“Russell and his team at 1Makeup Man were nothing short of lifesavers for my wedding. When I had to find a new hair and makeup team at the last minute, I was terrified I wouldn’t find anyone in time. But from the moment I spoke with Russell on the phone, I knew he was the one. He listened carefully, understood exactly what I was looking for, and reassured me that I would feel like myself on my wedding day—and he delivered on that promise.
Russell was incredibly warm and welcoming during my trial, which put me at ease immediately. Ashley handled my hair, and she was so patient and attentive as we figured out the perfect style. She listened to my (admittedly vague) ideas and turned them into the most beautiful look for my big day. Mallory took care of makeup and was just as fantastic. None of us in the wedding party wear much makeup, and she created natural, elegant looks that made everyone feel beautiful and comfortable. She even charmed my 3-year-old flower girl by applying pretend makeup, which was such a sweet touch.
Both Ashley and Mallory became part of our getting-ready party, blending seamlessly into the morning and helping everything run smoothly. Their warmth, professionalism, and talent made the day even more special.
I feel so lucky to have found Russell and his team—they truly saved the day and exceeded every expectation. I couldn’t recommend them more highly to anyone looking for a team that is not only talented but also an absolute joy to work with!”
