had my grandma get her makeup done and they did great with her mature skin and she was so excited.
I went to them because I wanted to look like myself on my wedding day and speaking with Stephanie, that’s what they specialize in. After the trial, I knew I made the right choosing them. On my wedding day, I felt incredible! They stayed on schedule but were responsive to everyone’s needs! We have Stephanie doing hair and Kat and Jen doing makeup. Everyone was simply amazing!! Highly recommend Twisted Fishtail Beauty for your wedding!
Me (the bride), my 5 bridesmaids, and the mother of the bride all got our hair done for the big day. She was able to work with all hair types: curly, fine, short, long, etc. Had a ...

very thorough with asking questions to make sure my hair turned out how I wanted. My hair was secure and lasted the whole night! Micayla did an amazing job with my makeup, too! I showed her some inspiration pics and she was able to match exactly what I wanted. These women are Team Bride and absolute girls’ girls; I will be recommending them to everyone I know moving forward!
Jen and Stephanie completely exceeded my expectations! From the very beginning, they listened to what I wanted and guided me in a way that made me feel so comfortable and confident...
. I originally thought I wanted a nude lip, but after talking with them we went with a deep purple and it ended up being my absolute favorite part of my look! I felt so beautiful, and the compliments never stopped all night.
My hair stayed perfectly in place from start to finish, and my makeup never moved! I didn’t even need to touch it up once, even though they gave me a little kit just in case. More than anything, they made the entire process stress free and enjoyable. I never had to worry for a second, and that peace of mind is priceless on such an important day. I’m so grateful to have had them by my side, they made me feel stunning inside and out! Thank you!!
I cannot recommend Twisted Fishtail Beauty Collective enough! They did both hair and makeup for me and all of my bridesmaids for my wedding, and everything turned out absolutely st...
unning. Not only did everyone look amazing, but they truly listened to each of us and made sure we felt comfortable and confident with our individual looks.
They were professional, warm, and so easy to work with throughout the entire process—from trial to wedding day. The team kept things running smoothly and on time, and brought such a calming, positive energy to the getting-ready experience. Every detail was handled with care, and the end result was even better than I imagined.
If you're looking for a team that’s talented, reliable, and genuinely cares about making you feel your best, Twisted Fishtail Beauty Collective is it. Thank you so much for being such a special part of our day!

un and day of. She even incorporated some techniques to make my hair look fuller without using extensions, as this was something I had been concerned about. Stephanie helped the coordination of everything go completely smoothly and was very responsive, including to my request to add my mom’s hair a few weeks before the wedding. Would absolutely recommend twisted fishtail to anyone!
The girls did an amazing job! If you are looking for makeup & hair that’s not too much but an elevated version of yourself, this is the place!! Jen & Koryn were so on it and did su...
ch a beautiful job. My wedding day was the first time I met Koryn, but she understood my vision right away and delivered! She also made my sisters’ look incredible with their braids! Jen did even better than the trail run which I didn’t think was possible! I got compliments allll night long on how beautiful I looked! My sisters also loved their makeup, they were hesitant at first it would be too much but Jen did an amazing job still making them look natural. I recommend this company 1000%. The owner Stephanie is also so easy to work with & such a sweet person!! When I changed my mind on my hairstyle after the trial she supported me with it and made me feel so comfortable!
Stephanie was extremely helpful and responsive throughout my entire planning process. She got back to me so quickly after my first inquiry and I was so excited to be able to have b...
oth my hair and makeup done through one vendor. I was able to do a trial for both my hair and makeup and Stephanie even helped me purchase and wash my extensions so I didn't have to worry about it. On the day of, her and her team (Chrystal, Jen and Micayla) were very efficient and made me and my girls feel so beautiful and natural. I loved my natural makeup look and my hair also stayed nice and curled all night. Would definitely want to use Twisted Fishtail Beauty again!

trial was really helpful, Stephanie and her team made me feel comfortable and beautiful. When it came time for the day of, I didn’t need to stress at all about my hair and make up! They were punctual, professional, and did a wonderful job. This was also my mom’s first experience with this level of professional hair/make up, and she was really happy with how it turned out. 10/10 would recommend!
Super easy to work with! I absolutely loved having hair and makeup as one vendor rather than multiple

I cannot recommend this vendor enough, Stephanie and her team made my wedding day!
Prior to the wedding Stephanie clearly communicated expectations and coordinated my hair and mak...
eup preview. During my preview we made some minor adjustments and both Stephanie and Jen made me feel comfortable giving feedback and direction to make the look I envisioned.
The day of the wedding, her larger team made all my bridesmaids feel comfortable and brought the best attitude/energy to the bridal suite. We were genuinely sad to see them go when they were done with our services! Each girl's look turned out great and everyone looked their best.
They focus enhancing your natural beauty and not looking too overdone. I felt like the best version of myself on my wedding day thanks to their team.
I loved working with Stephanie, Koryn, and Jen! The lead up and planning for the hair and makeup was easy and clear. They took all my inspo pictures and helped me finalize my visio...
n to perfection. The preview appointment was well worth it and made the day of go so smoothly. Day of, my beauty team made everyone feel so gorgeous and fully themselves. More than half of my party doesn't wear makeup daily (myself included) but we all felt very comfortable with the process and how beautiful we looked. Koryn was so quick at everyone's hairstyles as well. I had a really intricate braided updo with a tiara and she nailed it. The two photos are from right after the service while the dress photo was almost 12 hours later. Only felt like I had to do touchups once for lips after dinner for magic hour photos. All of this during some 90 degree weather sometimes in full sun and with more than a few teary moments.
I cannot recommend the Twisted Fishtail team enough. Thank you so much for making me the loveliest bride on my wedding day!!
From start to finish I had an AMAZING experience! Stephanie and the team were very professional and communicated very well. I shared my vision with Micayla, my artist, and she went...
above and beyond! I would 100% recommend Twisted Fishtail to all my friends and fam for any hair or makeup needs!

to the next day for my brunch! Stephanie really took the time to listen to what I wanted and personalized my style for me and made any changes I wanted. She is flexible and so talented. Me and all my bridesmaids LOVED the way our hair looked! Stephanie is also great at communicating, professional and super reliable. She was able to guide me and help me figure out what would be best for my hair and look. She was super organized and made sure I had a timeline that worked well and always communicated the plans. The entire process of working with her is stress-free. Not only that, but she and her team are so kind, easy to talk to, and enjoyable to be around, which is really important because you spend hours of your morning on your wedding day with them! And she still came to do my hair at my wedding despite having a baby a WEEK before!! She is so dedicated and you can absolutely rely on her! I cannot recommend Stephanie and her team enough!! I’m so happy I hired her, I felt so beautiful on my wedding day. Thank you Stephanie!!

nsformed my vision into reality with precision and skill. I truly felt and looked like the woodland princess of my dreams! Not only was she professional, but her friendly demeanor also added a delightful touch to the entire experience. My entire bridal party was also thrilled with the stunning styles she effortlessly crafted for each of them. I can wholeheartedly recommend Twisted Fishtail and their entire team to every bride seeking a seamless blend of talent and warmth on their special day. Thank you so much Ally!!

I had Ally as my wedding hairstylist. She was AMAZING! She did 6 people in total, including myself (the bride). I did a preview appointment in June 2023 and decided to change the h...
airstyle completely from an updo to a half up half down hairstyle the month before the wedding which was in October 2023. She did an amazing job on both the preview appointment as well as the day of the wedding. She did a variety of hairstyles for my bridesmaids from ponytails, to braids, to fishtails. All of them came out BEAUTIFULLY. I highly recommend this vendor as your hairstylist team for your wedding and wedding party, you will NOT be disappointed.

ery responsive and showed excitement for our special day! My mother in law and I booked updos and even got to do a trial a little before the day of. Both turned out amazing on the trial day and when wedding day came there was nothing short from perfect! Stephanie was there on time, earlier than most of our other vendors and she started getting to work immediately. She was so nice and fun to work with and took her work very professionally but also showed her beautiful personality in not only her work, but her amazing attitude the morning of. She was stress-free to work with and overall made me feel like a true princess for my wedding day. I would definitely recommend booking this company for wedding day hair!! Thank you so much again Stephanie!!
