    Paolina is great!

    I loved working with Paolina to put together my glamorous wedding look! We did a trial beforehand, where we talked through what I liked. Paolina took time to understand my preferences and offered input to help guide my decision making.
    She is a very responsive to email and calls -- a huge help for a busy bride. I highly recommend working with her.

    The only person I would ever have do my hair and makeup!

    I contacted Paolina for a wedding trial and for the day of hair and makeup; I have never had a professional stylist for an event before and went by reviews and google searches. I was concerned by just never having had someone else do a look for me, and I wanted a very natural look. Paolina very much delivered --- she was so professional, on time, personable, and exactly what I wanted. Also a very good price and value. My look was perfect and I can truly say every single person at the wedding complimented me on my hair and makeup. If I have any kind of formal event to attend, I will always request Paolina! She also recommended some products to use for the wedding and chose a great lip color, way better than what I had envisioned. She's the best.

    Most Incredible Vendor! Absolutely Love Her!

    Paolina was truly such a blessing to work with! She stepped in last minute and made my wedding hair dreams come true after I had an absolute nightmare situation with another hair designer. It worked out perfectly though because she was absolutely incredible! My hair turned out better than I could have ever dreamed and I loved spending the morning of my wedding with her! Would hire OVER and OVER again! She's perfection

    Fairytale wedding hair

    Paolina made me feel like a princess on my wedding day!! She created a gorgeous Rapunzel style loose braid that exceeded my expectations. She also styled beautiful half up/down looks for my bridesmaids and a side up-do for my mom! Paolina made time in her busy schedule to do an additional hair trial with me so that we got the design down just right. She was so sweet and professional and I would highly recommend her to any DMV brides

    Talented, friendly, and timely

    Working with Paolina was great. She was very mindful of keeping us on schedule, even when we had to adapt. I was very happy with her hairstyling and makeup work, and with her service overall.

    Excellent Hair & Make-up Artist!

    My wedding hair & makeup trial experience with Paolina was truly fabulous. She is prompt, professional, very experienced and up on current trends/styles. She was extremely helpful in assisting me to make hair and makeup decisions that best fit me. Paolina listens carefully to what you want and is able to deliver. She also shows you her progress along the way to ensure that you are satisfied. Not only is she friendly and a pleasure to be around, but she is extremely talented and experienced. My hair and makeup held perfectly for the remainder of the day after my trial. After my experience with her, I feel very confident in her abilities and would HIGHLY recommend her to brides and bridesmaids.

    Paola is a very talented artist! She took the time to listen to what I liked and didn’t like and took every bit of feedback on all my particulars to make sure everything looked perfect. The hair and makeup was stunning and lasted all night long!

    Paolina was amazing! On my wedding day, not only was Paolina early to arrive, but she also finished hair for three bridesmaids, and my hair and makeup, with time to spare. It definitely allowed me to have some relaxed, down time on my big day. My hair and makeup was perfect, and I received many compliments. I also found that, unlike other vendors I had reached out to, Paolina was affordable. Highly recommend!

    Paolina and her team have done an amazing job with my hair and my bridesmaids’. She was very professional and patient and made sure everyone was very comfortable with their hairdo. I felt beautiful but also truly myself during our special day. I highly recommend her and her team!!

    Paolina is FANTASTIC! She is truly a visionary, creative, professional, and always keeps her clients feeling valued and (most importantly) gorgeous. I've been a client for years, constantly receive compliments on my hair color and style, and have referred several friends her way. Her services for my wedding were outstanding, and put my mind at ease about how I would appear in my photos.
