Skyler and Madison from LE Glam Team were great! Skyler made sure I felt confident and beautiful for my wedding. After our first hair trial, I second-guessed what I wanted, and she was more than happy to schedule another trial to help me find the perfect look. I have alopecia, and finding a hairstylist who is not only willing but genuinely happy to work with wigs can be challenging—but Skyler handled everything with care, skill, and positivity. I was really happy to learn that she had worked with wigs before and she was completely undaunted. She made the entire process easy, stress-free, and fun. On my wedding day, my hair looked perfect and held up beautifully all day. Thank you Skyler! Madison, who did our makeup, was also amazing - she has done my eyebrows for years and is the best of the best. Everyone looked stunning! My makeup didn't budge all day and night, and I felt so beautiful!

My hair is super thick and can be a challenge, but Grace worked absolute magic on it. She nailed exactly what I wanted (and was mindful of what I didn’t), and my style held up beautifully all day long (even when it started to torrentially rain!). It looked stunning in every photo. She also did an incredible job on my bridesmaids and mom, planning her timeline perfectly so that everything felt smooth and stress-free. I felt completely relaxed in her chair and never once worried about being behind schedule. Her professionalism, talent, and calming presence made such a difference on our special day!

Heather at Sparrow Hair Studio has been my stylist for the past seven years or so. I've sung her praises & been a devoted client, but it was even more impressive to see her shine as a wedding vendor! She's the second person I told about my engagement (after BFF & before family). Her "bedside demeanor" during the trial and on the day of with mom & BFF were impeccable. She really knows how to communicate with everyone - to make them feel comfortable, to recognize styles that work for their hair type and personal taste, and to offer suggestions for the day/wear-time/weather/vibe. She's a true professional in every sense of the word. Coordinating with her is incredibly easy, like a touchstone of sanity in the stressful planning time. I could go on & on, but instead, just look at the insane dream-Barbie, gravity-defying ponytail she gave me!! 11/10 - would get divorced & remarried just to have Heather make me feel like a movie star again.

One of the things myself and my team love about working with them the most is their attention to detail. From supporting us by providing well-structured hair and makeup timelines to ensuring every service is tailored to each individual, they approach each wedding with professionalism and care. I can trust that they’ll show up for our couples prepared, organized, and fully aligned with the overall vision. My team and I always feel confident recommending KW Glam to our couples and genuinely look forward to every wedding we get to collaborate on together.

💖 About Me 💖 Hi, I’m Courtney, a passionate bridal hair stylist with 10+ years of experience. I specialize in creating stunning hairstyles that reflect your unique style and make you feel beautiful on your special day.

I pride myself on my attention to detail and warm, friendly service to make your experience enjoyable. Let’s work together to craft the perfect look for your big day! I can’t wait to meet you! 💐

Courtney was wonderful to work with from the very beginning. Very easy to talk to and communicate with. I was so nervous going into my hair trial but immediately felt welcomed and comfortable. My hair trial went so well and it made me feel much more confident about my wedding day. On the day of the wedding, Courtney was on-time, professional, and efficient. Everyone loved their hair and my hair turned out exactly as I imagined (even better than what I imagined, honestly!). I got so many compliments on my hair from guests. My hair stayed in place all day and all night even through taking my veil out after the ceremony. Even more impressive, it didn’t budge when we went bowling at our reception (see picture). Not a hair out of place! Working with Courtney was one of the best choices I made when booking wedding vendors! Highly recommend Courtney!!

Lustre & Waves is a wedding hair and makeup company based in Southern Maine. They strive to have you looking and feeling amazing for your special occasions. They specialize in elegant and natural hair and makeup looks and will provide top-notch service to you and your wedding party.

I cannot say enough amazing things about Lustre and Waves! From the moment they arrived, they brought such a warm and welcoming energy that instantly made the morning feel calm, organized, and stress-free. They created the perfect atmosphere for the girls and I to relax, enjoy the moment, and get ready for the biggest day of my life. Calina and Elizabeth were truly incredible. They took the time to understand my vision and brought it to life beautifully. Not only are they incredibly talented, but they are also kind, thoughtful, and made me feel so comfortable and confident throughout the entire morning. Even with seven girls getting hair and makeup done, they kept everything running smoothly and there was never a moment of stress about whether we would finish on time. They were efficient, professional, and made the whole process feel effortless. I am so grateful to Lustre and Waves for being such an important part of my wedding day. I would recommend them to any bride looking for a team that combines amazing talent with genuine care and kindness!
