Hair & Makeup Artist NASHVILLe

"Omg Caitlin is an amazing hairstylist and makeup artist! If I can give her a million stars, definitely would! I showed her my inspo pic from Pinterest and she nailed the look to the T! Her bridal makeup application was perfect! It didn't feel heavy or caked on at all! It's all very long lasting and sweat proof! You can definitely go hiking and none of it will melt off your face even with 100% humidity and light rain drizzle. Her personality just makes the whole vibe and experience even more enjoyable. If you haven't book with her yet, you need to do it now! I will definitely be booking with Caitlin for all future events."

Caitlin did my hair and makeup for my wedding and did PHENOMINAL! She was so speedy and gentle, that I didn't realize she had already finished putting in my extensions AND braiding my hair. She took my reference photo for makeup and copied it even better than the photo. She also gave me amazing skin care advice for before the wedding, to help my makeup apply even better. I've never felt prettier than I did that day, and I have her to thank for that. Definitely recommend her to anyone!

"My experience with Caitlin has been nothing short of phenomenal! I guarantee she will put a smile on your face when you open your eyes and see your hair and makeup just like how I experienced! She is very responsive any time I’ve ever reached out to her to schedule an appointment. She is super sweet and really easy to talk to during your session. She has done my makeup while we lived in Hawaii. I’m really sad she’s leaving but I know the community of Nashville is getting a great makeup & hair stylist for any special event you might need to attend or get dressed up for!!!"

I had the privilege of having Caitlin do the hair and makeup for my wedding. She was not only insanely talented, but incredibly nice as well.She listened to exactly what I was envisioning for myself and for my bridesmaids, and was able to make it come to life!She took her time, yet was so efficient with making sure each person was done on time. I cannot recommend her enough! She is amazing!

Caitlin is truly the best there is. From my hair and makeup trial for my wedding to the wedding day, she truly felt like a friend. I received so many compliments from everyone about my hair and makeup. After hours of dancing the night away, my hair and makeup looked completely fresh. I am in awe of how professional and perfect her services were, but also how kind and caring she is. I cannot recommend her enough. She is the best of the best.

"I love the work that Caitlin did for my hair & makeup! She was kind, caring & precise. She took her time and listened to what I asked for with both hair & makeup & I could not be more pleased with the final results. I 100% recommend booking with Caitlin!"

"Caitlin was amazing! She perfectly executed my vision even after I made some changes the day of. She was on time and FAST. She even had enough time to fit in a few extras that weren't on the original schedule. She was extremely responsive and easy to book with. I would recommend her 10/10 times to anyone looking for a wedding day or formal hair stylist!

"Caitlin is Excellent! Easy to communicate with and very responsive. She is extremely professional and knowledgeable, but most importantly she is a highly skilled makeup artist. Made my makeup and skin look flawless, and received so many compliments!!! Can’t imagine going to any other makeup artist other than her! She is also double-hatted as a hairstylist and gave me the sleekest Hailey Bieber Bun EVER and I did not want to take it out!"

"I had the pleasure of meeting miss Cait for the first time when she asked me to photograph her giveaway! Not only does she have unquestionable talent with hair and makeup, she is extremely sweet, professional, and takes her complete time to make sure her craft exceeds all expectations!!! I'm happy we continue to work together professionally and remain great friends!"

"Caitlin is a true professional! She did an amazing job and I felt so beautiful after she did her magic. I loved how convenient it was to have hair and make-up done at my house before the event. She was so friendly and easily to coordinate with. I highly recommend her services!"

"Caitlin is the absolute best! She is so professional at her craft, and personable in her way to connect with you when you are in her chair. She makes you feel like you have been friends for forever, all while making you feel beautiful with her skill. She goes above and beyond for her clients and listens very well. She is professional, punctual, and passionate. You won't regret using her for your hair and makeup needs!"

"Caitlin is super sweet and super down to earth. I needed hairdo and makeup for a military ball, many wives recommended her, so I reach out and she quickly responded and I was able to book with her about a month in advance. I was excited since she was coming to my home which was so convenient for me. She was gentle and easy to talk to. She was very professional. I would definitely hire her again. I was very happy and loved how everything turned."

How far in advance are you able to book?

What is your cancellation policy? Reschedule policy?

How do I book you and what is your retainer?

Forms of payment you accept?

Can you match all skin tones?

Do you have a minimum? If so, what is it?

When is the final payment due?

How much time do you need in order to complete each service?

I am currently taking bookings for six months out at a time.

The retainer is non refundable, and non transferable. As long as I have an opening, we can reschedule. If an event is cancelled within a month of the final payments due date, a cancellation fee will apply. No refunds will be issued after the final payment has been made.

A signed contract and non-refundable thirty percent retainer officially books you onto my calendar.

Cash, Card, or Venmo.

Absolutely! I have extensive training and a professional makeup kit so I can match all skin tones/types and cater to your individual needs.

For Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, I have a minimum of 4 services. For example: Four services could be 4 Hair styles,  4 Makeup applications, or 2 Hair styles and 2 Makeup applications.

Final payment is due one month before the event. 

I prefer to have forty-five minutes per guest service, and an hour and fifteen minutes per bridal service. Some looks may take more or less time.
