I absolutely loved my experience with CBA on my wedding day (9/21) and they helped me out in a tight spot. I had originally only booked them for makeup (my regular hairstylist was going to do my hair), but in January she had to back out), I was panic searching for a hairstylist and then it dawned on me to ask CBA if they had any availability for my day. They only had one stylist available for the whole day + Shauna who would be able to do 2 regular hair and one bridal hair. Ms. Cindy did 14.. I repeat 14 people's hair and they looked BEAUTIFUL. AND we were ahead of schedule. How does a human do that? I had the pleasure of working with Shauna to collaborate on what I should do with my hair and makeup and she completely captured my vision. I wanted a little color (green) but nothing crazy and she absolutely nailed it. At my hair trial, I asked for an updo with a romantic feel, I thought it looked beautiful at the trial, but on the wedding day - EVEN BETTER. How she made it look even more amazing I have no idea. Mary, our Makeup artist, was so wonderful as well. She was so complementary and made everyone feel like a star. She worked so diligently to get everyone done in a timely manner but never made us feel rushed. She made me and my loved ones feel beautiful in every way and that's what you want on your wedding day. All of these amazing women were so calm and collected, and I had a HUGE party (1 bridal, 3 moms, 8 bridesmaids, 4 junior bridesmaids, flower girl, and a groom touch up) and they got everyone done on time / early. I was truly amazed. The day went by so fast I didn't get to share my gratitude with them. But if you get the opportunity to work with these folks, I highly recommend. As for pricing, some of the most reasonable pricing I could find. Wedding planning is really tough and I feel like companies will take advantage of folks because we put the word wedding in front of it. It is not the case here.

My wedding was last month and Shauna styled my hair and beautifully applied my makeup for my special day! She also styled my 4 Bridesmaid's hair as well. She did a WONDERFUL job and was very fun, friendly, professional, and kind. We enjoyed her services as well as chatting with her. I would HIGHLY recommend Shauna for any special occasion.

Shauna and her team were absolutely incredible. They were so professional and made everything so easy leading up to the wedding and the day of the wedding. I did my hair trial with Shauna a month before the wedding, and we were able to figure out how to do my hair day of. My hair could not have been more perfect; it was exactly what I envisioned and more. The additional girls Shauna brought with her were incredible as well. Everyone's hair and makeup looked so good!

Shauna and her team were so wonderful to work with, helping me and my closest friends feel our absolute best and most confident on my wedding day. Shauna took a lot of time during our trial to ask questions and get feedback to help turn my wedding day beauty vision into reality. The trial is totally worth it— I absolutely recommend that for brides. Their morning schedule was incredibly efficient, allowing us to sleep in a bit without rushing to meet the rest of our timeline. Both artists brought a friendly, enthusiastic, and positive attitude for our time getting ready. Booking was really easy, and Shauna answered so many questions as I finalized my service package.

Shauna and her team are AMAZING. The bridal, bridesmaids, and moms hair and makeup looks were all stunning. Shauna truly was a pro and I didn’t have to worry about anything hair and makeup related on the big day - keeping right to schedule and contributing to a fun getting ready morning. She really went above and beyond describing false lashes to my mom who ended up LOVING them - what a fun experience and memory I will never forget.

Shauna and Laura did an awesome job! Shauna was amazing to work with. She had incredible communication throughout the whole process; always timely with her responses. Shauna did a fabulous job on my hair as well as the bridesmaids. She went above and beyond to make sure we had exactly what we wanted done; asking for inspiration photos prior and the day of wedding (in case of changes). Laura came to the wedding to do make-up and she was fantastic! She did well with taking our inspiration photos and bringing them to life. I cannot say enough how great the CBA team is! Thank you to you both!

I just had a wedding and had Shauna do my hair / makeup! She did amazing and I got compliments all night!

Overall I highly recommend CBA!!!

Absolutely perfect! I did a test run with CBA in February 2024 and then my wedding was in May 2024. They took the few adjustments I request led and executed them exactly the way I wanted. I don’t wear makeup daily and CBA made me feel beautiful while still feeling like I looked like myself. They also did a wonderful job on the moms and bridal party.

Shauna and her team were amazing to work with from start to finish! Shauna is incredibly professional and delivers quality make up and hair services & has a breadth of experience making all aspects of her service seamless. She was always quick to respond in our communication & was incredibly flexible day of as timing slightly shifted. She also provided a calm and gentle presence for me during a particular moment of stress. Laura from her team also did an amazing job with my makeup and I felt like she took extra care (as if she was doing her own makeup on me). I loved working with CBA and would highly recommend them to any prospective bride!

I had the best experience with CBA and Shauna! I did the bridal package, and I’m so happy I did. Shauna was incredibly helpful with helping me figure out what style I wanted for my hair and makeup. Following the trial, I decided I wanted something a little different when it came to my makeup. I just explained it to her via email and day of, she knew exactly what I was envisioning and I absolutely loved my hair and make up! My mom and bridesmaids also loved their hair and makeup. Shauna has a great team of artists as well! Highly recommend CBA!

What can I say about Shauna and her team besides WOW!!! They are incredible at what they do. My bridal party and myself (the bride) looked fantastic. Our hairstyles stayed in place all day long. Not to mention Shauna is so great at communicating and making sure you get the best look on your wedding! The pre-trial for hair I highly recommend- you get to know Shauna more personally and I loved that. Thank you for making me look beautiful with my hairstyle!

Shauna and her team did an exceptional job at my wedding. Shaunas attention to detail and calming presence made me feel at ease and relaxed - something I will always be grateful for. As a true artist, she took the vision of my "wedding look" and brought it to life in a way that exceeded all my expectations. Immediately following my wedding, one of my bridesmaids called to ask if Shauna and her team would be able to travel to Michigan for a wedding, all expenses paid, which was a true testament to the quality of work and professionalism Shauna and her team perform. If I ever need to hire a professional makeup artist/hairstylist again, I will only hire Shauna.

She went above and beyond my expectations with my final hair and makeup look. She really took the inspiration photos I showed her and did even more than I had imagined. I would highly recommend working with Shauna for your wedding beauty!

CBA did an amazing job with hair and makeup for my wedding! I was instantly put at easy after my pre-wedding trial, Shauna did a great job listening to what I envisioned for my look and she had great suggestions as well. The morning of my wedding went so well, there was an organized timeline in place and the artists stuck to it, and all of my bridesmaids we so happy with their hair and makeup. I could not have been happier with how I looked on my wedding day and my look lasted the entire evening (Which was incredible because our day ended up being very warm and humid). I would 100% recommend CBA to anyone getting married!

We booked relatively late in the game but CBA and Shauna were so accommodating. We appreciate you so much!
