  • Serves Essex, MA

Homeblown Lux was established to bring blowout and makeup artistry to our clients who preferred the comfort of their own homes versus the chaos of the busy salon. As our clients started to spread the word, we quickly discovered the demand for the same, but for weddings! We have established a professional and experienced team of artists who share a profound passion for client satisfaction and creativity. We have seen brides and newlyweds from all ethnicities and cultures, and pride ourselves on the relationships we’ve built over the course of our business.

Awarded Best of Zola
“The team at Homeblown Lux was an absolute dream to work with! From start to finish, they went above and beyond to make me feel cared for and confident. I first found them through Zola and was immediately relieved that they offered bride-only hair services—something surprisingly rare, since most vendors required large group minimums. Their pricing was also refreshingly clear and straightforward: one simple rate with gratuity included, no hidden fees, no runaround. After calling multiple local salons and getting nothing but vague “it depends” answers, the transparency from Homeblown Lux was such a breath of fresh air and gave me instant peace of mind. What meant the most, though, was that even though I wasn’t booking a big bridal party package, I was treated like the most important client in the world. That kind of genuine care is rare, and it stood out immediately. When it came to my trial, I’ll admit I felt a little uncertain. I had chosen a half-up, half-down style I wasn’t used to seeing on myself, and the curls didn’t hold as long as I hoped. But that’s exactly why trials are so valuable—I realized I wanted a completely different look. What truly impressed me was how Homeblown Lux handled my concerns. Jenny, the owner, personally called me back and took the time to really listen. She was warm, thoughtful, and reassuring, and she worked with me to come up with the perfect solution: glamorous Hollywood waves, worn fully down. From there, the communication was phenomenal. My stylist, Jeffrey, reached out right away to walk me through the plan. He asked detailed questions, encouraged me to send inspiration photos, and explained different options (like extensions) without any pressure. I ended up getting extensions, and Jeffrey even recommended affordable ones from Amazon that worked beautifully. Both he and Jenny checked in along the way, and I always felt completely supported. The weekend of the wedding, I had also booked a blowout but realized at the last minute the timing wouldn’t work. Jenny instantly pivoted, arranging for a stylist to come onsite with less than a day’s notice. Cheressa showed up cheerful and professional, fully briefed by Jeffrey so she could prep my hair perfectly for the next day. Again—I felt so well taken care of. And then, the wedding day itself. Jeffrey was everything you’d hope for in a wedding stylist: punctual, calm, and reassuring. He worked seamlessly alongside my makeup artist, created a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere (I even wrote my vows while in his chair!), and styled my hair with absolute artistry. The final look was stunning—elegant waves that held beautifully from morning until the very end of the night. I received endless compliments and truly felt like the best version of myself. If you’re searching for wedding beauty services, look no further than Homeblown Lux. Their combination of talent, professionalism, and genuine care is unmatched. I only wish I lived closer so I could see them regularly—because this team is simply the best!”

“One of the best decisions I made for my wedding day was signing JW Artistry! I’m so pleased I had Erica, Jessica, and Marissa do my hair and make up as well as my five bridesmaids, mom, and godmother. I’m not one that wears makeup often and my skin is very sensitive, but Jessica did an incredible job making sure I was comfortable, the makeup was not heavy, and the look was exactly what I was going for. She was also extremely meticulous and accommodating during my trial! Jessica is clearly very talented, and knows exactly what she’s doing. I loved my makeup for the wedding day! It looked so natural, but enhanced my features perfectly. Now in terms of Janna and Angela, I am so grateful to both of them and how organized and responsible they are with running their business. They were so communicative, gave me updates, answered all my questions, and showed a lot of integrity throughout the whole process to make sure that I was feeling confident about my artists, my timeline, and my experience. Truly so professional and trustworthy. And finally, Erica, who was hands down one of the shining stars of my entire wedding day. I’m still in disbelief with Erica‘s devotion to my group. She really went above and beyond on the day. From keeping our flower girl busy and making sure she doesn’t touch the tools to helping my mom find her lost phone to staying till the very last minute to make sure I didn’t need any additional touchups to walk me through every step of her doing my hair to literally spending several minutes with a single individual hair and making sure it wasn’t in the way…I could not be more grateful. My jaw literally dropped when she showed me the picture of the back of my hairstyle. She also saved the day when I got a floral piece for my mother that had a white ribbon that needed to be concealed and Erica masterfully covered it up so that mom did end up wearing it on the day. My girls loved their hair and makeup too. The artists did fantastic with mature skin. And guests were stunned with how gorgeous everyone looked. I know a thing or two about makeup and Jessica is very much in the know about certain products, techniques, and trendy looks. From hydrogrip primers to ABH palettes, she knows her stuff. Also, one of my bridesmaids is a hair dresser and she was also very impressed. In fact, one bridesmaid had really short hair and Marissa nailed it somehow! Working with the length and creating a gorgeous look. She also pulled out that Fenty bronzer because she ain’t playinnn. Every artist was on time, professional, ready to go with plenty of high-quality tools and products. So grateful for this team!”

Not only as a Makeup Artist, but also as a licensed Esthetician- making women feel beautiful in the skin they are in, especially for their big day, has always been my top priority!

“Johanna is THE BEST. I first discovered her when she did my best friend’s makeup for her wedding. Everyone’s makeup was absolutely beautiful and lasted all night. I knew I had to hire her for mine when the time came and I AM SO GLAD I DID. Our trial was perfection. She took the time to look at my inspo and ask me questions about what I liked about them and what I was wanting the most from each. She perfectly executed what I wanted. She also did my bridal shower makeup and it was perfection. I got SO many compliments! Day of the wedding, I made a few slight changes to what I wanted and Johanna was more than happy to do so and did it FLAWLESSLY. I cried. We all cried. I never felt more beautiful. It truly, truly took my breath away. She is such a real, honest, and genuine person. I can’t recommend her enough!!!”

“Being able to have Antonia do my make up was easy and so comfortable. I wasn't prepared with any of my own make up and being a Black Woman I was worried there wouldn't be the right colors. Antonia blended up some foundation and got an exact color match! I also HATE false lashes, BUT she put them on with such ease I couldn't even tell I was wearing them! Professionalism was glamorous just like my make up! Highly recommend and would book again! 100/10”

“Gretchen was absolutely amazing! My bridesmaids all wanted different styles, from full updos to mostly down, and she did all of our hair flawlessly and with time to spare. My wedding was outdoors in the summer, and not a single hair was out of place by the end of the day. She was professional, kind, thoughtful, and it was very clear that she loves what she does. My hair has truly never looked better than it did in my wedding day. I absolutely recommend her!”

“I got married on 10/18/2025 and hired Beauty Boston for hair and makeup. I found Beauty Boston on The Knot and was drawn in by the volume of positive reviews for the company. I utilized the online inquiry form to reach out, and Marissa responded right away with pricing information and availability. I appreciated that I was able to do a trial before committing to booking anything and loved that the company offered both makeup and hair options. I was assigned Andi as a make up artist and Jordan as a hair stylist. I had my trial with Andi, and she did a fantastic job. She listened to what I truly wanted and was very adaptable when I requested small tweaks. She kept track of all the products she used and all of my requests really well because she replicated the look perfectly 9 months later on my wedding day. While I had a lifelong friend do my own hair for my wedding, Jordan did hair for my 4 bridesmaids, my mother, and my mother-in-law. All of their styles came out beautiful and lasted the whole night (my sister even wore her look to brunch the next day and it still looked amazing)! During the planning process, Marissa was extremely helpful in coordinating timelines and pricing. I loved that the artists were able to come on site to the hotel where we got ready and they even brought their own chairs for us to use. On the wedding day, both Andi and Jordan were extremely punctual and kind. They really both did a fantastic job and kept us on schedule. We even had time at the end for two bridesmaids who had not requested make up to get lashes put on for a small fee at the last second. I truly could not have picked a better company for my wedding beauty and am so grateful to Andi and Jordan for making me and my bridal party look so good on my big day!”
