I had the honor of having Erin do my hair for my wedding and she knocked it out of the park! Not only is she incredibly talented as a hair stylist, she is an incredible person and ...
was a joy to be around the morning of my wedding. I have gotten my hair done professionally several times, but this was the first time I truly LOVED the way it turned out. The best part was that it looked great to start and great to finish - even after three hours on the dance floor! Thank you for everything, Erin! If you are looking for someone to take your vision and execute it flawlessly, Erin is your girl!
Erin gave me the best haircut ever! She truly understands curls and made my curly bangs style dreams come true. She also styled my curls better, faster, and easier than anyone ever...
has before. I hope she never leaves NYC because I want her to cut my hair forever! Had I met her before my wedding a few years ago, I would have absolutely flown her to Vermont so she could work her magic with my curls on that special day!
Erin is the best stylist you could ask for Wedding Day or other. She is so sweet, brings such a calm and lovely energy and truly does magic with hair! I was very indecisive about w...
hat I wanted my to hair to look like on the big day and she worked patiently with me during our trial to create my perfect look. She gave thoughtful and professional advice and really listened to my needs, concerns and desires. I wanted something playful, whimsical, soft and beautiful and she gave me exactly that. Not only is she talented but she’s, reliable, thoughtful, professional, warm and overall great! She is the ONLY person I go to for all things hair now a-days including cuts. She’s truly a hair magician and you should definitely hire her for your big day!
Erin came very very highly recommended to me. She made me love my curls. She has a wonderful energy that puts you at ease right away. Not only did she cut my hair but she taught...
me step-by-step how to style it. She is very very skilled with curly hair and has curly hair herself, so she gets it.
I would not hesitate to send anybody to Erin for their hair.
Erin is as good as they come. She is so incredibly talented and her work is flawless. I had a destination wedding and she made me totally comfortable with the fact that we weren’...
t doing my hair trial until the day before the wedding (not that I was ever really nervous in her professional hands), even though in the weeks leading up to that day I kept sending her pictures of totally different styles and looks – I was so scatterbrained about what I wanted! Because we hadn’t decided on the exact style prior, she guided me from afar through different options of picking accessories which was so appreciated (if you use this piece your hair will need to be up, if you do this it will need to be asymmetrical or symmetrical, etc). Then, during our trial, she somehow was able to pinpoint all of the various things that I liked about different styles and find a way to turn it into one cohesive look. I felt like a freaking glamorous goddess (generally I’m very low maintenance, ponytail-and-done kind of girl) and I certainly think I came close to looking like one too 😊 She was also very focused on making sure that I was happy with what she did, asking several times in several different ways. Definitely you will have no problems with Erin doing what she wants, rather than what you want!
She was super flexible and straightforward when it came to logistics – she knew exactly how much time to allot for each bridesmaid, and for the bride, and she built in extra time in case anything came up. We all appreciated her honesty when it came to hair types and styles (let’s do something a little looser than this, since you have thicker hair etc) and it was crazy that she was able to run through 6 ladies in a matter of hours. Erin is a pro and the worst part of my wedding was waking up the next day realizing that I didn’t get to keep her to do my hair EVERY morning!!!
One of my priorities for my wedding day was to find amazing hair and makeup people. I was willing to go through as many trials as it took to find the perfect match! The style of Er...
in's photos online were very similar to the look I had in mind. When we met for my trial, she exceeded my expectations. Not only was she extremely professional, with a very warm demeanor, but clearly very talented. While she was very thorough, you could also tell how experienced she was as everything she did seemed to come so natural to her. Shortly thereafter, I asked Erin to do hair for myself and my entire wedding party - 8 bridesmaids, MOB, MOG, and flower girl! Erin was completely comfortable with handling a party of this size and arranged for a trusted colleague to join her. I received so many compliments on my wedding day about my hair. I feel so fortunate to have found Erin and would highly recommend her to anyone!
I fell in love with Erin from the moment I met her at my trial! She is kind, calm, & warm, exactly the type of person you want to be around on your wedding day. Erin understood me ...
and the look I was going for immediately, but we also played with a lot of different styles at my trial. This was really fun, and allowed me to see what Erin can do, which is basically anything and everything!
I couldn't have been happier with how my hair turned out on my wedding day! It was everything I imagined it could be. Erin is truly so talented and versatile—I can't recommend her enough! Thank you, Erin, for completing my look and being a part of such a magical day. I would choose you again and again!
Being in the Entertainment Industry, my Hair and Makeup for my Wedding Day was incredibly important to me. I had a specific look I was going for, Old Hollywood Glam, and Erin went...
above and beyond to give me exactly what I wanted. My hair was perfect! I loved it, as did everyone else. Erin also did my sister's hair along with a few others in my wedding party, and they all loved their hair as well. Erin has a great energy and made my hair one less thing I had to stress about on my big day :) I highly recommend her!
Erin did my hair and my mom and sisters' hair for my wedding and she was absolutely amazing. I loved the way my hair turned out--it was exactly what I wanted. I did a trial with ...
Erin and she really went above and beyond and showed me a lot of different options so that I could decide on the look I wanted. And Erin was wonderful with my family as well--she listened to what each of them wanted and they loved the results. Erin was also just a pleasure to work with and we really enjoyed the entire process!
Erin made my wedding hairstyle a dream come true! It was everything I could've imagined and more. She is so unbelievably sweet and friendly , I was so comfortable to being around h...
er (which you need to be comfortable since its one of the most stressful times of your life)! Erin is so unbelievably talented, you truly are working with an artist in every aspect of the word. My husband is a barber and when he sees all the work she's done and continues to do, he is so impressed by her work and raw talent. She will be honest with you on what style she thinks would work best for you, or even to help enhance the one you already had in mind. As soon as we met for my wedding trial, I knew she was the one. I have made an awesome friend in Erin and plan on keeping in touch with her! Hopefully I have some fancy occasion to go to soon so she can doll me up again! :) Love ya!
Erin is incredibly talented and an absolute dream to work with. She has tremendous experience which is evident in her work. Erin is so nice and an incredible listener. She will go ...
out of her way to make sure you are happy with your hair style and achieve the look you want. In addition to her skills, Erin is immensely knowledgable and will suggest hair care, styles, and techniques that complement your hair type and features to make sure you are looking your best. Working with Erin is an eye opening experience, she is simply the best!!!
From the first time I reached out to Erin, she made my hair the easiest detail of my wedding. She was so professional, sweet and friendly. She is so talented and was able do anyth...
ing, so it was difficult for me to decide on a look. Erin took the time during our trials to ensure we got the exact style I was envisioning. She made the morning of my wedding fun and stress-free. I can not wait to have another event to call on Erin for!
I've worked with Erin on countless photo shoots and have successfully refereed her for weddings. Everyone is always beaming about her work! Its impeccable and flawless. I rave so m...
uch about her not only because of her wonderful work but because of her good heart. She's incredibly kind, patient, and always early! I know I can count on her in any styling situation.
Erin was such a pleasure to work with. I have very fine hair so I was nervous about how styling my hair would turn out from the beginning. I was so fortunate I had Erin to help m...
e through the process. She went above and beyond my expectations. The months leading up to the wedding she helped me select a hairstyle and guided me through purchasing the right hair extensions. She even offered to go to the store with me and pick them out! Not only did she give me the exact hairstyle (simple, elegant, waves) I was looking for but I have a sensitive scalp and I really appreciated how gentle she was when working with my hair. This was the first time I had used hair extensions and Erin knew exactly what she was doing and they blended in naturally with my hair and I didn't even feel them. It was a VERY windy day and my hair was still curled at the end of the night. I can't say enough wonderful things about Erin!
Everything went great! Planning a NY wedding from Nebraska comes with its own challenges. As a hairstylist myself, one of my biggest fears was not liking my hair. Erin went out o...
f her way to make sure my hair was flawless and my day perfect!! From all of the pictures, to jewelry recommendations, and countless emails she went above and beyond making me feel so comfortable and asking the right kind of questions. We never did a trial run-through, but I had complete trust in her talent and I knew I was in good hands!
My hair was absolutely stunning! I have never felt more elegant in my life. Erin has a strong attention to detail and is truly a master of her craft! Being a stylist, I know there are ways to cut corners with dealing with a head of hair like mine. Erin took her time, prepped and curled every hair and was so prepared. The updo stayed perfectly the entire night and didn't fall at all! Everyone wanted to know who did my hair! My groom was especially pleased, said I was beautiful and was so happy I loved my hair too!
I must say, It was so convenient having her come to where I was getting ready on my big day. One less stressor! She was of course professional, but with a very warm personality and was extremely down to earth. I felt like she fit right in with my family! A fellow sister in the beauty industry, one of the biggest highlights of the day was talking hair together...Someone who speaks my language! Lol
Above all, Erin has a strong sense of fashion and her creativity is unmatched! If you're needing a style for any occasion, don't pass up the opportunity of having Erin. She's crazy talented and she is worth it!!!!
Thank you so much for everything!!

Erin designed the perfect hairstyle for my wedding day. I couldn't decide if I wanted my hair to be straight or curly and she settled on a wavy up-do with a side bun that photograp...
hed and held up so well. It looked glamorous and effortless and I absolutely loved it.
I've known Erin for a few years now; I first discovered her when she gave me the best blowout. She's intuitive, kind and very talented -- a combination hard to come by in a stylist...
. From that point on, I knew I could trust her with my wedding. And she definitely came through; she's trustworthy, dependable and made me look gorgeous! She went above and beyond to make sure I looked and felt my best. And it was truly a pleasure having her around on such a hectic day; she kept me calm and laughing. I felt like I not only had an amazing hair dresser with me, but a trustworthy friend. I couldn't recommend her more.
