Prior to stumbling across Philly Hair and Makeup on Instagram, I had a serve fear of having anyone…read moretouch or cut my hair from previous bad experiences. After coming to Ashley for about two years now, those fears are long gone. Every time I make my way down to Northern Liberties to get my hair cut and colored, I leave so happy and thrilled with my new hair. I've done darker stretched root balayages as well as lighter balayages, with a tight root, which grow out very nicely and are low maintenance for busy (read lazy) ladies like myself. A lot of stylists say they know how to do a good balayage, but Ashley always does an amazing job (way better than some of the stylists my friends go to, but I won't name names, haha).

My hair and makeup lasted all day and night. As far as my bridal party, their hair was exactly how I wanted too.

I have naturally curly hair, love…read morerocking a bright, bold lip and wearing fun, colorful makeup and it was important to me to have my bridal look be reflective of me and my style and not what a "typical" bridal look is. I didn't want to straighten my hair or look super demure and soft -- I wanted my bouncy, tight curls but elevated, a hot pink lip, rosy cheeks, purple shadow and lots of highlight -- the team really listened to me and made it all happen. I worked with Stacy (hair) and Dee (makeup) for my look and they were lovely and fun and really skilled. They were also really easy to talk to and connect with. After my consultation with them, I gave them feedback that they ended up incorporating into my final wedding look. There are so many talented hair stylists and make-up artists out there, but communication is just as important. Dee ended up going out and getting some extra eyeshadows that were a better fit for what I wanted and Stacy used a smaller curler to give me a tighter curl. Stacy and Dee's ability to take my notes and create a look that better aligned with my vision makes them better at what they do and that's why I can 100% recommend working with them. They will listen to you and work on giving you what you want and what makes you happy and that is the marker of an amazing hair/makeup artist. Stacy, Dee along with the other 2 artists glammed up my 6 bridesmaids along with my mom and mother-in-law. They did a FANTASTIC job and in a record amount of time too. Everyone looked and felt amazing and praised their work. Everyone's looks lasted through the entire day and night (and in some cases until the next day too). Capelli + Trucco are worth the money. I found them to be very affordable compared to other quotes that I received and they did amazing work. They were also flexible with rescheduling (due to the pandemic) and honoring rates. I do want to mention that during my working with them, they had a switch in management during which communication halted for several weeks, but once Katy took over, communication went back to normal and I didn't have any issues afterward.

Even one star is too generous for the service I received from Claudia! Claudia was hired to do…read morehair and makeup for my new daughter-in-law, her attendants, and both mothers. (1) Claudia late, with no call as to her whereabouts. (2) She "arranged" only the front of my hair, and did nothing to "dress" the back of my head. I had to re-do much of what she had done, as her "style" made me look like a "milk maid". (3) She used the same foundation and powder on me (rosy complexion) as she used on the mother of the bride, a fair skinned blonde. I had to wash nearly all of the makeup off when I returned to my room and discovered my face was yellow, an unnatural shade for me, and this would be clearly visible to all when dressed in my gown. (4) One of the bridesmaids had to walk downstairs to the salon because of Claudia's tardiness...she ran out of time. I tried contacting Claudia after the wedding to discuss my concerns with her. After all, I paid more than $120 (2010) for the services she provided me. Claudia never returned my calls. I would never recommend anyone to use Claudia for an important event, she is apparently too busy to care.

When I got there at the time we picked, she was busy doing someone else's make-up and acted like I was in the way. She told me to email her with what I wanted done. When I did this she never wrote me back. I tried multiple times to call and she never returned my calls. Finally, she emailed me out of the blue and asked if I wanted to do my trial on a certain date. I was nervous b/c she had been so hard to reach but I decided it was worth it b/c I had heard good things so I said that date was fine. She never responded to the email saying she got my response so I was just left to assume we were on. Two days before our trial I emailed her to confirm and she canceled on me b/c she had a better offer come up. She gives off an attitude like she is famous and she is impossible to get in touch with. She may be a good make-up artist, I don't know, but I know at least for a wedding, you want people you can count on.

My preview session with Jackie and Katie was held at the Cherry Hill location, which was convenient since it had a parking lot. I found the preview session (which I was initially hesitant about doing) very helpful since I was able to test out the hairstyle I was considering as well as my makeup and lashes. It was a good trial run where I was able to give my input and request any changes etc and, at the end of the session, I was extremely happy with how my hair and makeup turned out. This helped put my mind at ease for how things would go on my wedding day. On the day of my wedding, Katie and Jackie arrived on time, were very professional, and did an amazing job getting hair and makeup done for everyone, including a couple of extra people for makeup. Jackie did my hair exactly as she had done during the preview session, which was a replication of a photo I had shown her. She even placed my tikka on perfectly. Katie also did an excellent job on my makeup, and it looked exactly the way we had practiced during the preview session. I got so many compliments throughout the day on how beautiful I looked and how stunning my hair and makeup were. I felt absolutely amazing on my wedding day thanks to this team. Overall, I would give them 5 out of 5 stars!!
