Johanna Artistry 
Rating: 5.0 (21 reviews)
  • Serves Essex, MA

For over a decade I have been able to work with some of the best in the beauty industry during my time at MAC Cosmetics & as a freelance artist, which has helped me perfect my craft. 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!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment I reached out to Johanna for a wedding makeup inquiry, she was so kind and had such good energy. I found her on Instagram through other brides who had hired her and I absolutely loved her work. Booking was easy, the contract was very straight forward, and I was so excited that she was available for our wedding! She came to my house for my trial, which was so convenient. Trial makeup was beautiful but she also knew exactly what we would change up on wedding day and was very honest and open with her thoughts and with asking for my opinion, which I appreciated so much. On wedding day, it felt like she was just one of the girls, along with her amazing assistant for our 10-person service. Her vibe, energy, and genuine appreciation for getting to do our makeup was so felt. Everyone’s makeup came out so beautifully and they were all so happy! Our group ranged from mid 20-30 year olds, 50-60 year olds, and my Nana in her 80’s - which just shows how dedicated to her craft she is and how diverse her skills are. Johanna is truly incredible at what she does and I cannot recommend her enough!!

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!

Dee Marie Artistry did a wonderful job with makeup for my wedding party. Danille was prompt and professional in her communication, sending visual inspiration to make sure we were on the same page. On my wedding day, she worked magic - my daughter had suffered an injury at cheer practice and had a bad black eye, but Danille covered it flawlessly and she looked beautiful. Danille was able to accommodate my diverse wedding party, from my youngest who wanted light, natural makeup to enhance her glowing skin to my oldest who wanted a full glam look, and my mother who has mature skin. The makeup lasted perfectly all day and photographed beautifully. Danille is extremely talented and I would highly recommend Dee Marie Artistry for your special event!

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!

Shelby was amazing to work with!! I did a trial before booking and fell in love. Closer to my wedding date, I did a second trial to finalize all the little details and it was spot on! Everything I pictured my look to be, exactly like the inspiration pics I shared with her!! Shelby was so helpful leading up to my big day, as I was deciding to add extensions. She and her team showed up on time the morning of my wedding and brought such good vibes, I would highly recommend booking with her! She made me feel beautiful on my day! And also beautiful work on all my bridesmaids and my mom!

Working with Sara was a pleasure from the very beginning, we hit it off during our consultation phone call and it was like I had known her for years immediately. Her expertise in makeup application is rivaled by her expertise in people management, and she’s able to match energy as well as she matches shades. When my initial hairstylist that I booked fell through, Sara went above and beyond to help me find someone else available on my day, without having to compromise on a stylist who had lots of experience with what I wanted. Sara is the ultimate hype woman, literally every step of the way she made me feel gorgeous and radiant, all while simply highlighting my features, rather than hiding me behind a million layers of makeup. She was able to achieve my “anti-bride” look flawlessly and the morning of my wedding she was my calm rock in an anxious storm. The makeup itself stayed put all day and evening, despite crying and lots of dancing, and felt like I was wearing absolutely no makeup at all! Sara is such a special human being who is amazing at what she does, you’d be a silly goober not to book her for your wedding!

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
