I had a very good experience with The Finishing Touch. Lauren and Christine were very nice and willing to work with me and my girls until everything was perfect. One of my bridesmaid doesn't usually wear makeup and Lauren was able to do minimal makeup to make her feel comfortable. She was even able to add on one more makeup service for one of my bridesmaids at the last minute. Christine was amazing with all of our hairstyles. Everyone looked wonderful all day. The only slightly negative thing was that they only accepted cash from everyone, which was less convenient. But all in all, it was a great experience.
Lauren and Krissy are absolutely the best of the best. They’re so kind, helpful, and masters at what they do!
They made me look and feel gorgeous for my wedding day. My bridesmaids look absolutely stunning as well.
I am forever grateful ! 🤍

Thank you so much Sam! We had such a great time with you and your bridal party!
Finishing Touch was the best! Christine and Lauren were so wonderful and did an AMAZING job on my (the bride) hair/makeup as well as all of my wedding party. They were super accommodating and so kind. I highly recommend! Book them!
Any questions?
Lauren is a true professional with amazing talent. She managed to make us look fabulous while my two daughters pestered with ALL the makeup questions while drooling over the brands. Highly recommended!

Thank you so much Jess! You guys were so much fun and I adored your daughters and all of their questions :-).
Lauren was amazing! She is very professional, kind and talented. She did makeup for 5 of us for my son's wedding and we were all so happy with her work! She listened to us when we told her what type of look we wanted and the results were even better than we pictured. Also, it lasted all day at an outdoor wedding and reception on a very hot day. I definitely recommend her!

Thank you so much Trish! We're so glad you enjoyed your makeup and that it lasted all day!

Thank you so much for the awesome review! It was great being a part of your big day!
If you want wonderful makeup and an incredible hairstyle for your wedding day look no further than the finishing touch by C&G. Lauren and Chrissy couldn’t have been lovelier or done a better job on my wedding day, September 30th 2023. I knew the second I did my hair and makeup trial that they would be the perfect fit for my wedding day and they absolutely were. They took care of my hair and makeup, my bridesmaids and family members. Everyone felt so beautiful all thanks to you two. I couldn’t be more grateful for the work you did or have asked for anything more. Thank you so much ladies!! I 100% recommend!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! It was such a pleasure being a part of your big day and we hope to work with you in the future!
I booked The Finishing Touch for my October 14th, 2023, wedding! Christine was the women who I was in contact with the most and she was wonderful! She answered all of my questions in a timely manner and was very helpful with all of my requests. The trial run went perfect, and she took the time to make sure I was happy with my hair do and make up look. She took pictures afterwards to make sure she repeated the process on the wedding day! Christine came with a college named Sam the day of my wedding and both women were so great to work with. They were fun, friendly, accommodating, and very timely! They even finished hair and make-up, the morning of, a half hour earlier than our original schedule! I would definitely recommend then for any bride on their wedding day, and I would absolutely use their services again for my future events! Thank you, SOO, much ladies!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review Julia! It was so great being a part of your big day!! Everyone looked so beautiful!
Amazing and highly recommend! Lauren and Sam are the best team around. Both made the planning process so easy from trials to the day of schedule. Both stylists listened and brought the vision of everyone in my bridal party to life. The stylists were so kind, professional, helpful, and fun. They made getting ready one of the best parts of the big day.

Thank you so much Brianna! We loved being a part of your special day!
I set up hair and makeup for myself and my daughter-in-law on the morning of my son's wedding. Christine and Lauren had no problem giving us each the look we wanted. We all felt beautiful and radiant. I am 60 and did not feel it!

Thank you so much for having us Kelly! You were a pleasure to work with!
We had Christine do hair for my small wedding! There were 4 of us. She showed up on time, had all supplies needed, gave amazing recommendations, and had everyone feeling so beautiful and confident with their hair! Everyone’s stayed put all night too! Would highly recommend. Thank you, Christine!

Thank you so much Shannon! It was so great to be a part of your big day!
The Finishing Touch was an incredible team of professional woman who showed up to my home with enthusiasm and skill with one thing on their minds and that was to assure the entire bridal party looked flawless ! They listened to everyone’s needs yet elegantly assured everyone’s look was different but flowed . A wedding day is usually stressful but with this team of girls our day was calm, fun and exciting ! The mother of the bride and mother of the groom were made to look natural yet flawless! The bridal party was stunning with a look that lasted all night and the Brides look was magical💗✨💗Christine and her team are highly recommended by all of us ! The day turned out beautiful all because we started off with The Finishing Touch 💕

Thank you so much Terri! We had such a good time doing hair and makeup on you and these wonderful girls! Thank you for choosing us!
The most amazing group of women! They are so talented with make up and hair. They make you feel beautiful but keep you natural. But not only are they amazing with hair and make up but they are so sweet and make the brides day everything it should be. Also can never beat amazing prices and they sure do have that!

Thank you so much Shelby! We had so much fun with you girls! Everyone looked amazing :-)
The Finishing touch had a team of wonderful ladies come on-site to do mine(bride) and 10 others on my wedding day. They created a schedule before hand and ensured everything ran super smooth the entire morning! Everyone looked amazing and was very happy with there hair and makeup, couldn't recommend them enough!

Thank you so much Stephanie! We were so excited to be a part of your big day!
We worked with Christine and she was wonderful. She has a beautiful studio for a trial and thoughtfully made a few adjustments for my wedding day. She made all the bridesmaids look naturally beautiful at their request. I was beyond happy with the work she did on all of us.
Response from the Vendor on 10/24/2022
Thank you so much Bryn! It was a pleasure to work with your and your wedding party! Thank you for letting us be part of your big day.
Lauren and her team were incredible on my Wedding Day. Lauren and another team member came out, and they were both so talented and made me and my Bridesmaids feel so beautiful. I was delighted from the trial I had with Lauren. We talked about using different pigments on the eyes for the Wedding Day, and Lauren got a bunch of different ones to try out, and we found the most beautiful one to use on the day. She went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect! My makeup held up the entire day, I didn’t even need any touch ups. Lauren, I am so appreciative of all you did for me, my Mom and my Bridesmaids on my Wedding Day. Thank you for making us all feel so gorgeous! I can’t recommend you girls enough!
Response from the Vendor on 04/26/2022
Thank you so much for such a wonderful review! We are so glad we could be a part of your big day and find the perfect makeup look for you! Everyone looked gorgeous and we love the pictures!
I can't thank Lauren and Tracey enough for making our day so memorable. I would highly recommend hiring them for your wedding day. From day one they were so helpful with everything. Lauren was quick with responding to questions and both Lauren and Tracey really make sure they get to know your during your hair and makeup trial so they can make sure your big day is perfect. Both of them were so easy to talk to and got along with everyone in our bridal party and the moms. They are so good at understanding what you picturing for your big day. Thank you Lauren and Tracey so much! ❤

Thank you so much Tara! We are so glad we were able to be there for your big day! Everyone looked amazing! We hope you are enjoying married life!
Since picking The Finishing Touch for my makeup I knew I made the right choice! From the trial with Christine to the wedding day make up with Christine and Lindsey, everything was better than what I could have expected. Both ladies took care of my bridal party and made us look stunning! Everyone at the wedding could not stop commenting on our makeup. I would give Christine and Lindsey more stars if I could!!!!
Response from the Vendor on 01/24/2022
Thanks so much for your review Carolyn. We were thrilled to be part of your big day!
I used The Finishing Touch for my wedding hair and make up. I could not believe how stunning I looked on my wedding day. They listed to exactly what my vision was made sure it was a reality. Christine and her team was extremely professional, friendly and accommodating. The team made sure 9 people were ready on time. I cannot recommend The Finishing Touch enough!
Response from the Vendor on 12/13/2021
Thank you so much Jessica! We had such a great time getting everyone ready for your big day! We're so happy that you loved how everything turned out!
Words cannot express what an amazing job the girls did with hair and makeup for my daughter's wedding on 10/23/21!! My daughter looked absolutely stunning !!! They arrived on time, were so incredibly personable and had a schedule to do each of us 5 girls that were getting done! Thank you so very much for putting your beautiful finishing touches on us all!!
Response from the Vendor on 11/17/2021
Thank you so much Linda! We had such a great time getting everyone ready for Laurens big day! We're so happy everyone enjoyed it all!
I cannot begin to thank The Finishing Touch enough for helping make my wedding day unbelievable. They are very down to earth people that really know their way with hair and makeup. There were 5 of us that they did full hair and makeup and everyone looked beautiful. There was not one thing I would change. They made us all feel relaxed, beautiful, and at ease. They came to our venue to get us all ready. I highly recommend them.
Response from the Vendor on 11/17/2021
Thank you so much Lauren! It was an absolute pleasure working with you and your family!
Lauren and Christine did an amazing job for my wedding. I had 9 people to get done, and they efficiently worked with all of us to give us great looks, both with and without airbrush. Everyone loved their makeups and they lasted through the warmer than average October day, some rain, and lots of dancing. They were also very willing to work around my skin allergies and sensitivities so my makeup was comfortable as well as beautiful. I can't recommend them enough

Thank you so much Cheryl! We loved being a part of your big day and we are so glad everyone loved their makeup!
The Finishing Touch was absolutely incredible to work with from start to finish. When we realized we had no one to style our hair or do our make-up for the big day, I had no idea where to even start looking. Christine was very professional and polite over the phone, working with me to find out exactly what I needed so she could pair us with the right people. I never expected her to get back to me the same day the way she did. She found two women to do the hair and make-up for myself, my mother, my mother-in-law, my step-mother-in-law, and my four bridesmaids (8 women total). The prompt response and all the time she spent helping me had me in awe from day one.
Sam was extremely quick, professional, and polite with working with each of us to make sure we were not only pleased with how our hair styles currently looked but in making sure they would last the night. Lindsay was also very professional, taking extra time ensuring everyone's make-up looked perfect for them and the dresses they were wearing. Both women were exceptionally fun to work with and good humored despite starting early to make sure everyone got done in time. Overall, we could not have been happier with all the work the two of them did!

Thank you so much Joelle! We are so glad we were able to be a part of your big day and so happy everyone loved everything!
I can’t recommend The Finishing Touch enough! They were at the venue early to set up and timed everything perfectly. Lindsay, Tracy, and Brandy did such a good job on me, 7 bridesmaids, my mom, and my mother-in-law. They took their time with each of us, really listened to our wants for hair and makeup, and exceeded our expectations. Everyone looked so good! We all did airbrush for our makeup which stayed all day and night with no touch ups needed. Overall I’m so impressed with The Finishing Touch!
Response from the Vendor on 11/17/2021
Thank you so much Ellie! It is always so wonderful working with you and your friends and family!
I am so grateful for The Finishing Touch!! Christine was so patient with me throughout the whole process and the day of my wedding was no exception! The staff was there bright and early at our venue to set up. They made everything look so easy. Christine, Lauren and their staff did such a beautiful job with hair and makeup on my wedding day for me, my bridesmaids, mom, and mother-in-law. Everyone looked spectacular. I recommend the airbrush because it added the extra wow factor! Thank you ladies for everything. I am so happy to have chosen you!!

Thank you so much Antonella! We had such a great time on your wedding day and are so excited you loved everything!
Choosing the Finishing Touch for my wedding was a great decision! Christine, Lindsay, and Tracy took their time on each and every one of us. We all looked so beautiful. They were all very friendly and accommodating to my large wedding party, and I couldn't be more grateful.
Had such a great experience with Lindsay and Tracy! Both professional and listened to exactly what I wanted my look to be on my big day. They also did 6 of my bridesmaids' makeup and hair and they all looked phenomenal as well! Highly recommend them for anyone getting married in the area!
The Finishing Touch team is fantastic! They were very easy to work with in planning and also fun to hang out with on the wedding day! I loved every one of my bridesmaids' hair and makeup as well as my own. They were also very timely and we even finished ahead of schedule which was nice so we were not rushing! I would definitely recommend their services to another bride!
I can not emphasize enough how awesome it was to have The Finishing Touch for my wedding! Sam did an amazing job on all of our hair! It was such an easy process to book them and the communication throughout was awesome. Book them for your wedding, you will not be let down!
Lauren and Tracey did an amazing job for my bridal party, mothers and I’s makeup and hair for my wedding day! They were very professional and easy going. They were able to create the exact look that we were all going for and we’re very helpful with giving suggestions! I highly recommend them!!
Lauren is an amazing makeup artist! She did a phenomenal job on achieving the look I wanted for my wedding day. She listened to my ideas but also made suggestions along the way. She is very meticulous about her work and makes sure you are happy with the results. I would highly recommend her services for any special occasion.
Lauren and Christine have been so kind and helpful. I am not someone who gets all done up on the regular and they have been great with giving me suggestions and making sure I am comfortable with what they have done at the trial. They are experts at creating a makeup and hair look that doesnt look too drastic but will definitely show up and will look defined and beautiful in wedding pictures. They have a very cheerful and relaxed personality and that is exactly the kind of people I want to be around on my wedding day! :) I will definitely be recommending them to friends in the future!
Lauren and Tracey did mine and my bridal party’s hair and make-up for our recent wedding. They did such a great job, everyone was so happy with how they looked. They were professional, worked in a timely manner, and super sweet. I would highly recommend them!
I cannot day enough good things about The Finishing Touch!! They did the hair and make up for my sisters wedding and they did such a great job that I booked them for my wedding! They did my hair & make up as well as all of my bridesmaids and mom/mother-in-law. Everyone’s hair and make up was absolutely stunning. All of my bridesmaids were so thrilled and amazed with their work (it still comes up in conversation to this day months later because they loved Christine & Lauren that much!) Personally, I would recommend them as a bride (x100). They made my wedding morning so seamless and gave so much peace of mind because I knew I was in good hands and didn’t have to worry. They were so fun, efficient, and they hit the nail on the head every time with what you describe. They do such a good job of enhancing beauty and keeping it looking more on the natural side and not overdone. It sounds so cheesy but they really made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day and that was such a gift. I have recommended them to numerous friends and family.

Thank you so much. It was a pleasure to be part of your big day! We enjoyed you, your bridesmaids, and family!
Christine and Lauren were amazing! I just got married 10/19 and I highly recommend the finishing touch! Throughout the whole process they communicated with me quickly, efficiently, and had so many patients. Our hair and makeup was flawless.all the girls loved their looks and we had so many compliments! You can’t go wrong with booking them!!
These ladies were so amazing, they were flexible with fitting everyone in and were able to do any hair style we wanted. The makeup was not over the top and felt natural but beautiful. We had such a great time with them getting ready and could not have asked for a better experience!
These ladies are absolutely amazing! I felt like a princess on my wedding day and it was thanks to them. They were so patient and professional through multiple last minute changes and they truly listened to the requests I had made during the trial AND on the day of my wedding. Thank you both for being such a big part of our big day, I would recommend you to anyone in a heartbeat!
A Big Thank You to The Finishing Touch!!! Our son was married on September 20th, we had a house full of family who got the hair and make done by Lauren and Christine. They did not disappoint one of us, the complements we received were endless. I would highly recommend them and we plan on using them again.
I cannot thank The Finishing Touch by C&G enough. Not only was our hair and make up absolutely beautiful, the girls were very professional yet easy to talk to. They captured everything my bridesmaids and I wanted. I HIGHLY recommend these girls and will definitely be contacted them again for my next event.
I used The Finishing Touch for my August 3rd wedding and had a great experience! Christine was always super prompt in answering in a timely manner and was really approachable. They simply would not accept anything less than 100% satisfaction for your wedding day which goes to show how much they care about their customers and your big day. The ONLY thing that tripped me up was that there are actually five stylists. When I booked I booked with The Finishing Touch because I loved what Christine and her sister did with my best friend’s sister’s wedding. When I got a different stylist I was confused and initially slightly disappointed. However after working with Brandy she was just as amazing and I would recommend her and anyone who works for them because they have such high standards in quality and care. Would definitely re-book with them :)
Used these ladies for my wedding in August and they were awesome! Christine got back to me quickly on everything and sent me a schedule for the day that I was able to send to all of the girls so everyone knew the order so they could be ready to go when called. Christine, Lauren, Lindsay, and Sam were amazing and so fast. Everyone looked and felt beautiful! Highly recommend them for wedding hair and makeup 😊
I used The Finishing Touch for my wedding in June and I could not have been happier with their work. Lauren was so helpful with any questions I had prior. Sam and Lindsay were an awesome hair/make up team. The day of the wedding they were early, organized, and worked in a timely manner. I had 9 people getting hair/make up done and they were able to have everyone done by 1 for my 2:00 wedding. Sam did an excellent job at working with a variety of hair styles and requests. Lindsay made all of our make up look so natural. For someone who does not wear make up much, this was exactly what I wanted. I would highly recommend The Finishing Touch for your wedding, you will not be disappointed!
Christine and Lauren did hair and makeup for myself, my mom, and my bridesmaids for my wedding on 5/18/19. Christine was quick to respond to my many questions leading up to my wedding day and both her and Lauren were wonderful to work with while we were getting ready. They arrived at my friend's apartment at the crack of dawn and had everyone set up and ready to go before most brideamaids arrived. Everyone's hair and makeup looked amazing and they perfectly captured the bridal look I was going for. On top of making everyone look their very best, they were such a fun time!
Thanks again for the amazing service and such a fun time! I would absolutely recommend them! 10/10!
I am really happy that I chose The Finishing Touch for hair on my wedding day! I was a little worried about finding someone to do our hair on-site with a limited amount of time to get 7 girls ready -- and Christine was perfectly on time and even finished ahead of schedule. My bridesmaids as well as the 2 moms - all loved their hair styles. Not to mention, Christine is a positive person with good energy to have around as you & your girls get ready!
I did a trial a few weeks beforehand (she has a lovely studio for the trial), but I decided the day-of my wedding to change the style. I showed Christine a picture and she recreated it beautifully. She double-checked throughout the process that I was happy and made sure it was exactly what I wanted. I definitely recommend the Finishing Touch!

Thank you so much Becca! It was a pleasure to work with you and your girls! Thank you for having me on your special day!
-Christine
Lindsay and Christine were the best for hair and makeup on my wedding day! I met with Christine a few months ahead of my big day and she helped me pick a hair do and general makeup beforehand. I did not know completely what I wanted and Christine was awesome at putting what I was able to convey on my face and hair! On the big day, I actually decided that I wanted to change my hair slightly, and Christine was perfect and helped my whole vision come together! Both Lindsay and Christine were so nice and so happy to be apart of my team for the day and all of my bridesmaids absolutely loved them and how they looked that day! I would highly recommend The Finishing Touch as your hair/makeup team and I am so glad that I did!
I was so pleased with the work by Lauren! All of my bridesmaids and I were so happy with her work - our make up looked beautiful! I would definitely recommend using The Finishing Touch! You will not be disappointed! :)

Thank you so much for your kind words! I am so glad everyone enjoyed their makeup! Thanks for having us!
-Lauren
I absolutely loved the way my hair and makeup turned out on my wedding day, all due to these ladies! We had Lindsay for makeup and Sam for hair. They came to our hotel, were on time, knowledgeable, and so efficient! I am very happy that I went with The Finishing Touch! You will not be disappointed!

We are so glad you enjoyed your hair and makeup! Thanks for choosing us!
These ladies are amazing! We had lauren on makeup and Christine on hair and everyone was so happy! My hair didnt move an inch the whole night and my makeup never ran or faded! They were pleasant and wonderful and made everyone feel beautiful! They gave me exactly what I wanted! I highly recommend them!

We were so glad to be there on your big day Jill! Thanks so much for using us again!
Love love this team! I had a very large bridal party so their team had four artists work on my party. Every single artist was great. They used two girls for hair and two for makeup. Everyone was so happy with their day of look, and looked amazing in photos. They were so professional, and had everyone done on time. It was such an enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend them to any bride!
Response from the Vendor on 11/13/2018
So glad you were happy with everything! We loved your big bridal party! So much fun!
WOW! These sisters are phenomenal. I took a chance by not completing a trial for hair or makeup and was thrilled with the outcome. We had a large group with 7 people getting makeup and 8 people getting hair done that morning and they were so professional and aware of the time frame we had to work within. They listened to each of the girls desires of personalized style and they all looked beautiful! I would recommend this duo without reservation !!
Response from the Vendor on 11/13/2018
Thanks a bunch Kim! You were great to work with!
If you are getting married book The Finishing Touch! I was a bridesmaid in a wedding 2 years ago and we had our makeup done by artists with The Finishing Touch. When it was time for my wedding this year, I decided to also book through them based on my prior experience and other reviews I had read. I worked with Lauren and Brandy this time, and everything went so smoothly and all my girls looked amazing! The contract was very thorough and explained all day of information that I needed. Lauren answered my emails in a timely manner and was able to help with any questions I had. My trial went very well and I was very confident for my day of hair and makeup. There were 9 of us that needed hair and makeup and we were ahead of schedule all morning, even with touchups. I highly recommend The Finishing Touch for all future brides!
The Finishing Touch was recommended to me by a very close family friend that had also used this company for her wedding. I made sure I still did my research on multiple hair and make up companies to ensure I was going to get not only exceptional service, but also reasonable pricing to help out the cost for my bridal party. Both my Mom and I did a hair and make up trial (it was a birthday gift from me to her)! We were SO impressed by the trial, it certainly made all worries wash away for the big day! Lauren did our make up and Tracy did our hair! We are so grateful for their amazing work! This company is extremely reasonably priced and offers a top notch hair and make up service! I would absolutely recommend them to any and all friends and family of mine getting married!
I don’t even know where to begin! I found the finishing touch on the knot and reached out because of their rave reviews. I set up a trial and met with Christine and Lauren who were so sweet and made me feel so comfortable. I have acne prone skin and have a ome dark marks that I obviously wanted covered but didn’t want to look or feel like I was wearing a ton of makeup. When Lauren finished, I was shocked with how flawless my skin looked AND that my face didn’t feel heavy with makeup. I had a huge bridal party of 12 girls, so they had their hands full! I changed the number of people who wanted hair and makeup and the place bout 5 times before they big day and they were so understanding and really worked with me. The day of was absolutely perfect. Christine, Lauren and Tracy were so organized and everyone felt and looked so beautiful. They gave ideas when some girls weren’t sure what they wanted and finished well before we needed to leave! All 14 (my mom included) of us felt so beautiful and still looked beautiful 11 hours later when the night was over. I can’t thank them enough for all that they did. They were so nice and fun and easy to work with. 5 stars isn’t enough!

Hey Kelsey! Thanks so much for your wonderful feedback. We really enjoyed working with you all of your ladies on the big day! So much fun! xo
Please be wary when booking the Finishing Touch. They are a less expensive option and get the job done. Do not expect a WOW experience. This is a small, side business and is treated as such.
I first met Christine and Lauren (sisters) when they provided hair and make up services for a friends wedding that I was a bridesmaid in. I was impressed by their friendliness and how quickly (and nice!) they did my hair.
When it came time for my own wedding, I booked them immediately. During my initial emails, I expressed how excited I was to work specifically with them, "the sisters."
Though I was terribly disappointed to find out--- when i arrived for my hair/make up trial--that two other artists named Lindsay (make up) and Sam (hair), would be doing our wedding. I received no prior notice about the change. To add insult to injury ,the artists did not even know when and where my wedding was taking place!
Please note a few other details when selecting the Finishing Touch:
-The website states "A trial is available for any of the below services at the location of your choice." This is not true. You must go to their in-home studio in Perkasie, PA. It is a lovely studio, though it is deceptive that it is different than the website. I pointed this out to Lauren twice over the past five months, and the website still has this incorrect messaging.
-If you have a downtown/ city wedding, please note that you will have to pay for parking for both artists. This is outlined the contract in advance.
-The instructions for the bridesmaid's hair are not clear. Day-of the artist told the bridesmaids different instructions about wet vs. dry hair.
-The schedule does not give specific time slots and the hair and make up artists finished at different times. It would have been nice if they stayed until the end to do a final round of touch ups.
-Lindsay, the make up artist, did not bring a hand mirror so we had to go back and forth to be bathroom for touch ups.
-The final hair and make up for the wedding was fine. Some of the girls went back to their room and re-did theirs. As the bride, I went back for several rounds of touch ups. For example, during the first round my dark lip stain was jagged and messy.
Finally, they are the only vendor to not send follow up email after the event to thank me for the business and ask for any feedback. Had they done this, perhaps this review would not be so critical.

Hi There,
Thank you for your feedback. We do have a wonderful team of artists that work with us. If Lauren and I are booked already our other artists will be booked. This is typically clear during the conversation as we never want a bride to be...
taken off guard. We do have a studio that we hold trials out of, and ask that parking be available to any artists working with you on your wedding day.
I will not address each of your concerns on this webpage, but will reach out to you again directly in order to follow up. I hope you had a wonderful wedding day.
Christine
Amazing ladies to work with! Prior to my wedding they were in touch to make sure we had enough time to finish all my girls and both Mom’s without rushing before photos. They made up a schedule and sent to me prior to day of so we were organized. The arrived early to set up to my suite. Their attention to detail with both hair and make up was fantastic! All my ladies including myself were super excited with how both hair and make up came out. And everything stayed all night long.
If I could rate The Finishing Touch ladies more than a 5 I would. They were beyond amazing the day of my wedding and leading up to the big day they were very attentive and made sure we had enough people to get us all done in time. Super professional and we all looked like super models heading to the venue!! They came to us the morning of the event which made everything so easy for us!! I can’t say enough great things about them!
Lauren and Christine were awesome! I was so happy with my look after the trial and they replicated it flawlessly on the wedding day. I wanted natural makeup and a simple, yet elegant updo and they both hit the mark. They came up with a schedule for myself and 7 others and we finished with plenty of time to spare. They were a pleasure to be around and took everyone’s vision and executed it perfectly. All the ladies were so happy with how beautiful they looked! Makeup and hair stayed strong all night, even with lots of dancing!
The Finishing Touch was amazing to work with!! They made getting ready for my big day easy and fun! The hair and makeup services were so beautiful. My bridesmaids and I looked amazing!! They were professional and amazing at what they do! I would definitely recommend The Finishing Touch :)
Were so friendly and did an amazing job on me and my bridesmaids!
Lauren and Brandy did an excellent job with hair and makeup! It lasted all day and looked FLAWLESS in pictures. My friends and family raved about my hair and makeup and pictures. After my hair trial, I changed my mind about the look I was going for, and they were both super flexible and understand. That was so important to me as a super stressed out and indecisive bride. I also highly recommend them for your engagement pictures! I hope to use them again in the future for maternity or other special photo shoots. Great choice!
Lauren and her team are absolutely amazing!! They listen to exactly what you want and do everything to ensure you are happy with the look. I am someone who wanted a very natural look with makeup and Lauren did just that. They are very accommodating and made the morning of the big day go as smoothly as possible. I highly recommend The Finishing Touch, these girls know their hair and makeup!
Lauren and Christine were a pleasure to work with. They are so helpful and willing to make your special day perfect. Lauren has SO much makeup and can do absolutely anything you ask her. Christine is fantastic with all hair types and styles. She even styled my mom who has short hair, but wanted it a little more fancy. They are super professional and great at their jobs. I loved the fact that they come to you to get ready which made the day so much more relaxing and enjoyable. I was beyond happy with the way my hair and makeup turned out and all my bridesmaids looked absolutely stunning! These ladies really know their stuff and I would absolutely hire again and recommend to anyone!
Christine and her assistant were absolutely incredible. Christine was easy to communicate with, and listened to feedback I had when doing my trial. She listened to my requests when I threw her a curveball and wanted to change my hair the day of lol. I would absolutely hire The finishing touch all over again!!
The girls at Finishing Touch were amazing to work with. We worked with Lindsay for makeup and Sam and Alyssa for hair and they all did a great job! I had a large group of girls getting hair and makeup done on a tight schedule the morning of my wedding and they were able to finish ahead of schedule, allowing the morning to be completely stress free! All of my girls looked amazing and loved their looks. I even changed my mind last minute wanting my hair completely different than my trial and Sam was able to accommodate and make my hair perfect for the big day. Their prices are also extremely reasonable, something my bridesmaids appreciated. I would highly recommend the Finishing Touch!
Lauren was great to work with! I chose Finishing Touch from the millions of choices because they would make the trip to our hotel for on site service. I really didn't want the added logistics of getting to a salon... or the steep Main Line prices. Finishing Touch has great prices for beautiful work. Both Lauren and Brandy were friendly, professional, and talented. All of my bridesmaids were thrilled with how their hair and makeup turned out and even more thrilled to still look flawless at 10 pm after dancing up a storm in the July heat! Can Lauren do my make up every day?!
Christine and Lauren are absolutely wonderful! As someone who has difficult skin, doesn’t wear much make-up and has two go-to hair styles, I was anxious about my wedding day hair and make-up as I didn’t want to look too ‘made up’. All my anxieties were calmed when I went for my trial. Both Lauren and Christine listened to my concerns and it took no time for them to find the right look for me. The day of the wedding, they made me and my ladies feel beautiful and special! Having them onsite with us eliminated so much stress from the day. I felt naturally beautiful and I have The Finishing Touch to thank!
These girls did makeup for my wedding. Not only were they incredibly sweet and down-to-earth, they were incredibly professional and flexible with what we wanted. Thanks so much for being a part of my special day!!
I hired The Finishing Touch for their makeup services. Lauren was so great to work with and so very sweet! I do not wear much makeup normally, so I was nervous about my wedding-day look and "not looking like myself". Lauren rid me of my fears - she highlighted my natural features and worked with me to find a look I loved. My girls looked so gorgeous and we all felt beautiful! Thank you so much Lauren and The Finishing Touch!!!

Thank you so much! We are so glad you loved your makeup!!
Truly a pleasure to work with, Lauren and Christine did the hair and make up for all the women in my wedding - and they did an amazing job. They were accommodating with my last minute hair and make up changes and were committed to making sure I felt like I looked perfect - and I did! All of the make up was natural and not overdone, the hair styles stayed all night and were stunning. They were very flexible with my specific scheduling requests. I would absolutely highly recommend them for any wedding. Professional, talented and a pleasure to spend your wedding morning with!

So happy we could be with you on your big day!
Lauren did a great job with my wedding makeup! She made sure to stay in contact with me leading up to our wedding day, including sending a schedule for everyone who planned to have their makeup done the day of the wedding. All of my bridesmaids as well as both mom’s had their makeup done on my wedding day. The day of our wedding I loved how everyone’s makeup turned out! Also, I cried a lot on my wedding day; from the first look, to our first dance, toasts and more. Thanks to Lauren’s awesome work makeup stayed beautifully in tack all night! I recommend everyone in the area book The Finishing Touch!
The girls at Finishing Touch are life savers!! I had to last minute reach out to them because my original plan fell through and they were extremely accommodating, responsive and helpful. I didn't even have a trial because we couldn't fit it in but I felt so comfortable just talking with them and sending them pictures, I knew they were listening and would take care of me. Wedding day was smooth and Christine was awesome! She cared and listened to what everyone wanted and made any changes and made sure everyone was happy. She convinced me to wear lashes and thank god she did! Such a huge difference. I was extremely happy with their service and their skills and they are just all around great people! Would recommend them to anyone!!
The girl were amazing! I could not have been happier on how my hair & makeup came out as well as my bridesmaids! I would highly recommend them.
Christine and Lauren were great to work with! They answered all my questions and were very responsive! Brandy and Lindsay did my hair and makeup trial and then were with me and my bridesmaids the day of the wedding. They arrived early, fit right in and kept us all on schedule. They were extremely flexible and did an awesome job! I loved my hair and makeup for the day!

We are so glad you loved your services!
These girls are AMAZING!
Not only were they early and super fast, but they do an amazing job. The did hair and makeup for my wedding including me, my mom, mother in-law, 5 bridesmaids, and one flower girl. We all looked fantastic! I never wear any makeup so this is something that is way out of my comfort zone, but they made me feel super comfortable and look gorgeous. My makeup was super natural and exactly what I was looking for. I had an updo that was hassle free all night and looked effortless.
Their pricing was so reasonable and I could not have been more happy with their work.
I would recommend them to anyone!
Christine, Lauren, and their team were fantastic! They were on time, well prepared, and incredibly flexible with our large group- myself and my 11 bridesmaids, plus flower girls and other family members. They helped put together a schedule beforehand so that everyone was well coordinated, but they were awesome at adapting that when things had to be changed last minute the day of. They were very responsive and easy to work with in the months and weeks leading up to the wedding. I opted out of having a hair and makeup trial done beforehand after seeing photos of their work. I was so, so happy with both my hair and makeup, and was most happy with how comfortable and at ease they made me feel on my wedding day. They are fun and funny ladies, and all of my bridesmaids and family members raved about them! I would recommend them in a heartbeat.
I truly have never felt more beautiful!!! My hair and makeup were fantastic, and the bridesmaids all look impeccable. I really really love everyone's makeup!!! And Jill was so nice to let my stepdaughter play on her phone while she got her hair done, resulting in no less than 1,000 very very random photos!! Sorry about that!!

So happy to hear!
The girl were absolutely amazing! They were fast and everyone looked great! My hair for my wedding came out better than I could have wanted. They made my wedding special. We will definitely be using them again for future events and other family weddings.
The girls at Finishing Touch did an amazing job with hair and makeup for my wedding. I would absolutely use them again. I felt gorgeous on my wedding day and they took what I wanted with my hair and totally surpassed expectations. All of my bridesmaids look beautiful as well. I would recommend Finishing Touch to anyone!
I highly recommend! Christine did my hair and makeup as well as my bridesmaids. She is very nice, professional and Did a fantastic job for my March 2016 wedding. The morning was fantastic getting ready with all my girls and Christine was a great part of it. I looked fantastic and even after dancing it up my hair stayed looking perfect....it actually was still looking great the next morning. Very affordable and a fantastic business.

Thank you so much! I loved to be part of your big day!
I used Jill to do updo's on my girls for my wedding back in August and am so glad I did. She was great at her job and so fast too! She averaged 30-40 minutes on each girl which was so impressive! She arrived early and made sure to take the time after all of the girls were done to do any touch-ups. I would definitely recommend the Finishing Touch!

We are so glad you loved us! Thank you! We would love to see some pictures :-)
Lauren and Christine are amazing! They had very reasonable prices and were so very easy to work with. I had my hair and make up trial with them and they were able to use my ideas to create the perfect look for my big day. On my wedding day, my bridesmaids,mom, and grandmother all looked amazing and were so very happy with their looks. Unfortunately, I had to go to the hospital so I was unable to get my hair and make up done by them, but they were willing to come and do my beauty needs there. Their kindness is so appreciated. I would highly recommend them to any bride looking for hair and make up artists.

So glad you were happy with everything! So happy you made it to your wedding!
Lauren and Christine did hair and makeup for myself, my bridesmaids, my aunt, and the MOB/MOG on my wedding day. I can't express enough how good of a job they did! I was so happy, as well as all of the other ladies, with their work! I did a trial with them first; I loved what they did, but wanted to tweak it just a little bit the day of, and it was exactly as I had imagined! They were both very professional and easy/fun to work with! They worked really well with everyone's ideas and pictures from Pinterest ect., giving us exactly what we wanted! I would highly recommend them to anyone for their wedding day or any other special occasions!
