About Modest Medusa - Wedding & Event Hairstyling

Modest Medusa - Wedding & Event Hairstyling

Hairstylist & Owner

Hello from your hairstyling hype girl! My name is Michelle; lead Hair Stylist & Owner of Modest Medusa. I am a licensed Hair Designer based in Snohomish Washington, specializing in wedding hair. With nearly a decade of experience in the wedding industry, I provide a personally customized experience & truly love my craft! I will travel to all corners of the PNW, & encourage travel beyond it. (seriously though, I love adventures). My favorite styles are soft and romantic, but I never hesitate to do something alternative and edgy. I have an eye for symmetry and balance, and I’m determined to meet each client’s hair vision.

I only book one event per day, because you deserve to have my full attention! Neither of us should feel rushed on top of an already specific timeline. I’m transparent with my clients, because not every hairstyle works for everyone. I will provide my suggestions and do what I can to ease worry and help construct a hair design that will pair well with your attire, theme, & the weather! I may only do hair, but I believe that allows you to also find a makeup artist who stands out in their own specialty! Modest Medusa is inclusive and LGBTQ+ friendly, providing hairstyling services to everyone!

Michelle is truly incredible! She never fails to make my hair look gorgeous, and every appointment feels like a mix of therapy, dog talk, and nonstop laughter. I always feel completely at ease in her chair. My wedding hair was absolutely perfect, she brought my Pinterest inspo to life and made me feel stunning. But what meant even more was how she went above and beyond that day, dropping everything without hesitation to be by my side when I truly needed her. Beyond being an amazing stylist and person, I’m so grateful to also call her a friend.
Best bridal hair!!

Modest Medusa Wedding & Event Hairstyling was an absolute dream to work with for my wedding day. From the moment I reached out, Michelle was so kind, patient, and attentive, really taking the time to understand my vision and making me feel completely at ease. On the day of, Michelle was so gentle and detail-oriented as she created the most beautiful, creative hairstyle for me. She even surprised me with a sweet little gift of bride accessories that I ended up wearing on my honeymoon! When my nerves started to get the best of me before the ceremony, Michelle took the time to calm me down and keep me relaxed. I'm so grateful for the care and artistry Michelle brought to my special day she truly went above and beyond to make me feel beautiful and confident. I would recommend Modest Medusa to any bride looking for a talented, kind, and professional hair stylist!!

Modest Medusa (Michelle) was amazing!!! Finding someone who would travel for my wedding was difficult but Michelle was more than willing! Michelle did my hair beautifully! I would recommend Modest Medusa over and over again. I am so glad to have found her for my special day! Not only did she do my hair, but also my husbands. Michelle came prepared, even with "just in case" supplies like a crochet hook to button my dress with. Truly thinks of ALL the things for her clients on their special day.
Best hair stylist!!!!

Michelle was absolutely THE BEST!!!!! She is communicative, prompt, professional, and really kind and funny. It felt like a friend was getting me ready for my day, and my hair was the best it has ever looked. She executed the wedding look I wanted perfectly. I wanted a soft, low bun with soft face framing locks. I was really worried about my wedding hair because I have alopecia areata and lose quarter-sized patches of hair. I am self-conscious of my bald spots and many different stages of hair regrowth from past bald spots, and didn't want them showing. Michelle alleviated my worries, was so kind and caring towards me, and made me feel prettier than I ever had in my life. Thank you Michelle!!!!!
