About

The business describes itself as a home for a team of gifted makeup artists and hair stylists, and says it has been part of clients' biggest days for over a decade. Laura Bratz founded it and owns it, and works as its principal stylist.

Bridal work is the center of the business. Bridal parties can book hair and makeup in the studio or on location, and the team is assembled around the size of the party. Wedding bookings are made through a signed contract that carries a $125 administration fee and an 18% gratuity. A deposit of 10% of the total services secures a date, and wedding payment is due on the day in cash only. On-location bridal bookings need at least three hair and/or three makeup services, and travel is charged at $0.70 per mile round trip with a $25 minimum. Each extra staff member on a wedding adds a $25 per stylist fee, weddings starting at 7 AM or earlier carry a $100 early morning fee, and touch-ups past the original finish time are $100 per hour for each staff member. Out-of-state and long-distance services more than an hour away are available with pricing on request.

Brides who want the studio for their own day can rent it for $250 with a signed contract, for unlimited hours. Once reserved for a wedding the salon is closed to the public, and only one wedding group can book per day. Bookings are first come, first served, and outside food and beverages are allowed. A client review also mentions teeth whitening being available in the studio before a bridal trial.

Special occasion bookings cover hair, makeup, lashes and brows, and spray tans for events such as date nights, photo shoots and fitness competitions. Corporate headshots and professional photo shoots are also offered, priced on inquiry by group size, location and timing.

The business says it aims for flawless results for its clients, and works as a team so that bridal parties of any size can be covered.
