Katelyn is unbelievable. Not only did she do a total of 10 girls hair on my wedding morning with time to spare, for my hair she did a completely different look from my hair trial a...
nd did so flawlessly. I even had her cut my extensions. My hair was stunning front and back and held up even after I took photos outside in 20 - 30 mph winds. Katelyn was also such a fun person to work with throughout this process. I wish I could have her do my hair every day.

I’m in tears writing this, Kate was an absolute DREAM. I’m an out of state bride and I was so unbelievably stressed about booking hair because I was not going to be able to...
do a trail run. She gave me nothing but reassurance that everything was going to be ok. I told her My most important person getting her hair done was going to be my mom who was extremely insecure about how much hair she has lost due to cancer/hormone medication, she listened to my mom and responded so kindly to her, my mom looked and felt absolutely beautiful and that’s all that mattered to me. Kate’s vibe was nothing short of incredible. The minute she walked in I felt like I had known her for forever, I would recommend her over and over and over again.
Katelyn was amazing to work with and I was super happy with how everything came out! I had 9 girls including myself needing hair done for my wedding and she finished in just about ...
5 hours, including touch ups as needed. Everyone loved their hair and looked amazing. Katelyn was also very communicative leading up to the day and her new studio is gorgeous! I would highly recommend booking Katelyn and Blinked to Beauty for your event!!

re, and the most beautiful. When I booked her I also booked a makeup artist Samarie, Samarie makeup skills helped not only me (the bride) feel the most beautiful I have ever felt but the rest of the bridal party as well. She is a master of seemless blending, and flawless skin. Both of these women I would recommend over and over again, they were kind, respectful and were apart of making my wedding morning feel peaceful, run smoothly and be everything I could have wished for and more. Thank you both for your hard work, dedication and talents!

ccommodating and created the most PERFECT updo that lasted the whole night, no frizz or pieces falling out!

I would recommend Katelyn to anyone that is looking for a great hairstylist who is easy and fun to work with!

rent but gorgeous hair styles. She is a true artist as my hair was a freaking work of art. She's so kind and welcoming and her studio in RI is gorgeous and so fun. I'll admit I was a little nervous on the day of my trial but she completely put me at ease. The morning of the wedding was chaotic with my big crew but she handled everyone with compassion and grace. ALL the ladies were happy with their hair. My hair was a freaking work of art - when she finished my eyes welled up with tears because I'd never felt more beautiful. AND it stayed the whole night and was gorgeous. I got so many compliments. I can't recommend her enough. Seriously - do yourself a favor and book her!!

Katelyn is AMAZING. 5 stars is not enough. I was scrambling trying to find someone to do my hair for my wedding. I had to plan my wedding in 3 months because my mom was terminally ...
ill with stage 4 lung cancer & I wanted her to be there for my wedding day. It was just myself & my mother in law that would be getting our hair done as I did not have a bridal party. A lot of other places required a large minimum of people getting hair done, needed a large minimum of people getting hair done in order to travel to location day of & were way over my budget. Katelyn was more than willing to work with me. She was so accommodating, understanding, professional, kind & personable. It was an absolute pleasure to have her as apart of my wedding day. She even took one of my most favorite videos of my mom & I together. & not to mention she knocked my hair out of the park. It was legit PERFECT & it stayed all night long. Just do yourself the favor & hire her already. Love you Katelyn!

I used Blinked to Beauty for my hair(Bride) and 2 bridesmaids out of my 9 (they had a choice on professional or themselves) We all loved our hair. My MOH kept questioning her on if...
she could do the style and trend that she wanted. She was professional and prove to my MOH that could. I loved my trial with her and was able to pinpoint what I wanted different/same for the wedding. Though I know I was very awkward during our first meet up.My only regret was I didn't go my makeup with them. She even helped my cousin that has a pixie cut Style her hair even though it wasn't paid for and was out of the kindness of her own heart. Drove from RI to CT where the wedding vendor was taken place and fit in so we'll with the rest of the girls that you thought of her as a friend and not a vendor. Even posting on her social media alot of vendors dont seem to post plus size brides/people and I have been posted many times.I could recommend Katelynn and her team enough
