    Perfect hair and makeup for my big day

    Abby is fantastic. Not only did she do an amazing job with my hair and makeup (as well as my bridesmaids and moms) she is the sweetest, most thoughtful woman. She called me the day before my wedding to ask if I needed anything. And she set my makeup so it didn’t run despite all my happy tears. Book her now, you will not regret it.

    Abby is the best

    Abby did a phenomenal job with my wedding hair. She was able to give me a vintage-inspired style that fit so well with the overall vibe of my wedding. I highly recommend her for special occasion hairstyles!

    10/10 Would Recommend!

    Abby was excellent! Due to COVID I had to postpone my big wedding celebration, but we still got married in a small ceremony on 6/6/2020. Due to PA restrictions, my original stylist wasn’t able to do my hair that day, so I messaged Abby. She was so quick to respond and so helpful, even with short notice. My hair looked better than I thought was possible and Abby was so efficient and professional, even with the added COVID restrictions! My hair and my mom’s hair (which she also did) stayed looking fabulous all night long. I can’t recommend her enough!

    Abby and Shaun made everyone look amazing! Abby also did my hair and make-up for my engagement shoot and I had never felt more beautiful (until my wedding day that is)! Abby listened when I said I wanted to look natural, and Shaun listened when I told her I am really picky with regards to messy looking hair. They also got done very quickly on the day of, allowing my bridal party to go eat lunch and decompress slightly before the hectic part of the day began. I couldn’t be happier with the end result! Thank you Abby and Shaun!

    Abby was great to work with. She is very clear upfront about timelines, cost, and what to expect on the wedding day when you meet for your trial. We had a wonderful experience -- she came to my house, arrived 15 minutes early to set up and was ready to go with her teammate. She listened to both my concerns and to what I was going for and made it all come to fruition. I would highly reccomend her to anyone that needs great wedding day hair and makeup in the Baltimore area.

    Abby is absolutely amazing!!! She traveled an hour away from her salon, bright and early, and did makeup for 10 girls and finished with time to spare! She really made each person in my bridal party feel so special, and they were so thrilled with how beautiful their makeup turned out. Abby is so personable, fun to chat with, and has a calmness about her that truly made the day feel stress-free. She has such talent. Although I only used her for makeup (because I have been very loyal to my hairdresser for many years) I have heard she does beautiful hair as well! I would highly recommend Abby to anyone looking for an amazing beauty experience!!

    My bridal party and I were so extremely happy with Abby and Shaun at our wedding. Both of them were so kind and fun to be around, and did an amazing job on everyone. They were able to do specific requested hairdos, or just come up with something beautiful on the spot for those that were not sure of what they wanted. We were very impressed how quick they were, without forfeiting quality. There were 10 ladies getting hair done, and I (the bride) got my makeup done, and the entire process only took a couple of hours leaving us plenty of time to just relax and have fun the rest of the day before the wedding. Everyone was extremely pleased with how their hair turned out and I was equally pleased with my makeup - I could not have imagined it any more perfect! Abby was also one of the less expensive options, however I do not know why anyone would pay any more - they can do it all! Abby de Rosset Hair & Makeup come highly recommended by my entire bridal party!

    Abby is literally so awesome! My hair and makeup trial 3 months before the wedding went so well I showed her just a few pictures on Pinterest and she nailed it on the first try exactly what I wanted. I bought a hair piece after the trial that she incorporated the day of the wedding no issues at all she was able to work it in beautifully. I told her that I planned on dancing most of the night away and wanted to make sure my hair and makeup would hold up, she assured me it would and she was so right it lasted through it all! Abby took my vision and few comments that I gave and made me look and feel stunning! I absolutely loved how everything turned out and my photos prove it! I highly recommend you use Abby for you and your bridal party's hair and make up, she is so professional and good at what she does she has serious talent - you will not be disappointed! Also her assistant Shawn did a fabulous job on my bridesmaids hair as well! Everyone looked amazing and I can't thank them enough for helping make my day perfect!

    Abby did an amazing job on my hair and makeup for my wedding. Everything turned out beautiful! I didn't even have to really give a lot of detail as to what I wanted, she was able to vision it on me and went with it when I went in for my trial. I loved everything about my hair! The head piece was not exactly comfortable on my head (it is hard for me to wear headbands so, I figured on my wedding day is when I would try to wear one for 8 hours). At the last minute I purchased something else with the fear of my head pounding and Abby was able to use it in my hair just like the other one! It was even more beautiful!!!! The makeup was spectacular also and not once did I smudge or run, even after all of the tears of joy and the hugs and kisses from everyone! I wouldn't change anything if I could and I was so lucky to have Abby there to make me look like the princess I envisioned.

    Abby recently did all of the hair and makeup for my wedding on July 28th. She was so personable, and so easy to work with. Everyone's hair and makeup turned out beautifully, and stayed looking nice all night long. Abby checked in with me several times before the wedding to make sure she had all of the correct details, and she allowed for plenty of time on my wedding day to get everyone's hair and makeup done, as well as touch everyone up before she left. I recommend her to anyone looking to get hair and makeup done on their wedding day!

    Abby did a great job with the hair and makeup for me and my mom! During my consultation she looked at the pictures I brought in and created a style that worked with my hair length and fine texture. The makeup (her own line) was amazing and my skin looked so fresh and my eyes popped.

    Abby kept me calm as she did my hair and makeup for the wedding and it turned out great! I highly recommend her for your wedding.

    Abby did an absolutely lovely job on hair and makeup for myself and my bridesmaids. She was easy to work with, fun to chat with, helpful, professional, and on-time. She did beautiful work and was able to match all of our personalities while creating a cohesive look. She offered a trial for the bride and provided great advice and tips for us. I would highly recommend her to any bride looking for a stress-free and fun hair and makeup experience!

    Abby styled hair for my sister's wedding in June 2010, and we loved her so much, I asked her to style hair for my October wedding. She arrived bright and early and had myself, my mother, and my four bridesmaids finished right on time.

    Planning my wedding from a few hours away, Abby was flexible when planning my trial. I brought in a photo of what I wanted and she executed it flawlessly.

    On the day of, each girl had a unique idea for her do. Abby was able to make each girl happy with their unique style, while adding cohesiveness to the party as a whole.

    We considered her a part of the family while we were getting ready on the wedding day. Her presence was a blessing and a delight. She made the wedding day completely stress free, and of course, made each of us look and feel beautiful.

    Abby was just fantastic! My hair looked exactly like I wanted it to, and the curls held ALL night long. My mom's hair looked amazing, too. People couldn't stop commenting on it - they said they've never seen it look better. Abby even left her a sample of the product she used.

    Abby did my hair for my wedding back in Sept. 2010. She did an amazing job and went above and beyond my expectations. I was really unsure about what I wanted to do with my hair and she offered to meet with me to do a consultation/trial. I showed her some pictures of some styles I liked and she came up with the perfect blend of the two styles and really made it unique and beautiful! She was very down to earth and made me feel like she was more of a friend than a vendor. It was great having her there to spend time with me and my bridesmaids on the wedding day as well. She did hair for me, 3 bridesmaids, and my mom and had us all ready in a short time. I highly recommend her!

    Abby was truly amazing and made the day leading up to the wedding very special. I first met Abby for my trial and it was evident that she was going to do a fantastic job on my hair for my wedding. She traveled to the hotel right down the road from the venue and not only did she do a beautiful job on my hair and my four bridesmaids hair, but also both my mother and mother in law’s hair. My wedding was at the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club on the Eastern Shore, and with Ocean City Traffic as a concern plus seven people’s hair to do, she arrived early with plenty of time to get all of us done. As the bride, I was her first concern, and she made sure that my hair stood out from the rest of the bridal party. The entire day leading up to the wedding was relaxing and a lot of fun. The conversations and many laughs we shared made the day even more perfect. My husband was speechless and did shed a few tears as he saw me walking down the aisle. He could not stop commenting on how gorgeous I looked, and I owe a big part of that to Hair Design by Abby. Abby is truly a beautiful person as well as a very talented hair stylist.

    I was referred to Abby by my florist, Linda, and truly can't say enough great things about her. I know from speaking with her that Abby does hair, but I only ended up using her services the day of my wedding for makeup as I have a hair stylist I am quite loyal to. Abby brought me in for a trial a couple months before my wedding and after chatting with me about what look I was going for and my comfort level, we came up with a really great look I was truly thrilled with. The day of the wedding, she came bright and early and proceeded over the next few hours to apply makeup for my mother, 5 bridesmaids, and myself. Every single person has a slightly different, customized look that made them look and most importantly feel beautiful. She gave us the option that day to use airbursh foundation and I can't wait to see the photos and how flawless it makes us all look! We all were given so many compliments throughout the day and some of my bridesmaids who are makeup obsessed and I was a little worried about even kept Abby longer to ask questions about everyday application tricks, etc. I would recommend Abby without hesitation to anyone who wants to look beautiful on their wedding day.

    Shaun (hair stylists) and Jenna (make-up) made my bridal party look amazing for the big day! They were very professional, on time and traveled to our wedding site.

    We had some miscommunication with booking and signing our contract at first, but in the end I was extremely happy with their services and would recommend for any future bride.
