recommendations please

My sis is getting married october 11th.

We need a hair stylist that can do about 4-5 girls' hair and come to our house.

We need someone who works with extensions and my sis needs a trial obviously.

I used Jen the hair genie for my wedding and we were not too impressed.

Tell me who you used or who you recommend and post pics if you get em

Re: recommendations please

I used Jillian of Goreous faces for my wedding day make up but she also has a team of two sisters (Hair by Sarah and Bridget) who do hair.

They do really nice work and I would have loved to have had them do my hair but I had already booked someone else. In the end I should have cancelled who I originally booked and used Jillian's team.

Here's a link to their site, it has prices as well as a gallery of looks that they've done. I'm actually in the make up gallery!! Chat Icon

Thank you so much, I actually remember hearing about them on LIW. I am going to have my sister call and see if they are available for her day.

I was going to suggest the HAir Genie. I used her and had NO PROBLEMS and LOVED her work. What was the issue? Just curious.

Good Luck finding someone.

Well other than the fact that she was nasty and rude to some of my girls, she made us late, and all of our hair fell out before we even reached the reception.

A lot of people on LIW had problems with her last year not as many people are as happy with her than in the past

I just used Lauren at Cactus in Northport. SHe was super reasonable $$$$. SHe came to me and will bring an asst depending on the # of girls. She put my sister's extensions in and another girl who works with her makes custom extensions if you need them....colors them to match you hair.

I used Roseanna Armador from Cosmo NY

I used her for my wedding & loved her. She sells her own real hair extensions which she will match perfectly to your hair. I loved what she did and i loved my hair with the extensions. ( we didn't go over board- it was very natural.)

I will send you Forum Mail with pictures

Give Mya from Cosmetic Artistry a call. She did my wedding, my sister in law's wedding, and my cousin's wedding and ALL were thrilled. She is reasonably priced and great to work with. Feel free to FM me with any questions!

I used Fresh Face Forward and couldn't have been happier! They did my makeup for my wedding, and then all the girls makeup for my best friend's wedding in May. They're doing my other friend's wedding next Sunday... totally reasonable, prompt, and they did an amazing job! They are a vendor on LIW..good luck!Chat Icon
