Mandy and her assistant Misty are true artists! If you haven’t visited Mandy’s website yet, I highly recommend you check out her work. She has loads of experience and can do just a...bout anything! Mandy was easy to communicate with and direct. Pricing was straightforward. I had to trust my gut when hiring Mandy as I was an out-of-state bride! After hours and hours of research on different hair/makeup artists, I zeroed in on Mandy. Thankfully, she was still available for my Sunday wedding. (Tip: If you want Mandy, book her ASAP because her schedule fills up quickly!) I met her just a few days before the big day for a hair trial. She was so friendly and easy to get along with. She was invested in making me happy and hearing what I had to say. We scrolled through Pinterest together and created a vision before she started playing around with my hair. She got it right on the first try and it was even better than expected! For money saving purposes, I skipped a makeup trial. The day of, I was a little nervous because I didn’t want to look overdone (or come out in photos with a caked face), but Mandy again did an amazing job! I looked so natural and felt perfectly myself. My airbrush makeup and false lashes lasted all day. Mandy and Misty tag-teamed by bridal party (9 people) effortlessly. We had all sorts of hair textures: long, short, thick, curly, and fine - no sweat! Also, I was super impressed that Mandy & Misty stuck to the schedule to a T. From start to end time, everything went off without a hitch! They made sure that we all were touched up before they left; they even provided little lip samples and travel sized hairspray. In sum, I highly recommend Mandy (and Misty) - professional artists and sweet human beings!
