Had an amazing experience with Wendy and her team for my bridal party. She was really flexible with hair styles/make-up and all my ladies came out looking amazing!

Wendy and her staff (Emely was my stylist for the wedding day) were great. They were very accommodating with booking both the trial and the day of. Emely in particular was great and she was very receptive to changes I wanted to make to my makeup after seeing the trial. They were definitely one of the more budget-friendly options in the DC area, and I think it was a great value! If I was having my second wedding in DC, I would definitely use again!

Absolute Beauty by Wendy was everything that I was looking for with wedding hair and makeup. They were punctual, friendly, and extremely efficient. I loved being able to do a trial for both hair and makeup as well. The team was able to do eight hair and eight makeup in less time than they had originally scheduled, which helped us stay even more on schedule!

Wendy is absolutely amazing! Wonderful to work with, and is experienced with all types of hair textures and skin tones. What I loved most about working with Wendy was her ability to truly understand what you want. I've had little success with hair salons understanding how to work with my hair, but Wendy understood right away and was able to pull off the hairstyle of my dreams for my wedding day! You can tell as she works that she truly loves what she does, and that makes all the difference.

Wendy and her team were simply incredible. They were all extremely talented, kind, patient, and clearly very experienced. They all showed up to the venue at exactly the time they said they would, despite it being early and a long drive for them. I had never had an updo before and I don't wear a lot of makeup so I was nervous about both my hair and my makeup. Wendy instantly put me at ease during my trial and worked with me to make my hair and makeup look better than I ever could have imagined. As much as I loved my trial, the wedding day was EVEN BETTER. My hair was perfect and held all day, through a lot of sweat and dancing. My makeup looked great and very natural, both in person and in photos, and also remained flawless all day and night. Wendy and her team did hair and makeup for my whole bridal party and my mom. This included a lot of different hair types and requested styles, and they did a perfect job with them all. They worked quickly but still gave everyone thoughtful individu... Read moreal attention. I was so impressed and cannot recommend them highly enough.

I truly enjoyed working with Wendy. She made the whole process, from booking to the trial to the day of, so simple and quick. It was so helpful that she was able to come to me on the day of the wedding, and of course, she did an incredible job!! She did hair & makeup for me and my mom, and we both felt so beautiful. My mom especially looked fabulous--Wendy gave her an incredibly chic look, complete with flowers from my bouquet! I highly recommend Wendy for all of your hair & makeup needs.

I had a 5:45am start for my elopement and Wendy arrived at 3:45 to make me feel beautiful! It was just the two of us at that early morning hour so I felt so grateful to have someone so kind keep me company on my wedding morning and despite getting nearly no sleep, I felt so beautiful that whole day! She was responsive and punctual and I’d definitely recommend her to anyone!

I had such a wonderful experience with Wendy and Emely. I felt so beautiful at my wedding and all my bridesmaids looked like princesses. It was a wonderful time getting ready and Emely did a great job at helping me and my friends get the look they both wanted! Thanks so much!!

Wendy was very professional in the hair and makeup. As well as her makeup artist helper, Emily, both were very pacient with all of us 6 bridesmaids and Bride for the wedding. Both were quick and made the makeup stay all night long. The pricing was very adorable for someone who is on a budget. I would definitely recommend Wendy for any occasion.

The team did a fantastic job with our hair and makeup for my wedding in July 2021. I could not be happier!

First off - Wendy worked with me through postponing my wedding due to COVID, and we still ended up having to get married in a small family-only ceremony because we were still in full pandemic 8 months later. Wendy handled the reschedule plus doing my trial and day-of during COVID with grace and professionalism. Pandemic aside, I was a little nervous for my wedding hair and makeup - I don't wear a lot of makeup but wanted to go for it for my wedding. So glad I did! Wendy made me feel comfortable and gave me options along the way to make sure she did what worked for me. Day-of, all of the wedding party were happy with their hair - from my 15 y/o niece to the mother of the groom. And I had so many comments on my make-up and hair. Wendy was a pleasure to work with!

I had the best experience with Wendy for my wedding hair and my bridesmaid hair. Her pricing is great for the DC area and she was able to travel to my venue which was further out. For the trial, Wendy took her time with my hair and it looked amazing. For the wedding day, Wendy and her assistant took into consideration the different looks my bridesmaids wanted and were very detailed in their work. My hair was absolutely amazing on my wedding (even better than the trial, which I didn't know was possible). I would highly recommend Wendy to anyone in need of wedding hair or any other hair styles as well. She was such a great person to work with.

Wendy and her team did a phenomenal job helping me and my bridesmaids get ready ahead of my ceremony. I purchased wreaths/head pieces for us all, and Wendy did not miss a beat incorporating them into some beautiful hairstyles.

I was a little nervous since I opted out of a hair trial; I was simply going off her website and the good reviews on weddingwire . My hair as well as my bridesmaids hair looked absolutely phenomenal. I got so many compliments and continue to get them on my pictures. I felt like a princess! Wendy was responsive, prompt, brought everything she needed to do the job, and everyone was very very pleased with her work. It also helped that we sent her pictures in advance so there weren't any delays or confusion on the day of the wedding. I’d highly recommend Wendy. She’s a true professional and does great work!!
