KC Artistry was an absolute dream to work with for my wedding day! From the start, Krystal and her team were fast, communicative, and incredibly friendly. As the bride, the hair and makeup they did for me brought me to literal tears - I have never felt so beautiful and confident. Krystal and her team of incredibly talented hair stylists and makeup artists were a joy to have in the bridal suite. They handled my huge bridal party of 10 with such efficiency and ease. All of my bridesmaids and my mom loved their hair and makeup looks. Everyone looked stunning. Krystal was so amazing to work with and if I had to do it all over again, I would 100% use KC Artistry. I recommend them to everyone and will use them in the future for other events.

I couldn’t have asked for a better makeup artist than Ashley! She completely got me bringing to life exactly what I was hoping for, even when I couldn’t fully put it into words myself. Ashley made me feel like myself, which is truly all I wanted on my wedding day. Since I don’t really wear makeup daily, I was nervous about looking too done-up—but she struck the perfect balance. She listened, understood what I wanted (even when I couldn’t explain it perfectly), and brought it to life so naturally. I’m so thankful!

Alina was absolutely wonderful MUA and made me feel beautiful but still like myself. We ended up doing two make up trials because I changed what I was asking for and I was so happy I did. My makeup lasted all night, didn't move a bit, and looked amazing in person and in pictures. I also loved how Svetlana did my hair! I asked for my hair down but pinned back with soft curls and it lasted through a full day of very warm temperatures and held my long veil in no problem. 10/10 to both of these ladies could not recommend enough!!

My trial went so well and Wendy did an amazing job I decided right then to hire her. My makeup and hair were perfect on my wedding day, I was so happy!

Kelsea and her team were amazing to work with. I am not usually much of a makeup wearer and asked for basically a glammed up version of myself, and she really delivered! I especially appreciated that she responded well when I asked for a small adjustment – she knew what I was asking for and was able to make me look and feel my best on my wedding day. Not to mention she made my fine, uncurlable hair look beautiful! Plus, my hair and makeup lasted through a whole night of dancing, kissing, and happy tears. I would absolutely recommend Artistry by Kelsea for any person getting married and wanting to look their best.

I found Cloud & Rea here on Zola after initially deciding not to do professional hair and makeup and am so glad that I reached out to them. Claudia was very responsive throughout the process before the wedding and clearly communicated with me as far as pricing, scheduling, advice before the day of, and timelines for getting ready. I had a late morning wedding and needed to have services for 4 of us and she came through like a champ and was able to get us looking perfect for the rest of the day. 3 of us are in our 40’s and my stepmom is in her 60’s and Claudia was able to do 4 completely different looks on us, none of which looked caked on or heavy. I really appreciated that she was able to work with different skin types and facial features, making all of us feel beautiful. I did do two makeup trials due to being indecisive on what I wanted for my final look. I knew I didn’t want it too bridal with the focus on my eyes and by working through my vision with Claudia I ended up with an amazing final product the day of my wedding. The first trial also included a hair trial that I was happy with but due to a scheduling conflict we ended up having our hair done by Artistry by Kelsea.

Bianca is incredibly talented and just the best! She did the makeup for my May 2024 Indian fusion wedding (both for my wedding day and my Sangeet), and I could not have felt more beautiful. Something that was incredibly important to me when deciding on a MUA was finding an artist that is well experienced with a variety of skin tones. Bianca absolutely killed it while doing a variety of different looks. Leading up to my wedding, I went to Bianca for a few facials. The actual experience of the facial was so relaxing, and my skin was so hydrated and glowing leading up to my wedding. After my wedding, I also asked Bianca if she could do a makeup class for me. She had made me feel truly so beautiful (but still like myself). The class made makeup approachable for someone who has very limited makeup experience. She was SO thorough afterwards in all the materials she sent me with instructions and products listed to be able to recreate the looks we went over. I cannot recommend Bianca enough for all of her services!!

Working with Makeup by Steph was an absolute pleasure. Her communication style is professional yet relaxed, and she was incredibly responsive throughout the entire process. The quality of her work was truly amazing - the soft glam look she created for me on my wedding day was worth every penny and lasted beautifully all night long. Steph also helped me figure out the best makeup routine for my combination skin, and even gave me a small amount of lipstick for touch-ups, which came in so handy! She was extremely nice and answered all of my questions with patience and expertise. The photos are from our trial, the ones taken in the bathroom were hours later after I had ran around doing wedding errands and ate!

Carla Pressley - Hair Stylist & Makeup Artist 
Rating: 4.2 (5 reviews)
  • Serves Lorton, VA

I’m Carla Pressley and I do hair and makeup! I’m a mixed African American/Korean chick born the year of the DOG in July which makes me a fiercely loyal sentimental Cancer. I also talk to most dogs and have been the proud mother to two Jindo dogs. I laugh EXACTLY like my two brothers, TRY eating vegan most of the time, LOVE yoga, and tear up EVERY time dads see’s the bride for the first time.

When I was looking for a hair and makeup artist, I wanted someone who I felt confident could help me decide the look for my wedding and come up with options for my naturally curly hair. However, I knew the deciding factor would be whether I felt confident that the artist could make every member of my bridal party that was diverse (in terms of race, disability, and LGBTQ) bridal party look and feel beautiful. Carla's portfolio showed me that she really lives her values of inclusion and I booked her with full confidence after our phone consultation the day after my inquiry. She gave me different options for the schedule for either just her or her and a team. I ended up going with the option of her and her team to not start so early and have a more efficient schedule. I was right to place my trust in her and the team she works with! I did a trial a couple weeks before my wedding, which I cannot recommend highly enough. It was definitely one of the most fun experiences of the entire wedding planning process! Carla spent a few hours with me trying different looks based on my inspiration photos and the vibe of my dress. I left so excited and knowing I had options I liked based on how I was feeling and the weather. On my wedding day she and her team were fantastic and executed flawlessly and made everyone comfortable on what was a hectic morning. My mother hadn't worn makeup since her wedding almost 40 years ago. My sister and maid of honor is also autistic with intellectual disabilities and had never worn makeup but wanted to be included (and look like a princess!) Carla and her team (special shoutout to makeup artist Mong!) were so patient and understanding and put them both at ease, which I appreciated so much. My other bridesmaids had a wonderful experience with makeup artist Nas as well. In terms of myself, I can say without question I've never felt more beautiful and glamorous but still myself than I did on my wedding day. Carla came with us to the church and fixed my veil that blew off during my first look and touched up everyone before we walked down the aisle. The look stayed the whole day and my hair held through the dip in our first dance into the after party. Going with Carla for hair and makeup was easily one of the best decisions I made in wedding planning and I cannot recommend her highly enough!

I cannot recommend Christy Beauty LLC and her amazing glam team enough! They did the hair and makeup for my wedding day, including services for me, my mom, my grandma, and my friends. From start to finish, they were professional, talented, and so wonderful to work with. Everyone looked absolutely beautiful, and the team made us feel comfortable, confident, and special throughout the entire process. They listened to what each person wanted and created looks that were flawless while still feeling natural and personalized. My wedding morning was stress-free and fun thanks to their organization, positive energy, and attention to detail. Seeing my mom, grandma, friends, and myself looking and feeling our best made the day even more memorable. Thank you, Christy Beauty LLC and your incredible glam team, for helping make my wedding day so perfect. I would highly recommend them to any bride looking for exceptional hair and makeup services!

As a proudly self-taught artist and devoted mother, I bring both heart and precision to every bridal experience. Growing up as one of ten children taught me the beauty of individuality, and that lesson lives at the core of my artistry. Based in the DMV, I’ve built my business on a passion for luxury beauty and a dedication to making your wedding glam an incredible experience. Doing my own wedding makeup was an experience that deepened my appreciation for the balance between artistry, emotion, and confidence. I’m honored to bring that same balance to every bride I work with, ensuring each moment feels luxurious, calm, and unforgettable.

After using Lilly for my own wedding, Lilly was the makeup artist for another wedding I was in. She is AMAZING! She makes you feel comfortable, beautiful, hyped. She’s so attentive and really tailors the look to the person. The moms at my wedding refused to book makeup. They insisted a makeup artist would make them look too overdone. After doing mine and my girls’ makeup, all the moms asked to be squeezed in. Not only did Lilly add 3 extra faces AT THE LAST MINUTE but she also took the time to ask them questions about what they liked/didn’t like to be sure to accommodate their preferences. Lilly has a wide range - from bold to natural. She did a fantastic job at both weddings and just brought such a great vibe. I highly highly recommend her!!
