Isabella was amazing!! She made me feel so comfortable and truly listened to what I wanted.

Mikayla was so great! She made me feel so comfortable and heard for my trial and all of us had great hair for my wedding day! She was very easy going and flexible. She asked questions and checked in to make sure we were all getting the looks we wanted. We all got so many compliments! This hair will LAST, but is not too difficult to take down and brush out an updo. Amazing

From the hair and makeup trial to my wedding day, Mikayla and Alyssa did an exceptional job! They not only put me at ease, but also made me feel so confident and beautiful. They truly brought my vision for hair and makeup to life.
A beauty professional for a wedding is so much more than just the skill of hair styling and makeup (both of which they knocked out of the park!). It also requires attentiveness and kindness toward the bridal party, as well as promptness, cleanliness, and professionalism. Mikayla and Alyssa exceeded my expectations in every way. I couldn’t be happier with my choice and highly recommend White Carpet Bride!

Whitney CraigLocal Guide · 12 reviewsiTotal number of Google reviews Whitney has written across all businesses on Google Maps, not just this one.
I don't think I've ever felt more beautiful than I did after my appointment with Mikayla at White Carpet Bride . The entire experience was a dream. She was so kind and attentive, taking the time to genuinely listen and understand exactly what I wanted.
The level of knowledge here is incredible. Mikayla talked me through the products/brands they were using, explaining the ingredients and why they were the best choice for my skin/hair type. You can tell they truly care about the health of your hair and skin, not just the final look.
The end result was pure perfection. Mikayla worked magic on my eyes, making them stand out in a way I didn't think was possible. (bigger, brighter, and more open). And my hair! The gorgeous hollywood curls lasted all night and still looked amazing the next day. My hair is very thick typically does not hold curl but it curled well under Mikayla's skilled touch.
I felt so confident and gorgeous. Thank you, White Carpet Bride for not just making me look good, but for making me feel beautiful. I would recommend White Carpet Bride to anyone. Hands Down The Best Hair & Makeup Glam Team in KC!!!

Alyssa and her team were able to fit me in last minute for hair and make-up for some headshots for my company. Isabella who did my hair and make-up was lovely. As someone who personally does not like doing anything related to beauty/hair/make-up, Isabella made me feel comfortable and at ease. She was able to find a balance of enough make-up to be great for the photos, while still making me look like myself. I really appreciated their responsiveness and willingness to help. Highly recommend.

OH goodness thank you, Tiffany! Isabella is truly amazing and we are so thankful you loved her as much as we do.
In a world where people are quick to share negativity, we definitely consider it an honor when you take the time to spread kindness and positive feedback. So from the very bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU!!! Honored you chose us to be with you, sister.

Mikayla did my makeup before I had professional headshots done. I was originally trepidatious, as I didn't want a bridal look! Mikayla took *me* and made me better! The photos are fabulous- thanks so much!

Thank you , Maria! Mikayla does love to do a good branding shoot and we are so grateful for your kind words on such a positive experience. You were a dreamy client and we hope to glam you again!!

Today was the second time I’ve had my make up done by white carpet and they are second to NONE!
Mikayla did my makeup the first go around and it was stunning.
Isabella killed my dramatic full glam look today as well that I was going for and I cannot thank her enough.
