DSM Salon did an excellent job with our hair and make up. Hair stayed all day and make up did not feel caked on my face!
dsm salon did a great job on hair and makeup for my wedding day. Britney was so helpful in getting everything organized for my wedding day. She even helped me set up an appointment...
to get my hair prepped the day before the wedding. Kasey, Chloe, Shelby, and Nicole were my bridal team for myself and my bridal party the day of the wedding. Kasey did my hair for my wedding day and my hair held up beautifully the whole day. Shelby did my makeup and it was exactly what I asked for. My bridesmaids hair and makeup looked beautiful. The whole team did an amazing job on the wedding day! I'm so happy I picked dsm salon for my wedding day and would highly recommend to anyone.
We had a good experience! The girls were fun to work with! The only thing I wish was seeing the total break down of cost before the day! Including the travel fee and taxes.
I hired DSM Salon & Spa for wedding hair and makeup for myself, my bridesmaids, and moms for my wedding. I would like to start by saying that Kasey. who did my bridal hair, was AMA...
ZING. At my trial and on my wedding day she made sure my hair looked beautiful and exactly how I wanted it. However, the rest of the experience was terrible. The salon makes you pay a fee for a concierge if your wedding party has more than 5 receiving services (this is before you pay for the services or travel fees), but this does not mean you get extra help. I was upfront about how many people would need hair and makeup and when we could start but kept having to add stylists and add hours in the last couple months before the wedding, making budgeting a challenge. I was told trial booking wouldn't be a problem and then couldn't get in without coming twice until less than two weeks before the wedding, which conveniently was after it was too late to back out. I didn't get to see my makeup trial at all until it was finished, and the stylist went home for the day even though I didn't like it. My eyes were shadowed black and my face was in foundation about two shades too light. I ended up having to pay the salon for makeup they didn't do on my wedding day and pay a different salon to come in to do my makeup because I was told they couldn't do the makeup I wanted. I wanted standard bridal makeup that looked similar to the portfolio photos they showed me when booking. On the wedding day, one bridesmaid had to wipe her face completely and have another bridesmaid do it and another told the stylist to stop partway through, and she finished it herself later. Hairstyles were inconsistent depending on which stylist did it. Their prices are too high for this type of service, and it was disappointing that stylists were unable to adapt to feedback given to them while the services were given. I would not recommend choosing this salon for your wedding services.
dsm salon & spa was great to work with. Britney was extremely responsive and day of, everything was timed out perfectly to help keep us on schedule. Highly recommend!

ended an amazing makeup team for our large party!! Rachel, Nicole & Madelyn were amazing to work with on my wedding day - all of the girls loved their updos and could not have been happier! So thankful for this team!!
Absolutely loved my hair + makeup! The gals were so personal, easy to communicate with, and great at their jobs! Cannot thank them enough!
The girls did a wonderful job with everyone’s hair and makeup! Rachel did a great job making sure I was 100% happy!
First off, Rachel is one of the sweetest people you will ever meet. She’s a total rockstar at bridal hair and makeup. I was nervous going in for my trial because I don’t typically ...
wear a lot of makeup. However, she put all my nervousness at ease as soon as she started and we began chatting. There’s nothing better than having services completed by someone who is so easy to get along with. We had a bridal party of 5 total, and her and the amazing Shelby were right on time, and extremely efficient. You could tell this wasn’t their first rodeo, and they were extremely professional. They also know how to have a good laugh. We watched the office while getting ready, which I’m sure is not typical, but it was great. We absolutely loved working with them! Britney, who is in charge of the bridal team was also easy to work with, and awesome at communicating. I would highly recommend booking with DSM Salon and Spa for your wedding party!
dsm salon and their team helped me feel my best from my wedding day. My entire wedding party had their hair and makeup done at the salon and everyone what exceedingly pleased with ...
the result. Corey was my stylist for both and was a joy to work with both for the trial and day of. I received so many compliments on my hair and it held up ALL DAY as did my makeup. The salon was a wonderful spot for the morning-of and kindly set up for us to have a pastry and coffee bar (La Mie is right next door). Corey also gave my mom and aunt a little spritz and style - just because. It's the small things that make dsm salon a great spot and I really appreciated their timely, professional, and thoughtful attitude.

he cared about my hair as much as I did that day. He even talked about how he had been thinking about my up-do after the trial and had figured out ways to make it look even better. Their pricing was right in-line with other salons around the metro as well.

edule while also making sure everyone looked great. I also appreciated their flexibility in allowing each guest to pay individually, rather than requiring us to put all the services on one card. Highly recommended!

at we wanted, and our hair and makeup stayed all day and night! We had a group of 8 of us getting hair and makeup done, so they had multiple team members working with us.

My entire wedding party loved their hair for the big day! Fun atmosphere! Will be suggesting to future brides!
