5 stars and “the best ever!” is not enough to describe Ariana; there are not enough stars to describe how truly amazing she is. Ariana is 100% one of the most beautiful humans to e...
xist, personally and professionally. I found Ariana through my makeup artist for my wedding; she recommended her when I asked for a hairstylist. Everything from my trials to my wedding day, she was absolutely phenomenal. Ariana truly listens and makes everything you envision come to life; she always goes above and beyond and truly cares about how her clients feel. She knocked my trial out of the park and blew my expectations out of the water. She also does my hair color and made it perfect for my wedding day! I always leave her chair feeling beautiful and I couldn’t have asked for more on my wedding day. She made me feel so relaxed, she has the best energy and makes you feel so comfortable. She is incredibly easy to work with, answers every single question you may have and is super transparent and open. My hair for my wedding day was everything I wanted and more. Ariana is also my hairstylist and I do not trust anyone else with my hair. She is absolutely someone I would recommend to everyone and I am forever grateful for her!

I reached out to Ariana before my wedding, and she was an absolute lifesaver! Even with short notice, she was so responsive and kind, and she helped connect me with an amazing team...
who brought my wedding hair vision to life, and made my bridesmaids look picture perfect! Kristina and Tineia were the perfect duo who arrived on time, were super professional, and nice.
My hair turned out beautiful and held up all night, and my bridal party looked incredible too. Ariana and her team made everything so easy and stress-free — exactly what I needed right before the big day. I’m so grateful for their help and can’t recommend them enough!

Despite our late request for hair and makeup services, Ariana was able to connect us with two members of her team who were free on the day of my daughter's outdoor wedding. Chelsea...
, a very talented makeup artist, provided makeup for the bride and me (MOB). She really listened to what we wanted and the end results were absolutely perfect. In addition, she was an absolute pleasure to work with! Ahlyza provided hair services for the bride, MOB, and the entire wedding party, including the flower girl. Everyone was very happy with the styles she created for them. The bride's hair lasted until the end of the evening, despite the fact that it was misting outside during the ceremony. My updo actually lasted for two days! Ahlyza was also a complete joy to work with! Ariana communicated with us from the very beginning up until the day of the wedding. She and her team made my daughter's wedding day so much more memorable. They were all true professionals and a complete delight to work with. You simply can't go wrong when booking Ariana's team for your special day!

Ariana and her team were absolutely amazing from start to finish! From our first conversation, she was personable, realistic, and honest about what styles would complement my dress...
, my hair type, and the overall vibe I wanted.
At my trial (which I loved), she made the whole experience so fun, even coming to my parents’ house so I could get ready there. The trial style was perfect for my shower dress, but for my wedding I decided I wanted my hair out of my face. Ariana was so flexible and accommodating, making the switch without hesitation.
Planning hair for 11 people on the wedding morning was no small feat, but Ariana managed it flawlessly. She adjusted the timing since I’m not a huge morning person, starting with my extensions and my mom’s hair, then working through the rest of the group with her assistant. I purchased extensions based on her recommendation, and she styled them so naturally that no one could tell they weren’t my own hair!
Every single woman loved their look, with a variety of styles from ponytails to blowouts to half-up, half-down. Everyone’s hair literally lasted all day and night — through humidity, dancing, hugging, sweating, and even a late-night afterparty! My mom’s hair lasted well into the next day too.
I can’t say enough wonderful things about how much time, effort, and thoughtfulness Ariana and her team put into making me feel so special. She was truly awesome, and I would 10/10 recommend her to any bride!

Ariana is amazing. Not only is she professional, kind and truly cares for her clients but so is the group she works with. Ariana and I met at a bridal show and she stuck out to me ...
instantly. Amazing energy and a bubbly personality, what’s not to like? Communication with Ariana and her girls was simple and quick. She answered all my questions and helped me find the makeup and hair that I wanted for my wedding. Christina did my makeup and OMG it was more than i expected. She is a talented young woman and I highly recommend her always. Ariana even booked me with a woman who is a pro at bridal hair. Bryanna is just fantastic. She was there right on time and kept an open line of communication with me until it was time to do our hair. 1000/10 I HIGHLY recommend reaching out to Ariana to work with her and her girls. I love her so much I began using her as my hairstylist. Such a beautiful group of women with loving and fun personalities and the most beautiful energy. I never felt to beautiful! Thanks again Ariana and all the ladies she works with.
PS. My hair and makeup NEVER came off the whole night. And my girls said the same thing!! Geniuses is what this group of women are.

ht away. I actually went to Ariana before my wedding so that she could cut and dye my hair and we did a trial run before the wedding and I fell in love with the look she created to match the cut and color of my hair. Her work clearly speaks for itself, but she made my wedding day run so smoothly doing my hair and my bridesmaids hair as well.

create the perfect hairdo just by looking at a picture , and she is even able to incorporate hair pieces or flowers depending on the bride’s preference. She is able to work with bridesmaids that have all different hair types, and she is able to create the exact look that each girl wants. I would 100% recommend Ariana for your wedding!

My girls and mom all LOVED both of them and had a blast getting ready with them! I’m so blessed to have had them as part of my day. Please please please book them! Love you girls! 😊

y emails in a timely manner (pretty much right after I sent them) answered all of my questions, and kept reassuring me that everything would be fine! The day of my wedding her and the make-up artists on her team arrived right on time and honestly felt like one of the bridal party with joking around and helping with whatever we needed (even if it wasn’t hair/makeup). They are true professionals who truly care about the bride, and help make everything the morning of run smoothly. I now see Ariana on a regular basis to get my hair done. I am not a girly girl in anyway and I kinda just go with the flow with my hair, Ariana totally understands that without me having to go into much detail and cuts and colors my hair so I can manage it on my own. I do not trust anyone now besides Ariana do to my hair! She has been a life changer!!!!
