I'm so glad to have had Samantha provide wedding day makeup services for me and two wedding guests…read more She is highly skilled with different kinds of makeup application techniques, very responsive in communications, detail-oriented, efficient with time, and listened carefully to preferences and feedback. She even spent time to propose a detailed schedule to accommodate the limited availability of the hair stylist I chose. Her sweet, positive demeanor made everyone feel comfortable and relaxed during the hectic morning we had to get ready for the wedding. She took a print-out of notes from my makeup trial and referred to them to ensure that every detail we had discussed was incorporated. The makeup looked incredible and lasted throughout the night. I can't thank you enough, Samantha, for helping me feel beautiful inside and out on such a special day.

I only wish I had more opportunities to work with her! Sam is incredibly talented, I can't say enough good things about her work!

I originally had my makeup done by Daniel for the first time over two years ago for my maternity…read morephotos then a few months later for my sister in laws wedding. Long story short I had paid Daniel a deposit to have my makeup done for my wedding September 26, 2020 that I had to cancel due to covid. I let him know that I wasn't planning on rescheduling my wedding at the moment but asked if he could do my makeup for a family photoshoot instead. With less than two weeks notice daniel made himself available with no questions asked and fully honored my deposit that most artists would have not honored, not refunded, or charged as a cancelation fee. His kindness, hospitality, skill, and art always exceeds my expectations. I rarely get my makeup done but when I do it's with Daniel, period. Can't wait to see how our family photos turned out.

Jacqueline was my hairstylist for my wedding this past weekend, and I truly cannot recommend her…read moreenough. Not only was she incredible and made every single lady in my bridal party (and mothers of the bride and groom) feel so beautiful, she also brought such a beautifully calm energy to the wedding morning. It was one of my favorite decisions I made throughout my wedding planning processs to book with Jacque - I truly can't recommend her services enough!

Jacque was recommended to me for my wedding hair and makeup by a friend, but is now who I got to to…read moreget my hair done. There are a million reasons why Jacque deserves 5 stars, but I'll give you my top 3. 1. When I first met Jacque I was very unhappy with the color of my hair. I explained why I was unhappy, what I was afraid of because of past experiences (turning my hair blonde) and what I wanted. She took the time to explain in detail how she was going to fix my hair and get it back to the color I wanted. Her explanation made me feel so comfortable that I trusted the process even though it involved adding some blonde. When she was done, I was speechless with how great it turned out. Which is amazing, but what's even better, is she went and wrote down exactly what she did so my hair turns out the same color every single time I see her. I have never had another stylist in my entire life who has managed to keep my hair color the same more than 3 times. 2. I knew what I wanted my bridal hair to look like before I even knew what kind of dress I wanted. An up-do that I could be taken down for the reception. When I went in for trial, Jacque made my hair look exactly how I imaged and provided the tips I needed to take it down later as a practice run for the day of. My mind was set that this was how my hair was going to be, and then I watched an episode of Love is Blind that completely changed my mind. I called Jacque two weeks before my wedding telling her I was torn, she recommended another trail. She squeezed me in and I am so grateful she did, because the Love is Blind hair is what I ended up going with and I couldn't have been happier with it. The last thing I will say about the trial is that people tend to struggle with a foundation color for me because of my freckles, but not Jacque. She got it right on the first try! 3. The wedding day was flawless. Jacque brought two other stylists to help her and everything ran like clockwork and everyone look gorgeous! Not only that, but she made me a custom lipstick of the big day. A color made just for me! She also had lipsticks my wedding party could purchase day of. I've been a bridesmaid 10 times, and the lipstick is the first part of the makeup to go with out any options to reapply unless you bring your own (which I never remembered). This is just one example of how she goes above and beyond. If you are looking for someone to do your wedding hair and makeup or just a new hair stylist in general, look no more. Jacque is professional, kind, fun, consistent, and amazing at what she does!

Just finished my Brazilian wax with Marri! Every 5-6 weeks is the best to keep it maintained!! But,…read moreI started coming to Marri when I was newly pregnant in the beginning of 2022. I just didn't want to deal with trying to shave because once you get a big , pregnant belly, it's nearly impossible. IYKYK. It was my first time ever getting waxed , and a Brazilian nonetheless. I know your body and skin is super sensitive in pregnancy so I was so super worried about the pain of the wax. But Marri was so kind , welcoming, reassuring, fun, easy to talk to. I felt like I've known her for years!!! I don't think many people can say they look forward to getting waxed, but I always do because Marri is such a gem of a human. I'm so grateful to know her. Yes, it does hurt, but she's lightening fast. And she will talk to you about any and everything to keep your mind occupied, it's like a built in therapy session too!!! (Or she also does "quiet sessions" too if you prefer not to talk!!!). I truly wouldn't want to go to anyone else and I always recommend her to everyone I know !!!!

She is full of positive energy and was so easy to get along with. I did a hair trial with her before the wedding to get a scope of what I wanted and she was very helpful during that - sharing pictures and advice about what options worked well/some that didn't based on my hair type and dress.
