They perfectly captured my vision and made me feel beautiful all day long ( as always!) . The makeup was flawless, long-lasting, and looked natural. Everyone’s hair and makeup looked stunning and held up beautifully through every moment. The team was professional, attentive, and truly talented. I highly recommend XXOO studios for anyone looking for exceptional hair and makeup services! Taylor truly put my vision to life!!! She is the best of the best!!!!

Taylor and her team are absolutely amazing! I can’t say enough nice things about them. They are professional, talented, well-priced, organized, and so much fun to work with! I was initially so worried about getting my bridal hair done because I’ve had a hard time in the past finding hair stylists that are experienced in working with naturally curly hair, but oh man Taylor knows exactly what she is doing with every hair type! Not to mention her amazing makeup skills!!! 10/10, thank you, Taylor!!!

BRIDE HERE 👰🏼♀️✨💕
I will say they SLAYED EVERYTHING!!
Booking hair and makeup services for my wedding with my Bridal Party(6) through XXOO STUDIO WEDDINGS, with Taylor and Karly, was a seamless process. When my preferred trial date conflicted with the original artist's availability, they efficiently secured a substitute, which I greatly appreciated. On the wedding day, timely execution was delivered. Communication from the initial quote to the day of the event was seamless. Taylor expertly handled hair, while Karly skillfully managed makeup. Both arrived early, thoroughly prepared and put me at ease. Their professionalism made the experience enjoyable. My hair and makeup remained flawless until 2 a.m. I felt stunning and confident. I highly recommend them and plan to utilize their services for future events.

We hired Taylor for my sister-in-laws wedding on 11/18. She was so amazing!!! She asked each girl individually what they desired for their look, yet we still all coordinated so well. She was such a fun personality to spend time with and I hope to use her again soon!

I’ve known Taylor for some time and have used her for my own cut and colors. But with your wedding there’s obviously added pressure; Taylor and her team were up for the challenge. They were punctual. Managed to get 11+ people ready AHEAD of schedule. And helped make the day light hearted and fun. Not to mention, her prices are VERY competitive with others in the industry. Taylor and her team achieved the look I was going for and I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out for my special day. Super thankful to have her in my corner.

I don’t think I’ll ever use another hair stylist after meeting Taylor! She did my hair for my Miss Texas USA headshots and killed it!! Not only did she take the time to make sure my hair was absolutely perfect, but she also provided the best moral support through the shoot. I’m convinced she can read minds because when I had an idea of what I wanted, and she went above and beyond my expectations. (I’m already planning to book flights back to Fort Worth just to keep getting my hair done by Taylor when I head off to college)

Firstly, we contacted Taylor in a very short time period and she came through with FLYING COLORS! She had a bride, 4 bridesmaids, and a mother of the bride looking spectacular in 2 hours! She has great technique, a fun personality and reasonable pricing. We are SO THANKFUL we were able to hire Taylor for our event. She made getting ready so fun, and we all looked beautiful!

Taylor was AMAZING! She went above and beyond for me, my bridesmaids, the MOB, and MOG, making us all look and feel beautiful! At the end of our wedding, guests were commenting that it looked as if my hair and makeup had just been done, even though it had been done 12 hours earlier! She is a must have for your wedding hair and make up, and will make you feel like the most beautiful bride in the world!!

Taylor KILLED IT. I had 7 people and they finished all of us in 4 hours. My makeup was perfect all day even through multiple tears. My curls also didn’t fall at all. I also felt very safe covid wise. They kept masks on the whole time and washed hands in between each person. She talked through makeup and hair with each person to get what they wanted. I also did a bridal trial and she took pictures/videos so she knew what to do the day of!

Taylor made me look and feel GORGEOUS on my wedding day! She carefully listened to what I wanted, and she also made helpful suggestions about my bridal look. My hair and makeup looked just as flawless as the end of the night as it did right after Taylor finished up. The best part was that Taylor helped me feel less nervous before I walked down the aisle. I can't recommend her enough!!!

Taylor is amazing! She exudes professionalism and remained in constant communication with me. She encountered some traffic the morning of my wedding, she let me know immediately, and shared her location with me so I could anticipate her arrival. Despite the traffic, she still arrived before us and was setup and ready to go. She made us all look so beautiful. I highly recommend her. She has a great personality and attitude. As well, she’s truly talented in her craft.

Taylor was absolutely a dream to work with! From the first consultation I knew I found the right person I could trust to make me feel beautiful on my wedding day. She was so easy to talk to and get along with, a true professional and such a talented artist. I showed her pictures of what I wanted and she delivered even better than I could’ve ever imagined! On the wedding day, Taylor arrived to my parent’s house early (which was awesome) and made everyone feel so comfortable and had my bridal party and my mom looking beautiful! If you’re looking for a wonderful hair/makeup artist and someone who makes you feel like you’re just hanging out with one of your girlfriends, Taylor is your girl! I would HIGHLY recommend her for any wedding, special event or even just a night out!

Taylor was absolutely fantastic! She was professional, but still so much fun. She 100% nailed the exact look I was going for, and listened to me and my girls when we explained what we wanted for our hair and makeup. Taylor truly went the extra mile, she was willing to work with me on time schedules, and even came later to do a touch up! I don’t think that I can recommend Taylor enough, she made my wedding day that much more special.

As the mother of the bride, I could not have asked for a better experience for my daughter and the bridal party when Taylor and her assistant made us all absolutely beautiful for this special day! Taylor took the time to make sure that everyone’s personality and inner beauty was part of every hairstyle and make-up that she and her assistant did that day. Taylor is fun, energetic and so very talented and made certain that we had a positive experience. Plus, we all looked absolutely precious!!

My wedding day was exactly how I pictured it would be, and I credit much of that to Taylor and Jaclynn. From the vision we created during my bridal trial to the end result on my wedding day, Taylor's work was phenomenal. Easily the best my hair and makeup have ever looked. I wish I could see her before all of my special occasions from now on! I have no problem recommending the work of XXOO Studio to anybody in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. She is willing to go to any length to make sure you look perfect on your wedding day.

Taylor and Jaclynn were absolutely incredible! I was a bridesmaid at my childhood best friend's wedding. Since I arrived early, I had to get my hair and makeup done second so I was worried it would all be ruined by the end of the night. To my very pleasant surprise, everything was in tact. Jaclynn crushed my half up/down do and gave me the exact look I wanted. She is like a hair architect! Taylor truly paid attention to my face shape and coloring. I had broken out from a plane ride the night before and you could not tell. They were also really fun to chat with and such amazing girls! Very professional.

Taylor flew to California to do hair and makeup for my wife and her bridal party. She even agreed to style my hair along with a few of my Groomsmen who had longer hair. She was extremely professional and even handled her own with a crazy group of guys right before the wedding. Taylor noticed one of my groomsmen needed his sideburns trimmed and she took care of it on the spot! The groomsmen are often forgotten and Taylor made us feel important and beautiful, too! 😊

Taylor is AMAZING! She did my hair and makeup for bridals in Dallas. I had *kind of* an idea what I wanted and she was able to look at me, my hair, and my dress and create the perfect style. My makeup was done *perfectly* to not only last in brutal Texas heat but to photograph so well!
I had worked with her previously for a much more glamorous photo shoot but to see the dream bridal look was something else.
Taylor is timely, professional, sweet, informative, and creative. I’d book her again and again!

Taylor and Jaclynn were the DREAM TEAM for my wedding hair and makeup!! They made me and all 9 of my bridesmaids look like elegant timeless Hollywood-chic beauties! Taylor worked with me for my bridal hair and makeup as well, and she made me look like a dream! She is passionate, funny, and so intuitive on how to bring out every girl’s unique beauty! She was responsive, attentive, and made me feel like my wedding look/day was just as important to her as it was to me!! 10/10 recommend! I have never felt as beautiful as I did on my wedding day because of Taylor and her team!!

I had the pleasure of having XXOO Studio do my hair and makeup in the past and I had a great experience and LOVED my look. When it was my turn to get married, I couldn’t think of anyone else I would trust for my big day. Taylor agreed to travel to California to do my bridal party’s hair and makeup! It was one of the few things I didn’t have to worry about. There isn’t anything she won’t do for her brides. She listens to how each person describes their style and how they would like to look. She offers appropriate and helpful suggestions and, let me tell you, TRUST HER! She knows what she’s doing and she will make you look and feel as gorgeous as you already know you are. Taylor creates a comfortable environment and, most importantly, provides professional hair and makeup services that last and look amazing. I cannot thank her enough and would recommend her to anyone, any day!

Taylor and her team were amazing! When I visited her for my trial I showed her two different pictures for my hair and she created exactly what I was looking for. She arrived on time, is affordable, and was easy to connect with throughout the time leading up to the wedding. There is no one I would’ve rather had prep me for the big day. My makeup and hair stayed in perfect condition for 10+ hours. Thank you so much!!

Taylor and Celeste are SO FANTASTIC! They did makeup for my sister's wedding party. They made everyone look absolutely beautiful while also still looking like themselves. They were super easy and fun to work with while also maintaining uber professionalism. They arrived on site early, ready to go, and even got all 8 of us made up and out the door early as well. I can't recommend XXOO Studio enough - they were perfection.
