Lasting Luxe Hair and Makeup Artistry

elle was so kind and helpful and I am so thankful. I got so many compliments and felt amazing! Thank you again!!

adies for everything! :)

y all looked! Her team was prompt and organized. I've heard many horror stories of the hair and makeup running behind on the wedding day. Michelle and her team created a schedule months in advance to ensure everything ran smoothly. It made the getting ready part of the day very stress free!

end her enough!

magined as well. They were both so sweet and so talented. Thank you guys so much!

at lasts through all the pictures and even through the sweaty reception dancing. The timeless and natural look they are able to create looks fantastic in pictures and you will be happy with their affordable prices and great work!

looks and got touch-ups before pictures if needed. Couldn't have asked for a better team!

air and make up. I would highly recommend Lasting Luxe!

p for all of my bridesmaids as well as my mom and mother-in-law. Everyone absolutely loved the way their hair and makeup turned out and both lasted all day and night!

lasted well into our NYE wedding. I would highly recommend using them.

ble to get exactly the look they wanted for hair and makeup. My make-up was beautiful and lasted all day; I felt beautiful and natural! For my bridal hair I was underwhelmed. We tried two trials before the wedding to get a style down and I wasn't pleased either time I went home. On the day of I had to re-curl my hair as soon as I got to my venue; I have very fine hair and know it's difficult to work with, but when I curl my own hair it can last up to 2 days. At least 2 other bridesmaids had to re-curl their hair prior to the ceremony, and one of them was before we left the house. Overall, I would recommend Lasting Luxe, especially for makeup!

y how I imagined myself for my big day. I don't wear too much makeup on a day to day basis, so not looking like myself was a major concern I had. When I told this to her, she knew exactly what to do to make me feel and look beautiful. They stayed on their time schedule and every single girl in my wedding party loved their hair and makeup both which is a hard task to do! I highly recommend Michelle and Lasting Luxe for any occasion you want to look your best!

akeup lasted all night :) Thank you ladies!

t speak highly enough of this business and their talents.

pered and beautiful, and I received compliments all night long! I can’t thank them enough for their professionalism, and artistry!!!

ooking for quality!

tions or concerns that popped into my brain. For my 2/3/2018 wedding, Dena completed a range of hairstyles from up-do’s to loose waves – she can do it all. And Megan is a wonder with her envious supply of makeup palettes and tools – we all felt totally comfortable handing over the makeup-routine reins, and she knew just the right tones/colors/application for each of our varying faces and makeup comfort levels. Bottom line – we were all feeling 120% percent when we headed to the venue. Not only did the Lasting Luxe team expertly manage all the services we had requested for my wedding party (hair & makeup for bride, 3 bridesmaids, flower girl, MOB, aunt of bride), but they also helped glam up my grandma (as a last minute add-on), too! We all looked and felt like our best selves after being done up, and our hair and makeup stayed in place throughout the whole evening and looked gorgeous in our pictures! These ladies are amazing at what they do, and I could not recommend them enough for any bride – or anyone wanting to treat themselves – needing hair and makeup artists for their big day!

l. My hair and makeup stayed in place all night, enduring the crying and dancing with ease.

to my inquiry quickly. It was relatively easy to set up my trial as they have a couple of studio locations to choose from: I went to the one in South Tampa off Gandy. On the day of the wedding, Dena and Megan arrived early, set up quickly, and got right to work. They handled all 5 of my bridesmaids, me, my mom, and my grandmother as though we were their own friends and family. We all looked BEAUTIFUL. I've never felt prettier, yet I still looked like ME. At the end of getting ready, we were all laughing and having so much fun; it made getting ready such a great experience! I always a little sad when Dena and Megan had to leave! Overall, I'd highly, highly recommend using Lasting Luxe for your special day. They're the best!

hair/makeup become a reality and helped me feel gorgeous on our wedding day! I would hands down recommend Lasting Luxe to other brides.

getting ready. When you pick your hair/make-up team you don't think about how much they impact your process the day of! Lasting Luxe made my day, as well as my bridesmaids day, so special! Forever grateful!

id she make me, my bridesmaids and mothers look gorgeous, but she is the sweetest and one of the funniest girls you can work with. Thank you so much for making my day perfect!

was much lighter makeup and a blow out with some curls. They can do any type of hair and makeup and they do it well! They also bring everything you need so it is stress free for you! Thank you ladies for everything!!

came to the Hilton in Clearwater where we got married and set up everything there. It was SO relaxing and fun for the wedding party. I can’t say enough good things about Dena. SO responsive and SO accommodating. And did I mentioned how talented they are?! Thank you Dean and your entire team for making our wedding day so amazing and making us all feel beautiful!!

r and everyone looked beautiful. We were able to all pay separately for the services too. Something to note is that I had my first HAMU trial and ended up not feel comfortable enough with how my makeup looked. When I called Michele, she was so understanding and accommodating and fit me in for another trial even though it was right before the wedding. It made me feel so much better and I was able to not have a worry about it on the wedding day.

recommend Lasting Luxe to anyone!

w they looked, and the photos look incredible ! Dena was so lovely to work with, we had a great trial, and she took the feedback I gave with such a wonderful response. Dena created the perfect look for our beach wedding on the day... and the make up suited me perfectly, I felt like a princess! Thank you for your patience, professionalism and true artistry, I am so thankful we got to work with you. Kindest Regards Mrs Crallie

ough, and here's why: My makeup was flawless, FLAWLESS! And lasted the entire night. It wasn't too dramatic or heavy, and it wasn't too light either — it was perfect, and looked perfect in both photos and video. My hair was even more flawless and most importantly, it was my vision come to life perfectly. Michele executed my Pinterest hair inspiration beautifully (a braided updo bun with a flower hairpiece provided by my florist), and it lasted the whole evening, through dancing and the Hora and more dancing. Additionally, Michele and her Lasting Luxe colleague, Megan, did the hair and makeup for my bridesmaids too — I'm not exaggerating when I say she made them look their most gorgeous selves. One of my bridesmaids was being slightly high maintenance about her hair, and Michele was more than happy to try different things and find a style she liked — all while staying within our timeline. Most important, Michele is a total pleasure to work with, so sweet and open to hearing a bride's thoughts, concerns and visions. When I met her at my trial, I knew that I would be in amazing hands for my big day, and I truly was. My hair and makeup was literally perfect throughout the entire 12-hour wedding ordeal, which made for one less thing I had to worry about so that I could focus my attention on marrying the love of my life. I legit cannot sing Michele and Lasting Luxe's praises enough. Book Lasting Luxe for your wedding immediately — you'll be SO happy you did!

Beyond their skill, they were so nice and fun to hang out with! Which is important, considering they hung out with us for almost four hours on a big day when emotions were high. They were total pros- you will not regret booking them for any event.

p needs-- making me feel so comfortable and beautiful on such an important day! They do airbrush and single lash application.

ich took a little longer than expected since I wasn't 100% sure. They arrived at the hotel on time, completed hair and makeup on schedule with extra time at the end for touch ups. We all loved them to pieces!

d I am SO glad I did it - with a handful of pictures and a description of my vision, they knew exactly what I wanted and it was perfect. The day of the wedding, things were a little rushed (once again, that is all on me) and then my hair did not come together quite like the trial. They calming redid it and once I saw the pictures - WOW! It was even BETTER than the trial!!! Both the Dena (hair) and Megan (makeup) did my family and bridal party's hair and makeup and everyone looked amazing. I asked for an assist to stay until the ceremony was over, and they BOTH stayed to do touchups. It was such a pleasure to have them be a part of my wedding day and I cannot imagine anyone I would have rather worked with - Thank you!

o the hotel, set up quickly and stayed ahead of schedule all day. This is something I really appreciated as it was less stress for me that way! My hair and make up came out amazing, and every single one of my bridesmaids LOVED their hair. I have already had 2 engaged friends ask who did my bridal look because they loved it so much. I had somewhat of an idea what I wanted, but I basically gave them several photos of ideas and they turned it into reality with what would work with my style, dress, complexion, etc. They were completely amazing and made us all look amazing. Can't recommend this vendor enough. Thank you for making me feel like a goddess on my wedding day!!

and flower girl, so Stephanie Jackson also helped with both hair and makeup and did a great job! I spent months researching hair and makeup companies in the Tampa Bay area. After looking at a couple thousand photos, I settled on Lasting Luxe. I ended up having two run-throughs and Megan and Michele were extremely accommodating and helpful. They listened well and relieved my fears when necessary. They are incredibly talented and my bridesmaids and family loved their hair and makeup. I highly recommend Lasting Luxe! Thank you for helping make my wedding day feel so special.

both again for making me feel like a princess that day!

at, everyone's hair and make-up stayed perfect. Not only do I recommend them to all of my friends, I just booked them for my maternity shoot!

Thank you, Michele!!!!

ut that what I asked for was not in fact what I wanted. I shared my thoughts with Michele via email, and she was completely on board with the changes, sharing that she wanted me to look like me on my wedding day. On the day of the wedding, my hair and makeup turned out to be exactly what I wanted! Her team did a great job executing diverse hair and makeup looks that reflected the personalities of my bridesmaids, mother, and mother in law, as well. I can't recommend Lasting Luxe's services enough for wedding hair and makeup!

g day. I highly recommend Michele for your wedding or event!

ho needed hair and makeup done, which is no small undertaking. Michele and her team showed up promptly and had everyone done in plenty of time for pictures before the ceremony! Not only did they work fast, but they were very good at giving all the girls what they wanted with their hair. Aside from my trial run with hair and makeup, Michele and her team had no idea what everyone wanted done, but they made it happen and everyone was so happy with their hair and makeup! We had a great time getting ready and hanging out with the Lasting Luxe Ladies! I would highly recommend them to any bride looking for quality hair and (airbrush) makeup at very competitive prices!!

looked gorgeous and perfectly done. I let my girls pick their hair styles so Stephanie created a variety of looks that were all equally beautiful! Everyone's makeup stayed on through photos and dancing and the hair held up as well.

I went with her to do mine and my bridesmaids' hair for my own wedding. She made each and every one of my girls feel special and unique in their own way. I have never felt more beautiful in my entire life! (And my husband also couldn't stop commenting on how beautiful I looked ). :) Thank you Michele for doing such an outstanding job!

he was nice and quick and everything just looked so great. Thank you for being so amazing, Michelle!!

to anyone.

bling thoughts and minimal pictures and create a look that was perfect for me. I loved having her with me, while I got ready on my Wedding Day. Her presence was a gift. Her calm demeanor and supportive words, helped me through the process. She is truly one of a kind. I would highly recommend contacting Dena for any special event. You won't be disappointed. I will treasure our pictures and the beauty she created.

nitely recommend!

vices for my wedding. I contacted several providers by phone and email, but Michele was the only one to get back to me quickly and who took the time to answer my many questions before scheduling a trial. This trial session was so helpful and helped me determine my hair and makeup look for my outdoor wedding. Michele had fantastic ideas and took the time to address my specific concerns. She showed me photos, asked me questions, but most importantly took the time to make sure she understood what I wanted. It was a fun and exciting experience. Michele offered to come to my home the day of the wedding, but instead I decided to have my hair and makeup done at her salon. Believe it or not, it was not stressful at all! She was on time and had scheduled everything perfectly so that it was a calm, relaxing, and enjoyable day. My hair and makeup looked great and stayed that way, even though the ceremony was on a boat in the hot Florida sun. It was so great to meet Michele and to have her be a part of my wedding day. I was so impressed that she is now my hair stylist. I would highly recommend her to any bride or person in need of hair and makeup for a special occasion.

desmaids. Every one of the updos looked so elegant but still trendy (not old fashioned in any way) and they held up all day and night! She was very quick and made all of them unique--no one looked the same but they were all equally amazing! I would definitely recommend her to anyone!

Florida in mid-August.. aka my girls and I were sweating bullets, BUT we all still had perfectly intact hair and makeup at the end of the day. Michele and Dena took time with each of my 9.. NINE.. bridesmaids and made sure they felt beautiful and pampered. Michele did both my hair and makeup and she did EXACTLY what we decided on in my trial. Working with Lasting Luxe was so easy from start to finish and Michele is such a gem. She made me feel so relaxed and calm while also making me super gorgeous. Guests from my wedding are still commenting on how beautiful the hair and makeup was for my bridesmaids and I. Truly amazing work by truly amazing women. If you are a bride in the Tampa Bay area, you have to definitely use Lasting Luxe. No stress, and the perfect work. This bride couldn't have asked for more.

ecommend michelle galletto!! She was very friendly and so much fun!! lasting luxe is the only way to go for your perfect bridal hair and airbrush makeup.

y ready before his "ready time" deadline. He told me that when things get off schedule on wedding day that it is usually the hair and makeup teams fault. Michelle and her team made sure everything was on schedule and that everyone looked amazing. My makeup and hair even stayed put and lasted the entire day after the wedding! She was even able to camouflage a large scar on my arm. I highly recommend her team!

u saw my pictures you would agree she did an AMAZING job! She was wonderful to work with!!! If you called me 10+ years I would give the same review!!! TRUST HER!!! Tell her what you want and express concerns....SHE IS THE BEST!!!! #theburkes2015

in her hands and everyone was so pleased!

my day perfect! Thank you so so much!

y hair and make-up done several time in the past by different people but always thought there was something I would change. Michele and Dena executed my vision to perfections!!! I LOVED everything about both my hair and make-up and wouldn't have changed a thing!!! Michele and Dina arrived at the hotel right on time and finished everyone ahead of schedule. They put everyone at ease and made the day so much fun. They absolutely exceeded my expectations and I'd hire them again in a heartbeat!!! A++++++++

their up-do’s and they did exactly what they wanted. They were able to give me the perfect look. My hair and makeup looked amazing and lasted all night. I would highly recommend using them for a wedding or any occasion. Thank you Lasting Luxe for being a part of my special day and making me feel absolutely beautiful.

ady earlier than we had discussed to make sure everyone was finished in enough time for pictures. The airbrush makeup left me feeling flawless and it lasted the whole entire night. I never worried about it. Thank you for making me and my bridesmaids feel so pretty on my big day!!

ll looked and felt beautiful. My hair and make-up was something that I was so nervous about because I could never find anyone who could fix my hair the way I wanted or do my make-up without me looking like a clown. When I found Michele and Dena my dream had come true and all my worries disappeared. They both did exactly what I had dreamed of and I felt fabulous! I was lucky enough to also have them do my hair and make-up for an extra photo shoot with my photographer the weekend after my wedding. Once again they they were able to create the look I was going for and I felt beautiful!!! I loved them so much that I travel a little over an hour to get my hair cut and colored by Michele and still use them for hair and make-up for family photo shoots. I HIGHLY recommend their services if you want to feel fabulous and beautiful for your wedding day or any occasion. I know that I will continue to use them no matter how far I have to travel. They are THAT good!!!!

lls, they're so pleasant to work with and were very professional; prompt response to communication, arrived on time. Very fair price for practice session and wedding day prep. Couldn't have been more pleased with the entire experience!

k and I new one day I was going to use them. When I became engaged, they were one of the first vendors that hired. I had to have them! When I met them at my trial, I felt like they were my long lost friends that I haven’t seen in a while. They are so genuinely nice!! They listened to my ideas and offered helpful suggestions when I wasn’t sure about something. The day of my wedding was just as lovely. We all laughed and giggled as Michele and Dena made us beautiful for my special day.

d and gave me the exact look I wanted. I loved the airbrush (which I had never done before). I was nervous to spend as much as I did on the total package, including the trial, but it was 120% worth every penny!!! You get what you pay for! I would hire these two in a heart beat for another occasion. Thank you girls so so much!!!!

beach destination wedding. I knew I wanted my hair and my bridemaid's hair up! Living out of state I wasn't able to have a trail run. Everyone's hair was STUNNING! My Makeup was AMAZING! Michele and Dena's customer service was TOP NOTCH they were awesome gals to be around! Thanks ladies and keep up the AMAZING WORK!!! GOD BLESS YOU Both!!! YOU BOTH ROCK!!

nitely use her. Amazing!
