Hair and Makeup
Belle Epoque

I don't normally go to this salon, but was looking for a downtown salon close to Club 1000 and a co-worker recommended this one. Darcy was the stylist that worked with me, although a few other stylists did the bridesmaids' hair. My hair turned out even better than I had hoped for! I loved the practice trial, but loved the day-of style 100 times better! The bridesmaids were all happy, too (as far as I know of!). We were able to bring in our own orange juice and champagne for Saturday morning mimosas and they even set up a table in the front window for us. Super cute environment and friendly employees = a great experience and way to start the day! They are on facebook or here is their website: http://www.belleepoque-kc.com/.

I have had CaraSue booked since last year. She is a little pricier than some people, but not all that much especially since she comes to you, and you get what you pay for. She came to my hotel room in the AM, which was super convenient because I was able to wake up just before she got there, haha. My hair and makeup stayed put all day, even after we marched around the city taking pictures before the ceremony. I had some wonderful comments on my hair and I really didn't want to wash it out, lol! This was actually the 2nd time we had worked together, because she did my hair/makeup for a bpics marathon shoot with Aaron from Blue Rue which I loved. She is also such a friendly, fun person that was great to work with!

I had gone back and forth on whether or not to do my own make up. I went for a trial with a professional make-up artist in April and hated it!! I was still undecided three weeks before the big day, so my friend suggested her hair stylist (who also applies makeup). I was a bit skeptical because I had already been disappointed after the first trial...I didn't want to get my hopes up only to be let down again. I went for a trial two weeks before the wedding and loved it! Emily was completely open and listened to the things I disliked about my first trial. I got so many compliments on my makeup on the day of and was even told I could be a model in a bridal magazine! Contact me if you would like Emily's number!

Katie is amazing! She looks at the pic of the dress, looks at your face shape and then does her magic. My hair came out so beautiful on my wedding day. It was $150 for the hair trial and actual wedding day updo. Stay away from getting your make-up done there though. Went in for a trial and it was horrible! The owner of the salon did my make-up and I didn't want any bad blood (since they were doing my hair) so I cancelled my appt for day-of wedding makeup and just said my friend was going to do it.

Pretty straight forward, I get my hair done there and they did a great job. The only thing is you have to make the actual bridal appointments in person, they won't do it over the phone. Not a big deal and my difficult hair stayed in place all day!

Also Amazing! Our make-up looked great and lasted
all day (even in the rain) and was definitely affordable.

My make-up looked great and think Tricia's prices were reasonable for what you're getting (she did raise them after I booked, but I still got the lower rates). My eyelashes were my favorite part! Def go for falsies!

LOVED my hair and makeup. LOVED. We did a trial, and after reflecting on it, there were some slight changes I wanted - the day of she totally rolled with the changes and made me look so awesome! She came to me, and also did my mom's hair and two BMs. They all were different and cute, all stayed up and styled, and she did everyone's hair (including my hair and makeup) in a little over 2 hours. I all but passed out right after walking back down the aisle, so people were patting me with wet towels and such, and the makeup lasted so well even through that. I had my hair half up with the plan to bobby pin it all up after the ceremony and I highly recommend that if you plan to have your hair all or partly down. She had great prices, is friendly, and really flexible.

She made me look so beautiful and her prices are awesome! She will even travel to your venue, but we just went to her store. It made more sense for us, but if I am correct she doesnt charge anymore for travel! I had ALOT of compliments on my makeup

Salon 152

I used Salon 152 in the Northland. The owner went out of her way to make sure everything went smoothly and I didn't have to worry about a thing. I had a set of nails and a pedicure done the friday before. They both turned out great. The hair and makeup was done the day of. Everybody got to pick their hair style and every single one came out beautiful. Make up was so-so. The makeup artist did a good job, but the brand of makeup she used caked up on me something horrible. Since one of my BM's brought her own foundation her's turned out a lot better.
