Bridal styling services
Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: I work to bring your inner beauty out - not paint a facade. Because I also own my own salon studio, I can take care of people in a salon setting, but also as a concierge stylist, so I can accommodate professionalism and privacy in either setting. I am a national Educator with Manic Panic, I am a certified in hair extension work, and I work with clients of all genders and ethnicities. When people see themselves for the first time for someone else's eyes, and they can see their own beauty shine out.

Amazing service at a wonderful value. Kind and progressional. I have a lot of hair which requires a lot of care and it was delivered to me with no complaints. The results speak for themselves- just look at my husband's face for that first look! I have no negative feedback.

Details: Wedding • 1 person • My home, venue, etc.

Rica is definitely a professional. I had my hair and makeup trial with her last week and I am confident I am in good hands for my wedding (which is next week!!). Before the trial, I sent her pics and videos of what I was looking for so she was prepared. At the trial, she gave me her expert opinion on what would/would not work and then worked her magic. I'm always a bit weary about having a professional do my makeup because I'm of Asian descent and most non-Asian MUAs don't know how to work with Asian features. I have to say... Rica impressed me! She did some research before the trial and then we worked with each other to get the ideal look for me for the wedding. Rica is also such an honest, trustworthy person. I could tell from reading her reviews and speaking to her via email and on the phone even before we met that she takes pride in what she does and she has experience too. Can't wait to see the final hair and makeup result on my wedding day!! I will post another review after the wedding!

Let me start by saying that I have super long hair, it's down to my knees. So Rica had a difficult task in front of her - to manage it into loose up do for my wedding. But she did an amazing job and my hair looked great! She used sewing technique to put it up, so it not just looked beautiful but also felt so light and secure. Even the rain didn't destroy it.
