    Amazing work!

    Chantell was amazing to work with and very quick with her hands to get my hair to where we wanted it to be. She gave me a trial for wedding hair and we worked with pearls I was given as a gift. When we couldn’t make that work due to the length of the pearls, we worked up another style for engagement photos that day. I loved working her, I enjoyed her energy and getting to talk to her like we were best friends. I loved working with her and I think you will too.

    Amazing-5 Stars!!!!

    Illuminating Styles was an amazing choice for our wedding beauty needs. From the very first interaction, their communication was clear, concise, and respectful. The stylist, Chantell, was personable, polite, and made me feel special and beautiful the entire time she worked with me. The quality of their work was flawless - she truly helped make me look and feel perfect on our special day. Illuminating Styles was easy to work with and I highly recommend them to any couple looking for a talented, professional beauty team.

    Amazing Quality of Work

    I wanted to take a moment as a groom and write a kind word about Chantell. She did my now wife's hair for our wedding. My wife absolutely loved working with her! She was so kind, helpful and patient. I love my wife but during our planning process she was super nervous & at times very difficult to work with because of those nerves! Chantelle took soo much extra time and showed soo much patience and professionalism when meeting with us and helping my wife find the best look for her. On the wedding day itself, my wife sang her praises of how amazing she was to her and her bridesmaids. She even offered to help my wife as they struggled with a dress malfunction. My wife looked absolutely beautiful when she walked down the aisle it moved me to tears. Her hair looked amazing all day. We loved our time with Chantell soo much that we regularly recommend her on wedding groups and to friends. Thank you Chantell for being apart of our special day.

    DO NOT USE HER.

    Chantell did hair for some of our wedding party and relatives. The hair was fine, though some of the styles quickly fell out, were frizzy, or improperly done (my sister's braid, for example, had random loose pieces of hair at the bottom that were not included in the braid -- we had to have my bridal HMUA fix it). The biggest problem, though, was how rude and aggressive Chantell was about payment. We sent her the deposit and balance as soon as she asked prior the wedding, but then two extra people wanted services on the day of. In the 24 hours after my wedding, she sent me multiple messages asking for payment, called me as I was packing up at the venue to demand payment, came up to me and multiple family members AS WE WERE LEAVING OUR CEREMONY to ask for immediate payment, sent multiple Venmo requests and reminders, and finally, 48 hours after services, threatened legal action if I didn't pay her by noon the next day (despite me reassuring her multiple times prior that I would pay her as soon as I had a second). Not a single other wedding vendor behaved this way. So, here I am, one day after leaving our wedding venue, venmoing her 200 bucks and leaving this review to warn other brides that she will harass you until you pay her and adds huge amount of stress to your wedding. (Oh, she also showed up to the wrong house on the day of the wedding). During the hair services, she also literally shoved her venmo in my sister's face for her to pay 75 to add in extensions that my sister brought. My sister was so off-put, and didn't even have a second to think about it. So rude and unprofessional!!!
