Strange Artistry - Luxury Makeup & Hair by Kristin Mastrangelo 
Rating: 5.0 (27 reviews)
  • Team of 1
  • Serves Washington, VA

Let’s chat! I love chatting…it’s totally my favorite! I’m Kristin Mastrangelo, (go head, try it out…it’s easier than it looks), a makeup & hair artist who specializes in wedding, special event, & television artistry, spending most of my time trying to think of PC ways to avoid putting on “real” pants. I’m a wife of 15 years & momster of 4. Obsessed with heavy metal, tea, all black everything, horror movies all the time, a creature of the night. I hate being late. Personally, I believe everyone should be at least a little weird...normal is a setting on a dryer...so embrace you, be different, and do what you want.

I cannot say enough good things about Kristin! She did hair and makeup for myself, two bridesmaids, our flower girl, and styled my grandmother’s hair on the morning of my wedding. Despite an unexpected hiccup due to a wreck on the interstate, therefore delaying her arrival to the venue, she remained so professional. Her positivity was probably the only thing that kept me calm that morning! She expertly adjusted the schedule, prioritizing myself and my maid of honor so I was perfectly ready for my first look. Not only did she work efficiently, but the results were stunning! I felt more beautiful than I ever have in my life. She truly captured the vision I had for myself, my family, and my bridal party. Beyond her incredible talent, she brought so much joy and fun to our morning. Her humor and warmth added to the excitement and ease of the day. I will absolutely be going to her for any future formal events, and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a beauty professional who will make you feel gorgeous, confident, and completely cared for.

Rita and her team did a great job with the hair and makeup for my wedding in November 2024. She was very responsive during the booking process, everything was very clear and seamless. The trial went well and she made sure that I liked how everything looked. Everything on the day of the wedding looked as expected based on the trial. I hardly ever wear makeup and asked for a more natural look and it turned out perfect! I also have fine hair and was worried about having volume, but Rita was able to make my hair look thicker than it is. Both the hair and makeup lasted all night and still looked good after being done around 12pm. We had 6 people getting services and everything was done on time by Rita and her assistant, she provided a schedule so that I was able to let people know when they could arrive. I would recommend Rita to anyone looking for wedding hair and makeup services, she was a pleasure to work with. Thank you!

I can not rave enough about Joie. She did airbrush makeup and my hair for my wedding day. My makeup lasted all night and my lipstick did not budge.

I reached out to Aida because I had a photoshoot coming up and wanted my makeup done. She was able to accommodate the day and location.

I had the most amazing experience with Wendy’s team on my wedding day. From our first communication, they were incredibly responsive, organized, and attentive to every detail. Due to an incredible life surprise, we had to postpone our wedding. Lucky for me, they were available on our postponement date. Since day one, Wendy has been exceptionally kind, supportive, and understanding. I definitely dropped the ball on scheduling my trial, but Jinay made sure I got it done. She and Emely made me feel like my best self before the big day. There wasn’t a doubt in my mind that I chose the best team out there. They truly took the time to understand my vision and brought it to life beautifully — my hair and makeup were flawless, natural, and lasted perfectly through every moment of the day. Beyond their amazing skill and artistry, they were such a joy to be around. Their positive energy made the day so enjoyable and helped set the perfect tone. My bridal party and I all felt confident and radiant thanks to their work. I can’t recommend them highly enough to any bride looking for talented, reliable, and genuinely wonderful artists

I could not say enough positive things about Adorn Salon for wedding hair and makeup. They transformed me into a blonde barbie doll and I had guests saying weeks after the wedding that they were amazed out how my hair stayed so curled and my makeup stayed on so perfectly the entire night. I had a trial and completely changed my hair for the wedding day and Holly was super flexible with the change and did not mind. I had 12 bridesmaids who all had different hair colors/types and skin tones and they transformed every single one of them and they all looked incredible and were very happy with the final outcome. I will posts more photos once I get them from my photographer! Highly recommend and I can't wait to use them for haircuts/dyes in the future.

Sandra and her team were the absolute best! Sandra was so organized and easy to communicate with throughout the whole process. My bridesmaids and I all wanted a more natural makeup look and Sandra and her team achieved it perfectly. Everyone looked gorgeous and we were all so happy with our hair and makeup. The team was able to give everyone the hairstyles they envisioned and we couldn't have been happier with the results.

Bianca is incredibly talented and just the best! She did the makeup for my May 2024 Indian fusion wedding (both for my wedding day and my Sangeet), and I could not have felt more beautiful. Something that was incredibly important to me when deciding on a MUA was finding an artist that is well experienced with a variety of skin tones. Bianca absolutely killed it while doing a variety of different looks. Leading up to my wedding, I went to Bianca for a few facials. The actual experience of the facial was so relaxing, and my skin was so hydrated and glowing leading up to my wedding. After my wedding, I also asked Bianca if she could do a makeup class for me. She had made me feel truly so beautiful (but still like myself). The class made makeup approachable for someone who has very limited makeup experience. She was SO thorough afterwards in all the materials she sent me with instructions and products listed to be able to recreate the looks we went over. I cannot recommend Bianca enough for all of her services!!
