Did you work with a fantastic lady from Smart & Chic for your wedding or are you that you can recommend for me!? Just wanting my hair done by them but my BM's and FMIL and Mom and using them too.

I want my hair to be somewhat loose but up and it's very long... just looking for advice! Thanks all!! :)

    I'm having Cathi with Smart & Chic doing my hair and she is AMAZING. She's really good with long and curly hair and somehow knew what I was trying to say when I couldn't figure out myself what I didn't like about my trial. She's great at it and can't wait for her to do my hair on the big day!

    Amber Walker and Dee Dredge were the stylists for my wedding. Amber W did an amazing job on my hair - I gave her some vague adjectives to describe what I wanted and she went to town. Highly highly recommend her.

    We loved Amber B, but did not care much for Julie. Amber did an awesome job, but was also so much fun to work with. Julie was not very talkative and the hairdos she did seemed to need more frequent hairspray application. The makeup Julie didn't wow anybody, while Amber was truly an artist!

    I had Amber W and Dawn work on my BMs and MOG....Dawn is an absolute ANGEL and did amazing things with my girls' hair. One of my BMs had just cut her hair really short, and another has SUPER long straight hair, and the other two have really thick wavy hair. She worked on all of them as if each type of hair were her specialty, lol. She also stayed after my stylist left to help my mom fix her hair mess. Amber was more "git 'er done" and moved quickly, but efficiently, without much chit chat. She's got mad makeup skillz, and those that had their makeup done by her looked awesome the whole day.

    Smart and Chic really increased their prices starting in June!  I'm glad I locked in when I did because I think I have an editorial stylist which now costs $150 over the $75 for hair.  I suppose they deserve it though with all the awards and praise they get.  And you can still get cheaper hairstylists if thats what you want.  That was a sidenote, haha.

    I booked Amber W and Dawn after Bimbi and Beka's recommendations months ago - so glad I did before the price changes!!  Yikes, that's quite the increase!!

    My hair trial with Amber is on Friday, so excited!  Pics to come :)

    @Jenn! Be sure to post photos for sure!!! I'm very excited! At a wedding I was a part of the ladies from S&C told us that they were recently bought out!!

    I believe Spalon Montage bought them! This means many of the girls are changing JUST FYI TO ALL BRIDES WHO ARE GOING TO BOOK THEM. They will be mostly different girls. Their prices are also going up significantly because of this! Just some insider info... :)

    So glad I booked when I did too! :):)
