Anomalie Beauty was a dream to work with!! Dani is incredible! She made the entire experience super easy and she was available whenever I had a question. She was quick to help me find artists for my scheduled events and kept track of any changes based on availability. Every artist I worked with was on time, professional, respectful and really listened to me when I explained what I wanted and worked with me to achieve the perfect look. You could tell by the way that they each talked about their work that they were really passionate about what they were doing and really cared about how you felt and wanted to look and made sure you were completely happy before packing up. I could not recommend Anomalie more for any event and I look forward to using them in the future.

Hi there! I’m Jacquee. I am a licensed esthetician and freelance makeup artist. I was trained in makeup artistry and hair design at Make Up First in Chicago. My esthetics training was completed at the Universal Spa Training Academy in Downers Grove. So now that we’ve got that out of the way let’s talk about what I can help you with! I’m well versed in all areas of makeup from beauty and bridal to commercial, theatrical, and even special effects. I’m just as comfortable working on a film set as I am working with my brides. I enjoy making people feel good about themselves and I put my all into everything I do.

Jacquee and her team did hair and makeup for myself, two of my bridesmaids, my mom, and MIL for my wedding, and we were all so pleased with the results! As someone who knows nothing about hair and makeup, Jacquee worked with me to find a style that made me feel comfortable and confident on my wedding day. I have naturally curly hair, and Jacquee did an amazing job styling my curls. Everything held up through a 95 degree day, lots of walking, and all night on the dance floor. I would highly recommend Makeup by Jacquee for your wedding hair and makeup needs.

I found Hairs 2 Bride at a bridal expo in Schaumburg. They did my hair/makeup and my bridesmaides/ mom’s hair & makeup for my wedding a couple weeks ago. Lisa did my hair & makeup and Angel worked on the others. They both arrived early. Lisa did an incredible job with my hair and makeup and capturing the more natural vibe I wanted. She was also super helpful with organizing and giving tips to my bridesmaides to help make the day run more smoothly. They both finished their services on time and stayed really structured. I also really liked my experience working with the owner/administrative team, they were always super responsive & I liked the chart they sent before my wedding that had everyone’s services timed out/planned out.

Beauty by Ann Krause was a pleasure to work. For the trial, they came to my apartment, were very friendly and communicative. Their communication was prompt, clear, and detailed throughout the entire process. Laura, my makeup artist, was so friendly, she even recommended the pet attending service we used for our dog - that personal touch was so appreciated! She addressed all my concerns and put together a touch-up kit that I ended up not needing. Erica, my hairstylist was great, she even made adjustments after our trial to allow for movement and softness while still holding the curl. The quality of their work was long-lasting, beautiful and completely customized to my vision. I'm thrilled with how everything turned out and would highly recommend. My whole bridal party used Beauty by Ann Krause and everyone had only great things to say.

Kim did absolutely incredible work, and I couldn’t be happier that I chose her for my wedding day. From the trial alone, I knew she was the one. Despite a heavy storm and me getting caught in the rain, my hair lasted flawlessly all day. On the actual day, she somehow made my hair look even better than my inspiration photos, something I honestly never thought possible. She worked so efficiently and gracefully, even in the tight space of a small hotel suite (sorry, Kim!), and had my hair finished by 11am. Before the big day we created a custom schedule for everyone, which was amazing and helped the rest of the day run smooth. The hair stayed picture perfect through the entire wedding, hours of dancing, endless hugs, and even through the after-party until 3am. The longevity and quality were beyond anything I could have hoped for. What meant the most to me, though, was how Kim cared for my maid of honor. In the months leading up to the wedding, my MOH began experiencing alopecia and was anxious about having a formal hairstyle. Kim not only reassured her with such professionalism and compassion, but also created pure magic. Her hairstyle was stunning, and you would never have known she had any hair loss at all. The confidence and beauty Kim gave her that day meant the world to both of us. She went above and beyond for everyone, exceeding every expectation. I am endlessly grateful and would recommend Kim to anyone looking for a stylist who is not only incredibly talented but also kind, thoughtful, and truly dedicated to making her clients feel beautiful.

I was so worried because she was one of those “only a little of this and that” but Nancy did such an amazing job, my MOH was so happy!

Ellvia Beauty was a true pleasure to work with for our wedding day. Their communication was top-notch - they were always quick to respond to my emails, usually within 24 hours. On the day of, Nikki and Alecia were amazing! They listened to everything we had to say and curated the perfect looks for everyone. The quality of their work was incredible - I've never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day thanks to their skills. My hair and makeup stayed picture-perfect throughout the entire event. I can't recommend Ellvia Beauty enough to any future brides looking for a beauty team that will help you look and feel your absolute best on your special day.

Brianna did my makeup for my wedding day and it stayed on flawlessly even throughout the 100 degree humid June weather. She was so easy to work with too. I felt like a princess and received so many compliments on my makeup.
