Poor/highly variable quality and predatory pricing structure. not worth the risk given you pay in full (+ tip) up front and cannot refund. I booked GlamSquad for hair and makeup before my engagement photos. Unfortunately the makeup artist did a horrible job -- black dark eyeliner was smeared under my eyes and the face makeup looked entirely unprofessional. i would have been more angry had I not been laughing so hard. I asked her if she could take off the eyeliner as I requested more natural makeup for the photos, and she told me it had already set so she was unable to remove the makeup. I had to rush to take off 80% of what she did before leaving for the photoshoot. I asked GlamSquad for a refund on the makeup artist and they declined. I am sure not all of their makeup artists are bad, but unfortunately the pricing structure is such that you pay and tip up front, and you can't choose who you get. You can't share photos or guidance on the website -- only the app -- so I wasn't able to communicate with my hair and makeup artists beforehand. If don't like what you get, there is no recourse. I also learned that my makeup artist was self taught, so it is unclear whether they require any cosmetology credentials. I would 100% not recommend this service. read more

Had a blowout done with Jennifer O. Showed her pictures of what I wanted and it looked nothing like it. She also arrived late and was rushing. I think with blowout and curling my hair it took her only 30 mins. I wanted lots of volume and wavy curls for my baby shower and hair turned out nothing like I wanted. I hate that you cannot adjust the gratuity because she did not deserve 20% tip! Hesitant to book through this app again read more

GlamSquad is my FAVORITE!! Honestly, I owe this company a significant amount of reviews as I have used them for galas, my wedding shower, my welcome dinner, my wedding and a couple of nights out - and that's all been this year! I always run late or end up hating my hair and makeup when I go to salons and so far, I have yet to have a bad experience with this company's artists. They show up to my house or the venue on time, they're creative and highly skilled, and every person has been pleasant to work with. They also single handedly my bridesmaids on my wedding day when the salon my bridesmaids went do did an awful job. They jumped in for a few touch ups and made sure everyone felt their best. Jordan K., Melissa H., Jade P., Pricela R., Sarah W., Angelica L., Miriam S., and Customer Service Rep Nes are all 10/10. read more

I used Glamsquad for my wedding, and it was SUCH a good experience! Personally, I now very little about hair and makeup, so the trial was super helpful. They were also very accommodating as we adjusted the schedule for my bridesmaids and family members who decided to get hair and makeup. As long as they have advanced notice, they're able to schedule and make adjustments as needed. We had only 1 minor mishap with 1 stylist who was a bit short with one of my bridesmaids. Her work was spectacular, so we brushed it off. However, the other stylists took note and apologized on behalf of the entire company. We felt very well taken care of, and everybody looked gorgeous! read more

I truly loved using GlamSquad. I booked a last-minute makeup service for my birthday, and my artist was so kind, fun, and made me feel absolutely beautiful for my special day. I'll definitely be using GlamSquad again! read more

Glamsquad did an incredible job with my hair and makeup (and my bridal party's hair and makeup) for my NYC wedding. Not only is Glamsquad organized and professional, but also extremely responsive to inquiries. Within hours of reaching out, I had secured my appointments. Lauren is an incredible makeup artist and reflected my preferred look perfectly. Likewise with Denise, who executed my desired hairstyle to a tee. She even was able to incorporate live flowers into my hair on the fly, and they lasted all night. Can't say enough great things about Glamsquad! read more

Pricilla did a great job! Great end product and great experience. Friendly and good at what she does.

we used Glamsquad for a blowout recently and loved it! both stylists were amazing! Angela and Angelica were time and did a great job! very thorough and gentle + great energy to be around :) will definitely be using again! read more

Great. Jen was amazing, patient and very professional.I loved the convenience of having my makeup done in my home.

I booked Glamsquad for my courthouse wedding hair and loved it! She was kind and did exactly what I wanted. I also booked Glamsquad for my make up for my bridal shower and loved it! The Glamsquad team is super helpful and responsive. I would definitely use them again! read more

I did my first silk press service with Glamsquad and I LOVED it. My hair was left with beautiful bounce but pressed at the roots perfectly. The silk press looked exactly like what I'd get at a salon. I'm definitely using this service over and over. My stylist was fast, the quality was top tier, and she was so kind. Can't wait for my next one. read more

All around my go to service for glam needs. Hairs and nails are my usual go to. Great service and staff, as well.

Our service with Glamsquad was amazing!!! I used this service for my wedding and was obsessed with how things turned out. I even wanted to change things a bit after my trial and my stylist changed the style to fit my vision. She was lovely and so wonderful to work with! 10/10 recommend. read more

Glamsquad hair stylist was a no show. I tried to reach out to her for 30 mins and she didn't respond and was completely MIA. Finally they sent me an alternate person (45 mins after my original appt time) and I barely made it to my event on time . They then went ahead and charged me the full amount and tip for this wonderful experience. read more

I used Glamsquad for the first time and it was actually the best experience. I got a blowout and it was so quick and it lasted all night for my event. The stylist was awesome and had such a good vibe. Thank you Glamsquad!! read more

Amazing and time efficient service with the best team to make you feel amazing! Must do for any event or night out

Amazing curls! My stylist showed up on time, and the style held all night. Thanks so much as always, Glamsquad.

As someone with a busy schedule and constantly on the go, i was pleased to be able to rely on Glamsquad. Always on time, professional, and make the process quick and seamless. Whether it's early in the morning or between appointments, i love the flexibility of the services coming to me! read more

Obsessed with Glamsquad. I love the blowouts so much. The perfect bombshell blowout and all of the stylists are so professional and friendly. read more

The BEST!!! I host a lot of events for work and recently got engaged, so my GS membership has been a lifesaver! It's so convenient and I always feel 10x more confident walking out the door. The artists are so professional (and quick!) and have met me at my apartment, hotel rooms, even venues, etc. -- which makes getting ready so much less stressful/time-consuming. Jolenny is my go-to MUA & for the morning of my engagement party I got a HUGE scratch down my forehead from my cat & she completely covered it up and made me feel beautiful. 10000/10 recommend GS! read more

We used GlamSquad for family hair and makeup for my wedding. The professionals were punctual and easy to work with and everyone felt their best. My sisters-in-law all looked beautiful once their services were complete and the hair and makeup held up throughout the night even after a ton of dancing, which was great! The only constructive feedback I'd have to offer about the wedding services is that the day of a wedding can be really hectic. Often times, everyone is not getting ready in the same place at the same time, especially in NYC where hotel rooms and facilities are very small. It can be tricky to coordinate multiple people in different places on the day of but eventually it all worked out. Gwen was our dedicated wedding customer support representative and she was incredible. So responsive, so helpful and accommodating! I loved working with her - you're in very good hands if she lands on your account! read more

My makeup artist never showed up for my appointment! No call, no text. Everything was confirmed online. Will never book Glamsquad again.

Stylist had the wrong number on file and I was unable to contact her for the appointment we had scheduled. I called customer support and they gave her my correct number 15 minutes into the appointment. Instead of trying to contact me the stylist left and I was charged for the appointment even though it didn't happen. Very upset bc I love this service but won't be using it ever again read more

We loved our hair and makeup services for my wedding! We had two specialists come in to help myself, my mom, and the mother of the groom. They were both very understanding when we said we weren't used to getting our hair or makeup done, but we had inspiration pictures to work from. They took initiative, and were careful and considerate. Everyone ended up looking and feeling fantastic, and had such a fun time as well. The atmosphere was relaxed and very happy. Would totally recommend. read more

GlamSquad was great to work with! I had my wedding hair and makeup done with them and I'm so pleased with how everything turned out. They were punctuntal, efficient, professional, and were able to generate a look that reflected what I was going for. More impressively, because I don't know a lot about makeup/hair, a lot of my guiding descriptions were very vague ("Glam, but not too glam, but sort of contoured, but I want to look like myself") and yet they were both able to create something that aligned with my idea. Highly recommend, I'd book with Glamsquad again! read more

I booked hair and makeup trials for my wedding, wedding day services, and services for my bridal party. Everything went so smoothly and we were all very satisfied with how our hair and makeup turned out! The hair and makeup experts were all on time or early to each of our appointments and we worked with 4 people total over two days. For the hair and makeup trial and the wedding day hair and makeup, both beauty professionals were extremely attentive and helpful getting a look that was perfect for me. They both took feedback well and were adaptive to my concerns. They also worked well together in close quarters. My experience with all the Glamsquad experts was that they were adaptive and able to work with any limitations. I was also very well supported when booking and figuring out what everybody in my party wanted done. I would definitely book through Glamsquad again! read more

this was the first time I have used Glamsquad. Dina was my makeup artist and she was wonderful. She came early and did a beautiful job. I looked perfect for my son's wedding! I have already booked Glamsquad again. read more

Requested a service for a gel manicure for me and my partner. The professional was very nice and on time. However, not only were her choices quite limited my partners manicure peeled off the very same day! We paid $100 per manicure!! I reached out to the company via email and they responded saying they would attend to the request but I still haven't heard anything and this is 2 weeks ago now. Next time I'll just go to a regular salon. Biggest waste of money and time. read more

Glamsquad was AMAZING for my wedding day! We had 3 Makeup Artists and 3 Stylists for my bridal party and each one was incredibly talented but also warm, kind and easy going!! The wedding team at Glam squad was super responsive, and very helpful in the months leading up to the wedding - such a seamless experience to plan, coordinate and change a few details during the way! My bridesmaids all looked GORGEOUS - every single one of them! Krystal, Jazmin, Sky, Diana, Tawni, Marcus - you are all gems and I can't thank you enough for helping to make my wedding day so great! read more

I used glam squad for my wedding in Cambridge, MA. I hired them for my bridal HMU, my bridesmaids HMU, and several others HMU. We ended up having 2 makeup artists and 3 hair stylists which allowed us to get started at 10AM and finish at 2PM. Everyone was super nice and did an amazing job. Highly recommend if you want a large team! read more

I use Glamsquad pretty regularly for pedicures and usually it is fine. But I want to put this experience out there even though it happened quite a while ago; it was so bizarre and I'm wondering if anybody out there would have an explanation for it. So she was new to me, pleasant enough, but she tried to start my pedicure without first soaking my feet. I stopped her... what the heck? She explained that I had booked a "regular" pedicure and that you only got your feet soaked if you had booked a "spa" pedicure. I told her this was wrong, unhygienic and no nail salon anywhere would paint your toenails without soaking your feet first. She actually argued with me (!) insisting that she had "...been working for Glamsquad for 7 years" and so she "knew what she was talking about" and I was her first customer (in 7 years) who thought otherwise. Well, I needed that pedicure. So I let this weirdo-liar give me a "spa" pedicure and charge me the extra $. Of course the minute she left I raced to the phone to complain, and Glamsquad refunded me. To be fair, my pedicures since have been fine; nice women who are always on time. My question is just, "Huh?" I still don't get it. How was this un-vetted, un-trained woman working for Glamsquad? read more

Abi at Glamsquad was so great. I wanted a very simple bun for my wedding, and a simple blowout for my mom. She gave us everything we wanted and more. She was five minutes early, super patient and calm and competent on a stressful morning, and brought great energy for the big day! And she was in and out in an hour and a half. Would highly recommend. read more

I used them for my wedding and for both my hair and makeup, and I was thrilled by my experience. I got exactly the look that I wanted and the service was timely, talented, and a pleasure to schedule. read more

We hired Glamsquad, addmittedly very last minute, to cover hair and makeup for the ladies in our wedding party. The corporate side of Glamsquad was very cumbersome and difficult to work with. One of those situations where its very hard to find how to talk to a person. However, the individuals who showed up on the day were truly remarkable artists. I'd name them here, but you don't get option to select people during the set up. Just whomever Glamsquad has available. They made everyone in the party feel exceptionally at ease and confidently beautiful. Even my anxious mother and partner's picky mother were extremely satisfied with their looks. Would highly recommend and would recommend Glamsquad look into streamlining the booking process! read more

Our stylist arrived on time and was professional and courteous. She styled both mine and my daughter's hair as requested. We were pleased with the results. The price was reasonable. We would use Glamsquad again. read more

I requested Glam squad on the morning of my son's wedding to do both my makeup and my hairstyle. I was extremely satisfied with both. My makeup was absolutely flawless and with hair extensions my hairstyle was the tops. read more

The stylists are very friendly and punctual, but their skill has been less than mediocre.
