"10/10 would recommend Ashlyn for any special event. I had hired her to do hair and makeup for me, my bridesmaids, and the mother of the bride and groom, and EVERYONE looked absolutely stunning. They all showed her their goals for hair and makeup, and she and her team nailed every single look.
Our hair and makeup la
sted all day despite the July heat (and tears on my end), and I felt truly stunning and flawless.
Even organizing everything leading up to the day and planning everything out was seamless and effortless—she was quick to respond to emails and give suggestions or alternatives. She truly went above and beyond, and I’m so grateful for everything she did.
She truly is such a pleasure to work with and so talented. I definitely will be using her again for any future services I may need."
