Sandra was the best! She was very easy to communicate with. I do not normally wear much make up, but still wanted to feel special on my wedding day.

Brittany and Dee from Society 11:11 Hair & Makeup were absolutely wonderful to work with for our wedding day. From our first communication, they were friendly, warm, and very responsive, taking the time to understand exactly what we were looking for. On the day of, they were incredibly patient and adaptable as I had made major changes (cut all of my hair off and changed the style). My hair and makeup looked natural, and they worked collaboratively with me to bring my vision to life. My partner was glowing! They were also right on time and shared their schedules with us and our wedding party, which helped keep the whole day relaxed and on schedule. We couldn't have asked for a better beauty team to be a part of our special day. Highly recommend!

Strange Artistry - Luxury Makeup & Hair by Kristin Mastrangelo

  • Serves McLean, VA

Let’s chat! I love chatting…it’s totally my favorite! I’m Kristin Mastrangelo, (go head, try it out…it’s easier than it looks), a makeup & hair artist who specializes in wedding, special event, & television artistry, spending most of my time trying to think of PC ways to avoid putting on “real” pants. I’m a wife of 15 years & momster of 4. Obsessed with heavy metal, tea, all black everything, horror movies all the time, a creature of the night. I hate being late. Personally, I believe everyone should be at least a little weird...normal is a setting on a dryer...so embrace you, be different, and do what you want.

Awarded Best of Zola
If I could give more stars I would! Kristin was such a treat to work with. Not only does she do an AMAZING job with makeup, she is honestly such a sweet person. She made the day even more special and I was honored to have her a part of it. She was kind and sweet and open to ideas. Everyone in my family loved her. Makeup wise, she is awesome! My makeup stayed on all day! We got married in Luray Caverns and took photos by the willow trees, it was hot but the makeup stayed on and still looked amazing. If you need a makeup artist for your big day, Kristin is your girl! Thanks so much for being a part of my day!

Rita and her team did a great job with the hair and makeup for my wedding in November 2024. She was very responsive during the booking process, everything was very clear and seamless. The trial went well and she made sure that I liked how everything looked. Everything on the day of the wedding looked as expected based on the trial. I hardly ever wear makeup and asked for a more natural look and it turned out perfect! I also have fine hair and was worried about having volume, but Rita was able to make my hair look thicker than it is. Both the hair and makeup lasted all night and still looked good after being done around 12pm. We had 6 people getting services and everything was done on time by Rita and her assistant, she provided a schedule so that I was able to let people know when they could arrive. I would recommend Rita to anyone looking for wedding hair and makeup services, she was a pleasure to work with. Thank you!

I had Ammal out for a formal event my company hosted. It was outside of her usual glam looks but I had seen a few of her posts with brighter colors and so I reached out. She was extremely communicative, asking questions to be sure she had the full scope, answered all of my questions, and was eager to participate. Her rates were absolutely amazing for the quality and amount of work that she did for our guests. This was a fantasy event and she knocked it out of the park! We have already talked with her about booking for our next event in the area.

Congratulations on your engagement! I am so happy for the opportunity to share in your wedding day bliss! I am a full service luxury traveling hair stylist based in Stafford, VA. I have had the privilege of being a part of bride's biggest day since 2015, working with over 200 bridal clients.

Kristle is AMAZING!! Talk about talented and professional. She is incredibly responsive, and was by far the quickest responding vendor we had for our May 4th 2024 wedding. Our start time was 10 am and she was fully set up and ready by 9:45 waiting for us to start. She is so quick and was ahead of schedule- something that is almost unheard of at weddings and saved us. A few weeks before, she was flexible, allowing me to add another bridesmaid and a blow out. She was funny and kind to me and all my girls while still being incredibly professional the whole time. She put clip in hair extensions for me that I could barely feel and my husband didn’t even notice I had them in it blended so smoothly. I didn’t get a chance to do a trial with her before due to my busy schedule but she didn’t let that phase her and was able to give me the hair of my dreams- better than I even expected. Thank you Kristle!!!

Sasha Styles 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
  • Serves McLean, VA

Hi there! I'm Sasha and I'm the proud owner of Sasha Styles. I have been in the hair salon industry for 10 years and loving every second of it. I love doing hair because I get to make every person I meet feel great about themselves. I graduated from Paul Mitchell and continue to explore and learn all that I can about hair styling and care. My services range from cuts and up-dos to full wedding party styles.

I first discovered Sasha as a recommended vendor via my makeup artist, Kiley Smith. Knowing that they’d worked together before and trusted each other as professionals, with a similar high standard for their services, put me at ease right from the start! Sasha’s Instagram showcases the wide-ranging hair styles she’s capable of, and all are beautiful. As a July bride, I knew I wanted an up-do to beat the heat, but also have thin hair that’s not super long, and wasn’t sure what was possible with my hair type. The outcome surpassed my expectations! I came to my hair trial in Sasha’s cozy home studio with a vague description of what I wanted, a few google images, and some decorative bobby pins from Etsy – Sasha took that and transformed my hair into my dream come true! I loved it so much that I was sad to take it down at the end of the night. Day-of, Sasha flawlessly recreated the hair style from my trial, and helped make the wedding morning feel relaxed and fun! My wedding party included my mom and mother-in-law, aunt, cousin, and sister, and everyone had a wide range of hair types and hair lengths. Sasha kept things moving on schedule, while simultaneously making everyone feel comfortable, at ease, and their most beautiful! When my sister and I both accidentally messed up the front, curled tendrils of our up-dos while getting dressed, Sasha graciously unpacked her supplies once again to re-curl our hair and make sure we were picture-perfect before she departed (and our hair stayed flawless all night)! It truly felt like Sasha was “one of the girls” hanging out with us all wedding morning, and everyone loved her! Could not recommend her enough!

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!!
