Loved the Wedding Hair & Makeup

My bridal party and I used Lou Stevens Glam Squad and had Jenna do our hair and makeup on the wedding day. We had a great experience and all received so many compliments! Jenna knew how to make my very specific ask happen! Lou worked with me on many instances, included when we had to postpone our date and was very accommodating! (Photographer: Carbone Photo Co. LLC)

I cannot recommend enough!!

We had the BEST experience with members of Lou’s team. There was a change of artists before the day due to sickness so i was nervous about having someone different than my trial but I can honestly say I would have been SO happy with any of her team members. We had 3 artists doing hair and make up for me and my girls and everyone looked fantastic. I have truly never felt more beautiful.

Excellent service!

My mom, sister, and I had our hair and make-up done by Josette (a member of Lou Stevens' fabulous glam squad). We don't typically wear a lot of makeup so we were very afraid we might not look like ourselves. Josette made us feel so comfortable and really, really listened to us. I did a trial with her a few weeks before the wedding day. She came to my parents house (where we got ready on wedding day) which was so great because she could see the space and how we would actually prepare on the day of. I cannot reiterate enough times what a great LISTENER she was! She truly wanted to do everything she could to make my vision a realty. She took criticism so well (of which I had very little) and had lots of great ideas for parts of the process in which I had no clear idea of what I wanted. On the morning, she was so calm and relaxed. Josette is awesome!!! Highly recommend.
