Blush & Braids Beauty Bar are true professionals! Katie and Kat helped us feel absolutely fabulous, even in a rustic setting surrounded by trees and ferns. We actually put their work to the test with a sunset portrait session in Mount Rainier NP the evening before our wedding. We hiked about 3 miles for our photos,…
Used BBBB for my wedding, and they were amazing! Our artists were all super kind and very efficient! The entire party got compliments all day for hair and makeup, and they were very reasonably priced as well! As the bride I did rental extensions as well, and they matched PERFECTLY
I had Symone from Blush & Braids Beauty Bar do makeup for my wedding, and she did a fantastic job! Everyone who had makeup done looked amazing, and it lasted really well throughout the day.

The team at Blush and Braids was so great to work with for my wedding! Everyone looked stunning! I was very nervous about hair and makeup as someone who rarely does either, and they all made me so comfortable throughout the whole process. I’ll be recommending their services to all the brides in my life 💞
Katie H did my makeup for my engagement shoot. She was great to work with! She was professional, timely and listened to what I wanted and also gave great recommendations. I was very happy with my experience.
Where to even begin... My best friend hired Blush & Braids two years ago for her wedding and did the bridal party's hair and makeup. I was blown away by how perfect, natural, and long lasting both services were! Obviously when I got engaged and secured a wedding date, they were the first people I reached out to!…
I used blush and braids beauty bar (Washington location) for my wedding and was more than thrilled with not only the wedding day looks, but their customer service is top notch! My first trial did not go well for a few reasons which I won’t get into, what mattered is how they handled the situation and responded. I…
Beyond thrilled that I worked with Blush and Braids Beauty Bar for my wedding. Sarah and team had been MU & Hair for my best friend's wedding and I had the pleasure of working with them as a wedding coordinator as well.

Mercedes was the star of the show in our hair and make-up pre-wedding. She was able to deal with all different types of hair textures and skin tones and really made everyone feel beautiful. The whole team was on time, lovely to be around, and made our wedding party look gorgeous. The team flawlessly dealt with last…
Sarah W. is not only a sweetheart, but a magician!!! I was lucky enough to not only book makeup services for my wedding day, but Sarah was also available to do my bridal trial for my bridal shower. She asked great questions and really got to see my vision on how I wanted to look on my big day, was able to make any…
I am super grateful to Sarah, who did my bridal wedding makeup. I have an extremely sensitive skin allergy that dozens of other makeup artists in the area refused to accommodate, but Sarah was able to provide me a trial before fully paying for services to make sure I wouldn't have an allergic reaction. My husband…
