Michelle helped me out after my previous hair for my wedding cancelled on me fairly close to my wedding day! I had a large wedding party and she was flexible in working with another hair stylist on site to make sure all my girls looked and felt beautiful! Everyone LOVED their hair. Some even didn't know what they wanted and she gave great recommendations based on their hair. She went above and beyond when a couple of my girls who has their hair done by someone else off site didn’t love their hair, so she last minute helped them out and fixed it so they were happy with their hair! Cannot recommend Michelle enough!

Proud Mama of 3 and a beauty coach. My love for animals and all things outdoors stems from my upbringing on a farm outside of Ankeny. I graduated from North Polk High School and went on to pursue a degree in Biotechnology. However, my love for hair and all things beauty wound me up at Iowa School of Beauty in 2002! I have had the opportunity to work at two amazing salons over my career. Through them I realized I can have it all by balancing time with family, work, and travel.

Awarded Best of Zola
SLT was such an amazing part of my wedding day! I was originally supposed to get married in May and we scheduled my trial for January. Karly and Sarah both blew me away with their natural talent and ability to turn my vision into reality! They both exceeded my expectations and allowed me to feel so comfortable and relaxed on my wedding day because of how much confidence I had after my trial. I also have learned that the way Sarah schedules trials well in advance is so helpful because I do know other brides who have gotten trials closer to the wedding and they feel anxious so looking back I'm so happy she did it that way! Sarah also communicated super well and was so flexible and helpful with rebooking! She brought so much positive energy on my wedding day and made all my bridesmaids feel their best too! After my wedding a few of my bridesmaids even decided to book with her!

Henna by Heather

Boston, MA
  • Team of 6
  • Serves Des Moines, IA for additional fees

I love creating beautiful, custom wedding henna! From intricate, elaborate bridal mehndi designs to speedy, satisfying designs for guests, I love it all. I have studied Indian, North African, and Middle Eastern henna design in depth, and am happy to create designs in a broad range of strictly traditional styles, or to combine traditional patterns with more individualized, unique elements for a customized henna experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
I'd first met Heather at a Rhode Island PrideFest, and instantly saw how much talent she had. Every piece she did looked amazing, her precision was immaculate. I went to her several times over the years, and when my now wife and I began planning our wedding, I brought up the idea of having wedding henna done. My wife agreed, and I knew immediately that I needed to contact Heather. We met up with her at a nearby farm where she was holding a henna event, and she sat with us discussing what we would like done for the wedding for probably a half-hour or so. She sketched design ideas out, which we loved, and made a contract right then and there. Our wedding henna was stunning. We received so many compliments on it that night, and repeatedly after as it lasted beautifully for quite some time. We still get comments if someone sees wedding photos. Throughout the entire process, Heather was a dream to work with. Very kind and professional, she is exactly the caring presence a stressed bride-to-be needs.

I founded Sexy Visage in 2013 after years of styling my friends & family for pageants, weddings, proms & formals. I noticed that it wasn't a lot of women who looked like me, that was providing beauty services in Nebraska & Iowa. So I came up with the idea of Sexy Visage. Sexy Visage was also created as a safe space for all women, no matter the shape, size, race or sexual orientation. We have a judgment free zone and we maintain that by being compassionate and understanding. My main focus for my business is Self Love & Self Care.

Salon De’Bleu

North Liberty, IA
  • Starts at $95
  • Serves Des Moines, IA

A professional salon owner & stylist for 11 years, I have used hair as my canvas, bringing a distinctive aesthetic & fresh approach to draw out each client’s unique beauty. Hair is my art & I love the process of transforming someone from start to finish.I understood from an early age that hair is not just an accessory; that great hair is the key to feeling beautiful. Mastering skills in wedding styling, It’s my personal goal to continue to grow & excel in my craft and to ultimately share with my clients all I've learned & can achieve for them. I love hair & feel incredibly blessed that I’ve found a career that resonates with me so perfectly.

Solon De'Bleu's Brittany provided hair services for my wedding in June, 2016. She did an amazing job - doing my hair AND my 6 bridesmaid's hair by herself the morning of our wedding. Everyone looked fabulous and she gave everyone the unique style that they asked for. It was a 90 degree day, with no air-conditioning and our hair held all day. Brittany took away so much stress for me on the big day by being so easy to work with and professional.
