Powder Me Pretty was amazing! They were recommended to me by our coordinator. My plan was to have my hair done and then have my sister do my makeup. I did not schedule any trials a...
s I was a bride from out of town, but I did talk with Joanna about what I wanted for my hair. It worked out great and I had complete trust in my stylists! Additionally, a few days before my wedding, my sister tested positive for covid and could not make it. I was so sad my sister could not come but also stressed about not having someone to do my makeup. I asked Joanna if I could add on a bridal makeup service as a last minute change, and she said of course! It was a huge relief!! I do not wear makeup on a regular basis so I asked for a minimal, natural look. It was absolutely GORGEOUS! I loved how my hair and makeup turned out, it was exactly how I imagined it! Everyone in the wedding party looked amazing and the day ran so smoothly. I cannot recommend Powder Me Pretty enough!!
I loved working with Jo and the rest of the Powder Me Pretty team for my wedding! As someone with monolids, I was nervous about finding a wedding makeup artist that would be skille...
d enough to work WITH my monolids versus against them. When I reached out to Jo, she was understanding of my concerns and shared a few photos of monolidded brides she's worked with in the past. During and after my hair and makeup trial, Jo was super open to feedback I had to get the makeup look just right, and she provided helpful tips to help with dryness and longevity of the makeup on the actual wedding day.
On the day of the wedding, Jo (makeup), Brandelyn (hair), and Jessica (hair & makeup) were all amazing to work with! We had an early day starting at 7:30am, but they were all punctual and ready to go. There was no hair or makeup look they weren't able to pull off for the bridal party, and everyone looked like the best versions of themselves! I also appreciated Brandelyn being adaptable when I surprised her with a headpiece I needed to wear for the Chinese tea ceremony :) If you're looking for a talented and fun hair & makeup team who can handle a diverse group of hair types and skin tones, Powder Me Pretty is for you!

I absolutely loved working with Powder Me Pretty for my wedding!! From the first communication Joanna was so quick to respond, offer advice, and make sure we had all the details al...
igned. On the wedding day it was me and 4 others (my sisters, mom, and MIL) who got hair and make up done. Our hair was done by Brandelyn and make up by Joanna - they are both such authentically kind people and incredibly talented in their areas. We all so enjoyed talking with them while getting ready and see their talent in their work. I never did a trial beforehand and have absolutely no regrets. Before each hair and make up they asked such thoughtful questions and we reviewed pictures and worked out perfectly. The same care was taken not just for myself as the bride but for the other girls as well. Everyone was beyond happy and this is coming from all of us who never get professional hair and make up done. We even had a minor incident unrelated to Joanna but my sister got a small piece of stuck in a portable fan and Joanna came over and helped minimize the impact and get her hair out LOL. I also had extensions I brought from my personal hairdresser and they were added to my hair seamlessly. Also as a bride who stayed on the dance floor the whole night (and was definitely sweating) I can confirm my hair and make up somehow still looked amazing by the end of the night. From start to finish would recommend Powder Me Pretty team any day!!!!
We worked with Powder Me Pretty to do the hair and makeup for my bridal party. We had a spectrum of comfort with makeup- some wear makeup daily and others hadn’t worn a full face i...
n years. Jess and Rachel listened and accommodated each person, making everyone feel comfortable and look great.
For my bridal makeup, I really wanted to feel like myself and specifically, to have my freckles be visible. That’s exactly what Jess did, and I felt comfortable and beautiful. What was even more impressive was that my look (and the bridal party’s) stayed on all night through extremely humid weather and lots of dancing.
We coordinated with Joanna throughout the planning process, and she was very easy to work with. I highly recommend Powder Me Pretty!
Jo & Hannah are the absolute best! Jo was very communicative throughout the entire planning process and was so helpful when it came to determining what we needed to book. She was s...
o flexible and accommodating, even when we asked to make changes. About 30 days prior to our wedding Hurricane Helene devasted the WNC area, and although the Powder Me Pretty team was undoubtedly facing both personal and professional challenges, they made sure to communicate with us as clearly and as often as possible. They were so flexible and gracious when it came to rescheduling our date. A few weeks before the wedding, Jo gave me wonderful advice (I don't really have a regular skincare routine, wear makeup regularly, or have my hair done) that I was able to follow thanks to the clarity of her communication. They create a realistic schedule for our morning of hair and makeup and stuck to it very easily. We never once felt rushed or pressured, which really made the entire process enjoyable. They have a studio, but we opted for in-home hair and makeup so they traveled to our AirBnb, which made everything so much easier for us. I am still OBSSESSED with the way my hair and makeup turned out. Jo and Hannah took all of our requests and concerns and every single one of us was thrilled with our results. I wanted something a little edgy, a little "Punk Rock Princess/Vintage Rock & Roll and they delivered - my look was better than I could have imagined! Thank you Jo & Hannah!
I had Erin from Power Me Pretty booked for my wedding day.
The bridal trial I had with Erin before the wedding was so much fun. It was great getting to test makeup and do my hair ...
before the wedding so I could know exactly what I want. She gave me different options to try that I really appreciated.
For my wedding, Erin did hair and make-up for myself, my mom, and my 4 bridesmaids. Everyone looked so incredible! My mom (who usually doesn't wear make-up) looked so natural and beautiful. I loved, loved, loved my hair and makeup. The airbrush foundation is where it's at!!
Erin was so incredible to work with. She was kind, funny and attentive. She made me and my family feel so at ease, and it was so easy to communicate with her. She showed up for me during a time that wasn't easy in our community (Hurricane Helene) and I will be forever grateful for her making me feel so beautiful on my wedding day.
They did hair and make up for our daughter's wedding in June 2024. The team was very friendly and did an amazing job with everything!
Powder Me Pretty is the BEST! Their H&MU team was amazing for my June 2024 wedding. We had a group of 13 people to get ready and they were done ahead of schedule, and everyone said...
they loved how they looked. I was the bride and I had people constantly telling me how good my makeup looked both at the wedding and in our photos. I highly recommend PMP, especially if you are a bride who is going for a very natural makeup look for your wedding day, they are the best at it.
I used the Powder Me Pretty team for rehearsal dinner and wedding hair & makeup. Jo (owner) was so easy to communicate with and was able to seamlessly schedule all my bridal needs....
Erin & Jess were the hair/makeup PROS! Not only are they amazing artists, they are genuinely nice people that make you feel so comfortable. They listened to my entire bridal parties individualized requests and delivered! They ran on a tight schedule to ensure we were all ready ahead of time, which put everyone at ease. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
I truly loved my experience with Powder Me Pretty! The owner, Joanna, was incredibly communicative, helping me find the right artist for my vision and giving me updates and details...
along the way. I got to have Kella do my hair and makeup and she was so lovely to have with me on my wedding day! She was kind and calm, helping to add to the serene morning and truly all of our hair and makeup was gorgeous. I am a picky person and Kella listened to every idea I had helping me find the right look for my wedding day that lasted all day. This was also my first time doing airbrush and it was flawless on me, my friends, and some mature skin! I almost highly recommend a trial - It really helped me get to know the look I wanted and get to know Kella ahead of time!
I absolutely loved working with Powder Me Pretty! Rachael was my stylist, and she did my hair and makeup as well as hair for two bridesmaids and my officiant.
Rachael was so awes...
ome. Laidback and funny, and so dang good at her job. I looked like the very best version of myself, and both the hair and makeup lasted all day and night in peak summer. My bridesmaids and officiant were also delighted with their hair and appreciated Rachael's willingness to work with them on less traditional looks. We all remarked that we on that day, we really looked like we had always dreamed of looking!
In addition to being an amazing stylist, Rachael was also such a pleasure to be around. I was so happy to get to spend the morning of the wedding with her, plus our trial time in the gorgeous Powder Me Pretty studio. Such a kind, calm presence. She also sourced some glitter eyeshadow for me between my trial and the wedding to bring all my rhinestone cowgirl dreams to life.
Would recommend 100%!!
I am SO HAPPY I chose Powder Me Pretty to be part of our wedding day. Leading up to our wedding Joanna was extremely friendly, professional, and easy to work with. Communication wa...
s always seamless and she was always quick to respond to all of my questions and trust me when I say I had A LOT of questions. On our wedding day, Joanna and Rachel did an amazing job getting my bridesmaids, my mom, and I looking and feeling our best. They really listened to everyone's requests and are just extremely talented. I went in a totally different direction with my makeup than we had done at my trial, which definitely made me nervous, but Joanna CRUSHED IT. I had zero changes to my hair or makeup and loved everything. Thank you to Joanna, Rachel, and Powder Me Pretty for being part of our day and for being such a joy to work with!! I would recommend them to anyone!!!
I could not be more happy with my decision to book Powder Me Pretty for hair and makeup for my wedding last fall! Joanna was incredibly responsive and professional throughout the e...
ntire process. She was super accommodating about where we would be getting ready, as I initially thought it would be at my MOH's house but later changed it to be at the PMP studio, as Joanna had offered it up!
I believe we may have been the first wedding group to get hair and makeup done at the studio and we had the BEST experience! Joanna allowed us to bring in food/drinks, was flexible about my sister-in-law bringing her 3 month-old to the studio, and even had champagne in the fridge waiting for us when we arrived! There was great music playing the whole time, and the atmosphere was very fun and relaxing which I really appreciated on the morning of my wedding!
As far as the hair and makeup goes, Joanna and her team totally nailed it! I was nervous about looking too done-up, as I typically don't wear a lot of makeup but when they were finished I felt absolutely gorgeous. They were even very flexible with me changing up a few things from my trial run. My bridesmaids, mom, and mother-in-law all looked stunning and were extremely happy with their hair and makeup as well.
All-in-all I'd give Powder Me Pretty a 12/10 if I could and recommend that you choose them for your wedding!
Powder Me Pretty did hair/makeup for my wedding, and I would HIGHLY recommend them. I cannot say enough good things about Jo and her team. Jo was outstanding to work with through t...
he entire process. She was professional, responded quickly to my many questions, and clearly takes an immense amount of pride in her work.
Beyond their stellar communication, Jo and Kella proved to be true artists. I typically go very minimal on makeup and was a little nervous about how I was going to feel in full hair and makeup, but I have never felt so beautiful! I truly felt like the most beautiful version of myself.
Jo, Kella, and Madi brought a lovely energy to the bridal suite. They were calm, happy, and efficient. Nobody felt rushed, and everyone looked incredible. They listened to our requests and came up with amazing ideas to help us look even better. Everyone was so happy with the look they wound up with. Our hair and makeup looked great from the minute they applied it until the end of the night. I cannot recommend them enough!
Cannot say enough good things about our bridal and wedding party makeup and hair with Hannah and Rachael. I don't typically like heavy makeup/hair looks on myself. Whenever I spent...
$$$ to have hair and makeup to be in other weddings it never quite looked exactly the way I'd hoped. As a bride, I debated getting both done, but my goodness it was worth the money. Hannah was wonderful about listening to my needs and allowing me to choose how heavy we went with face/eye makeup and respected my decision not to do lashes. I have never felt more beautiful than the way she did my hair and makeup on my wedding day, she truly worked some magic. My hair looked more beautiful than I ever could have imagined. Both Hannah and Rachael did wonderful with my friends and sisters who also had services done and were friendly and professional making the wedding day stress-free. Highly recommend Powder Me Pretty especially Hannah and Rachael!
Absolutely recommend! I asked for natural-looking make-up, and they definitely delivered. As an Asian person, I was concerned that the make-up would look too dramatic, but it was p...

Powder Me Pretty did hair and makeup for me, my mom and my bridesmaids on my wedding day and they are incredible! We worked with Joanna and Kella for makeup and hair (respectively)...
and they were just amazing. I can never articulate how I want things done - I'm the person who sits down in the hairdresser's chair, pulls up a photo from Pinterest and says "I want that" - and Joanna and Kella totally read my mind! I felt absolutely beautiful on my wedding day - quite literally like a princess. All my bridesmaids were thrilled with their hair and makeup too, and they were so fun to have hang out with us all day. Powder Me Pretty is truly a dream team and totally crushed bringing my wedding-day-beauty-vision to life!
The ladies at Powder Me Pretty were wonderful at my wedding! Joanna was incredibly helpful all along the way as we planned, and Cheryl did an amazing job on our makeup. All my brid...

ere so fun as we spent the day being pampered. Having our makeup professionally applied and our hair beautifully styled by these ladies was such a treat! All three ladies did their magic just as requested by each of us so that we all felt comfortable and not overdone, but specially primped for such an important day.
Joanna and Nicole were a last minute find when my first option for hair fell through. In addition to saving the day when it came to my hair, Joanna was so easy to coordinate the de...
tails with and Nicole was also responsive and helpful with the planning. Day of Nicole was the one who helped myself, mother, and sister feel so glam! She did an amazing job and was so sweet and thoughtful. Would definitely recommend them to any bride to be!!
AMAZING TEAM! Everyone with Powder Me Pretty is extremely knowledgeable and talented. It was so convenient having our hair and makeup done at the venue for myself and my bridal par...
ty. Our hair and makeup lasted all through the evening with little to no touch ups needed. I enjoyed every step of the process working with this amazing team!
Joanna and Brandelyn took care of me on my day. I was a nervous wreck at times because my spray tan became streaky and some things were running late. Joanna kept calm through it al...
l and Brandelyn was as sweet as can be. My maid of honor who had her makeup professionally done in Miami for her wedding asked Joanna, “Wow! Where were you on my wedding day?!” Joanna also took care to do my grandmother’s makeup, which came out lovely. I had warned Joanna that I tend to sweat a lot, so I hired her for extra hours for touch-ups throughout the night. Joanna was like an angel, anticipating my needs, even coming out to a wet and muddy field once (which I did not ask her to do) because she knew I was about to have an important moment and that I was a little dewey with all the post-rain humidity. I think Joanna must have touched up my makeup 4 times that night. She even brought a curler to touch up my hair- something else I didn’t have to ask for. I never felt like I had to look for her, I always knew where she was and I always felt like she was there for me, really looking out for me.
My bridesmaids and grandmother had their makeup and hair last all night. Again, I sweat a lot and the humidity didn’t help when I took photos outdoors, but Joanna was ON it!
Throughout the planning of my wedding, with all the emails and the trials, Joanna was a professional. She answered all of my emails in a timely manner, was upfront about her fees so I never had to worry about hidden charges, was punctual, and the girl knows her stuff!!! She put just the right amount of makeup on so that it didn’t feel heavy, but it was still enough to accentuate my features and be picture ready.
Brandelyn- I had people, the shy types that never come up to me to talk, who just had to compliment me on my hair! I should also mention I had clip-in extensions put in my hair. She did a half up-half down do. My natural hair was significantly shorter than the extensions, but Brandelyn made it all work together so nicely that it all looked like it was mine! I even contacted her for advice on what to buy, since this was my first time ever using them, and she was very helpful through texts.
I should also say that this was a destination wedding for us, which made planning appointments and arranging payments a little more complicated with some vendors, but these girls made it all a smooth process!
These girls do beautiful work and are so nice to work with. You won’t be sorry!
One of the best things you can do as a bride is pick the right team and Powder Me Pretty is truly the most amazing choice for all your beauty needs as they are so easy to work with...
and have a range of skills for whatever you want on your big day!
I hired Joanna and her team for my entire party which included hair and makeup for 11 women. They were extremely organized with a pre-set schedule and everything set-up and ready when we arrived. This is is a must to reduce stress on the big day!
Joanna and her team are skilled at airbrush makeup, which none of us had ever done before, so some were nervous. After seeing how amazing we looked, everyone requested airbrushing! Each girl wanted something different and all were able to deliver flawless make-up across the entire range from natural to smoky eye to dramatic. Same with hairstyles.
Joanna in particular did my makeup as the bride and I was blown away, I even changed my color palette/style from our test run and she was able to take my feedback live and deliver way beyond my expectations. She is truly talented, but more importantly she was a wonderful person to work with.
I booked Powder Me Pretty for my wedding on a recommendation. Jennah and Kella did the hair and makeup for me, my bridesmaids, my mom and my husbands' mom. I would absolutely book ...
them again! Joanna was super prompt and helpful answering all my questions, and everyone had a great experience. I would definitely recommend their team!
I worked with Joanna to set up hair and make up for my bridal party and she was wonderful. Her team arrived at our hotel at seven in the morning to get all of our hair and make up...
done by eleven, and everyone looked and felt great!! One of my bridesmaids has special needs and Joanne worked wonderfully with her. It was all around a fantastic experience.
Powder Me Pretty truly went above and beyond to make sure my special day was perfect! There was a legitimate problem that came up the day of my makeup trial that resulted in my mak...
eup artist not being able to make the trial, so they had another artist step in to do my trial at the last minute. She ended up changing her vacation plans around to be able to be the one to do my makeup for my wedding! They did a phenomenal job and used high end products. They did EXACTLY what I asked and the makeup lasted the entire night without smudging. I highly recommend!
Until maybe a month before the wedding, I thought I'd just do my own makeup. I thought I was low-key. Hah! Luckily Power Me Pretty still had a stylist, Kella, available to book for...
my date AND a trial just a few days before the wedding (since I was traveling in from out of town). Kella did hair and makeup for me and my mom, and was quite lovely and kind dealing with both of our anxieties. She helped us figure out what we really wanted (it turns out we wanted false eyelashes! Who knew!). And when we knew what we wanted—like the hairstyle I had been dreaming of—she followed our guidance and accomplished it expertly.
The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that I think in the end our foundation was a little too pale, or maybe there's something weird about the brand of airbrush makeup we used. In the photographer's photos we look fine, but in photos that use flash (e.g. the ones our guests took with the FujiFilm Instax camera we had out) we look a bit like we're wearing white face masks. That's not a huge thing, though, and Kella initially wanted us to go darker, so it's our mistake, too!
Joanna was amazing! I'm admittedly not much of a makeup person in real life, but I wanted to look a little more glamorous on my wedding day. I love all my photos. It looks like me ...
with just a little more oomph :) Airbrush makeup is perfect to achieve this natural look and along with the add-on eyelashes. Her lipsticks were amazing too. She also worked with my mom and sisters and everyone loved their looks too. She's super professional, responds quickly to emails, and on the day of the wedding she effortlessly applied everyone's makeup. As a bonus, she has great, calming energy which was just what I needed on my wedding day.
Joanna was so incredible to work with! I generally don't wear a ton of makeup, and I'm always wary of getting it done professionally because I usually end up feeling/looking clown-...
ish. But after my trial with Joanna, I knew I was in the best hands! I showed her a few pictures for reference and we discussed what I was looking for, and she nailed it! The products and techniques she uses ensure that your makeup will last all day and night. Seriously, I didn't even have to touch up my lip color once! For someone that doesn't think to check what I look like throughout the day, I was amazed that my makeup was still perfect when I got home at the end of a long night of celebrating (eating, drinking, dancing, etc). Joanna is a true artist, and I am so grateful I was able to work with her to create my perfect wedding look!
I absolutely loved my wedding makeup! Joanna did such an amazing job and my makeup did not budge the entire day. The airbrush makeup is a must and she even recommended a lipstick t...
hat would not transfer to my husband when he kissed the bride. Joanna was a pleasure to work with and arrived exactly on time! I cannot recommend Powder Me Pretty enough! Thank you again for such a wonderful experience!
Joanna was incredible and I'm so happy she did my wedding day makeup. I love the way she listens to what I wanted, to be a natural look of makeup, and her technique was phenomenal!...
! She truly made me feel like a beautiful bride. I enjoyed the makeup trial at her studio and then booked her for my wedding immediately. The lipstick she uses stays on through food and drink and kisses! I plan to buy it since it was fabulous! Thanks for making my wedding so special!!
Joanna was amazing to work with and so sweet! She was super understanding about me tardiness to our trial appointment when my hair dresses caused me to be over an hour late! She re...
ally knows her stuff and really took the time to get to know my style (I don't normally even wear makeup - so I didn't want to be overdone) and absolutely NAILED it! I truly have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day and she made that happen!
A BIG thank you to Joanna :) I'm looking over my wedding photography, and I cannot believe how flawless my complexion, flirty my eyelashes, and bright my eyes look. Joanna is a dre...
am to work with - she is so talented, so friendly, and ultra accommodating. My airbrush makeup stayed put through what my officiant called the wettest ceremony she'd ever preformed - and then some. Thank you!
Joanne went above and beyond to make sure everything was squared away for wedding day. We had multiple discussions over email with quick responses to get an idea set of what makeup...
we wanted. I couldn't have been more pleased with how it looked on wedding day. It was perfect! I would recommend her airbrush makeup to anyone for any special event.
My wedding coordinator found Joanna through a referral just a few days before our wedding. I was so grateful that she was available to do makeup for my mother and me last minute. S...
he was extremely flexible and even did eyelashes one of my bridesmaids after she finished with us. I absolutely loved my makeup, which was so elegant and natural looking. I couldn't have been happier with how flawless my airbrushed skin looked in pictures. Joanna was super sweet, calm and professional on my big day. I would absolutely refer Powder Me Pretty to any bride!
