I reached out and did not receive a response for about a month. By the time I finally heard back, I had already moved forward with another vendor due to the delay. When I let them ...
know, they responded by saying we had “wasted their time,” which felt unprofessional given the lack of communication. Communication is really important when planning a wedding, so I would recommend confirming responsiveness before booking.

w she would be the perfect addition to our getting-ready crew on the morning of the wedding.
She and Nicole put everyone at ease and styled each of the ladies’ hair in about 20 minutes. My bridal hair took less than 30 minutes and turned out absolutely beautiful! Even with a bridal party of 11 bridesmaids, my mother-in-law, and myself, they completed everything in just three hours.
I am so grateful to Keri Anne and Nicole for their kindness, professionalism, and calming presence. They made all of my girls feel so beautiful on such a special day!

I could not recommend Kerri and her team enough! They showed up ready to go for my wedding. I had 6 bridesmaids, myself, flower girl, and mother of the bride to get their hair done...
. She came about 9 am and we were all finished well before the photographer needed us to be. We were not rushed and everyone absolutely loved their hair. I had the girls come with inspo pics and they nailed them. I wanted a few things changed from the trial and they made sure I was completely happy with my hair before leaving. It was perfect. My makeup was absolutely perfect as well. I don’t wear much makeup to begin with so I wanted a very natural look and they made it happen. I also want to add that a situation arose the morning of the wedding that caused some stress with the bridal party, but Kerri and her team helped to calm me and refocus my attention and energy. This was not their job, but they still chose to step in and make sure I was comfortable and okay before starting my hair and makeup. Anyone else could have gotten upset for being delayed, but they weren’t worried at all. I could not have been happier with choosing this team and would recommend them to anyone!

Keri was so flexible at changing who wanted hair and makeup leading up to the wedding. The trials for me and the services especially for the bridesmaids were very affordable. They did a great job with all of our hair and makeup the day of the wedding and they are so efficient and beyond friendly! Would definitely recommend!

mony (1:30pm), so Keri and Nicole were at our getting ready location bright and early and got through all 7 ladies in under 3 hours. Everyone's hair was absolutely beautiful and lasted well into the evening through all the dancing and wind (we rode into our reception on a ski lift). Some girls even kept it in the next day! Both Keri and Nicole were an absolute pleasure to work with. They are both so personable, easy-going, and a much needed calm presence amidst all the chaos of the morning. They spend so much time with me (the bride) to make sure that my hair and makeup looked exactly the way I wanted and I never felt like I had to settle for anything that I didn't love. I cannot say enough about them. If you are on the fence about booking, do it! You will not regret it.

does not pull from the perfection of the product. Her hairstyles and updos are gorgeous and maintain throughout the whole event! She did my wedding updo and other ladies in my wedding party, mother of bride etc. and all were perfect. Keri is so fun to be around, she is optimistic and a great spirit to have on your wedding day! She worked with me to create the perfect look I imagined for my wedding day, being very open to changes which she did seamlessly. I love her!! Definitely work with Keri for your next event!!

I asked all the girls to bring a picture for their hair and makeup inspo, and everyone got exactly what they wants (with Keri and Nicole doing touch-ups as needed at the end). My hair and makeup turned out beautiful, and everything stayed put after lots of happy tears, a dress change, and a ton of dancing. Also Keri and her team are some of the nicest people you will have ever met, all my girls LOVED talking to them while we got ready!

I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for amazing hair and makeup service at a good price.

K Shea and Company did the hair and makeup of 10 of my bridesmaids, my mother, mother in law and me on my wedding day on 4/22/2022! From the trial all the way up to the wedding day...
, the team was extremely responsive to all emails and very professional. I will start with the trial, it was a great laid back experience. They did a phenomenal job and asked repeatedly if I was happy with how everything turned out. I loved everything so much I only changed a slight detail for the wedding day which they noted and came fully prepared for, it was only bringing a smaller curler for a tighter curl. On the wedding day, they showed up early, set up and were ready to go. They brought a team of 4 professionals and finished 13 women, including the bride all in just under 5 hours which was the plan from the very start. Keri, Shea and their team are extremely personable, fun, and provided a truly exceptional experience for my wedding day. They made sure everyone was satisfied and I would 110% recommend them to all future brides.

as even flexible enough to add two more girls to the contract after I signed it because not all my bridesmaids could commit to the wedding at first. The morning of the wedding they arrived early and brought everything they needed. Then they quickly completed hair and make up for 6 bridesmaids, the Mother of the Bride, and the Bride in just a few hours! They finished the whole wedding party almost an hour early, which really helped de-stress the whole morning timeline. And not to mention that everybody was absolutely beautiful! Keri and Sheri have so much experience that they were able to personalize a look for every girl after hearing what styles they were inspired by. I cannot recommend K Shea enough! Book now! Don’t wait!

Keri Shea and her team were true Godsends for my now husband, Kody, and I, as we embarked after almost 10 years together on our wedding day. The morning came and Keri and her team ...
arrived early, they were prepared and professional, and immediately became part of our group. They didn't miss a beat. Keri was as lovely in person as she was online - out of all the people I interviewed for this, Keri was the single most responsive out of everyone (and not for lack of business - this girl is BUSY! Everyone wanted her, and now I know why... I feel so grateful she had a opening in her schedule for us by happenstance this hectic wedding season!) Anytime I needed something, she was there for us; answered all of our questions. There wasn't anything left unsaid or done which we needed or would have wanted. And, in the end, Kody and i looked like absolute movie stars, and, trust me, we aren't... we're both nurses. But Keri and her team made us look and feel incredible. We were able to feel confident and glow all evening in large part because of how good a job they did on our makeup. And that's to say nothing of the girls in our party! We had 12 people getting some combination of hair and makeup. Keri and her team were super detailed and incredibly thorough. They were quick so nobody got restless, and everyone got done in time to continue getting dressed and ready for the day. All the girls looked absolutely stunning and everyone complimented the gorgeous hairstyles (from short on our mothers to long and pinned beautifully on some of our best ladies). If we had to do this day over and over again, there's not a doubt in my mind we'd choose Keri Shea again and again.

Let me start by saying Keri and Sherry were my absolute favorites of ALL my wedding vendors and 1000% recommend them all day everyday!!! I was so nervous about literally everything...
and they both not only made me and my bridal party all look uniquely amazing, but they were each so awesome to hang out with, made us all feel so comfortable and familiar...I was about to ask them to stay for the party because they felt like old friends of ours!! And trust me, my gang can all be huge pains in the butt and we absolutely adored them!! Both ladies were also super flexible with whatever looks we wanted and so helpful for some of us that didn't really know where to start! Given that we all have vastly different hair types, skin tones, and widely different styles on top of that - they rose to the challenge and exceeded everyone's expectations! My naturally curly updo did not budge all night and neither did my make up w lashes! Super reasonable and clear on pricing, arrived early, finished everyone with plenty of time to spare, rolled with our hotel moving us between multiple locations for bridal suite mid morning, and just so freaking cool the whole time from trial to wedding day! I sincerely hope to have another occasion to work w them because I had the best time with these 2!!! If you get the chance to work with Keri or Sherry, TAKE IT!! You will not be disappointed - HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!! Thank you ladies so incredibly much and ALL my best to you both ❤️

ne and bridesmaids got only their hair done, due to time restrains. However, Keri and Sherri were even quicker than we planned which gave us all extra time to get ready. While cleaning up, Keri saw my mom and MIL struggling to do their own hair and said she had time to do it for them. When they tried to pay, Keri refused! Such a sweet gesture. They were professional and fun and my girls looked amazing, even after a 12 hour wedding. I received so many compliments about how beautiful I looked. They were so flexible and supportive through the pandemic and postponing our wedding as well. I can’t say enough great things about this team and highly recommend!
