This was not just going to be my regular appointment with her (color touch-up for grey roots and thinning out/trimming my shoulder length, brown, super thick, curly hair--which she does so beautifully anyway! ;) Chrissy has been my personal hair stylist and good friend for several years. I told her I wanted to change my hair color from boring brown and add in hints of strawberry-blonde highlights while touching up my grey roots. She always listens and explains how and what she will actually do, before she proceeds, which educates me along the way. I love her enthusiasm, offering creative solutions---yet always checking in with me to make sure I am comfortable and content. Wow, she delivered again! I walked out with this sparkling, strawberry-blonde set of partial highlights and a smooth, bouncy blowout, feeling very confident and pretty!! Yes! Finally, Chrissy is so kind and sincere. Her warmth and dedication is unmatched because she TRULY CARES and WANTS you to look awesome! (note: my 20 year-old daughter enjoys her clarifying hair mask and hair-trims/styles too! ) Chrissy, we are filled with gratitude for all your amazing attention to detail and the friendship we have enjoyed along the way. Here is to your next successful chapter at Ulta! Love ya, Cristina and Anna

I had the most amazing experience at Jenny Taylor boudoir photos, not only was the make up artist…read moreamazing. She was also in training to take photos and did a fantastic job with making sure that each picture that she took came out perfect. The photographer that I had was absolutely unbelievable, made you feel like you are the sexiest woman alive. I can't put it into words how amazing and comfortable I was in lingerie in front of two women that were gorgeous. I also had the opportunity to speak with Jenny Taylor, owner of the company, and I have to say it was one of the best conversations I've had with an owner of a company in a very long time. She has an amazing business and cares about her customers and will go out of her way to make sure you are happy, thank you again for the amazing experience and for the amazing staff that you have

I wanted to do something special for my husband's 50th birthday. I decided to try this! First of…read moreall...I have struggled with my body image for my whole life. I have PCOS and it affects my weight(185#) and weird hair growth. I have anxiety which has caused other problems. I NEVER thought I could do something like this. Just talking to the lady to schedule the appointment was terrifying but she made me feel comfortable. Trying to walk into the building the day of the appointment was a whole other challenge. I talked myself into it and made it in through the door. I was greeted by the most kind women that assured me it would be a great expierience. One thing that helped was to know that they all had to expierience this when getting hired. They all know the feelings I was feeling that day. My make up was beautiful. I'd wear make up all the time if I could make it look like that! Then came time to take "it" all off somehow I did that, too! Once they started taking pictures it was so easy! She told me where to go, how to pose, where to put my had/arm etc etc. I couldn't believe how comfortable I was wearing nearly nothing! I ended up purchasing all of the photos at the end on a drive. Was it expensive...well yeah. They work hard! Was it worth it...100%. My husband's reaction was priceless. 1st thing he said was that he's always seen these on facebook but never thought I would do that. For his 30th birthday I had surprised him with a trip to his first michigan game and bought him an authentic jersey. I wore that jersey for part of the photo shoot. I also took a few other photos in a bralette and panties. My advise...if you ever thought this would be neat but not sure if you could then just do it!!

I rarely leave negative reviews, but I feel it's important to share my experience so other brides…read moreknow what to expect. I booked this company for my wedding hair and makeup and had a trial that was incredibly disappointing. My stylist was very kind, but the end result was nowhere near what I asked for. My hair looked stringy, flat, and messy, pins were literally falling out on the drive home, parts of my hair weren't even curled, and most of my extensions were not used, leaving my hair looking thin and unfinished. When I showed my family and friends, everyone was shocked at how sloppy it looked. The makeup was equally upsetting. Despite telling them in advance that I am a crier and wanted a smoky eye, the look was very light, pink tones & not smoky at all, and it immediately began transferring and melting off as soon as I left. My skin wasn't even primed, and the colors didn't match my skin tone. For the cost of these services, the quality was unacceptable. What made the situation far worse was how Gina handled my concerns. Her email back to me was incredibly condescending, dismissive, and even hurtful. She did not take accountability, offer to rectify the situation, or show any genuine care for my experience. Instead, she argued with me, made excuses that simply weren't true, and even sent back a response that was clearly written with AI rather than authentic communication. For a bride putting her trust in a company for such an important day, being spoken to this way was beyond upsetting. I later went to another artist for a trial, and they were able to accomplish exactly the look I wanted using all my extensions and proper waterproof makeup that held up beautifully with a gorgeous Smokey eye, proving Gina's explanations wrong. Overall, this was one of the most frustrating and disappointing experiences I've had while planning my wedding. Brides deserve to feel pampered and confident on their big day, and unfortunately, this company delivered the opposite. I would not recommend them. I've attached my inspiration photo's and my results below. For reference.

They do not have a minimum wedding party number required to work with a wedding, which I appreciated, since only my mom and I needed hair and makeup. I worked with Carla, who is clearly quite experienced and professional in how she carries herself (setting up the room, getting exactly what she needed from the hotel to work with us), which made the afternoon of getting ready for my wedding stress-free. She was responsive and respectful to the changes I wanted to make from my trial. She clearly listened to what I wanted and then delivered beautifully. My mom and I were blown away by our hair and makeup. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day thanks to Carla.

After several years of no chemical treatments, I decided to get a hair smoothing type of service that would help me loose some of the curl. Ultimately I decided on a Brazilian blowout. As one would imagine, the cost of this type of service is pretty expensive ($200-350). So, I went in search for a Groupon offer from a stylist with a good reputation. I found that in Karen. Karen answered all of my questions beforehand. When I arrived for my appointment, she explained each step of the process and discussed the maintenance requirements (specific products). End results were amazing! Three weeks later I can say it is totally worth the investment with or without a Groupon. There's much to be said about a great environment, attentive shampoo technicians and a competent stylist. Karen M. = rock star!

Karen was awful!!!!!! She treated me like a child, trying to…read moreexplain things and nearly made a person feel "stupid" also- she kept adding costs. She was very rude and always made me feel like her last priority! She let me sit there with my hair in the shampoo bowl like a wet dog as she "squeezed" someone else in for a haircut...I sat in the bowl the entire time while she finished her other clients haircut, I understand hairstylist try to multitask but don't just leave a client like that. She also didn't know what the hell she was doing with my highlights, she was careless and basically burned my scalp with the water (I let her know it was hot) and told me I was "sensitive" I'm sorry, but No one should be treated that way! I DO NOT RECOMMEND HER AT ALL! RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN!

I had been coloring it at home for years, mostly with the results you'd expect from a box. Kristen has not only given me beautiful blonde tresses which hide the gray nicely as it starts coming in, but when the color gets a little darker, it's a beautiful light brown, the color that I tried unsuccessfully for years to get out of a box. My hair's condition has vastly improved, and every cut that I've gotten has been beautiful. I normally like my hair longer, and when I first came to Kristen, I was growing out a bad short cut. The first time in Kristen's chair and I felt like I already had long hair when she was done simply because she is an expert at cutting and knew exactly how to clean up the bad cut and give me results that I loved instantly. A few years ago, I decided to go brave and go short again. Kristen's cut was absolutely amazing. As it's grown out again, it's looking even more beautiful than ever. The salon itself is tons of fun - beautiful decor and filled with a lot of fun people. Every time I go is relaxing time for me, and I feel good just walking in the door. I highly recommend Pink, and especially Kristen. She's the bomb!!

I recently worked with Style on Site for wedding hair and makeup services as a referral from a…read morefriend. The way their business is laid out is slightly different than others in the area. You work with their group directly who then contract out hair and makeup stylists for your trail and day of services. If you are someone who likes direct contact with a stylists this may not be the route for you. HOWEVER! They offer very low minimum spend (5 services) and no charges for travel as long as your getting ready location is in the suburbs. This was perfect as I had a small bridal party and minimal family members interested in getting hair or makeup done. Also, their prices were very competitive. I worked with Sam for makeup! Sam did a great job asking the right questions, applying the right looks for people who usually wear minimal makeup, and checking in to ensure what she was doing was liked. Everyone felt very much like themself and makeup lasted all night. For hair, I worked with Alex! Between my trail and wedding morning, it took Alex and I some time to get to my final wedding look. She was patient with me but had some difficulties interpreting my vision. I can 100% say that it was all worth it in the end because i LOVED my hair. I felt like myself and it held all night. My other girls also enjoyed their hair and really felt heard by Alex. Lastly, I recommend to Style on Site to shoot for consistency with their clients. Having discussions with my friend, the offerings and accommodations were very different between our two experiences.
