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.

Beauty Boston was an absolute 10/10 for our wedding day! From the very beginning, their team was professional, organized, inclusive and incredibly talented. Marissa was ON IT with any question we had and kept us so organized! We had four different artists, Kim, Tiffany, Marissa and Regina, working with our bridal party, and every single person looked and felt amazing. The hair and makeup design for both of us brides was everything we could have hoped for—elegant, long-lasting, and perfectly tailored to our individual styles. The artists truly listened to what we wanted and enhanced our natural features while making us feel like the best versions of ourselves. Our bridesmaids were equally thrilled with their looks, and even our flower girls felt so special and included. Each hairstyle and makeup application felt personalized, and the artists did a fantastic job working with different preferences, hair types, skin tones, and ages. Everyone looked beautiful, felt confident, and photographed flawlessly throughout the entire day. Beyond their incredible talent, the team brought such a calming, positive energy to the getting-ready process. They kept everything running smoothly, stayed on schedule, and helped make the morning fun, relaxed, and stress-free. They were wonderful with our flower girls, making them feel comfortable and excited while creating age-appropriate looks that were absolutely adorable. We received countless compliments on our hair and makeup, and we could not be happier with our experience. Beauty Boston played such an important role in making our wedding day feel special, and we would wholeheartedly recommend them to any bride looking for a talented, professional, and truly exceptional beauty team.

Liesel and her team were amazing from the initial contact. Liesel is easy to communicate with very timely.

Both were respectful, aware of time, caring and honestly made the whole experience much better. If you are looking to work with a caring and kind stylist that can provide amazing hair and makeup looks for all hair types TVB is your team. I have thick frizzy hair and problem skin, Liesel attentively took note of these concerns during my trial. My trial hair and makeup withheld through a nap and my bridal hair and makeup withheld the whole day, event, and after party. I have never felt more beautiful in my entire life and that is everything you can imagine on your wedding day. Thank you Liesel and team!

Grace is beyond amazing. My original hairstylist cancelled on me 2 weeks before my wedding and I was scrambling to find someone new. My cousin stumbled upon her instagram looking for hairstylists in Maine. I DM’d her on a whim, praying for anything. She was already fully booked for the season but felt so bad for me that she made sure she could be there on my day. Thank goodness things worked out the way they did because she exceeded our expectations. My hair never holds a curl and the hair she did for me stayed all night. We got so many compliments on our hair all night. Every persons looked perfect from when she first did it. She is not only super personable and sweet but an expert at her craft. Between her and our makeup artist, we were done an hour before we were supposed to be! Thank you Grace you are the best!

East Asian hair that always falls out of braids and buns), and Kim was able to masterfully craft a style that was both secure, voluminous, and whimsical. Can’t say enough great things about her!!

Awarded Best of Zola
Beautylynk provided exceptional service for my wedding day hair styling. Their communication was clear and consistent throughout the process. As a woman of color, I appreciated that they specialize in styling for diverse hair types. My loc hairstyle was perfect for the occasion - it looked beautiful and stayed in place all night without any bobby pins. The quiet, attentive service and attention to detail really contributed to making my wedding day look and feel special. I highly recommend Beautylynk for any bride seeking a skilled, professional hair stylist who can deliver a flawless look.

My hair turned out absolutely beautifully, and it stayed in place all night! My sister-in-law was raving about her hair all day!
