Joanie did my bridal hair (as well as the hair of a few family members) on my wedding day, and I was beyond thrilled with how she brought my vision to life. We made some tweaks from the trial run, and I’m so glad we did — my hair held up throug...
h the entire day, and all night through the reception and my wild dancing. It seriously looked just as beautiful as the minute she finished when I got ready for bed. I also loved that she uses all organic products, so I didn’t have to deal with harsh chemicals in the hairspray. Joanie is truly a God send!
Joanie was incredible for my wedding. She kept in contact with me regularly leading up to the big day, and she was very helpful with my trial Hair and Makeup. Her salon is adorable and has great makeup and skincare products to try too! She and ...
her assistant arrived on time up to the mountain and did a great job with getting hair and makeup done for not only myself, but 6 other women within my family/bridal party in time for photos. Joanie's creativity stood out in the hairstyles she completed on everyone!
Joanie is THE BEST! She did my hair for my wedding and it looked better than I could have dreamt. My hair stayed perfect all through the day and night despite high winds and some rain. She took her time and used only quality products. The atmos...
phere in her salon is so cozy and welcoming. I live out of state but will definitely plan to get my hair done by her when I come back to town to visit family! I recommend Joanie to everyone! She also sells amazing products in her salon too!

Thank you so much for your kindness, I really enjoyed having you in to the studio, and I’m so excited to see your photos! I’m praying blessings over your marriage and your future💕
Any questions?
Joanie styled my hair and my bridesmaids’ hair for our wedding- she is incredible! Joanie is creative and does an excellent job of suggesting styles if you need a little direction. But she also listens, and created exactly the laidback & summer...
y vibe we were all going for. We all decided on such different downdos and it was so fun- I can’t recommend Joanie & team enough!
Response from the Vendor on 09/06/2022
Thank you for giving me opportunity to create, and for being a part of your special day! Everyone looked lovely, blessings over you and husband❤️
Joanie and her team were truly the ideal hair and makeup artists. From the beginning, I told Joanie we had a large bridal party. It was critically important to me that there would be enough time for everyone to get ready, and that the morning w...
ould go smoothly. Joanie was an amazing communicator-- Always accommodating and reassuring. Her diligent planning was obvious because the morning couldn't have gone any smoother! We got 11 girls through the hair and makeup tables with time to spare.
AND THE LOOKS! Everyone looked truly stunning, and loved their hair and makeup. My mom and mother in law felt so cared for and beautiful, and myself as the bride felt incredibly special. I couldn't have imagined a better person to provide such an important wedding service. I can't recommend Joanie enough, and would give her 10 stars if I could!

I am so excited to post the after photos, the sneak peek that I saw up on the mountain were absolutely gorgeous! Your natural curls with the updos was soooo pretty.
Thanks again for letting be a part of your big day❤️
She was great and very helpful!

Thank you for the kind review!
Joanie did such an amazing job doing my hair for my wedding.
Thank you so much Joanie!!!! I would highly recommend her, you will not be disappointed!
Response from the Vendor on 09/06/2022
Your photos were so stunning, I’m so happy that I got to be a part of your special day!
What a gem! I basically did a diy wedding and was super stressed/frazzled but she was such a calming part of my wedding prep. She was super sweet and Her salon is the coolest, and loved how she matched the look/vibe i was going for. I got sooo ...
many compliments on my hair and makeup!
Response from the Vendor on 09/06/2022
Everything went off beautifully, I was glad to be a part of it for you, blessings on your future!
Admittedly, I’m not big on doing reviews.
I Cannot even express what a savior Joanie and her team were for my daughter’s destination wedding. We were late finding a team because we had to reschedule due to Covid…so did everyone else. It took...
me 4 full days to find her. She made an exception for me and DROVE HOURS to help us. To say that it was absolute artistry is an understatement. The hairstyles…sheer genius. Her own line of organic makeup lasted like nothing else I have ever used in my 55 years. Brilliant. Seriously, buy her makeup. Her entire team were so sweet, kind, professional and helpful. Literally the best experience possible, not to mention that they are absolute sweethearts. EVERYONE commented on it. I had guests tell me not to touch my hair until it needed washing. Lol. My picky daughter was ecstatic and thanked me several times for finding her. Gratifying as MOB. To say they EXCEEDED our expectations is an understatement. We cannot thank her or recommend enough. Not to mention that she has the most magical mobile salon known to mankind! Just wow!! Our experienced wedding coordinator said that she has never seen such and went on about it.
Have no question on this honest business. I promise you that you will not be sorry.
Response from the Vendor on 09/06/2022
It was definitely an adventure on the wedding weekend, we had so much fun doing everyone’s hair and make up, and everyone looked so stunning!
Thank you so much for your kind words💕
Joanie was AMAZING! I stumbled upon her info on the Knot and her high ratings are well deserved. My mom and I did a trial for hair and makeup before the wedding and my mom typically doesn’t wear much makeup so was a bit nervous about it being t...
oo much. Joanie made her feel so comfortable and had her looking amazing! For the big day she was relaxed but organized and on schedule. I am super particular about everything and she gave me exactly what I was looking for. I had extensions added in and a partial up do and it looked so perfect. It also rained all day right up until the ceremony and she made sure my hair and makeup were ready for the elements. Everything stayed in place all night. Highly recommend J Amelias. Also- Joanie has a line of makeup that she makes and it was great. I plan on purchasing some when my bridal touch up kit runs out.

Oh Samantha, I loved having your mom and you come out to the mobile salon for your practice. And it was so fun to be a part of your wedding morning, everyone was hilarious and the food your mom made was delicious!

Joanie was absolutely amazing ❤️ Meeting up for my practice hairdo before the wedding, I was blown away by her travel business. I was also very happy she was able to come out to the hotel to do my hair the day of my wedding.

When Joanie agreed to do my hair and makeup for my wedding, my heart leaped for joy and tears filled my eyes. It was a little girls dream come true. She went over makeup colors to best bring out my features, and looked up hair styles with me. S...

Your beautiful evening church wedding was so gorgeous! Thank you for letting me be a part of your special day!
Joanie is incredible!! My wedding hair and makeup exceeded my expectations, looked fantastic, and stayed in place all night long.

I loved your family, and it was really relaxing and a fun morning! I was so happy to help you feel beautiful for your big day! Blessings❤️Joanie
J Amelia’s was so fun to work with!! My bridesmaids and I are mostly the sort of people who never wear makeup, and we were all nervous about whether we’d still feel like ourselves with wedding-day makeup on. Joanie set us at ease (and put up wi...

We were so excited to have Joanie do our hair and makeup for my wedding! The makeup was light weight and stayed put (considering it was 90 degrees out in September) and the hair was gorgeous. We did no do pre wedding hair and makeup trails but ...

Hair and make-up were a breeze on my wedding day thanks to Joanie and her team at J Amelia's. They traveled to my venue to do hair and make-up on-site that morning. Joanie and her team are incredibly kind and patient people. As the bride, I was...
able to meet Joanie prior to the wedding and do a trial run. She listened to all my requests and eased my concerns about my hair on the wedding day. My hair turned out better than I could have ever dreamed of! I look back at my photos and ogle at my hair and make-up every time. She incorporated my hair piece perfectly. Joanie's hair design took my bridal look from pretty to phenomenal. My bridesmaids were all pleased with their hair as well. Communication and payment were simple too! I highly recommend booking J Amelia's for your wedding- You won't regret it!
