Since it’s mostly me providing services, you get a calm, friendly, and customized experience from trial to “I do.” My goal is simple: to help you feel confident, radiant, and completely yourself on your wedding day—beauty, just for you.
I’m a salon and bridal stylist who pours my whole heart into creating personalized, feel-good beauty. At SHEL, every color, lash map, and style is custom because I believe your look should fit you perfectly. My studio is warm, welcoming, and all about making you feel confident and cared for.

I truly love what I do, and it shows in every connection, every moment, and every bit of glam I create.

Picture Perfect Wedding Glam
Shel Salon was an absolute dream to work with for my wedding hair and makeup. From our very first conversation, their communication was clear, responsive, and reassuring, putting me at ease throughout the entire process. On the day of, Katie's talent and attention to detail was evident in the gorgeous, long-lasting look she crafted for me. I felt beautiful and confident, and the results were stunning in our wedding photos. Shel Salon truly went above and beyond to ensure I felt my best on our special day. I highly recommend them to any couple looking for a skilled, professional that will deliver with care and expertise.

Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness, and thank you again for trusting Shel Salon to be part of your wedding day. 🥰Perfect hair day
Katie was incredible with my hair on my wedding day. She made what I imagined a reality. Not only was it absolutely beautiful but it was also extremely comfortable. She made getting ready for my wedding a breeze and showed up right on time! Have to give extra credit for her being able to manage my crazy frizzy and curly hair. The style lasted all day and night no frizz in sight!
Response from vendor•Nov 21, 2025Thank you so much for this beautiful review! It truly means the world to me. I’m so glad your hair turned out exactly how you envisioned — and that it stayed comfortable and frizz-free all day (your curls were a dream to work with!). Being a part of your wedding morning was such an honor, and I’m grateful you trusted me with such a special moment. Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness! 🤍✨
