I have been passionate about the beauty and hair world since I was a little girl. That dream became reality in 2004, when I started cosmetology school. In my time working at one of the prestigious Jacques Dessange salons, I fell in love with both the world of French hairdressing and product knowledge. Since then, I have studied all facets of hair, traveling from the east to the west coast for education. I have studied the techniques of Heather Champman, Bumble & Bumble, Kerastase, and Jacques Dessange to name a few. Along with styling weddings, I have a spa and both a hair and skin product line.

Lacy did hair and Andrea did makeup for the bride, 2 mothers, and 6 bridesmaids for our wedding, and they did an outstanding job. They maintained a perfect, tight schedule, and yet each person they styled had a unique and flattering look. My mother in law actually felt tears in her eyes when she looked in the mirror with her hair/makeup done, because she felt more fabulous than she had in some time! Andrea also did my (the bride’s) spray tan, which looked very natural and stayed on through multiple days of wedding events. Black Label Society was a delight to work with, highly recommend!

Lacy did a wonderful job with all of my wedding party’s hair. She was willing to do whatever the person wanted done the day of the wedding. She did my trial for my hair a few weeks before the wedding and made sure that everything was exactly how I wanted it. She was able to make minor changes for what did or didn’t work with the trial. She was able to do any of the hairstyles by just looking at a few pictures. She was able to do the bride, 3 bridesmaids, mother, and one additional person's hair in a tight schedule and they all looked amazing. Lacy is wonderful and wants to make sure that your hair is exactly how you want it and you are comfortable with everything.

Lacy and her team did amazing work! Due to weather, I switched to an up-do on my wedding day instead of the half-up half-down we practiced at my trial appointment. I was a bit nervous making the switch from what we practiced, but Lacy absolutely NAILED it from only 2 example photos. She knew how to ask the right questions to make sure I got exactly what I envisioned. I was so happy with how my style turned out, and the wedding party hairstyles were equally gorgeous. Everyone genuinely loved the look they got. Lacy and her team were fun and easy to talk to on our wedding day, and we loved her positive and inclusive attitude.

The team, Luke, Lily, and Shana, from Black Label Society were the best group of people to have hyping our bridal party up while getting ready! Luke and Lily did an absolutely amazing job on everyone's hair and Shana had us all dolled up for the night! Hair and makeup lasted throughout the day and into the night. Could not be happier with the services we received from the team! Thank you!

I used Black Label Society for my wedding hair and makeup. Both my hair and makeup artists were wonderful to work with. They took the time to hear exactly how I would like my hair and makeup done. They came to my house to do the hair and makeup. I loved that my bridesmaids and I received lipstick to take with us to reapply later in the day. I would recommend!!

Black Label Society was absolutely incredible to work with for my wedding on 6/17/23. Lacy, Megan, and Andrea did such an amazing job on me and my girl's hair and makeup. When I came to my trial with some inspiration pictures, Lacy and Andrea took those pictures and made them come to life and the look was even BETTER! I also loved that they had me come in 2 weeks before the wedding to ensure the look was fresh in their minds to make the day of go even smoother. Lacy and her team were so nice and so efficient. They were also able to come on site of my venue which was so nice! If you are looking for a one stop shop to get your hair and makeup booked for your big day, Black Label Society is the place to go!

Black Label Society was excellent for my wedding day. We used Black Label Society for both hair and makeup. I was so impressed with their talents. They were so flexible with scheduling changes and time restraints. They also were so friendly and professional. They also worked so efficiently and completed my whole bridal party (over ten people) before 11 am. I was so impressed!

I worked with Black Label Society for my wedding in May 2022 and I would definitely recommend them for wedding hair and makeup! The contracting process seemed less structured than other vendors I worked with for the wedding, but it went smoothly so I can’t complain. At first, communication with the staff regarding scheduling and questions was slow, but it improved as we got closer to the wedding date.
Our hair and makeup trial appointments were a lot of fun and Maggie and Shana were so friendly! I would definitely suggest doing a trial if you’re considering hair and makeup for your wedding day, regardless of the salon you’re working with. We all felt that the results looked even better the second time!
On the day of the wedding, Maggie and Shana arrived 30 minutes early and kept all of us moving on time. Since there was only one girl getting hair done and one getting makeup done at a time, it allowed the rest of us to help set up and also relax. My curls held up all night and into the next day, and my makeup stayed on through all the tears. Maggie and Shana were relaxed and friendly and made us all feel so beautiful! I’m very glad I got to work with them on my wedding day.

Lacy and Cam were the on-site hairstylists and Andrea was the make-up artist for me and my party of four. They all did a beautiful job with everything. They were all super flexible and so nice to all of us. I had a trial for my hair with Lacy a few weeks before the wedding and she was super open to hearing about my vision, had great suggestions and guidance in terms of my hair and how it could be done/what might be best, and took a genuine interest in me and my wedding. I also had a trial for my makeup with Andrea the same day. She is so sweet and inviting, super friendly and open to your vision. I wanted something a little less traditional and a bit more colorful/bold and she was so excited to create the look with me. She also had great suggestions and guidance about it all, and was super flexible. Everyone was so awesome and it was a great experience all around.

Lacy has been doing an amazing job with my hair for years and my absolute immediate first choice to do my hair for my wedding. Even knowing how talented she is, I was still absolutely blown away by her vision and final result on my wedding day! She was able to take my personal style and ideas and tailor my hair to fit my dress and accessories exactly. Lacy was also exceptionally flexible and dealt with last-minute alterations and changes with ease! 10/10, Lacy made wedding prep easy, stress-free, and fun!
