That time we were on TLC...

Don't try to deny it. It is part of our womanly right to take a personal beauty day here and there. On said day, you stay in your pajamas all day (possibly changing into nicer pajamas or adding a sports bra if you are expecting the nice delivery man with more food), eat whatever you want, and watch marathon episodes of Say Yes to the Dress. Do not be ashamed! Relish in the moment. Ladybird, it's your special day!

We could not believe our luck when we met Rachel. Her wedding was being featured on Say Yes to the Dress and Rock the Reception on TLC. She had searched and searched for the perfect beauty team for her wedding. She had to be camera ready while maintaining her bridal glow.

Enter PRIMP!

The wedding took place in sound studios in Brooklyn, between movie sets and movie stars. Her husband even proposed during the filming of the movie Sex and the City, where she was background in a scene. (Swoon!) We had a blast with Rachel and her party, hung around through the reception to make sure everyone stayed picture perfect, and got to be a part of two of our guiltiest pleasure shows!

On your next personal beauty day, if they are showing a Say Yes to the Dress marathon, or revisiting Rock the Reception, look real close to see who is holding the hair spray and makeup brush... it might just be us!

Our Smokin' Little Kitten, Lauren

Here are more pictures from our Mad Men inspired bride, Lauren. We had so much fun with Lauren and her party. The 60's proved to be a beautiful, fun, sexy inspiration!

PRIMP for all ages!

Don't forget about the youngest members of your wedding party! They often find the wedding festivities just as exciting as the adults... maybe even more exciting!

We specialize in age appropriate, durable, sweet and sassy hairstyles for all ages. Along with the 'do, we will throw on a light blush, a sweep of shimmer, and some lip gloss, and you have your very own PRIMPed princess!

PRIMP styles for younger ladies are also perfect for parties, dances, recitals, picture day, grandma's visit, or any other occasion where a little extra sparkle goes a long way!

The 'Katniss Braid' survived a playdate, a night of sleep, playing catch, and going to the theater to watch The Hunger Games. It is easy to maintain, adorable, and comfortable.

This sweet twist would be perfect for everyday or special events. Easy and beautiful!

PRIMP loves working with young ladies. They are the most fun! Remember to include them in your celebration. Those memories will be with them forever.

PRIMP also provides services for Beauty Parties. Having a Princess Party? A Fairy Party? A Rock Star Party? Hunger Games? Harry Potter? Mad Men (for the young at heart)? Anything you can imagine, we can realize! Take your theme party to the next level with PRIMP!

Sweet Words from a Sweet Lady!

We had the best time PRIMPing Jenn and her wedding party. It was nonstop laughter, naughty jokes, and easy fun. We could not have asked for a more beautiful, fun, adorably sweet group of women (and man!). As you can see, Jenn glows. Inside and out!

From Jenn:

There aren't words to describe how fortunate I feel to have found Erin and Jess. They were incredible to work with from the very start - responsive, professional, gifted, adorable, and hilarious. I hadn't spent very much time thinking about my hair and makeup, so I showed up two days before my wedding and asked them to make me look good. They did exactly that -- I've never looked and felt so great. And that's saying something because I was a bit of a basketcase when they showed up the day of the wedding. They got right to work and transformed the day. My bridesmaids also did hair and makeup and wouldn't stop talking about how much they loved both of their looks. So thank you again, ladies. I will continue to thank you forever for making me look and feel the part and for keeping us all laughing that afternoon. I wanted to keep you around for the rest of the evening. :)

Hugs,

Jenn

Carly and her family

More times than not, we end up feeling like great friends with our clients. Carly was a beautiful bride with whom we immediately fell in love!

We enjoyed PRIMPing Carly, her bridesmaid sisters, her mother, as well as the grooms mother, and her beautiful niece flowergirl. Sometimes the youngest members in the party are the ones who have the most fun!

Hi Erin & Jess!

I hope you had a very Merry Christmas and are looking forward to the New Year!

Swingin' 60's Sex Kitten

A theme for a wedding can be really fun. Lauren and her beautiful bridesmaids went with 60's Mad Men inspired looks. They all looked AMAZING! And we had such a blast mixing vintage style with modern sophistication. The results were stunning. More pictures to come!

Hey Erin & Jess,

Now that all the fun is over, I can finally properly thank you guys for the amazing work you did making me & my girls pretty for my big day! First of all, let me say we all looked beautiful. I was so happy that everyone looked different from each other, while they still had a vintage vibe tied in just like we wanted. All of my guests complimented me, which was expected, I am the bride after all. But, what I didn't expect was how many compliments I got on my beautiful bridesmaids! Having you guys over the morning of the wedding was just like having a couple of girlfriends come over and get you ready for a big date. You were fun, and we were all really comfortable with you, which is a really big deal on such a nerve wracking occasion. Not only that, but we were able to communicate what we wanted with you really easily, and I think everyone felt like you got each look exactly right. And, I have to mention your patience and determination to get the look exactly right, which is so important to a bride. We had a blast working with you, felt super-pretty, and celebrated the night looking gorgeous. I'm definitely passing your names.

Hugs,

Lauren

Lauren's Ladies

Occasionally, a bride feels most comfortable in the hands of her usual stylist, mother, aunt, or friend who has offered to get her ready for the big day. We can still help! Booking PRIMP is a great gift to your bridal party, mothers, or friends to say 'thank you for being a part of my special day' and 'I love you'. We are affordable, fun, and able to give everyone the look they want to feel their most beautiful.

Lauren had a large party. She, along with her mother and sisters, used their usual stylist, but she called us to come PRIMP her bridesmaids. We had a wonderful time working with each unique spirited woman. They all looked beautiful!

Here are some candid shots. We can't wait to see the professional photographs!

Hey

Thanks again for everything! All the girls were soo pleased with their hair and makeup. Here are two pics that were really cute!!
