Carolyn Thombs Artistry LLC

ecision about my hair. On the day of, all of my bridesmaids and I were ecstatic about how our hair and makeup turned out. I would absolutely recommend Carolyn to anyone looking!!

was going for and she nailed it! I was so impressed by her professionalism, attention to detail, and talent. My hair, which is pin-straight and very flat, was curly and full of volume still the next day! I had requested a smoky eye and a bit of glamor. The look was stunning! She used a color pallet that complemented my eyes and made my facial features really pop. I HAD to hire her for my wedding! Leading up to my wedding, she was patient and kind and made sure that every detail was perfect. She came to me for multiple trials to make sure my look was just right. The end result was nothing short of flawless. I would write a novel for Carolyn if I could! My wedding hair was a very full low bun. I wanted an up-do but wanted to still have volume. My makeup was the perfect balance of “subtle-bridal” and drama. I looked exactly the way I had always dreamed I would. For future brides: I'm a woman who loves makeup and is very particular. Carolyn exceeded my expectations and she'll do the same for you. Hiring Carolyn will be the best decision you’ll make... other than marrying your husband ;-)

out the process. My HMU experience with Carolyn was so great that it convinced two of my friends to also do HMU for their wedding, even though they had not been planning to. 10/10 would recommend.

y if you have a lot of bridesmaids!). Carolyn gets to know you and your style so she can get your hair and makeup just right. We were just married in June, and already 2 of my bridesmaids have asked for her contact info so they can use her for their own/friends weddings. To quote my husband, "I don't think I've ever seen you look more radiant", and I couldn't have been happier! Carolyn, I can't say thank you enough for making my day extra special.

stens to what you want, which I think is very important with anyone involved in your beauty team. I’ve had makeup done as a bridesmaid before and when I would say “natural” I somehow would always end up with heavy eye makeup that I was uncomfortable with. When I first met Carolyn, it was actually while getting my makeup done as (again) a bridesmaid, but when I told her natural she actually delivered. I knew then that I needed her for my wedding in Florida, even if that meant paying a travel fee. So, so, SO worth it! It’s been a couple weeks since the wedding and I’m still getting compliments from guests about how good the whole bridal party’s makeup looked. I cannot recommend Carolyn Thombs enough. She is a great artist with a great personality. Really can’t go wrong!!

y receptive to feedback between the trial run and the wedding day; (2) She has mastered the “natural” wedding look and a wide range of hairstyles; (3) Her magnetic, joyful personality made every interaction with her fun and stress-free (very important on the day-of!!); (4) She did a fabulous job working with a wide range of hair types and lengths, as well as complexions of the bridal party. In short – look no further than Carolyn – she is the BEST of the BEST!!

ne loved it! Thanks again for everything Carolyn! I can't wait to work with you again!

ocess, and she listened to my concerns and requests. I was so happy with how I looked. (I had asked for a natural make-up palette and it came out perfectly!) Thank you, Carolyn. I so appreciated the chance to work with you.

e olive skin and dark features.During our email exchanges earlier I sent her some photos showing the kind of light makeup I wanted for my wedding and Carolyn more than delivered. My only bridesmaid was my sister and we had a little bit of family drama that morning. Carolyn was cool, friendly and super professional through this. She did a fantastic job doing my hair and makeup and gave my sister and I exactly the wedding looks we envisioned! I have never felt as beautiful as I did on my wedding day all thanks to the amazing and talented Carolyn! Not only is she an incredibly talented makeup artist, she is very personable, friendly and professional. We had a blast working with her that morning. I’d highly recommend Carolyn for anyone’s Makeup needs. She is super talented and a wonderful addition to any wedding party as the girls are getting ready. I felt like I was hanging out with a friend the whole time. Thanks so very much Carolyn!! :)

ir. She is very outgoing and really fun to talk to! She gave me the lipstick she applied on the wedding day and i was able to reapply the rest of the night. Carolyn is just amazing!

ible as I was planning the wedding from out of state and worked her schedule around mine whenever I was on time. I did not know what to tell Carolyn specifically about what I wanted so I told her "romantic" and from that word she knew exactly how I wanted to look on my wedding day. I was incredibly impressed with her during the trial and my make-up stayed fresh all day. It was the first time that I wore fake lashes and she made sure that they felt natural. The products that she uses are extremely high quality and helped my skin feel covered but fresh. Carolyn was adaptive to plans on the wedding day and would have done make-up wherever we needed her. She did the make-up for me, my mom, my mother-in-law, and best friend. Everyone looked beautiful and she made us all feel comfortable. She keeps a calm presence throughout the chaotic time period of getting everyone ready. I was worried about my lip color staying fresh, so she simply gave me the lipstick that she had used and told me to keep it--super perk! My mother was nervous getting her make-up done because it was her first time and Carolyn made her feel comfortable and beautiful. My make-up looked fantastic, especially in pictures, and stayed on and fresh for the entire night. I highly recommend Carolyn for individual make-up services and for large group/weddings! She is simply the best. - Annie Sabey (10-15-16)

hat you want, only have some saved photos or if you have no idea. She will talk with you to learn your personality and deliver an amazing look. She did this for me during my trial, my wedding day and with my bridesmaids. The products that she uses are top-of-the-line as is her professionalism. If you are looking for a hair and makeup artist for your wedding day (or any other special event), I highly recommend Carolyn Thombs.

aids and I loved her! I booked so late that I was not able to do a trial, but Carolyn was so accommodating. She was able to do an amazing job using pictures I had as inspiration and she used her expertise and talent to make my hair perfect. I loved my make-up- she did a classic cat eye! My bridesmaids were unsure what they wanted, but after a few questions, Carolyn got to work and was able to make them look fabulous. I highly recommend her services!

anges for myself a million times she worked with me without being frustrated (I know I would've been!). She made my bridesmaids look even more beautiful than they already are ... And she has fun doing it. An absolutely perfect choice!!!

I wanted to do with my hair. She was patient and worked with me to try different things to get me the look that I wanted. It all came through for my 'big day,' which of course was on a hot, humid day in July (and I have hair that goes limp easily). Her hair and makeup held up without having "helmet hair" and despite that I was sweating a lot during the outside pictures. I am so happy with her work! And my maid of honor is using her in her wedding, in case it wasn't clear that we loved Carolyn already.
