Jaclyn was so wonderful to work with. She did my hair & makeup for our engagement photos and then again for our wedding reception. Both times I absolutely loved my hair and makeup and so did my other ladies. I would absolutely recommend and I plan on booking with her again anytime I need hair or makeup done!
I felt the artist unable to take criticism as a professional, but instead I felt like she takes it personally.
I was quoted by the artist that the trial was not supposed to be what was to be expected on wedding day. The artist also sent a follow up email what felt like to be blaming me for everything. She seemed upset I was going in a different direction. I only have a few months until my wedding and did not feel another trial was going to result in a better experience. My makeup and hair was done at 10 a.m. and by 2 p.m. I had an eyelash fall off and my makeup looked nonexistent.
Jaclyn was fantastic! She made sure she had enough hair and makeup artists to fit our group which helped everything run smoothly! I loved my hair and makeup for my wedding day, and my mom and bridesmaids did too! Jaclyn even stayed later than she had scheduled to help me put my veil in which I was so grateful for.
I am obsessed with the look Jaclyn created for me for my wedding! Right from my trial I knew I had hired the right team. I had some basic ideas and inspiration photos for the look I wanted, and Jaclyn took the time to ask questions on if I normally wore lighter or darker makeup, how my hair and skin typically behaved, etc. I’m not great with my own hair and makeup so I’m really glad Jaclyn was able to take a few of my inspiration photos and sort of “merge” them into what we thought might work best for me. It all came together beautifully and I was so pleased with the final result. She even helped me decide on a good placement for a few decorative hair pins I wanted to wear along with my veil. I’m indecisive by nature so it was really helpful for me to have a professional’s opinion on everything, while also listening to what I wanted and needed. Wedding day hair and makeup went exactly as planned. Jaclyn & her team showed up on time, with all the right equipment and kept us on schedule. Myself, my mom and all 8 of my bridesmaids felt and looked so beautiful! I’ve had my hair & makeup professionally done for several other weddings I’ve been in and while I liked most of those looks, and I can honestly say Jaclyn’s work was my favorite! It fit perfectly with my complexion, eye color, face shape and everything. I have never felt more beautiful that I did that day. AND I have to mention that my wedding was in mid August, on a 90 degree+ day with an outdoor ceremony & photos, and my hair and makeup stayed almost completely perfect until the end of the night, even though I was sweating my butt off at certain points throughout the day. Long story short, hire STL Looks. You won’t be disappointed!
Jaclyn was so sweet! My hair and makeup looked amazing and lasted all day. Her prices are also very affordable! Highly recommend.
Jaclyn and her assistant did an amazing job on hair and make up for myself, my mom, and my bridesmaids! Everyone was happy and looked great in the pictures! My hair doesn’t hold curl well but I really wanted to wear it down for my wedding day. After 2 trials, the curls weren’t holding as long as I needed them to. Jaclyn came up with a solution for wedding day! My curls stayed all day and throughout the night! Thank you Jaclyn!!
Jaclyn did my wedding hair and makeup back in September. Everything turned out great! Jaclyn was so flexible and accommodating and all my girls looked amazing!
Jaclyn and her team are absolutely AMAZING!! They helped make wedding day prep go so smoothly and stress-free. Everyone's hair and makeup was stunning! My husband told me that the first thing he noticed when I started walking down the aisle was how beautiful my hair looked. We could not be happier with the hair and makeup services! THANK YOU!!
Jaclyn did my hair and makeup for wedding day and I couldn't have been happier!! She made me look stunning with a very natural and flawless look...exactly what I was looking for. I received so many compliments. Anyone that hires her is in good hands :)
The STLooks team was amazing! I was able to hold a hair and makeup trial prior to my big day to make sure we were on the same page with my dream look. Jaclyn was a great communicator for all the logistics of my day. The bridal team showed up at our hotel and made my bridal party and myself feel so beautiful. Their hair and makeup styles are the perfect mix of classic and trendy… no spiral banana curls here! I also felt their pricing was very fair for the “product”. I would highly recommend the STLooks team for your wedding!
Jaclyn at STLooks did my hair, my mom's hair, and my sister's hair for my wedding on April 30, 2022. Jaclyn was so professional and kind. She listened to exactly what we each wanted, and everyone was so happy with their results. She did a trial of my hair a few months out which was great and allowed me to not worry when it came to the big day. She also had a wonderful waiting area in her salon where we could hang out while the other person was getting their hair done and she provided us with some snacks and mimosas which was really going above and beyond. She got all of us in and out in about 2 hours which is just what we had planned, causing no delays in our getting ready schedule. Jaclyn was so wonderful and I absolutely recommend her for your wedding hair needs!
Jaclyn and her team did an amazing job! I got so many complements on my make-up/hair as well as the bridal party’s. Jaclyn was extremely easy to work with and was a good communicator. She went the extra mile with my externally thick hair and got to the church an hour earlier that we planned to make sure my hair looked fantastic for my wedding day. I could not recommend her and her team enough!
Jaclyn and her team did an AMAZING job!! They were quick and efficient. Had 11 people and only took them 4 hours and everyone turned out GORGEOUS!! Plus their pricing is SO reasonable!! I can not recommend STLooks enough!!
Jaclyn and her team were amazing to work with! They made every single girl in my bridal party feel beautiful by listening to what they wanted and executing it so perfectly! They showed up to my venue on time and ready to go, but never made me feel rushed. I felt so beautiful, I got exactly what I wanted and I owe it to STLooks. I would 100% recommend to anyone!
Jaclyn and her team did an amazing job with our bridal party! Very easy to communicate with, especially during covid reschedules, always with kindness and professionalism. Our hair and makeup all turned out better than we could have imagined. Our group was all done with plenty of time to spare and we all enjoyed relaxing in the salon for a few extra minutes before our transportation arrived :-)
Makeup was absolutely gorgeous!!!! I couldn’t have picked anyone better to do my makeup for my wedding day. Jaclyn was very easy to reach and communication was great. She got everyone ready on time with time to spare!
Definitely would recommend! Makeup is beautiful and with a natural finish.
Jaclyn and her team were AMAZING. I had over ten girls getting ready the morning of my wedding and they were able to get everyone done in plenty of time, with no rush. I felt so confident that they would do an amazing job, and they did more than that. I had them come to the house that we were getting ready at and they were on time and prepared with all of their hair and makeup supplies. I truly could not have asked for a better team to help get me and my girls ready for the big day.
I was nervous to choose hair and makeup based on the knot reviews without any personal experience but I’m super glad I found Jaclyn and Brittany and the Stlooks team! They did hair and makeup for my six bridesmaids, my mom and me and hair for our 4year old flower girl and we were all really happy with how we looked! Brittany did a beautiful job on my bridal hair and makeup. Pricing was on par with all of the other quotes I received but Jaclyn was quick to respond with answers to all of my questions before hiring her and in the weeks leading up to the wedding. This was the aspect of planning I was most nervous about since I didn’t know anyone else who had worked with her and hair and makeup needs to last all day and night. All of our looks were still flawless at the end of the night and the whole team was amazing.
Jaclyn Retherford and her team did an amazing job for my wedding! All of my bridesmaids have commented how they loved their hair and their makeup was bright and beautiful. I would 100% recommend STLooks to all St. Louis future brides.
Jaclyn Retherford and her team did a FABULOUS job for my daughter's wedding in Sep 2020. They took care of the hair and make up for our 5 bridesmaids, our junior bridesmaid (hair), our flower girl (hair), mothers of bride & groom, grandmothers of bride and groom and a family friend. Jaclyn was so kind to allow us to add additional services last minute and patiently answered our numerous questions. She and her entire team arrived on-time and didn't leave until everyone was finished and completely satisfied. The atmosphere in the suite was light hearted and fun...lots of talking and laughter between the STLooks team, wedding party and our female family members. Everyone was completely happy with the job Jaclyn and her team did and felt their pricing was reasonable. We HIGHLY recommend STLooks!
I wish I could give Jaclyn more than 5 stars, because I couldn’t have been happier with my hair and makeup! I last minute wanted a different hair style than we did on our trial, and she executed it to perfection!
STLooks did a fantastic job on our hair and makeup for my wedding! They came to our Airbnb and arrived early to set up. They worked efficiently and did a great job on everyone’s hair and makeup! Highly recommend STLooks!
Jaclyn traveled to Grafton, IL to do my hair and makeup for my wedding day, and she did an amazing job! My hair and makeup stayed in pristine condition for 12 hours in the June heat! I couldn't have asked for anything better. Jaclyn is amazing, and I completely recommend her to anyone looking for a hair and makeup duo package. :)
STLooks did our hair and makeup for my wedding. The team was fast and efficient. The wedding party looked beautiful and hair and makeup made it through the long day and still looked good after dancing all night. Very happy with STLooks!!
I had two wonderful hair stylists do hair for 9 ladies for my wedding on 9/21! Both ladies were efficient and created beautiful styles in under 3 hours which was absolutely impressive! We received many compliments from guests on the hair styles and they lasted all night long! I will absolutely recommend the ladies at STLooks to anyone looking for wonderful hair stylists!
Jaclyn and her team are seriously incredible!! I came to her with a specific Princess Leia look in mind and she was able to recreate it so well! I let my bridesmaids choose how they wanted their hair and they all looked amazing. Jaclyn also did my makeup and totally nailed it. And to top it all off, she served us donuts and mimosas while we were getting our looks together at her salon. I couldn't have asked for a better stylist!
Jaclyn did an amazing job on my hair and makeup and my bridal parties' hair and makeup. She really listens to what you want and makes sure you are comfortable and satisfied with the end result. The products she uses are also high quality and stay on! I showed her a few photos of what I was looking for and she executed it flawlessly! Super convenient that she came to our hotel room where we were getting ready to do our hair and makeup. That made the day so smooth!
Jaclyn is amazing at makeup! Her team did a great job at hair. They worked quickly and were able to get all 9 people done in 2-3 hours and we all looked great! They are very easy to work with and reasonably priced! I was very impressed with them!
aclyn and her team were great! They came to my hotel room in downtown St. Louis and did hair and makeup for me and my 8 bridesmaids and hair for my mom and my mother-on-law! Everyone was done and double checked in 4 hours. They made sure that everyone was happy with their hair and makeup and checked everyone and re-sprayed as needed before they left.
Booking hair and makeup was one of the tougher vendors for me to find, but I highly recommend STLooks. My hair and makeup were still in tact when I left the reception after 11 PM that night!
They let me FaceTime friends who couldn’t come while getting my hair done, dealt with us spilling champagne and struggling to get the music to work at 7 AM. I got to keep the lip gloss they used on me so I could touch up throughout the day.
The hair and makeup trial was perfect. I was dealing with acne and scarring at the time, and Jaclyn made sure to help cover everything up and that I felt comfortable with how my face looked.
On top of everything- the team was just really nice throughout the entire process to work with and hang out with the day of!
Jaclyn is incredible!! She was so great /super helpful during my trials and she was on her A game on the big day! She and Tara traveled to the venue and knocked out 9 girls in no time!! They were wonderful to work with! I highly recommend this group!
Jaclyn and her team did an amazing job on my wedding this weekend. We had 9
Girls total and everything turned out perfect. They were awesome with take requests and doing anything we asked. Very friendly and fun to hang with for a few hours!! Thank you so much!!!!
We used STLooks for my wedding and overall we were very happy with their services. They were very easy to get along with did not complain when my videographer/photographer needed to turn on and off the lights for their photos as we were getting ready. The only complaint is that I felt my hair looked better during my trial than the day of the wedding, but overall I was very happy with how it looked and my makeup was perfect. They are a little more expensive than other vendors I researched, but in my opinion worth it.
Jaclyn and her team are amazing! They did all of our hair and makeup on site and were so friendly and wonderful.
I don't wear makeup very often so I was a little nervous about the makeup for my wedding. Jaclyn did makeup for my mom and I and it was fantastic! The makeup lasted all night and looked beautiful. I highly recommend going to STLooks for any special occasion makeup!
I booked STLooks for my 10 bridesmaids and MOG. Jaclyn was very easy to text and email with to answer all of my questions along the way! The whole team was professional and did a fabulous job on all of my girls. The girls got to choose if they wanted airbrush or mineral foundation, whatever they were most comfortable doing.
All of my bridesmaids looked great and felt great, which is sometimes hard with all of the extra makeup and hairspray on wedding day.
Most importantly, our hair and make-up was even done EARLY! We had time to hand out, relax and chat.
Jaclyn was out on maternity leave, but her entire team did an AMAZING job for my wedding and she stayed in contact with me all summer before the big day. Everyone in the wedding party loved their hair and makeup. The makeup lasted all day. Special shout out to Sarah Grayem for killing my bridal hairstyle :).
We got married on 5/12/18 and Jaclyn and her team did our hair. I could not recommend them more! I was very indecisive about what I wanted leading up to the wedding and Jaclyn remained extremely supportive and patient and in the end gave me EXACTLY what I wanted. :) All of my bridesmaids looks amazing and were so happy with their looks. If I could go back and do it again I would choose them without a doubt! Thank you so much for everything!!!!!

My hair and makeup looked absolutely stunning! I loved all the makeup and hair of the bridesmaids as well. All the girls were fun and talked and laughed with us the morning we got ready. They did a good job working with lots of different hair types and everything turned out perfect.
Jaclyn was fantastic! She traveled to our hotel and was able to do hair and makeup for three bridesmaids, myself, and two moms on the morning of in about 4 hours with a helper. She was also kind enough to squeeze in our anxious flower girl. All of the makeup looked natural. I had a side braid that was a little tough but with the help of extensions and a trial, Jaclyn was on her game on our wedding day!
Makeup looked beautiful and lasted all day. My hair just doesn't hold curls very long but the hairstyle itself was amazing. I felt so confident and beautiful the day of. They let us get ready entirely in the salon because of our short timeline for the day. I took one star away because they did not tell us before hand that we had to pay with a check or cash only the day of. Very few girls in the group had their checkbook or had that much cash on them. Some girls had to run to the bank. If that didn't happen; they'd have 5 stars.
I had my wedding in July and Jaclyn and her team did a great job. My bridesmaids, mothers, flower girls and I all loved our hair. Our makeup was top notch and they made us all feel beautiful for the big day!!!
Getting ready for daughter's upcoming wedding with a fabulous facial, then color and wax of the brows. One of the most relaxing hours I have spent leading up to the big day!
Jackie went above and beyond to make sure myself, my wedding party and both my mother and mother in law looked absolutely flawless. I was so impressed with her professionalism, kindness and patience. She not only did a fantastic job with my trial, but was quick to adjust when I wanted to make a few changes day of.
I love Kate & Jaclyn and they did an amazing job for my wedding!
Jaclyn and he bridal team were AMAZING to work with for my big day. Everyone's make up was absolutely flawless and stunning AND lasted the ENTIRE day! The up-do's for the girls were exactly what each one wanted and done in a very timely fashion. The team was fantastic at at multitasking and stayed right on track therefore no one was rushed. I still to this day get compliments on myself and my bridal party's make-up and hair when others see how picture perfect it was! I can't recommend Jaclyn and her team enough... They are the sweetest and most genuine gals and they do amazing work as well! It was such a joy and pleasure to have them on my big day!
Love, Love, Love. Everything about the experience was wonderful. I had a trial run prior to the big day to test out how everything would look. Jaclyn is very professional, accommodating, and makes sure you are 100% satisfied.
On the big day, Jaclyn was able to come to my hotel room to start the process and then continued in our suite at the venue. She was there prompt and was so helpful and calming! She had made my entire process of getting ready such a delight! My hair and make-up stayed together the entire evening. I would highly recommend STLooks. They go above and beyond and will make your big day picture perfect :)
Jaclyn and her team did AMAZING hair and makeup on my wedding day. I and all of my bridesmaids received so many compliments on our hair and makeup. Best of all, my hair completely stayed the whole day, and it still looked great at the end of the night. Jaclyn and her team were so easy to work with, and really listened to each of the girl's ideas for hair and makeup. The quality of hair and makeup is top notch, and their pricing is incredibly reasonable. Thank you for making my wedding such a wonderful day!! I highly recommend!!
I’m so happy we went with STLooks. They travelled to Silver Oaks to do my hair and makeup plus my bridal party and both moms. They were up-front with the costs, and they brought enough stylists to keep us on schedule. All of us ladies looked our absolute best, and our styles lasted all day. We each received multiple compliments, and I felt how every bride wants to feel on her wedding day.
I've known Jaclyn for awhile now and knew as soon as I got engaged I had to book her! This was the best decision I made for our wedding. She brought Brittany to help and ensure we were on time for pictures! They were able to do my makeup, my bridesmaids, and the mother of the bride and groom in 4 hours! Everyone looked beautiful!!
Going with the STLooks team was truly the best decision I made for our wedding. Jaclyn is easy to communicate with, flexible, sweet, and a natural stylist. The hair and make up looked professionally done yet natural. Our pictures are phenomenal because of they way STLooks made everyone up. I recommend STLooks to every bride looking for a wedding day hair and make up team. You'll be glad you chose Jaclyn's team.
Jaclyn and her team did hair and makeup for myself, 6 bridesmaids, the mother of the bride and groom last weekend and we all could not be happier with the results!!! Jaclyn does an amazing job with make up, making us all look very natural. Kate did such a great job of recreating the pictures I showed her for my hair. The girls are very professional and so nice. Not to mention, very reasonable. I would HIGHLY recommend them!!!!
5 stars is not enough! Jaclyn traveled to Springfield and made us all look and feel beautiful on such a special day! We can't thank her enough! You will not be disappointed if you use STLooks!
Could not have dreamed of a more talented and professional team. They exceeded any expectations I had and made me feel comfortable along the way. Jaclyn did my make-up perfectly and Kate went above and beyond on my hair. It was a memorable experience that added to how great my wedding day was. Thank you!
Jaclyn and her team did a wonderful job! We all looked and felt beautiful. She really worked with me to make sure the day went seemlessly!
They did an awesome job!! I've already recommended them to a lot of brides!
Absolutely wonderful! Very flexible and knowledgeable. Would recommend to anyone.
Jaclyn, Kate and Sarah did makeup and hair for me and my bridal party of 7 (plus my mom and grandma). They did an absolutely amazing job!! The makeup was flawless and they gave every girl the hair they wanted. Jaclyn knows exactly how to manage the time so that there is no rushing and everyone finishes on time. I would definitely recommend STLooks for any bride!
I just had my makeup and hair done here for my engagement pictures and it looks AMAZING! Jaclyn made sure to ask a lot of questions about what I wanted and the end result was beautiful. I have STLooks booked for my wedding in October and I cannot wait!!! I highly recommend to any bride and her bridal party. :)
Jaclyn and her team came to the Magnolia hotel to do my makeup and all of my bridesmaids (7). They were AMAZING! Every single person including myself felt gorgeous!! I have always feared getting my makeup done professionally, thinking that I would not look like myself, but I looked like a flawless version of me! The hair and makeup was exactly what I wanted and she nailed it the first time through. The day of I tweaked a few things from the trial and Jaclyn listened and did exactly what I was asking! It was stunning! All of my bridesmaids looked amazing as well thanks to her wonderful staff that traveled with her! Thank you all for making us feel confident, beautiful, and elegant....and most of all ourselves!
Jaclyn did an AMAZING job on hair and makeup for my wedding. I requested a difficult vintage up-do and makeup, and she NAILED it!
Not only was her work flawless, but she was excellent in communicating with me through the entire planning process. She traveled to my downtown hotel room to do my hair and makeup, as well as my 7 other bridesmaids.
I can not say enough good things about her work, her team or her professionalism. I would highly recommend STLooks to any bride!
Everything was great! Jaclyn's airbrush makeup is amazing and her updos are great as well. She brought two girls with her so that we got everyone done with time to spare. They came to location which was awesome we didn't have to go anywhere. The only drawback was paying full price for my hair and makeup trial but I would still highly recommend!!
I already had been going to STL Looks for my hair for years, so it was no surprise I chose to have myself and my bridesmaids get hair and makeup done here for my wedding!!
Jaclyn did an amazing job on my makeup!! I got airbrush makeup done at 8:30 in the morning and our wedding was not until 4pm. I didn't have to touch up my makeup (besides lipstick) at all throughout the day and it looked so natural and amazing!! I was super happy!
Brittany did my hair. She is awesome because I didn't have a hair trial, only an idea of the kind of look I wanted to go for. I wanted something "in between" two pictures I showed her. Specific right? Well she is a true artist because she did a perfect job on my hair! It was everything and more that I had envisioned. It held all day long, another thing I was nervous about. I got endless compliments on my hair and makeup.
I felt like my wedding day was a fairytale, and Jaclyn and Brittany were key pieces in making me feel so beautiful!! THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Jaclyn and her team did a awesome job for my wedding! We had our make up and hair done by STLooks and they even came to our hotel. Everyone looked great and was very happy with their hair and make up! I felt like such a princess on my wedding day and much thanks was to Jaclyn! She listened to what I wanted done and did it exactly how I pictured it and when I wanted changes done after our first hair and make up run, she made the changes without hesitation and made my hair and make up look perfect! I loved getting my make up air brushed on and having fake lashes! I would defiantly recommend checking them out!!
I used this salon mostly because it's where I go to get my hair cut and colored anyway. I couldn't imagine any other stylist but my own, Kate, being in charge of my 'do on the big day. The whole team at STLooks is fabulous, and everyone who used their services on the big day looked great. They were so accommodating and even traveled to the house we were getting ready at so we didn't have to leave. I wouldn't have trusted my look to anyone other than these lovely ladies!
Planning a wedding from another state is extremely stressful. I knew I wouldn't be able to do a trial for my hair and makeup so I had to be sure that I was working with someone good. After some research, I booked STLooks (over a year out) and I am so glad I did. Jaclyn was very easy to work with and she quickly answered all of my emails. I did opt for on location services and it was worth it to me because no one in my bridal party is used to navigating St. Louis. The additional cost was not bad at all compared to a lot of other salons. We had no issues with running behind and everyone looked gorgeous. I was very happy with everything and have no complaints at all about my experience with them. I definitely recommend them to anyone wanting quality hair and makeup for their big day.
The whole crew at STLooks is amazing! Jaclyn did my hair and makeup for my Friday evening wedding, and the rest of her team worked on my bridesmaids, mother, and mother-in-law. What was so awesome is that everyone looked gorgeous! The team has a really great eye for emphasizing any woman's natural beauty and knowing colors and hairstyles that will look best on them. Jaclyn is very careful in the trial to make absolutely sure you're thrilled with the look, and also works closely with you to determine your vision for yourself and your attendants. I wasn't picky about whatever the rest of the girls wanted to do, but if you are picky about the look for your big day, STLooks will take careful notes of it! Absolutely gorgeous work!
Jaclyn was amazing! My hair and make up were perfect and exactly what I wanted! Our hair and make up was even finished early, giving us more time to relax before pictures!
Truly wonderful to work with! Jaclyn and her team were fantastic. I had a group of 9 girls get ready in the salon, and they surprised us with mimosas, scones and cinnamon rolls! My hair and makeup were flawless and all of my sisters and bridesmaids etc. had wonderful hair. I cannot say enough kind things about these wonderful ladies!
We contacted this salon early to book them, and they were very courteous and direct about how much various services cost, and offered a few different packages for the bridesmaids to choose from (that varied in price, as well). They brought the service to the hotel where our wedding was, so I got ready with my bridesmaids in the bridal suite, which was awesome! All of us looked wonderful thanks to these ladies! They were very intuitive in giving us the styles that we liked and that would look good on us! I would highly recommend their services for just about any formal event!
Jacqueline and her team are nothing short of amazing! They made us all look like movie stars and did it in record time! They are such sweet, fun ladies and their skills are top notch. They are patient and very professional and gave my daughters (the brides) exactly what they asked for. As we were leaving our hotel, after being made up by the stlooks team, a lady and her daughter stopped us so they could get a good look at my daughters' updos for her daughter's wedding. We felt like celebrities thanks to Jacqueline and her team at Stlooks Salon!!
I can't speak for everyone but Kristen Parks was amazing. She not only did a wonderful job on my hair and makeup --seriously, I never imagined my makeup could look so good, she was very helpful in explaining things and making sure everything was what I liked. The rest of the staff were all really complimentary as well, which is always nice.
The truly amazing support, however, was on the day of my wedding when my two best friends from out of town dropped into the salon to surprise me. When they were leaving for lunch a little later my friend was in a massive wreck pulling out of their parking lot. STLooks let them come in, sit down, call people, gave them drinks, etc. I was crazy upset as I actually thought I may be going to the hospital instead of getting married that day and Kristen was soooo patient and concerned. She wouldn't even get back to makeup until everyone was calmed down again and then she was super fast so that everything still worked out time-wise. She even e-mailed me the next day to make sure everyone was okay. I cannot recommend her enough!
My only very minor complaint is that STLooks does make you do a trial. For some brides who really care and may get upset I'm sure that's good insurance for their being happy on the day, but some of us just don't care enough. I just wanted to be photograph-friendly. I'm really not that picky about makeup, plus I only just arrived in the country for the wedding a week in advance, it was really difficult to make that work. Not a big deal though and probably not a problem for most people.
Awesome salon, I could not recommend it more!
I can't say enough good things about STLooks! Jaclyn and her staff were unbelievably accommodating and professional from day one. We went to the salon the morning of my wedding and the girls were ready and waiting! They provided light breakfast foods and mimosas, which was an added bonus. They did a great job accommodating my last minute decision to style my hair differently than we had at the trial. I could not have been happier with how my hair and makeup turned out! Each of my bridesmaids looked beautiful, as well! Thank you, STLooks!
I want to acknowledge Jaclyn and her team at STLooks for a job well done. Jaclyn was my point of contact for my January 2015 wedding and if you are seeking a hair and make-up team for your wedding day, I wouldn't look any further than STLooks. When I got engaged, I didn't really know where to start when it came to securing a hair and make-up team. I know a couple girls in STL that do hair, however I knew I wanted to go with someone reputable that I didn't necessarily know because I know if I was friends with the person I chose, I'd have a harder time speaking up about the look if I wasn't crazy about it. After doing some research on The Knot and Yelp, I found STLooks. The reviews I read were right... Jaclyn was very responsive and what impressed me as well were her rates. I have been in a couple weddings for friends and I found Jaclyn's rates to be very fair - not too high, not too low. I was amazed when I checked with other vendors in my search at how much they charged for these types of services! While I planned on looking my best on my wedding day, I also wasn't planning on breaking the bank to do so. STLooks was the perfect solution and I never felt any pressure to go beyond what I needed. They came to us on the day of and were very patient with each of the girls. Also since I am incredibly fickle, I met with Jaclyn twice prior to the wedding to do two separate trials. She was always very professional, patient and happy to accommodate!
Jaclyn and her team did a perfect job of getting my bridesmaids ready for our wedding day. They arrived to our hotel on time, set up, and efficiently but beautifully did hair and make up for 7 girls. They were professional and come highly recomended.
I used STLooks for my wedding and they were amazing! Jaclyn was super professional and did an amazing job on my hair and makeup as well as all of my bridesmaids. She made me feel so beautiful which made the day so much more relaxing knowing I looked my best. Also, whenever I emailed her about questions I had she was always very quick to respond. Overall an amazing experience and I would highly recommend this team for hair and makeup!
I was married in September of 2010 and since then I have passed STLooks on to many of my friends. I have been in several weddings and the service I received from their stylists didn't even compare to STLooks. STLooks team was on time, well prepared, and flexible. My hair and make-up stayed the entire day and looked so good. They are young and up on all the new trends and applications. I would highly recommend them!!
My wedding was on Saturday August 23rd, and it was a high of 106 degrees. Jaclyn gave me an updo and airbrush makeup/eyelashes that weathered the worst of the heat. She also did the hair and makeup of my maid of honor and my mother. My mom never does much by way of makeup and has very short hair and she looked like a whole new person when Jaclyn was finished with her, but still looked natural and elegant. All of the makeup looks were beautiful and classic, but individualized to what we wanted, without being too heavy or dramatic. As a bride, I could not have felt more beautiful. All three of us got compliments on our hair and makeup the whole day. Going into my trial with Jaclyn, I relied on The Knot reviews because I am currently living in Boston, and I was not familiar with makeup artists in the St. Louis area. She quickly got back to me with quotes and possible trial dates for her services--she made it so easy to work with her--even from a distance. Jaclyn is very sweet and down to earth, and quite honestly, she will exceed all of your expectations-- no matter what kind of style you're looking for!
Jaclyn helped me create the perfect wedding day look with hair and make up. She came out in the early morning for hair & make- up, and we coordinated for her to return in the evening before my reception for a make up retouch and hair restyle. I can't tell u how amazing I felt for the ceremony- which I didn't think could get better, but felt even more amazing for the reception. She did an amazing job and she made this day and moment so special!
I used STLooks for my hair, makeup, and spray tan for my wedding last November. I have to say that Jaclyn and her amazing team are the best at what they do!!! I had Jaclyn do my makeup for my engagement pictures as well and all of my pictures looked flawless! She also put lashes on me for my bachelorette party and again for my wedding day and made me feel like a princess! I can't say enough about them and how great they are at what they do :)
Jaclyn Retherford came to our hotel to do onsite make-up for my wedding. She did an amazing job! I was surprised at how reasonable her prices were! I had appointments with several other make-up places in the St Louis area, but Jaclyn was the easiest to talk with and had good quality make-up. I wanted air-brush make-up versus traditional. Its amazing how a trial with another vendor made it feel like the makeup was caked on my face, while Jaclyn made my face look flawless, while keeping it light. I felt like I was not wearing any makeup. I huge bonus what that eyelashes came with the make-up application! 5 of my bridesmaids also got their makeup done, and everyone was pleased. I would recommend her to everyone I know!
Jaclyn & her team traveled 2 hours to Carbondale to do our hair & makeup. Everything was flawless. They did a amazing job. Hair and makeup lasted all day.
Jaclyn and her team at STLooks were fantastic. They came to the hotel and did all the hair and makeup for the bride, 5 bridesmaids, and mother of the bride! They are professional, organized and efficient! They were on time and were very accommodating to all the different styles of the girls! The hair and make up lasted all day and night with no touching up! We would highly recommend them for any size wedding party...and the fact that they come to you makes it so much easier on the special day! Thanks STLooks!
I used STLooks for my wedding and they were great! Jaclyn and Sarah came to our hotel to help us with hair and make up. Everyone was so happy with their looks by the time they were done. The girls were really efficient and took exactly as long as they said they would. This was great because it kept us on schedule! I recommend the airbrush makeup. It was flawless and lasted all day.
Jaclyn traveled to Springfield to do my makeup for my wedding day and did an amazing job! She was able to do my makeup plus all 9 of my bridesmaids and two moms in just 4 short hours! Everyone loved their makeup and I got tons of compliments on it. Her prices are very very reasonable as well!
She also came to my house the day of my rehearsal to do a trial since we both live in different cities and weren't able to meet up before then. So convenient!!
I had a makeup and hair team from STLooks come to our hotel room to do all the women in the wedding and everyone looked gorgeous! I live out of town and booked them solely on the fact that they specialize in bridal parties, have reasonable prices, and that I liked my trial. Everyone we worked with throughout the process was extremely nice and helpful. On the day of the wedding, they did a great job listening to us and doing what we envisioned. I definitely recommend STLooks!
I used STLooms for my wedding in August, and Jaclyn and her team were amazing! They did hair and makeup for myself, five bridesmaids, two junior bridesmaids and my mom in record time. Everyone looked amazing and our hair and makeup were perfect throughout our long day. Even before the reception when I went to touch up my makeup I realized I didn't need to- the airbrush looked flawless even after an afternoon of pictures outside.
I would HIGHLY recommend STLooks to any bride or wedding party. Jaclyn worked with me months before the ceremony to make sure I loved my updo, and that morning her girls were so fun to work with and helped us all stay calm and have fun. Thanks STLooks for making my big day so beautiful!
I had a wonderful experience using STLooks for my wedding! I went in for my trial h
