Shelly,
I wanted to follow up to again to thank you for doing such a magnificent job
on my hair, as well as on my mom's hair and makeup. We looked gorgeous for
hours - despite the wind on the beach! I'm still amazed at how you listened
to me give an admittedly vague description of what I had in mind, and
whipped it up so efficiently while capturing exactly the romantic and
relaxed feel of what I had in mind. You're a true professional.
Attached is a photo taken by our photographer Joanna Tano of my hair after
we'd been on the beach for a while and after I'd removed the veil. I still
marvel at how well it held up. :)
Take care!

| Hi
Shelly!
I wanted to
thank you again for doing such a beautiful job on my hair
and makeup. I was so very pleased with the way I looked,
Aaron was too! It wasn't too overboard, it was just right
- which was important to me since I'm so simple and not
used to wearing much makeup. I loved my hair and the flowers
you put in it - I have had numerous complements already.
The flowers were beautiful and matched perfectly with our
flower leis!
Take care,
Aaron & Abby

Hi Shelly!
Just wanted to write an email to express our gratitude
for everything you did to assist us with our wedding.
It was such a beautiful day and the setting was amazing.
You did such an excellent job and made it so easy for
us to just focus on getting married and enjoy the special
moments in our day. I cannot even begin to express how
perfect the day went. I have never felt so beautiful as
I did on that day and I give all that credit to you.
We appreciate
all the time you took to email us, talk to us on the phone
and make sure all the details were perfect. I would recommend
anyone use your services for their wedding.
Thank you so
much.for everything!

We thought it
would be a bit hard, planning a wedding on Maui, when we
lived in Norway, but we were wrong . . . Shelly . . . is
the best hairdresser I have ever met. She made me feel like
a princess on my big day. Our wedding pictures turned out
great. We have gotten so many complements for them back
in Norway
Best regards

I will definitely
give you a raving review - in fact, several girls already
asked who did my hair and I told them you did. You did a
great job - it lasted all night and the next day too! Jennifer

Aloha Shelly,
Thank you so much for
making me a beautiful bride. My mom and I were very
pleased with your work. Not only had you done a great
job on designing my hair style (without prior hair trial)
and makeup, you were at my wedding site on time and
well prepared.
My mom was worried
that you would put too much makeup on me, so she was
there watching you. It turned out that you captured
my facial features so well with the right color and
right amount of the makeup. It rained during my wedding
reception, but my hair, hair flowers and makeup were
still beautiful. I almost wanted to stay up all night
because I did not want to remove my beautiful hair-do
and makeup. My husband and I thank you for making our
day perfect.
If I may add that your
quick and detailed responses to my emails before arriving
to Maui made the nervous bride like me feel so relieved.
Mahalo!!!

I just got my photos
back, and Jason and I are so pleased. Thank you so much
for making me feel like a princess on one of the most
special days of my life. You were right about the makeup
too, it looked awesome in the photos. And, everyone
was so impressed with my hair. I don't think my hair
has ever looked so good. You truly are an artist! Thanks
again Shelly!

Shelley -
As promised, here are some photos from our wedding. I
just wanted to say thank you again for the wonderful job
you did. I was so incredibly happy with my hair and make-up
and did not want to go to sleep on our wedding night.
I cannot tell you how many compliments I have received
and Jason just loved everything! I was incrediblynervous
when you showed up in my room and you did a great job
calming my nerves. I felt like a Princess that day and
a big part of that was my wonderful hair and make-up!
Thanks again!

Aloha Shelly,
As promised, here are some photos of the beautiful hairdo
you set for me for my wedding. Thank you so much for all
your suggestions as I had so many choices to choose from.
My fiance and I were VERY pleased with the look and we
were able to compromise on the half up half down look.
It was great working with you that day and I will be sure
to recommend you to others.
Mahalo,
Jackie

"We all wanted to thank you so
very much. Not only did each and everyone of us feel more
beautiful then we have before, but you made it fun and
relaxing. Being the bride, I was very skeptical of getting
my makeup done. I was scared that after getting my make-up
done I might not look like myself. Not only did you make
sure I still looked like "me" you also enhanced
my good features. My husband loved it and he hates make-up.Thank
you very much. . . "
--Love, Carrie

"I wanted to thank you
so much for being a part of our special double wedding. Because
of you I felt so beautiful on our special day. You knew how
nervous I was, yet you put my mind at ease and worked your
magic. My husband still talks about how beautiful my make
up was that day. In fact now, he begs me to make my eyes look
"smokey" as they did on our wedding day.(of course
I can't even come close to making it look that way!) You are
an incredible make-up and hair artist. I felt natural and
beautiful thanks to you! I went on the website and saw that
you had put up a picture of Galen and I, that was so sweet.
Again, I can't thank you enough for how you made me look on
the most important day of my life. Thanks Shelly!"

"Dear Shelly,
Please find attached a picture from our wedding on July 26th. Thank you
for doing my hair and make-up on this special day. I love the way you
made me look special and not "made up". I have received numerous
compliments on how great my hair and make-up looked. I had a great time
getting ready with you.
Thanks again,
Heidi |

I just wanted to thank for doing an amazing job on both my hair and my
makeup. I felt beautiful from 6:00 am to the time I went to sleep, as a
bride should! Let me tell you, the weather put my hair to the test! It
was incredibly windy throughout the ceremony and during photos after, yet I
still looked amazing all through our reception. My maid of honor and mother
also loved their hair and received many compliments. Not only did you do a
great job of understanding the styles we wanted, but you made my morning
fun
and relaxing. Thanks again for helping to make my wedding day exactly what
I dreamed it would be!
Hi Shelly
Thank you so much for a lovely job on the makeup and hair. Talk about
a one woman walking beauty shop. That's you. We all so much
appreciated your skill with makeup, but equally your attitude of
wishing to please the client. "Good is not what I want to hear. What
do we need to do to make it great? And perfect is even better." It
is apparent you love your work. The girls all appreciated how natural
they looked, and Gabrielle's mother was struck by her own daughter's
beauty. That said, her own wedding may be the next and last time we
see her in makeup. (She is the "wild one.") It is her photos I am
sending along, and she is a television producer, so though these are
not professional, they are very good for an amateur photographer. I
hope there are some you can use on your website, since that had been
your request in seeking photos.
Again, it was great working with you, and you are wonderful at your
job, which I think is not so much a job, but more a passion. Your
artistry shows in your work, and your passion makes it all the more
fulfilling for you and fun for the client to work with you.
We loved spending time with you and coming out looking more beautiful
for it.
Best Regards,
Quel Cassidy
