    Dedra is the best.

    About 2 months before my wedding, I stressed over my previous hair + makeup situation and rebooked EVERYTHING. Dedra was SO nice, responsive, and flexible to fit me (and my 6 bridesmaids) into her schedule and get me looking as perfect as can be on my wedding day. I got so many compliments of how beautiful of a bride I was, and a lot of that was Dedra. I am so so happy with how my hair and makeup turned out.... Dedra you're the best!!

    Professional & experienced, You are in good hands!

    Dedra and an assistant did hair and makeup for my wedding, which involved 3 mothers, 3 bridesmaids, 3 extra lashes for friends, and, of course, me, the bride!
    I connected with Dedra because of her naturally beautiful aesthetic portfolio, her experience, and her professionalism. I highly recommend doing a test with any makeup artist before you hire them and that is what sealed the deal for me with Dedra. She really knows what she is doing and gave me good feedback and advice. She also made me and my family/wedding party feel extremely comfortable.
    Dedra knows how to bring out and enhance your beauty. She doesn't cake on makeup, I felt like myself, only stunning and camera ready.
    Oh, did I mention it was also the HOTTEST day of 2022, going over 99 degrees in Hood Canal where our event was? My makeup lasted all day and night, with no need for touch-ups.
    I would highly recommend working with Dedra!

    She listened to exactly what I wanted!

    I am so happy I got my hair and makeup done by Dedra for my wedding. The quality of her services are incredible and her pricing is so fair! She was patient with me when I changed the style I wanted to go for and helped me find the perfect look for my big day! She’s so easy to talk with and a lovely person! Highly recommend.

    There are no words to accurately describe how awesome she is!!

    Dedra and her team were nothing short of perfect. I am so grateful to have been connected with her by my wedding planner. She has extensive experience in hair and makeup and it shows in the quality of her work. Dedra was a calming, supportive presence and made me feel very comfortable the day of the wedding. She was extremely collaborative and dedicated to achieving my hair and makeup vision. She also nailed all the bridesmaids' looks and they are all begging to have her for their future weddings! Thank you so much, Dedra, for sharing your gift!

    Best hair and makeup artist ever!

    Dedra was incredible. Hands down.
    My original artist fell through so I was frantically scrambling looking for someone. After inquiring all over I finally found Dedra. And even better she was already on Vashon island (where my venue was) and just had a cancellation on my day! It was meant to be.
    She was so responsive and happy to answer all of my questions. She made me feel special and taken care of from the moment I made contact with her.
    I definitely recommend doing a trial because we were able to not only figure out my hair and makeup, but we got to know each other a bit and it really made things so much better. I felt like I was able to make changes and she was more than happy to make any changes that I wanted. She truly puts the client first.
    On the day of the wedding I wasn’t feeling great, but she was still able to make me feel like a bride getting ready. She talked me through my anxieties and took my mind off of everything going on at the venue. I was able to focus on myself and my bridesmaids, and it was amazing!
    I was so so so unbelievably happy with my hair and makeup and it lasted all day! Even in the sun, I felt like my makeup wasn’t moving at all. And my hair still looked fantastic at the end of the night.
    Dedra is amazing and will look after you! I definitely recommend her!
    Thank you for everything Dedra!!

    Exceptional and stress free!

    Dedra was the perfect choice for my beauty needs for my wedding. She is a truly a master at her craft and gave me exactly the look I was describing to her. I brought her a few pictures and she made my vision come to life. I felt so beautiful both after my trial and of course on my wedding day. She is easy going and has a calm demeanor, which eased my pre wedding jitters. Honestly, she could charge more for the quality of her work, but I was happy with her prices! I will definitely be recommending her to friends!

    Dedra is a dream come true!

    Dedra is an amazing artist! Not only did she do an incredible job on our hair and makeup, but she also braved the snow to make it to our wedding. All to ensure that me/my daughter felt beautiful on my special day, I highly recommend Dedra!

    Pleasant experience on my wedding day

    Deedra was a calming force when she did my hair and makeup for my wedding day. We did not do a consultation however it was clear her experience and eye would give me my best look for the big day. My hair and makeup held up the entire day and I wouldn't have changed a thing.

    Perfect hair and makeup!

    My six bridesmaids, both moms, and I all had our hair and makeup done by Dedra on our wedding day. She did an incredible job - everyone looked classy and fantastic! I don't wear a lot of makeup normally so I wanted a natural look for the wedding, and Dedra put just the right amount on to make me feel both fancy and still extremely comfortable. She also did an incredible fishtail braid and used custom clips I brought for myself and all my bridesmaids. Dedra was really calm and efficient the day of the wedding. I would recommend her to anyone in the Seattle area!!

    Talented hair and makeup artist -- everything looked amazing!

    I am so glad that I found Dedra! I cannot recommend her highly enough. I had no idea what I wanted and everything we tried out looked great. I loved the way she did both my hair and makeup. She's very sweet and easy to work with. She's incredibly talented and good at curly/textured hair. She made a big part of my wedding day stress-free and I cannot recommend her highly enough!!

    Stunning Wavy Wedding Hair

    Dedra created a gorgeous wavy updo for my wedding, and I have been thrilled to see it in every photo. She was calming to be around in the middle of a bustling wedding day, and paid attention to detail in the way that I do. The hairdo lasted beautifully through our long reception at the windy beach.

    A true artist!

    Finding Dedra to take care of my wedding party and I was truly an unforgettable experience. From the beginning she took all my visions to heart and made it happen. During the months leading up to my wedding I never worried and always felt comfortable being able to communicate with her and send her different ideas if I changed my mind along the way. Everything on my wedding day went exactly how she said it would! She was easy to communicate with and really takes care of you from start to finish. I highly recommend her!

    Exceptional!

    Dedra and her team did hair and make-up at my wedding for myself, 5 attendants and 3 moms. Dedra is an exceptional make-up artist and hair stylist, and a wonderful person. I loved my hair and make-up and would highly recommend Dedra.

    From the moment I met her, Dedra felt like family to me. I'm so grateful we connected and that her soothing and professional presence was part of our big day. I'm very easily stressed, but Dedra reassured me that everything would be OK. The best part is that the makeup lasted all day through a VERY hot summer wedding without a/c. Very impressive. Thank you Dedra!

    I had a wonderful experience working with Dedra, who did hair and makeup for my wedding for me, my mom, and my sister.

    I had very little idea about what I wanted to do, and Dedra spent a ton of time with me at my trial run, talking to me about the different options. She is very knowledgeable about hair and makeup trends, and was able to manage theee different hairstyles for three opiniontated ladies with VERY different hair textures and lengths. My husband was emphatic that I don't look like I have a bunch of make up on and that I look like myself at the wedding. Dedra delivered. She accentuated my features without caking on the makeup.

    Dedra is also a lovely person with a great sense of humor. We had a wonderful time with her. I recommend her without reservation, and I hope to hire her again!

    Dedra did my hair and makeup for my wedding and I could not have been happier. She was very easy to communicate with and took the time to understand what look I wanted. She suggested I make a Pinterest board to share with her, which was very helpful. I did a makeup trial, which she recommended, which was worth the money because it helped us be even more on ththe r same page. She came all the way from Vashon to my apartment in Seattle for the consult. On my wedding day, I had two monster zits but Dedra soothed my skin and covered them well. With hair extensions and hair combs that I wanted to wear, Dedra created a soft and romantic updo that was exactly what I wanted. I have never looked or felt as beautiful as I did on my wedding day, thanks to Dedra. She and her assistant also did a gorgeous job with hair and makeup for my mom, mother in law, and sisters. Dedra is so professional and highly skilled; she's also super friendly and easy going. She is a great deal for the quality of work she does. I paid a similar amount for a very amateur makeup artist in CT for my sisters wedding who did a very poor job in comparison.

    I highly recommend Dedra to anyone and would hire her again without hesitation!

    Dedra was wonderful to work with. She was very friendly and professional. I appreciate that she listened to my requests then worked with me to make my vision even more beautiful. My hair turned out great and lasted the entire night. All my friends and family loved how my hair turned out. I couldn't have been happier.

    I looked at hundreds of hair/makeup vendors before I found Dedra's site. I was immediately drawn to the classic, elegant style portrayed in the photos. I used Dedra for for my 6/4/16 wedding and she exceeded my expectations. Dedra is not only exceptionally talented artist, she has a kind, calming disposition about her. I also enjoyed talking with her and listening to her great Cuban music. So many parts of the wedding planning process were stressful, so this was a breath of fresh air. We had lots of visitors that popped into the hotel while I was getting ready. Dedra was great with the guests and didn't get distracted by them. Dedra did hair and makeup for myself and my two bridesmaids. Everyone commented on how great we looked. I'm 38. My skin looked beautiful and smooth, my hair looked shiny and classy and I loved how the eye colors made my eyes really green. I am beyond grateful to Dedra for being part of my big day!

    Dedra is a top notch professional with the highest quality skill set! She was able to accommodate our party with very short notice, was extremely responsive, and an absolute doll to work with....we didn't want her to leave! Look no further for your hair and makeup needs!

    Dedra/DD did my makeup for my wedding, and I could not be happier! Three months after the wedding I am still getting comments on how fantastic my makeup looked.

    What I really love about DD's style is that everything she does makes you look like YOU. I kept seeing pictures of brides with really heavy makeup - the "drag queen" look - and that's exactly what I didn't want. She listened to what I wanted, made some suggestions, and ultimately made me look both glamorous and natural. The makeup totally fit with my 1920s style dress. DD also fit right in with my wedding crew, and it was great having her there to help me get ready.

    DD is a professional with decades of experience. She has done major ad campaigns, was a makeup artist for celebrities in LA, and we are so lucky to have her up in the Northwest.

    Thanks, DD!
