Katie Wash and her glam team came through for us in a pinch. With 16 people needing hair and makeup for our wedding (double the brides, double the bridesmaids!), we were in such good hands with this team. The stylists were so professional, nice, and seem like genuinely good, cool people. Not only were KW and her team welcoming to two brides, they made it seem so normal. The stylists nailed our bridal looks and everyone in our wedding parties. Cannot recommend them enough!
Haven’t had my hair done in about 3 years because I had a bad experience last time and I have really bad anxiety in public places, but this was so welcoming and comfortable! Everyone was so friendly super helpful! Asked exactly what I wanted to have done and did exactly that! Sarah is amazing and I couldnt love my hair more. It was an amazing experience and she is an Amazing stylist who just wants to make you feel beautiful and do exactly what you want to your hair!
Katie was absolutely wonderful to work with and such a talented hair artist! I recently collaborated with her on a styled shoot, and she created a look that was beautiful, polished, and perfectly complemented the overall vision. Her attention to detail and ability to create a style that photographed so effortlessly truly stood out.
Beyond her talent, Katie was incredibly professional, organized, and a calming presence throughout the day. She worked efficiently while still being thoughtful and attentive to every detail, and she collaborated seamlessly with the vendor team to keep everything running smoothly.
