Audra Rene Studios

someone else that has booked her. I went on yelp and searched for bridal hair in the San Marcos area and she popped up, went on her Instagram and liked what I saw so I contacted her and BAM! Booked! Normally, I'm VERY picky about my hair and given the fact that it was THE MOST important and special day of my life - I thought it would've been harder for me to find someone, but Audra's work spoke to me and her professionalism and quick responses to my emails were what really sealed the deal for me. Throughout the whole wedding planning process, Audra answered my questions and put my mind at ease. At my bridal trial, i felt like i was talking to a friend i hadn't seen in years. She was so sweet and easy to talk to. I was extremely worried about timing because I had 11 women that needed their hair done before 11:45 am the day of my wedding and I just knew the horror stories of hair and makeup running way too long and cutting into pictures. Audra gave me her word that she would have help and everyone would be done by 11:45 am. When the day came, her and Brittany were hair artist machines curling and styling away, but never compromising the look of all my girls. Audra even finished early enough to squeeze in my grandmother who wanted something done to her hair. All of my bridesmaids were happy with their hair and even better - each style stayed until the reception. My own hair was styled to the gods - romantic, full, & perfect for my wedding day. Audra listened and delivered, I wish I had someone like her around to do my hair every day!

wanted and my hair held all night long!

sant to chat with and made getting ready a very enjoyable experience. Everyone provided a couple photos of hairstyles they liked, and based on these Audra created beautiful looks for all of us. We were all thrilled with our hairstyles. They stayed in place throughout the day and photographed beautifully. Audra also did my eye makeup. She made sure that it blended well with the rest of my makeup. There was lots of happy tears that day – but everything stayed in place. I would definitely recommend Audra to any bride!

and tweaked the style a bit on the day of, which was no problem. Some of my bridesmaid's came with an idea of what they wanted while others did not and she had suggestions in regaurds to the weather and venue. Everyone's hair turned out beautifully and, more importantly, stayed looking that way throughout the night. Whether it's a simple cut and color or hair for an entire bridal party, Audra is not only an awesome stylist but someone who is a pleasure to be around during the process!

in the right direction for excellent extensions! We had a trial hair appointment that she graciously did for me on a Sunday (when she usually doesn’t work!). The day of the wedding she was early, happy and relaxed! She had an awesome schedule to make sure all the girls got through hair and makeup without a hitch. She’s clearly done this before, because the schedule was perfect timing! She had her iPad full of inspiration pictures so my girls could go through and pick what they wanted. She was able to make them all cohesive and unique at the same time. They all loved their hair and everything stayed put nicely. The flower girls headbands never moved and they never complained about bobby pins being too tight ☺ My mom has short hair and wasn’t sure how she wanted it done and Audra was able to come up with a style that she was very happy with! As for me, my extensions felt very secure, and my curls lasted until I showered the next morning, I don’t know how long they would have lasted had I not gotten my hair wet!! ☺ She was able to give me the down curled look while still keeping my hair out of my face! And, she was the one that recommended getting brooch pins for my hair as opposed to actual hair clips. She pinned them in with bobby pins. I couldn’t even feel them and they never came loose! She uses the best bobby pins! (and the yummiest smelling hairspray!) Not only was our hair fabulous, but she was such a help with everything else, from placing the veil, to hooking my longline bra, steaming the veil and dress. I don’t know what we would have done with out her! She was also able to squeeze in my brothers girlfriend since we had some extra time! She did an awesome side ponytail in just minutes! Because we had so many girls, she hired out the make up portion to Maggie Hansen who did a fabulous job, though I am sure Audra would have done just as well! ☺ Don’t hesitate hiring her, she does a fabulous job, is as sweet as ever and will make your day just perfect! It was such a wonderful feeling not having to stress about hair and makeup!
