Dream Team
Shade and Strand was a dream to work with on every level. They were incredibly, almost instantaneously responsive to questions and requests (thank you Heather!). The hair and makeup team (Kelly and Victoria) were not only extremely talented and made us all look incredible but made the experience just so wonderful. I chose to bring my mother to the trial with me and they were so kind and fun, really listened to what we were envisioning and made it a once in a lifetime, lasting memory for the both of us. They were on time the day of, took care of all of our bridesmaids, including our young flower girl and every single one of them absolutely loved their look. I could not have asked for a better team than these gals. I would 1000% use them again and recommend them for a wedding or any event.

Shade & Strand Team are Amazing
Heather and Victoria from Shade & Strand were absolutely amazing to work with! They made my special day so memorable for not only me, but my bridesmaids and family members as well. I felt the most beautiful I’ve ever been, and they made me feel super comfortable. They’re both so fun and have great energy! I’ll be recommending them to all my friends who are getting married in the future. Loved them!

Kelly and Victoria are amazing!!
Kelly and Victoria were amazing! From the start at the makeup trial they really listened to what I wanted and adjusted accordingly. They even recommended skincare to prep me for the big day. They also did an amazing job on my bridesmaids, mom and grooms mom and got us all done on time and picture ready. They’re the best! Book them!

Look no further
Heather & her team are incredible. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day, and still felt like myself. My biggest fear was getting hair & makeup done and then not looking like *me* since I don't normally do a full face of makeup. Trust me when I say they elevate your look to make you feel special enough like it's your wedding day but it's still YOU! They did my hair so wonderfully, as well as my sister (who has waist length & thick hair) and my mom, and we all felt so pretty. It was honestly just such a fun experience (as it should be!) getting ready with these gals, we were laughing and just having a great time. I would not go anywhere else! They are so talented:) We're still waiting on our professional photos but added some of our personal ones.
