftercare of them and even stuff to expect that I wouldn't have thought of. She was professional and had an amazing personality. I'm a licensed cosmetologist and she's the first person that has done my hair in 13 years where I have left 100% happy and have not had to go straight home to redo it. I have found my new stylist for sure! read more

In love with how Caitlin does my hair! I'm constantly receiving compliments and recommending her to everyone. She makes me look fabulous and really is an artist! read more

Cait has been doing my hair for over two years now and I could not even imagine going anywhere else. She's a great listener and always does what YOU want yet offers creative ideas. Not only will you get amazing service, you will also have a great time in her chair laughing together. She will do whatever you want, whether you need safe natural look or crazy and fun. Or, she'll do a mixture of the two, like how she does with me! I highly recommend her services. read more

Once you find a great hairdresser, you don't want to go to anyone else. I've been going to Caitlin for as long as I can remember, and even when I lived in Florida for 5 years, I would plan hair appointments around my trips home. Not only is Caitlin super talented in her work, but she's also one of the funniest people I've ever met, which always makes for a fun time. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone in need of a great stylist! read more

I had such a great time at the salon today! WHICH BTW - I don't think I can say for ANY HAIR CUT I HAVE EVER HAD!!!! What an amazing cut and color!

Lol -literally almost the whole time :) funny when she didn't have to be ;) xoxo thank u sooo much!!!! I can't wait to see what she does next!!!!

Caitlin knows color, makeup, updos, and (one of) the BEST thing about her: her clients get what THEY want. I, personally, always have obnoxiously colored hair. But if you want a blonde bob, you got it! Talent, spunk, and a personality to match her hair... Girl is the best of the best!!!!! read more

Caitlin's talent with hair of all types is unparalleled. Over the last 3 or 4 years, she has given me awesome cuts and styles for my thick curly hair. I've also seen her shape and give dimension to my sisters straight, plain-jane hair. In addition to be talented...Caitlin is AWESOME, she's funny, kind and brightens your day. :) read more

Caitlin's work is incredible, totally reasonably priced, and she is absolutely hysterical. Whenever I leave her chair, every person I encounter stops and tells me how amazing my hair looks. She has perfected my purple hair color, and I always walk out with a fantastic blow out. I'd recommend her to anyone! read more

I have been getting my hair colored by Caitlin for almost 2 years now and see absolutely no reason to change :) She does a fantastic job and she is a great person to talk to while getting your hair done. Caitlin has always nailed the thing most important to me: to have my color look natural. However, if you're more adventurous than me I've seen some insane leopard print hair and Halloween makeup to make you squirm. A woman of many, many talents who takes the time to understand what you want. read more

Caitlin is a hair magician. I came to her after a botched color appointment somewhere else where they basically obliterated my hair. 12 hours after that nightmare I frantically scouted Yelp because I knew I needed an emergency hair repair treatment with professional products. Thank God I found this GEM! After explaining my situation and seeing pictures, she was kind enough to squeeze me into her busy schedule to help me. She saved my hair from further breakage, corrected some of the botched color and laid out a plan on how to move forward to bring back my hair to a healthy state while ultimately achieving my hair goals. She is attentive, very detailed in explaining what needs to be done and to top it, she has a cheerful, fun and positive soul. I just had my second appointment last night and she came through yet again with awesome color and the cutest stacked angled bob I've been dying to go back to. She's an artist. She is passionate about her craft and because of that she rocks. I am glad I found my stylist and I am never letting go. Thank you! read more

I love Catlin! She does wonders for my hair, my cuts and color always last and look amazing. She's legit done everything for me from the basic to clip in extensions, Brazilian blow-outs, and my makeup. Not only is she fantastic at her job, and someone that I would highly recommend to friends and strangers alike, she is charming, charismatic, and FUN. You couldn't ask for a better combo...and she OBV is super cute as well ;) read more

Caitlin was phenomenal. Completely devoted the time to doing a full consult with me and gave me her professional opinion on what I was asking for (an oil slick) then executed it flawlessly. She did such a great job with my hair that people have been stopping me to take pictures of it and asking for her card. Her pricing is definitely commensurate with the service provided. I think I finally found the right stylist for me. read more

Caitlin is the best! I am absolutely terrified to get my hair cut/ colored, but Caitlin made the process painless and enjoyable. She explained what would look good with my hair texture/color, so I entrusted myself to her and she did not disappoint! My hair looks amazing. I have gotten so many compliments from friends and even have my 63 year old mother (set in her ways) about to book an appointment!! Next on my list is extensions ;) read more
