Girl With A Curlingiron

vous about hair and makeup and I’m a picky person. Shawna has a great personality and seemed very genuine. The genuine part was huge for me, and communication with her started to put me at ease. I was not allowed to have anyone come into my rental home, and the venue wasn’t sure they could accommodate an early check in, so there were circumstances to work through. Shawna went above and beyond. She communicated about my skin, the look I wanted, and all the details. She was at the venue early, has a calm but upbeat nature, and she did a fabulous job. My makeup looked great and the photos were awesome. I highly recommend Shawna! Hiring her was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding day.

trial about 9 months before. I had shown her a picture idea for some inspiration in what I was looking for and she nailed the look giving suggestions on how it would look best with my hair type. On the day of she made it look even better then at the trial. All my girls were thrilled with how their hair turned out. I love you Shawna! Thank you for turning me into a princess for my wedding day. I hope to work with you again sometime! <3 Katie

verdone and everyone looked amazing- the girls were raving about how great she and her partner were! Highly recommend!!!!

did she not disappoint. Shawna did my bridal hair and makeup as well as 3 of my cousins and maid of honor all on her own!! She is a magician! Literally! Thank you soooo sooo much Shawna! If you are looking for amazing hair and makeup, look no further cuz she is the BEST!

rived nice and early on my wedding day and took her time to make sure every piece of hair was in the perfect place on my head 🙂 My hair stayed “put” all day and night. Shawna truly made me feel and look like a PRINCESS on my wedding day and I cannot even begin to tell you how many compliments I received on my hair! She is, by far, the BEST hair stylist and I couldn’t be more satisfied.

my wedding day my dream look!! Love her!!!

th my hair and makeup for both and I loved what she did. I don't usually wear makeup so it was important to me to still look like me when she was finished and she totally delivered. The makeup was flawless and made me look great but didn't look at all overly done up. Her skills with eye make up in particular are out of this world. I still don't quite know how she does it! She's also just a wonderful thoughtful generous person who clearly takes pride and joy in her job. It made it such a pleasure to work with her. She also did my bridesmaids hair and Allie who she works with did their makeup and everyone looked phenomenal. On the wedding day they were punctual and kept everything on track which was great! Thank you Shawna!!!!

hen you are being photographed b) your hair/makeup team are the ones who set the tone for your whole day. They can make or break it. I booked Shawna for my Boudoir Photo session before my wedding. She NAILED it. And gave me all the confidence I needed for such an intimidating session. Her work gives you a look, but a look that accentuates your own features, not too over the top. And my hair looked like I had extensions, such amazing styling! For my wedding, she just did our hair. I wanted a tricky, clean & classic French style for my hair, and she got it perfect. The most important part of my experience with Shawna is that she was on time (actually way early) and when I walked into the room she was giggling with my bridesmaids and had lively music playing creating a great energy for the day. I have to also tell you.... the other person I hired for makeup did not deliver the same experience. They were very late and actually delayed my wedding day. If I had hired Shawna's team, I knew that would not have happened. You can put your trust in her to deliver everything you could ask for and more. She is also super responsive and professional, and just a total sweetheart. She truly cares for everyone. You will LOVE your hair and makeup so much, that you will want her to style every special occasion after... Thank you so so so much Shawna!

face and dress perfectly! She took out all the guess work when selecting a look and far exceeded my expectations! She's worth every penny and I look forward to working with her again in the future! Thanks again Shawna! You're amazing!!!!!!!!!

he does. So when I was getting married I knew she had to be there and she gave me and my girls hairstyles and make up better than any of us imagined and is an absolute joy to work with. My trial session with her went over 3 hours because she wanted to make sure I got my looks perfected before the big day. She came to my home and setup, which was super easy and then set everything up at our hotel suite the morning of the wedding. No matter where she's at she gets the best quality work. She's always super responsive to my messages (even with my texting of bridal hairstyle ideas for months!) and the entire process from contract to the end of the wedding day was the easiest thing I had to handle as far as wedding planning went . I cannot say enough great things about her, and I would definitely recommend Shawna to anyone who wants to look the best version of themselves.

all your hair and makeup needs!

air of eight ladies, and she got them all done in under the time we had budgeted, and made sure we were all 100% happy before she left. She's on top of her communication, will make you feel comfortable, and is fun to be around!

the last minute. She was such a pleasure to work with and she definitely made me feel special and important throughout the entire process. She is so much more than a hair stylist or make up artist, she has become a friend, and anchor and just an amazing person with a big heart that really cares about her brides. Thank you for everything Shawna! You're the BEST of the BEST!

Couldn't been more satisfied!

the industry and I would recommend her 1000x over. Thank you Shawna, I am debt to you forever for being able to capture my dream look and make it a reality on the best day of my life.

nprofessional) I took one last look for artists and stylists and one of my bridesmaids recommended Shawna. (she had worked with her before with another wedding) Shawna came with her amazing hair and make up set-up (she had an awesome make up chair and a light on top of her extensive make up kit) and I felt like an A-list celebrity! She took the time to listen to what I wanted done, viewed photos of what I was envisioning and asked some questions about my skin, make up/hair routine and about the style of dress I was wearing so that she could get an idea of what I wanted done and how it would best meet my needs. I didn't realize how much that info would contribute to the end result. It's like she read my mind and put the picture on my face and hair! She was no only professional but warm and friendly. I booked her on the spot! Even working with her before the wedding was great! She responded to my emails/texts almost immediately and quickly answered any questions or concerns that I had. I loved that she even put together a timeline for my wedding day for my bridal party so that it all ran smoothly. (not something I've ever seen done!) She showed up on my wedding day early, and with an upbeat, chipper attitude and chatted away with my bridal party while working and we all just loved her! (She even brought us some champagne to sip!) I was impressed with how even through all the tears, sweat and kisses, my makeup didn't budge and my hair remained in place the whole night. With my other trials, the hair fell within a few hours and the face and eye makeup didn't look very fresh after about 2 hours. Even after having cake smashed into my face and wiping it off, my make up looked pretty good! LOL She is a beauty GENIUS! Thanks so much Shawna! You're a miracle worker!

) but she gave me a lot of advice with wedding planning and helped me keep my cool. She always responded to each email and text within an hour, even in the late evenings when I knew she was relaxing. And answered each question promptly, no matter how silly it was. She was overly punctual when showing up for my hair and make up trial (and even brought along some starbucks, SCORE!), she took her time listening to what I envisioned and took ideas from the million photos I showed her and created a personalized look I ADORED! She even made appointments for me and my bridal party for the day of to help the day go easier. I loved how organized she is. She treated each of us like a queen and I felt so incredibly beautiful on my wedding day! I couldn't have asked for a better person to do my wedding hair and make up!! I would recommend her over and over to any bride that is looking for a professional, sweet and talented person for their wedding! Thank you Shawna! I can't wait to call on you again when it's time for my maternity shoot! <3

ge bridal party of 11 ladies along with my mom and our wedding officiant the day I was married. It was an out of town wedding and they showed up punctually, energetic, organized and ready to work bright and early. Needless to say, everyone was completely satisfied with the outcome and I hope to book her again in the future to doll me up for pregnancy photos when the time comes! Shawna is a very personable individual who made me feel so comfortable (like I knew her forever) the first time we met and also confident with myself where normally I wouldn't be when being the subject of so many pictures and as the center of attention. Knowing that the feeling I have when I look back at all the pictures of the recent events in my life are that I wouldn't have changed a thing is an amazing feeling indeed and I credit my hair and makeup artists for having a huge hand in that! Thank you, Shawna and Team for all your outstanding MAGIC! I will highly recommend you to whomever I can whenever I can! You are a fabulous artists!

e, and unbelievably talented. I knew I wanted hair extensions for the day of the wedding, but I knew nothing about them. Shawna met with me at a beauty supply store, color matched me, and helped me find the exact extensions I needed. She did my wedding trial the day of my engagement shoot, carefully listened to my thoughts and helped me shape my vision. She was also fully prepared with glam equipment and made me feel like a rock star in my own home. She is simply what you need for your wedding day without a doubt. Do yourself a favor, call her immediately and check hair and make up off your list.

the light within me shined brightly, and I felt like my authentic self on my special day. She was attentive, sensitive to my requests and a genuine gift of hidden talent. She did my wedding day make-up, as well as hair for my bridesmaids. We all had such a blast together and I know I look fondly on the time before the ceremony/reception with her and my girls! Also! I wanted to mention-THIS girl-Shawna was such a valuable part of my wedding day celebration. After the ceremony-which as you know can be very emotional- Shawna was waiting for me outside (before pictures) to dry my tears, and re-apply make-up as needed. I looked, and felt gorgeous the ENTIRE day. Thank you dear- so much love to you and your endeavors.

ommend her to anyone!

time she was working on me. Definitely helped take some of the wedding day jitters away for a while. She made me and my whole bridal party look so beautiful! She even did my mom's makeup at the last minute and wow, I have never seen my mom look so incredible! (don't tell her I said so, but it seriously took 10 years off her face! lol) I will absolutely be recommending Shawna to everyone getting married or just needing some beautifying! Thanks Shawna!!!!!

My husband wished I could take her with us when we travel around the world for weddings because she makes me so happy with what she does.

na around everyday! My mom looked AMAZING, she was so gorgeous. Shawna set up a trial a few weeks before the wedding, and it was an instant connection. She is so personable, professional and sweet. I am SO glad I found her and I look forward to hopefully working with her again! HIGHLY recommend!

ch out for her services - I assure you you will be pleased!!

res I knew this is the girl I wanted. I called her and she had me come in for a trial at her house. Shawna was such a warm and knowledgeable person. I usually wear very minimal makeup so my main concern was looking like myself. When Shawna was done, I looked at myself in the mirror and I was so unbelievably happy with the results. I looked so beautiful. My face and skin looked incredible and my eyes. My eyes were amazing!!! And my hair looked so touchable and beautiful! I knew right away this was the makeup/hair person I had to have! The day of my wedding, Shawna and another artist Allie had to do 8 people. She came, set up and started right away. I loved it. She made my bridesmaids look amazing. They were so happy with the way they looked. As a wedding present, I treated my mom to get her makeup done. My mom has NEVER worn makeup in her whole life (this is a true statement!) So obviously, I was a little concerned how she would feel. She was uneasy at first but once Shawna started on her, my mom felt like a queen. When she was done with her, my mom said she has never felt so beautiful in her life. That moment was so priceless for me. When Shawna got to me I was so nervous. Not for Shawna doing my makeup & hair, but I felt so many emotions as the hours were counting down to the wedding. Shawna calmed me down and talked me through it. I was so happy to have her there. Once she was done with my makeup, I truly felt like a bride and that this was the best I had ever looked in my life. Shawna has such a talent. I am the first of my friends to get married and I will highly recommend her. She made my wedding day :)

gical. I have to give her the biggest shout out for my wedding makeup. She made me look flawless. She took her time making sure my makeup was perfect. I wore the make up from 11AM-2AM and everything stayed perfect. In my pictures you can't tell if i just got my makeup done or if I was wearing it for hours because it looked that good. I showed her a few pics of what I wanted and bam she did it to the T!!! Overall I 100% recommend her!!! And I can't wait to use her for my next event!!!

as very professional and great personality. She was also very easy to book and great prices for the great work she did. Will definitely use her again and highly recommend her

h of her client's personal style. She is very versatile and can deliver in both hair and makeup. I highly recommend Shawna for all your hair and makeup needs for any occasion!!

son and makes you feel like you and her have known each other your whole life. My bridesmaids and I all felt so beautiful! (With the risk of sounding gross, I didn't wash my face before bed that night and when I woke up the next morning, my makeup and hair still looked amazing! Alllllmost went out to brunch without taking it all off/down haha) Did I mention she's doing the hair and make up for my maternity shoot in December?? ;) Thanks Shawna!! *muah*

me. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the products that she was using, which is good because I have sensitive skin. I will highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to feel valued and beautiful because that is what she excels at.

rl has one sweet setup! She came with a kit of every cosmetic you could imagine, a comfy makeup chair and a huge professional light for perfect makeup! She even took professional photos on her huge camera! (Almost hired her for wedding photos lol!) She took the time to listen and check in along the way to make sure I liked how it was turning out. I loved how detail oriented she is and how she took her time listening to make sure I got exactly what I wanted. I never felt more beautiful!! (Well, except for on my wedding day!) Out of all the people I had to work with in this planning process, Shawna was one of the few that I grew close to as we spoke often. I will recommend her to anyone who is getting married! I loved how I looked! She is now my go-to beauty person whenever I have an event to go to! She will come to you wherever you are and make you look (and feel!) FABULOUS! Thanks again Shawna!!

sister-in-law. Her work was absolutely stunning! It was a true pleasure to have had the opportunity to work with Shawna! Thank you for helping to make the most memorable day of my life so special!
