Owner

I started my journey with a passion for the wedding world. With several years of makeup and hairstyling experience, I love enhancing your natural beauty whether your style is more simplistic, or full glam. I'm a fully licensed and insured cosmetologist available for hair color and cuts in salon as well. As a past recent bride myself I can totally relate to the wedding planning process. It is always an honor to be a part of a very special day no matter the occasion. Detailed oriented and a bit of a perfectionist my top goal is always a happy smile!

Melissa was so great to work with! It poured on my wedding and everyone's hair and makeup held up perfectly. As someone with lots of skin issues I was worried how my make up would turn out for my wedding, but Melissa worked with my concerns and helped me feel beautiful on my wedding day.

I had a wonderful experience working with Melissa. She was very kind and attentive to her work. She did a wonderful job with my bridal party's hair. She was very professional and made sure I left my bridal trial with the exact information and idea needed for my actual wedding day. She even helped me pick out the perfect extensions to make my vision for my hairstyle happen. On the wedding day, everyone's hair came out great and she worked in a very timely manner. Would recommend!

Melissa at Melissa's Makeovers is an absolute gem! I can't say enough about her professionalism and genuine kindness. She didn't just meet our expectations; she exceeded them. In fact, I can confidently say she was my favorite vendor to work with for my wedding. Melissa is the epitome of being on top of her game. From the moment we hired her, she was organized, punctual, and incredibly flexible. She worked with us to create a schedule so that we could all be ready on time. When some of the bridesmaids had to leave early, she surprised us by going the extra mile and cleaning up our space at the Airbnb. I was truly blown away by her dedication. What sets Melissa apart is her dedication to making every one of us feel confident and beautiful. She took the time to consult with each bridesmaid and didn't stop working until we were all completely satisfied with our looks. Melissa has a remarkable talent for enhancing our natural beauty, and her attention to detail is outstanding. Whether you want a naturally beautiful or glam look, she's got you covered. As the bride, I asked for a look right in the middle, and Melissa delivered exactly that. I couldn't be happier with her work. Melissa at Melissa's Makeovers is an incredible makeup artist, and I highly recommend her for any special occasion. Thank you, Melissa, for making our day even more beautiful!
