Beauty by Jillian made me and my party feel more than beautiful for my wedding! She was fast and efficient, while making sure that she was able to meet the needs of each individual...
persons skin type. I can only highly recommend her for any event you need services for.
When looking for a hair and makeup artist for my wedding, I had no idea what to expect because I don’t wear a lot of makeup but looking back now that is Jillian’s bread and butter!...
From the very beginning, she was super easy to talk to, made me feel reassured and walked me through every part of the process. The morning was so easy going with Jillian while I was having fun hanging out with my girls. I thought we might be running a little close to on time until she finished up with everyone and I looked at the time and it was 10:45am! A full hour and 15 minutes ahead of schedule! All throughout the night, I had multiple people ask me if my makeup artist stayed to do touch ups before the reception, and no, Jillian's makeup skills are just that good that it stayed all night in the hot August heat! If you are looking for someone to do your hair and/or makeup for ANY event, I would highly recommend Jillian!

I cannot recommend Jillian enough for bridal hair and makeup!! From our initial trial to my wedding day, she was nothing short of amazing. During the trial, we made a few adjustmen...
ts to perfect the look, and she executed it beautifully on the day itself. Not only did she bring my vision to life, but she also did my bridesmaids' hair beautifully!

I went with a classy, slick look. Everything about my hair and mu for the wedding was amazing. She even made some changes between the trial and wedding to make the look top my inspiration pics!!
My bridesmaids had nothing but good things to say and everyone has raved about how good all of our hair and mu looked.
Don’t think twice, just book Jill. You won’t regret it!!! ❤️

the sweetest person who made us all feel relaxed and taken care of on the wedding day. My wedding was outdoors and my hair survived all of the elements, survived the reception shenanigans, and was still in tact the next day when we got up and went kayaking. (Yes I slept with my hair still up, sometimes you do what you gotta do after partying all night lol, but it did survive!) I could not have been happier with the results and whole heartedly recommend Jillian to anyone looking for a hair stylist for their wedding!
Jillian did my hair and makeup, as well as the hair and makeup of the mother of the bride, mother of the groom, and my sister-in-law. She did such a great job on our hair and makeu...
p- my hair stayed perfectly all night and did not fall at all- even with a ton of dancing and a rainy day! She was so fun to be around that morning and made me feel so at ease- it truly felt like she was just one of my friends there hanging out! I would definitely recommend Jillian to anyone needing hair/makeup on their wedding day!
I would 100% recommend Jillian. She did my hair, my MIL, and hair for my bridesmaids and travelled to location for my wedding in Hermann, MO. She easily adjusted my hair from my tr...
ial, and it turned out so lovely on the day in a loose cascading boho braid. She even put in the loose flowers in my hair that my florist had provided. My hair shockingly held its curl and form, no pieces fell out. My MIL had a trial and Jillian was very accommodating and tried several styles until they landed on one that gave her a lot of volume. She was very quick, we were ahead of schedule. Definitely book her if you're thinking about it, she is lovely.
Finding a beauty artist was overwhelming for me as I know nothing about it. I somehow stumbled across Jillian’s page and there was something about it that just felt right. I reache...
d out and she responded SO fast, and was extremely responsive throughout my whole wedding planning process. She’s probably the nicest person I’ve ever met! She’s genuine, real and bubbly! I had a big group of girls and her additional stylists were amazing as well! They all did amazing work and made us look so beautiful. If you’re thinking about booking Jillian, do it now!! You do NOT want to miss out on her and her team.

llian just did her thing. All of the hair and make up turned out beautifully and was breathtaking in our photos. She did what everyone asked and made us feel our most beautiful. I got many, many compliments, including one that was "you look like a bridal model" and I am by no means a model :), but I know it was because of Jillian's handy work. She made me look classic but still look like me. I felt confident and beautiful and I would highly recommend Jillian to anyone needing these beauty services.

She constantly checked on me to make sure I was not stressing and helping keep my nerves at ease on my big day. I couldn't recommend her enough!
