Maddy (Hair) and Lina (makeup) did a really great job for myself and my bridal party. They were very easy to work with and did a great job of taking inspiration pictures and going from there. The company was very easy to work with too. It was a little more expensive than I wanted to spend but it ended up being worth it in the end

I hired Cactus Hair Salon to find my officiant and I had the absolute pleasure to get to know Krena. From the first moment I met her, I knew she’d do myself and my husband right. She showed up on the day (honestly earlier than I expected her to) and helped to ease my nerves and smooth things over with my family. She even offered to mail in my marriage certificate for me so I wouldn’t have to worry about it. She was extremely sweet to my family and listened to me vent and spin my wheels. (General wedding day stress) She even talked to my day of coordinator (long story) and did what she could to smooth things over with that. My family loved her and raved about her. She was truly a rockstar. I wish I hired Cactus Hair Salon for wedding day coordination also. The owner, Krystal, is extremely professional and detail oriented and you can just tell she is passionate about this market and brides in general. I would book them a million times over.

The Cactus Hair Salon crew was wonderful to work with!! I do not usually wear a lot of make up, and wanted a natural but elevated look for my wedding. I did a makeup trial prior to...

booking and knew immediately afterwards that I did not need to continue the search for hair or makeup! Logan listened to my concerns, offered insight and made me feel beautiful at both my make up and later my hair trial. The day of, the girls were so sweet and were able to get hair and makeup finished for 5 of us in under 3 hours! Cactus Hair Salon is affordable, friendly, willing to travel, and made me and my group feel fantastic! I cannot recommend them enough!

Lydia C

Cactus did an amazing job with my wedding hair! Email communications throughout the process were very helpful, and Krystal quickly responded to all of my follow-up questions. Loga...

n did a great job at my trial of creating a hairstyle for me based on my Pinterest board. I didn’t know exactly what I wanted going into the trial, but what she came up with was perfect. On the day of the wedding, Logan and her team started and finished on time and were very professional. Logan did a great job replicating the style she did during the trial. All of my bridesmaids were also happy with the final results. My hair held really well all night and looks beautiful in all of the photos. (Note: Cactus only was responsible for hair, I did my own makeup.)

ir Salon as well. The only issue the day of the wedding was that my face framing pieces had to be re-curled a few hours later.

Kara S

I used Cactus for wedding hair and makeup and also for day of coordination. I absolutely loved my hair and makeup! My bridal party and mom also had their hair and makeup done. They...

all looked amazing too, however, my MOH said one of the girls was rude to her. We booked the groom service for my husband and were very disappointed. We thought he was going to get a straight razor shave as advertised in the package, that didn’t happen so his beard didn’t look as nice as he wanted. He also wasn’t very happy with how they styled his hair, and ended up redoing it. Krystal was great with helping plan and helping to make a timeline for the day. But day of things seemed off and some things were forgotten. Overall it was a good experience, and I would absolutely recommend them for hair and makeup.

Andrea R

I used Catus for my wedding hair and makeup and had several members in the bridal party receive those services as well! I did get a trial done for both hair and makeup a few months...

prior and totally switched up my makeup plan on the wedding day. The makeup artist had no problem with the switch up on the wedding day and really listens to your wants. My bridal party loved their services as well-hair and makeup. They are so easy to work with and really appreciate how they quote/invoice-everything is broken down clearly! Makeup and hair stayed in tack for the entire day-wedding day was also on a very hot day in June! Highly recommend checking them out and utilizing their various services!

Libby B

I booked Cactus Hair Salon for my wedding makeup. As someone who had never had my makeup professionally done I was anxious but Kat nailed it. After the trial they recommended other...

services and was met with the same satisfaction from their esthetician, Shannon, for a facial, brow tint, and brow wax. On wedding day Kat and Lexi did such an amazing job. The salon is so welcoming, all the staff are amazing, and Krystal makes sure you have everything in order.

Madelyne S

I found cactus through recommendation of another friend who got married last year. After looking through their feed and packages, I quickly booked them. Lexi and Logan and the team...

were the absolute dream team for my wedding day. They were not only fun and energetic with us early in the morning, but they were professional and quick too! Everyone who got their hair and makeup done had only the highest praises and were so excited to see the final product. Makeup did not move at all even with all my years of joy on the wedding day. And my hair was styled into the late evening of dancing that still looked freshly styled. The team was amazing and I only have the highest compliments for them. I think one of my bridesmaids might be booking them for the future!

Emily C

Cactus hair Salon did a wonderful job with my bridal hair and makeup and the hair/makeup for my wedding party. They traveled to our getting ready location and were very prompt and ...

professional and got the entire wedding party done early! I absolutely loved my bridal look (they were able to incorporate all of the changes we discussed together after a trial without an issue). Only negative would be that the wedding party's hair didn't stay curled for longer than a few hours (for hair that normally holds curl very well) but my bridal hair stayed all night.

I absolutely loved working with Cactus Hair Salon for my wedding day! They were incredibly flexible with my wishes and schedule, and my stylist, Logan, did a great job listening to...

Everyone looked beautiful!

Victoria M

One of the best decisions I made while wedding planning was booking this team for my hair and makeup! I could write multiple paragraphs raving about my experience, but to save you ...

all the length here are the points to what made this the best decision. 1. Flexibility - ablilty to adjust the amount of people, services, and timing up to a just couple weeks before the wedding. I really benefitted from this as some of my bridal party wasn't sure if they would get their hair/make up done (or be able to attend due to moving) and this made it easy to allow more time before making the decision. 2. One stop shop for all your hair needs - I wanted extensions and a color match prior to the wedding and did it all through the salon 3. Upfront about the cost - before coming in for an extension consultation Krystal was up front about the general cost which was much appreciated to know what I was getting into before arriving, quote was for maximum estimated people, breakdown all costs, and included tip! 4. Punctuality! This team was set up and ready to go 15 minutes before the contracted time even started. Krystal was proactive in reaching out to me and discussing timing off all appointments which helped keep me on track and not overwhelmed! 5. The energy!! Shout out to Bekka & Lexie for making this experience the best! Getting 8 people ready in a short period of time is not an easy task. I couldn't have asked for a better start to the day than having that team take care of me. They were incredibly encouraging and it truly felt like they were celebrating with me!

Angie K

Dream team doesn't even begin to describe the ladies at Cactus. When our bridal party walked in on the morning of my wedding, we were greeted by a team of hair and makeup pros, mim...

osas, and a platter of sandwiches and fruit. Logan styled my hair and did my makeup and when she was done, I couldn't believe how amazing and beautiful I felt. Not only that, but everyone's hair and makeup stayed perfect the whole day! No one had to touch up or make changes throughout the day. We also utilized the shuttle service. It was so fun and really made the trip to the venue easier than having multiple cars. Krystal is also incredible. She was so easy to plan with and answered all my questions quickly and kindly. Our whole bridal party felt at home with Cactus. If I could give them more than 5 stars, I absolutely would!

Hired them for me and my bridal party for just hair services and no makeup - everyone loved their hair and they really were easy to work with! Really contributed to a chill morning...

-of vibe. When I went and did the hair trial, I liked it, but had comments for the day-of. My stylist took my comments and ran with it, and really made my hair exactly what I wanted and it was stunningly gorgeous. To be honest, they are pricier than I was originally looking for, but after experiencing my entire wedding day, I do not regret it at all - they were worth every penny!

friend changed my mind and BOY, AM I GLAD SHE DID. Cactus Hair Salon was super communicative leading up to the trial and my wedding. I was asked questions about my style and what I was looking for so that I could be paired with the right person. Jessie did my hair and make-up and I looked like a freaking princess!! It was perfect. I am still looking at pictures from that day, including pictures that Jessie took and I am blown away! She also came to me in Hocking Hills when it was only me getting hair and make-up done which was hard to find. I would definitely recommend anyone getting married, especially in the Hocking Hills area, use Cactus Hair Salon.

their hair done and thought I was doomed, but Krystal did not even bat an eye and took care of my girls like it was the plan all along. I cannot say enough great things about this team!

Wonderfully priced and very friendly. Maybe not the top of the line or over the top styling wise but I looked and felt beautiful.

I would say I did not feel like the value of the services for my wedding hair and makeup matched up with the (high) price. The hair team did not seem to know what they were doing. ...

My bridesmaid had ok makeup, while i was over here looking like a drag queen.

ed artists pride themselves on providing exceptional service to all of our clients. Because you left no name and chose a wedding date that we performed no weddings on, we are unable to look back at our records to see what might have gone wrong. We encourage you to contact us with any concerns you had during our time together. We use this input to learn and grow. Thank you for reaching out! We wish you all the best from Cactus Hair Salon!

I was not on top of booking beauty services for our wedding, and struck out with the few businesses which were commonly recommended on Columbus wedding forums. Luckily, I discovere...

d Cactus Hair Salon, and even more luckily they were available for our date! Huge shout out to Logan, the lead stylist for our day. She kept everyone organized, calm, and finished ahead of schedule! She incorporated my feedback from our trial and my wedding-day hair was better than I imagined! She also suggested hair pins, which really completed the look with elegance and a little pizzaz. My updo stayed in place all night (even survived a bridesmaid getting her bouquet tangled in my hair!). Kenna was our makeup artist and Lexi was our second stylist. Kenna is super sweet and loves natural color palettes, which is just what I wanted for makeup. Kenna, Lexi, and Logan were all professional and friendly, and able to handle different hair types of our wedding party (from very curly and fine and straight). Everyone’s curls held the whole night, even one bridesmaid who in 10 years I have never seen successfully curl her hair. We had 8 hair services and 3 makeup services in just under 3 hours, on-site at the venue. When I was a bit concerned about this timeline ahead of our big day, the owner Krystal was happy to talk this through with me and assuage my fears. She was always available by text or email to answers my questions in the lead-up to our big day. They also offer in-salon wedding services at their Canal Winchester location, which is brand new as of Summer 2021 and so cute inside (this is where my trial was)! I would HIGHLY recommend Cactus Hair Salon and their wedding services!
