The Grateful Head

Lauren (hair), Erica (hair) and Alia (makeup) were amazing! I had a huge bridal party (11 bridesmaids, mom and me!) and everyone looked beautiful after a crazy jam packed morning.

I was such a pain in the ass to Lauren and she didn't care. I couldn't decide between up or down so she tried them all. Finally I decided up because my hair would annoy me. I didn't want it severe or all piled up on my head. She came up with a low bun of sorts. It was beautiful most importantly I was married during a north eastern and my hair stayed exactly how she left it until I took the pins out about 14 hours later . No one can do color like her either!

Lauren is the best she is amazing! I highly recommend her! My hair lasted all day and night in extreme heat. Thanks lauren!!

Used Lauren for my hair and Shab for my make-up. They are lovely, gifted ladies who are very professional and a pleasure to work with. They did a great job and I was very pleased on my wedding day

Lauren was AMAZING!!!! She was extremely easy to get in touch with and discuss different options for my hair. She made getting ready before the wedding easy and stress free. She truly works wonders!! My hair lasted the entire night (at a windy location). I would recommend her to anyone that will listen to me! :) thanks so much!!!!!!

Lauren and Shab were fantastic to work with! Everyone's hair and make up was perfect. I called about 20 different vendors and could not find anyone that offered a better price. They don't charge more for the Bride which is huge (most place charge $200 more for the bride) and charged less for my Grandma since she had such short hair. They were really fun to hang out with while we got ready as well. They are both very busy so if you don't get an email back from them right away, know that they will respond to you. These ladies are in high demand! I would highly recommend them and couldn't be happier with how everyone's hair and make up came out. Thank you again Lauren and Shab for making us all look so beautiful on my big day!

Lauren did an excellent job with my hair for my wedding. My hair is very curly and it came out amazing. I would highly recommend her.

I got married on June 11th and I was more than happy with the results. Lauren did a low side ponytail in curls and I got so many compliments on it. It held up throughout the day even in the humidity. She contributed to an amazing day. Thank you Lauren!

I could not be happier with the services provided by The Grateful Head. Lauren and Shab are professional, creative, and extremely talented. The two make an excellent pair, one complimenting the other both in personality and in style. They not only made my bridal party and I look amazing, but they also added a fun energy to the day that made for a relaxed environment. Leading up to the wedding they were easy to get in touch with and very accommodating. They both listened to my vision while offering suggestions to improve on my ideas. Lauren and Shab took care of a bridal party of 5, plus my mom and me. Everyone really looked gorgeous, my mom had never had an updo before (ever) and her hair looked awesome. She couldn't have been happier. The girls were taken care of in a very timely matter without losing any attention to detail. I referred my cousin to The Grateful Head for her wedding 4 months later and she had the same excellent experience. She, her brided maids and her mom truly looked gorgeous. I don't know what else a bride could ask for; a pair of talented/thoughtful individuals available to take calls, answer questions and provide a fun and calming feel on your wedding day while producing high quality work.

They worked with me to make my hair and makeup EXACTLY what I wanted and they came to me!

Lauren and Erica were absolutely amazing. My hair is usually difficult to work with yet you would never know it with the magic they worked. They were so friendly and made the morning of my wedding amazing and stress free! If I could give them 10 stars I would!

Lauren and Shab are AMAZING!!!!! They made my day completly stress free. It was such a pleasure to work with them. My bridal party and family were all taken care of. They were even able to do hair and make up for extra people that were at the house with us. We were all so happy with the results. My hair didnt fall and make up stayed all night long(9hours!)!!

The Grateful Head was fantastic for my wedding. They were extremely accomodating - they came right to my house so we didnt have to go to a salon and they came at the time that I asked. They made everyone in the wedding party feel comfortable and did everyones hair exactly as asked and if the person wanted anything different, they were more than happy to do it. It was a pleasure having them do my wedding party and I would recommend them to anyone! If you want to be satisfied with your hair, feel relaxed before the wedding, and have faith that you will come out looking beautiful and how you have always wished, go with The Grateful Head! I could be more satisfied!

Lauren was amazing on my special day! She did a fabulous job on my hair, my moms and some other friends and family and I just loved it! She is also very nice and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend her as a stylist for your special day.

Lauren and her team made the whole experience of getting beautified on my wedding day a memorable one. Relaxed yet in control, she was able to commandeer my wedding party of eight, plus myself, in the most efficient manner (which is no easy feat if you know my MIL)!! The hair, the makeup... we all came out looking goregous -- the Grateful Head comes with the highest recommendation from me!

I love, love, love Lauren and Shab. My trials were great and I knew right away I had to book them. My bridesmaids and I had a great time getting ready with them and I felt absolutely gorgeous the day of my wedding. Their prices were fair and their services were stellar. I'd recommend them beyond a shadow of a doubt.

Lauren & Shab did an amazing job on my and my bridesmaids' hair & makeup. They listen to what you want, will give input/opinion as to styles etc., and they do amazing work. They are absolutely flexible and will perfectly advise you as to what is needed to accomodate your wedding day schedule - they came to my home at 4am! We loved them so much that they'll be traveling 2 hours to make it to my MOH's wedding to do all of our hair & makeup again!! Would absolutely recommend them!

The service was perfect!
Lauren came to me at the beach house.
She did a phenomenal job with my hair.
She was pleasant to work with.
My make up was flawless.
The pictures don't lie!

PLUS, the hair and makeup was AFFORDABLE!

Lauren is the real thing! I am the luckiest to have had her do my hair on my wedding day. A joy to know. Sensitive and funny. And so talented to boot! I still get compliments (three years later)

Lauren was wonderful to work with; she not only provided professional service and beautiful work, she helped to keep me calm on my wedding day and that in itself is priceless. I recommend that any bride or anyone who wants to look beautiful work with Lauren for their event.

The Grateful Head is a wonderful vendor! Lauren is very professional and accommodatting! Since using Lauren's services for my own wedding in 2004, I have referred The Grateful Head to my aunts and cousins for three weddings, a prom and Lauren will be doing our hair for my brother's wedding next month! You will not be disappointed!

Lauren is an amazing hairstylist! She exudes creativity with her updo's and styling. Every client leaves her chair as a happy camper because she is also such a joy to be around!!!
