Working with Rachel was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding! Rachel is my usual hairdresser in Springfield, MA, but I knew I wanted her to travel with me to my Cape Ned...
dick, ME wedding. She was more than happy to travel almost 3 hours away, and she did 8 people's hair (5 bridesmaids, myself, my mom, and step mom in law) flawlessly. She worked extremely quickly, but it looked like she spent hours on everyone's hair- everyone's looked perfect! Everyone was extremely satisfied with their hair. Working with Rachel was great not only because she is fun to be around and has a great personality, but you can also be completely honest with her and she will work with you until you are happy. She offers trials before the big day so you know exactly what to expect. Search no further for your wedding day hair person! Rachel is the one!

to the big day she was always communicative and quick to respond to emails. The reminder text she sent about washing hair ahead was great, and a nice comfort to know she was already ready and thinking about us for the next day. Highly recommend.

so I could dance comfortably. Rachel nailed it! I got a loose, low updo that didn’t budge or bother me all night. I was so impressed with how quickly she created something so perfect for me with the very little direction I gave her. I will definitely be seeing her for any future updos I may need!
Rachel has been doing my hair for almost 10 years so when it came time to pick someone to do my wedding hair, she was naturally my first choice. As always, she didn't disappoint! ...
My hair looked amazing and I received many compliments on it. I would recommend Rachel for any bride looking for someone to give them an amazing hair style for their special day.
