It is a long awaited honor to write this review for Lustre and Waves.
I met Calina, Elizabeth and Susita in September 2020 when they were working one of my best friend's weddings...
that I was in. Lo and behold, they did such an amazing job that MANY more of my friends hired them for their own weddings in the years to come. I waited patiently until my own wedding to hire them and four years since meeting them, I had the chance!
Before booking my venue and date, Calina was the first email I made. I had no doubt that I needed the girls as my get ready team. Luckily, it all worked out!
Lustre and Waves are professional, flexible and do an amazing job. They are warm, caring and have become friends over the years. Whenever someone gets engaged or expresses that they need a hair/make up team, they are the first vendor I suggest. This team made sure my large wedding party not only looked beautiful, but felt beautiful as well. Their calm demeanor helped my own nerves getting ready on that big day, and it was comforting knowing that at least one thing (my hair and make up) would go right that day.
I am forever indebted to the team at Lustre and Waves and I can't wait to hopefully be in even more of their weddings in the future (although, they truly have been the getting ready team for many of my married friends/family).
Thank you for everything!!!! I am so grateful to the girls of Lustre and Waves.
If you are a bride looking for a hair and make up team, stop now and hire them. I promise you won't regret it!
Calina and Elizabeth were a dream team! They were calm and relaxed and made the morning comfortable for all of us, especially when I got a migraine while we were prepping - they w...
ere so thoughtful and kind. We had 13 ladies for hair and 8 for makeup and they got us all ready with over an hour to spare!!! So efficient and gave us a ton of time for pictures and for me to spend quality time with my bridal party before heading down the aisle. I absolutely loooooved my hair and makeup and every time I look back at photos I continue to be obsessed with how I looked. Thank you both so much!! Highly recommend this dynamic duo for your big day.
Calina and Elizabeth were FABULOUS all around!! From the hair trial to communication and changes along the way to making me and my bridal party feel the best/hottest we've ever fel...
t, Calina and Elizabeth were the real MVPs. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants their hair and makeup to last all night. I had shown them some inspo pics from Pinterest and they knocked it out of the park. I will also add that both Calina and Elizabeth bring such a calming presence to the getting ready room. I hope one of my friends/family members hires them so that I can get beautified again.
We loved having Calina and her colleagues as our wedding makeup and hair providers. Having both services through the same company was so convenient, and they were so helpful throug...
hout the entire process. It was easy to schedule a trial online. Calina and Elizabeth are so experienced and were able to create exactly what myself and my bridesmaids were looking for. Calina was so flexible, even when we had to make a last minute unforseen change the day before the wedding. Would recommend Lustre & Waves to anyone!
What an incredible team of hairstyle and makeup artists. Their skills made this mother of the groom with various medical needs feel beautiful and confident. Their expertise in reco...
mmending an updo was amazing. The use of clean makeup products that did not cause an allergic reaction that lasted for the entire wedding was truly wonderful. Trust this team for all your events. They listen, are efficient, prompt and know what they are doing. True artists in their crafts.

lower girl looked unbelievably gorgeous! When I did my trials I had a bunch of things I wanted to tweak (all on me, I was showing them things out of my comfort zone) they were so sweet and happy to change things up the day of the wedding. I really appreciated their kindness and understanding because this was something that was really stressing me out. My makeup and hair were *chefs kiss* PHENOMENAL! I couldn't have asked for better!! Overall I am so so happy with my decision to hire Lustre and Waves and would again in a heart beat!
Calina and Elizabeth are professional, attentive, and made me and all my bridesmaids feel absolutely beautiful. They brought such great energy to the getting-ready process, which m...
ade the whole morning so much fun and stress-free. My hair and makeup held up perfectly through all the wind and humidity of a July day on the seacoast, which is no small feat! Truly an amazing team to have on your wedding day!
I had the pleasure of working with Calina, Susita, and Elizabeth for my wedding hair and makeup, and I could not have been more pleased with the experience! Prior to the wedding, I...
had a one-on-one hair and makeup trial that made me feel completely at ease. It was so reassuring to be the sole focus during the trial, and it helped me feel confident and prepared for such a special day!
On my wedding day, Calina and Susita worked together seamlessly on hairstyling, while Elizabeth provided exceptional makeup services. All three were professional, attentive, and truly listened to the preferences of everyone in the bridal party. Their calm and friendly demeanor created a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. Everyone looked absolutely beautiful, and the hair and makeup held up perfectly through hours of dancing and celebration. I'm incredibly grateful to have had such a talented and dependable team by my side for my wedding!
Calina and Elizabeth were amazing to work with from start to finish! They brought the perfect balance of being laid-back and professional, making the whole experience fun and stres...
s-free. Myself, my bridesmaids, and the mothers of the bride and groom were all thrilled with how everything turned out—our hair style visions totally came to life, our makeup looked incredibly nature, and we all truly felt our best, which made the day even sweeter!

e end of my wedding night despite the humidity. All my bridesmaids hair looked amazing and stayed in as well. My hair came out even better than I envisioned! You won’t regret booking Lustre & Waves!! Thank you so much Calina!!
Calina and her team did an AMAZING job on my wedding day. Her and her team were timely, efficient, so personable, and really did an incredible job with everyone's hair and makeup. ...
The team was so kind and really added to the morning, and everyone loved having them around and loved how their hair and makeup turned out. I was really glad that I chose them for my wedding day!

beautiful. All of my girls looked and more importantly felt gorgeous. They were not only timely but finished us ahead of schedule! I love the software and booking system that they use to keep everything organized and in one place to easily refer back to. So great to work with, I would definitely recommend. Thank you Calina!!
I am beyond thrilled with the work that Calina and Elizabeth did for me on my wedding day! From our first trial run to the big day, I felt completely confident that I was in the be...
st hands. Calina (hair) and Elizabeth (make-up) were so professional, patient, and truly listened to everything I wanted for my hair and makeup. They nailed the vision I had in mind, and really created a look that matched my personal style. I felt like the best version of myself - elegant, yet natural.
On the wedding day, Calina, Susita (additional hair) and Elizabeth were calm, organized, and efficient. They arrived on time, set up quickly, and worked seamlessly with the others getting their hair and make-up done. I didn’t have a bridal party, but instead my mom, mother-in-law, husband’s aunt, and my best friend/officiant were getting their hair and make-up done. Calina and team were incredibly accommodating with this, capturing everyone’s personal style while elevating them in the perfect way.
Kudos to the team too as my hair and makeup looked just as perfect at the end of the night as it did when I first stepped into the venue. I felt like I was glowing, and I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful and long-lasting look. The hair and make-up were also perfect for the pictures. I look like myself, but elevated, and the makeup and hair really make the photos pop.
If you’re looking for talented, professional, and personable hair and makeup artists for your wedding, I highly recommend Lustre & Waves. They helped me feel so beautiful, and I am so grateful for their incredible work.
Thank you for making me feel so special on the most important day of my life!

the morning of the wedding. The team put me at ease, helped me figure out a look that made me feel completely like myself, and were so fun to work with. They were professional and treated me, my bridesmaids, and the moms so well - I would highly recommend them for any brides-to-be!

n throughout the whole process from initial booking to trial to the big day. The hair and makeup stayed put and continued to look flawless throughout the whole night even after hours of dancing!! All of the bridesmaids were very happy with their hair and makeup too :) Thank you Calina and Elizabeth!
Calina and Elizabeth were absolutely fantastic. They made our visions come true and our crew looked fantastic!
Calina and her mother worked seamlessly to do the hair of myself and 6 others on my wedding day. I was impressed at the diversity of styles they were able to make look incredibly b...
eautiful. At my trial, calina heard my desire to have extensions for my wedding but I had little personal knowledge on the subject. She was able to recommend and provide a perfect color match of extensions that really helped me achieve the look I was envisioning on my wedding day. She was even able to go with the flow and cut off some inches from the extensions the day of the wedding when I was having second thoughts about how long they were. I am so grateful that I made the choice to book lustre & waves for my wedding! Thank you again calina!

Calina and Elizabeth are a small but mighty team! They are professional, talented, down to earth, organized, punctual, understanding, and fun. My experience with Lustre & Waves exc...
eeded my expectations, and my wedding day was absolutely magical.
From the initial booking to our final exchange, Calina was incredibly easy to communicate with and would always respond as soon as possible. Her project management platform is super organized (and beautiful!), and she’s very on top of updating documents, sending surveys, and updating invoices accordingly. I’m crazy about organization, so this did not go unnoticed. I really appreciated that aspect of working with them.
Elizabeth is a genuinely intuitive artist. She excels at effortlessly merging inspiration from photos with methods that suit your natural features to create a look that will make you feel beautiful, elegant, and even sexy. She is also incredibly flexible. After wrapping up at another wedding, Elizabeth offered to come to my wedding early. Since we had extra time, I asked if she could add a makeup application for my sister, and without hesitation, she said absolutely. I was so thankful and overjoyed that my sister could have her makeup done and would feel her best on this special day! Until my wedding, I’d never had my makeup professionally done–Elizabeth exceeded my expectations and made me feel like a total queen.
Lastly, I want to add a special note about something that set the tone for my experience with Lustre & Waves. Calina & Elizabeth already had a wedding booked on the same day as mine when I initially reached out, but without hesitation, Calina willingly came up with a solution to cover my wedding as well without compromising quality or timing at either one. The request could’ve easily been turned down, but she and Elizabeth very obviously love what they do so much that she found a way to make it work for everyone. This level of dedication, commitment, professionalism, and flexibility is unmatched in the industry.
If you’re looking for a New England-based HMU team, look no further and book Lustre & Waves right now!

Calina is the best! :)

n. Kara and I are both very simple and wanted to ensure we would feel like ourselves on our wedding day, while also looking "camera ready" and feeling beautiful on our special day.
On our wedding morning, Kara and I didn’t want to see each other before walking down the aisle. Calina and Elizabeth were incredibly accommodating, ensuring we didn’t see each other while still being able to be in the same area with our family and wedding party. It was such an enjoyable morning, and our families and wedding party were obsessed with Lustre and Waves. They made us all feel absolutely stunning.
Truly, I am beyond impressed and forever thankful for their talent. Calina’s mom, another hair stylist, even helped us steam our wedding gowns and bridesmaid dresses. For a morning that can be high stress, they stepped in, set everything up with ease, and had everyone’s hair and makeup done with plenty of time to spare.
You will not regret hiring Calina and Elizabeth. They are true gems with amazing talent. We are beyond thankful and grateful that they played such an integral role in our wedding day.
We will definitely be finding an excuse to have them do our hair and makeup again in the future!

I don’t know if I can find the words to express my gratitude for Calina, Elizabeth, and Susita. Calina and Elizabeth did my bridal trials, and were so patient and understanding. Th...
ey took my ideas and did my hair and makeup better than I ever imagined. On the day of our wedding, Calina and Susita were the DREAM hair team. Not only did they do an amazing job on our bridesmaids’ very unique styles, but they also helped out my mom last-minute when her curlers didn’t set exactly right. And Calina somehow managed to braid my very shy flower girl’s hair (which she then kept talking about how much she loved all day). Elizabeth is so talented at airbrush makeup and really listened to each girl’s individual style. More than half of my bridesmaids don’t wear makeup daily, and they were thrilled by the work that Elizabeth did. My matron of honor even said the makeup looked better than at her own wedding! Elizabeth also helped my mother and mother-in-law last-minute with their eyes, which looked incredible all night. I am so thankful to have found Studio 90! Thanks for making me feel like a fairy princess bride on my special day.
If you want a stress-free getting ready room, book these ladies. They did my hair, all of my sister’s hair, my mothers and my Mother-in-law’s. Everyone’s hair looked amazing and th...
ere was no re-pinning or fixing needed at any point, and we had a night wedding! I have never gotten more compliments on my makeup than after Elizabeth did my wedding look. They made us all look beautiful and feel confident. Thanks!
Calina and her team are truly wonderful. We had some scheduling challenges with the makeup trial so had to do the hair and makeup trials on separate days. I didn't totally love my ...
first hair trial and she comp'd a second trial when I came back for my makeup trial. She and her team did a beautiful job the day of our wedding, and responded well to my feedback from the trial on the big day (wanted my makeup to be a bit more natural). They were on time, so kind, and did a beautiful job with everyone: myself, moms, and my bridesmaids. Would 100% recommend Studio 90!

ur timeline. I wanted an extremely simple curl, extensions added for fullness, and had a hairpiece to pin on one side. Calina delivered exactly what I wanted and I received the same feedback from my happy bridesmaids. The team was so kind, efficient, and truly made the morning of my wedding stress-free (which is extra impressive if you know how much I stressed before the big day). Calina's mother was her assistant and on that morning, she was all of our mother! She was funny and helpful, but didn't stop at curling hair; she steamed all of the bridesmaids dresses when she had some downtime! Elizabeth is truly a master at matching your skin color for airbrush. It was such a flawless finish that looked incredible both in person and in our photos. I cannot recommend the Studio 90 team enough.
