Glam By Jojo was an absolute pleasure to work with on our wedding day. Jojo arrived right on time and immediately got to work helping me, my two bridesmaids, and our mothers get ready with beautiful hair and makeup. Jojo has a very calming presence and made the process feel personal and thoughtful, ensuring we all looked and felt our absolute best. The final looks were stunning - elegant yet modern, and perfectly complemented our wedding attire.

Hi! My name is Danny, and I am a professional makeup artist with over 15 years of experience in the industry. I have a passion for creating beautiful and unique looks, and I have honed my craft in various areas, including bridal, editorial, and New York Fashion Week.

Whether it's for a classic bridal look or a bold and avant-garde editorial spread, I have the expertise to make it happen.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the first time I talked to Danny on the phone to inquire about using fine line artistry, I was absolutely sure he would do an excellent job on my wedding day. Danny is so kind, attentive to detail, helpful, and a pleasure to be around. My trial was so smooth and easy, and he nailed the exact look I wanted with very vague inspiration description from me, because I know absolutely nothing about make up. He managed to find the exact color lipstick I have been searching for forever, so not only a win for my wedding, but a win for my lipstick collection too! On the day of the wedding Danny and his assistant were incredible! They showed up early and took care of everyone extremely well. Everyone was so happy with how they looked, even my girls with very particular make up tastes. They worked extremely efficiently and were very well coordinated with our hair stylist. Danny handled the entire schedule including that for hair, even though I did not use one of the stylists from fine line artistry. He was super organized and on top of everything. I cannot recommend fine line artistry enough!! I keep joking I’ll never have my make up look that good again (unless of course I hire Danny!!!) - if you get the chance to work with fine line artistry, do not pass it up! I included pics from my trial, the girls after getting ready, right before the ceremony, and a late night photo booth pic of me and the MoH.

Homeblown Lux 
Rating: 5.0 (8 reviews)
  • 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!

Sarah’s a fantastic hair stylist. I am soooo grateful I was able to book her for my wedding. Shes easy going, diligent and efficient. Shes super easy to chat with, but she’s quiet if you’re not the chatty type. My hair was immaculate, and all the girls in my bridal party and the moms looked fantastic; everyone loved their hair. Most importantly, all of us had our hairstyle stay in place through the end of the night. On top of the service itself, I was so happy with the process from before the hair trial through the wedding day. Sarah made everything easy for me to manage (and by that, she managed it, I just looked it over) and made sure I was comfortable and happy with everything along the way.

Thank you so much, Kelsey and Erica for beautifying me and my wedding party! I was on the fence about getting hair and makeup done professionally, and I'm glad I went for it! Kelsey did an amazing job setting me up for success during our trial, taking my "natural look" inspiration photos and translating them for my skin tone. We made some tweaks to my day of look and it turned out better than I could have imagined! Erica did a great job with everyone's hair, and the vibe Kelsey and Erica brought was wonderful and relaxing.

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!
