The Bridal suite was my vendor for hair for myself (bride), my mom, and my three bridesmaids. I just read another review from a few years ago that sounds exactly like my experience. But I'm not sure if it would have made me look elsewhere if I read it before I hired them due to their high overall rating. They didn't get to our location on time so they were still doing my hair which made the wedding late by 30 minutes. The whole wedding schedule was pushed back and needed to be rushed due to this vendor. I asked for Hollywood waves. I got 90s frizz. We even told her it was too frizzy and she did a little more work (it actually looked worse before). I thought this place was good. A professional hairstylist should know how to do Hollywood waves. They also made my mom's hair look like crap. They did okay on my 3 bridesmaids. Even if they did better-than-okay on them, that would be like 50 points out of 100. I texted Tru about our disappointment. She literally said, "For your hair, we actually loved how it turned out." You either can do it or you can't. This tells me they don't know how to do Hollywood waves which makes sense since there aren't any pictures of people with the Hollywood waves look in their pictures on Yelp. It also says my opinion doesn't matter. In her text, she said, my mom "didn't have enough hair to do braids." I literally did the braids on my mom's hair before the wedding and that was without extensions and it still looked cute. So this just confirmed that she (the owner, Tru) didn't care about doing a good job as she was the one doing my mom's hair and had a look of apathy on her face in our bRiDaL sUiTe while we were getting ready. I would have thought that at least her reaction to my complaint would have shown concern or any level of standards to meet the client's expectations. This was the worst vendor that we worked with for our wedding. For some reference, our makeup artist was amazing and did an amazing job on everyone. (Moka Beaute) The picture of me in the comparison photo (right) was taken less than 2 hours after they did my hair. It looked pretty much like that immediately after they were done with it. read more

Highly recommend! Last minute I decided to get my hair done for a COVID wedding. I was able to book my appointment easily with the online portal the night before. When I entered, I felt safe with how socially distant I was from the other person getting their hair done. I had asked for volume and curls and Tru took it to a whole other level! My hair is super thin and the curls fall within 2-3 hours, but Tru magically made my hair look/feel thick and the curls lasted for three days! Definitely my new go to place! read more

Tru at the Bridal Suite was an absolute pleasure to work with. I had a very small COVID wedding with just my family and didn't think I would do professional hair or makeup. I decided to do a trial with the Bridal Suite and I am so glad I did! Tru and her team listened to my vision and put in so much time testing hair styles and different make-up options. Their patience and grace made me feel so valued. I decided on an updo for myself and for my maid of honor and fake eyelashes. Tru was so much fun and put me at ease on the day of. I couldn't recommend more and I'm so glad I went with the Bridal Suite! read more

The concept of The Bridal Suite is perfect for any bride who is getting married at a venue that either doesn't offer a space to get ready in or you don't have enough time reserved at the venue to get ready. The fee to have the salon to yourself on your wedding day is beyond reasonable and their pricing is very fair. From the time I reached out, Tru was responsive and very flexible with any requests. I could not have been happier with my wedding hair and make up done by The Bridal Suite team. I have very thin hair and Tru was able to make my hair look so full and voluminous for my wedding and I was so happy with how my make up held up through tears and sweat all day! The salon is clean and cute and all of the stylists are so nice and fun to talk to. You can bring your own champagne (as much as you want) and food! While I reserved the salon for my group, I know the team will travel to your location as well. I highly recommend The Bridal Suite team! read more

I couldn't have been happier with my experience working with Tru for my wedding! I told her that I wanted to "still look like myself" but with a more dramatic makeup look than I usually wear, which she definitely achieved. I told her I felt like a Pinterest photo when she was done - it was exactly what I wanted! Tru & her assistants were timely, sweet, and very attentive to requests from my bridal party to ensure they felt beautiful for the wedding day. I worked with Tru leading up to the big day sending her photos of what I was liking in terms of hair and makeup which made me feel confident that I wouldn't end up with something I'd be unhappy with. Tru was super accommodating in meeting me at my parents' house when I was in town for my hair & makeup trial, and also came to our wedding venue for the wedding day so I didn't have to rush around all day. She is also very reasonably priced, especially if you have several women needing hair or makeup done! She doesn't try to slip in any surprise upcharges like many vendors do. If you're looking for a wonderful hair/makeup artist, definitely reach out to Tru! You will not regret it. :) read more

I loved working with The Bridal Suite for my wedding! The customer service was excellent and I felt like the pricing for the packages was EXTREMELY fair. Brittany, the makeup artist, is so talented and fun to chat with and everyone who worked on my hair was wonderful. The Bridal Suite really helped my vision come alive and I highly recommend them to any bride or even just someone who needs glam for a night out on the town! P.S. They will travel and came all the way out to Hockley for my wedding! read more

What a SUITE place!! From the clean, chic ambiance to the friendly staff, I'd recommend The Bridal Suite to all my friends and anyone looking for makeup and hair services for their big day or just to look glam for themselves. I've booked them for their bridal services for my upcoming wedding and am so excited! Tru, the owner, was very helpful in my hair consultation and I learned a lot about what works best for my hair ty With reasonable prices and the fact they welcome walk-ins, I'd come back again to try out their airbrushing for sure. read more

I definitely have to do an update review, after my wedding date, but this is based off of the bridal hair trial I had yesterday. One of the things I liked about Tru, was that she was one of the few people willing to do hair on Sunday as my wedding is taking place over two days. She also does make up too, lesson learned. Had I known earlier how hard it was to book two different people and found her earlier, I would have booked her for both. The start of my appointment was terrible, because I arrived late. I had wedding shower drama. The dress I ordered didn't fit, had to buy white pants and a shirt and look icky and frumpy for my own bridal shower, with my mom keeping it too real and telling me maybe I am round. I think I was anywhere between 20-30 minutes late, because of that disaster and with the exception of the receptionist for JC who was rude, Tru acted professionally and didn't mention it. I had a great time, during the hair trial as we shared stories and talked about those little interesting details in your life that isn't done often. As for the hair, she listened to what I wanted. and easily replicated the pictures from my pinterest board. She gave plenty of good advice, including recommendations as to how much I needed to trim/cut off for optimal updo hold and added a few extra details, which I felt was nice. I definitely tipped her the best that I could, because she deserved it. Even though my clothes looked like crap, I knew by the end with a few cute accessories and an amazing hair I looked the part of the bride at the wedding shower. I received many compliments and was excited to know it would look even better, after we make the adjustments to my hair, namely the length, that we discussed. If you're open to ideas and suggestions, I feel she can be a valuable ally and make you look your best. However, if you are picky and don't want suggestions, she can do that too. I was dead set my hair had to have a certain element and she complied, which was cool of her to do. I will post pictures, after July 22/23 and please expect an updated review as to the wedding day experience. I hope this helped brides, because we really do need more updated and accurate wedding hairstylist reviews. read more

Truc is my homegirl! She is highly experienced and very talented. I met with her to do a makeup trial, she reviewed the pinterest posts that I brought and made recommendations that suited me best. From there, I trusted her and didn't need to do a hair trial. I had my bridesmaids go through her for their hair and makeup and we are all so pleased! I initially chose Truc because her rates were very reasonable. After this experience, I've learned that it was the steal of the year! Thank you Truc for making me beautiful! read more

Visited Texas (from NYC) to attend a wedding so was in search of a hair salon where they also offered makeup services. This is how we came upon the Bridal Suite. First and foremost, we were really appreciative of True (co-owner)and her entire team (Bianca, Erica, etc.) for accommodating additional, last minute requests and for squeezing a few members of the family on a day they were double booked (we had few events to attend). We were a group of approximately 10 people getting our hair and makeup done and True (and Bianca) made sure they fulfilled each and every single of our requests. We were truly greatful of True and Bianca for coming to the hotel the next day to provide styling and makeup services for our large group. This made our lives much easier and convenient. Overall, the team was very friendly and professional (don't be turned off by Bianca's attitude-she's a bit reserved at first but very warm once she opens up). We were satisfied with our services and glad we chose the Bridal Suite! read more

I am so happy to have found The Bridal Suite for my wedding. The professionalism and flexibility from that first call, trial and final product was a fantastic experience. Tru grasped by vision from the start and delivered as promise and on time! From the hair to makeup with Bianca, everything came out great and the pricing was definitely affordable. I am so thankful to the whole team for making my day so special! read more

I had such an amazing experience with Bridal Suite! I was visiting Houston for a wedding and am such a noob when it comes to makeup and hair and so I found the Bridal Suite doing a few google searches. First, their online scheduling system makes it so easy to book exactly what you want with ease. I was able to book something a month out and all my emails were answered promptly by the owner Tru which I really appreciated. I had my appointment with Brittany was absolutely amazing. She was so fun to get my make up and hair done with, and made me feel absolutely beautiful. I got so many compliments and felt so confident! Thank you so much Tru and Brittany, I highly recommend The Bridal Suite for anyone who is looking to feel beautiful on their special day! read more

Everything about working with The Bridal Suite was perfect. The trial was fun and productive and the team was able to take my vision and make it a reality. They opened up VERY early on a Sunday for the wedding, had the space all ready for my bridal party and family, and were just a joy to work with. Tru is an artist and her passion for her work is crystal clear. She works efficiently and beautifully. I really could not have hoped for a better experience. Book here!!!! read more

This vendor left my friend in tears before her engagement shoot. They did not show up on time, kept changing the appointment time, and when they did show up they curled her hair instead of doing a blowout stating it would look better. They caked on her makeup, and claimed she left glowing reviews when they did a follow up call. They never followed up with her, and blatantly lied about doing so. This vendor charged for the trial makeup, and made the engagement shoot obsolete. Very sad customer service from this facility. Next time I would encourage them to try and remedy a situation instead of posting false statements to make their business appear not at fault. read more

Please do not choose this vendor. I chose The Bridal Suite for my engagement photos and it was a disaster. First, they were an hour late and when they did finally arrive (after blatantly lying several times about their arrival time) they informed me there was not enough time to provide the service that I had requested and clarified over email prior to the appointment. As a compromise, I agreed to very light waves. By the end I had a head full, tight curls. Not only did they give me curls I did not want, the curls completely fell within two hours of leaving the salon and my hair has never had an issue holding curls before. I have no idea how they expect the hair to hold for an entire wedding! The hair and makeup photographed horribly. The makeup caked and my hair frizzed and fell. Obviously, I am going get more pictures taken. When I called, they did offer to do my hair and makeup for the new pictures. However, after the extreme lack professionalism and the poor result of the first pictures, I do not trust them to perform well. It's clear to me that this business lacks integrity and only cares about the money, not the happiness of their brides. DO NOT HIRE. read more

I decided to try this place out to get my hair styled for a night out. I was not disappointed! The staff is so friendly and helpful. They started on my hair immediately, asking lots of questions to make sure they knew exactly what I wanted! Tru had a wedding that same day and still made sure to make it back to the salon before my appointment ended to personally greet me and make sure my hair was styled to my liking. My hair stayed put all night, and I got so many compliments! 10/10 place all around! I will definitely be using them again in the future. read more

Excellent! I used them for engagement, bridals and the day of the wedding! every time it was perfect. Truc is the best! She really knows her stuff. On the day of the wedding she brought another lady that did a great job as well! Pricing was good for make up($65). My bridesmaids thought the hair was a little too much($65) but I was fine with it. I would definitely use them again! All my bridesmaids and friends took their business cards. They use airbrush make up and it stayed on all night. I sweat...a lot...so don't worry. It'll last all day and night! Truc is very prompt and punctual. The next wedding i'm a part of I will definitely push for them to use Primp Bar! read more

Tru, Erica & Blanca were amazing the morning of my wedding (at the salon). They took care of my hair and makeup and I loved how it all came out. I got many compliments, but the best thing was that the hair stayed in place all day. Tru and her team are talented, creative and kind boss ladies. This is a great way to treat yourself on your wedding day to take care of the hassle. I recommend this team and I appreciated going in for a trial run a few weeks before. Thank you Bridal Suite! read more

After a last minute realization that we had not yet found a hair and makeup person for my sister's wedding, I stumbled upon PRIMP Bar on yelp and thought I would see if they would be able to fit us in on such short notice. I received an email from Tru not so long after, and she was more than willing to fit us in and meet our needs. Tru did not disappoint. One of the bridesmaids is very picky about hair and even she was immensely pleased. She helped us achieve our Pinterest dreams! The bride, who was hesitant to get her hair and makeup done to begin with, was so impressed and felt absolutely beautiful. Tru was professional, timely, efficient, accommodating, and absolutely wonderful. Can't wait to get her for our next special occasion! read more

Tru was amazing. She was able to fit me into her schedule for my last minute wedding, even keeping me up-to-date on her whereabouts 30 minutes before my appointment (even though she travels for different events, I never had to worry about her not showing up or being late!). She asked me to send any pics before hand of what I was envisioning, listened to what I wanted, and was able to use that to reflect my personality in the final hairstyle and makeup. She genuinely wants you to feel like your most beautiful self and does not upcharge just because you used the word "wedding." I can't wait to go back and see her new studio in action! read more

I have nothing but positive things to say about my experience with The Bridal Suite!! A couple of weeks ago I found out very last minute that I would be attending a red carpet event and really wanted to get my makeup done. After calling The Bridal Suite to ask if they took walk-ins, Tru assured me it would be okay if I came in right then. 15 minutes later I was in the chair at The Bridal Suite letting Tru work her magic. She did such a fantastic job and was so pleasant to spend time with. She was very efficient (especially with my short time frame) and did an amazing job. I didn't even know about The Bridal Suite before this day, but I will definitely be going back very often now. Thank you again Tru for all of your help! read more

Working with Tru was a relaxing and enjoyable experience. And better yet--I looked great! I was officiating my nephew's wedding at Station 3, and I wanted to look great in pictures. Tru was responsive before our meeting and so helpful and kind during our appt. She met me at the Magnolia Hotel for hair and makeup. I highly recommend! read more

Tru was incredible to work with. She did an amazing job on my hair and makeup, and her team did a great job on all of my bridesmaids and my mom. They all loved their hair and makeup and looked so beautiful. I don't wear a lot of makeup usually, so I was concerned about getting my makeup done. But I voiced my concerns to Tru, and she made sure my look was light and natural. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day! She also created the perfect hairstyle for me, using the photos I had saved as a reference. At my trial run, she even recommended some small changes for the next haircut I got, which helped my hair look even better on my wedding day. Tru was very response and communicated well. She was flexible with the times for my trial runs for hair and makeup, which was very helpful. Tru was a pleasure to work with, and I would highly recommend her! I felt so beautiful on my wedding day, thanks to her work! read more

Tru is Ah-mazing! She did hair and make up for my bridal pictures which turned out amazing! She did my hair for my wedding and it turned out great too! After my bridal pictures I had to run errands at The Galleria and many people approached me to get her number. I also received many compliments. If ever I need a make up artist I know now to give her a call. She offers suggestions and makes sure that you are pleased with the final outcome. She is very calm and does not rush any detail. I highly recommend her. read more

Tru did my hair/makeup for my wedding day and did a wonderful job!! She had two additional artists who did the hair/makeup for my 5 bridesmaids, flower girl, and the moms. They worked very quickly, were professional and did amazing work - everyone looked beautiful and polished. One of my bridesmaids does not normally wear makeup and was worried about not looking like herself, but she LOVED her look. Tru was very in tune with what we wanted in our looks, and made the day of so seamless and stress-free for me as a bride. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone for wedding hair & makeup services! read more

I used The Bridal Suite for my wedding about a month ago at The Astorian. They came to the venue to do hair and make-up for 5 bridesmaids, 2 moms, the bride, and flower girl. We had a range in hair style - long, short, shoulder length - and they were able to style it all with no issue. Everything turned out stunning! Our hair stayed in place even after whipping it back-and-forth on the dance floor, and our make-up survived dinner and drinks!! We received numerous compliments throughout the night. I would recommend The Bridal Suite to anyone! read more

Tru did my hair and makeup, along with my sisters, mother in laws and moms hair and makeup for my wedding this past May. She did a fantastic job. She was very easy to coordinate with and gave great advice. I did a trial hair and make up a couple weeks before the wedding and she did a great job working with me and listening to the style that I wanted. I did the airbrush makeup, it lasted the whole day and looked great in wedding pictures. Overall I would highly recommend The Primpbar ! read more

I'm a customer for life! I've been a client ever since it was The Primp Bar based on a friend's recommendation. Even though the name has changed, the quality service that I've received has not. Tru and her staff have always been very professional and in tuned with what I wanted. Not only does my hair and make up always look on point every time, but they always offer simple tips so that I can do it on my own. They always make it look so easy and effortless. I would definitely recommend them to anyone! read more

This review is many many months overdue. I highly recommend her! Tru did my wedding hair and make-up in February, 2018. She is truly talented, personable, professional, accommodating and fantastic! She listened to how I wanted to look on my wedding day. This is my second marriage and I am an older bride. I wanted to look natural yet slightly more glamorous on my special day. A few guests had never met me before and did not believe I was within a decade of my real age. She is WONDERFUL !! read more

Tru & her team are so wonderful!! Every single person in our wedding loved their hair & makeup - and that is not an easy task to accomplish. She was communicative through out the entire planning process and helped out a ton the day of the wedding. I would highly recommend her for any other service you may need. She is equally talented at both hair & makeup - I loved everything she did!! read more

I recently had a get together with my girlfriends and thought it would be a fun to get our hair and make up done for a night on the town.
