Book Your Look

Only four days before my wedding I realized I was short-​handed to have our mom’s hair & make-​up done. Laramie was able to quickly set us up with a nearby artist at the last minute. Angela showed up on time, and made our moms feel super glamorous! It was definitely one less thing to worry about on our big day.

Laramie, the owner of Book Your Look, is exceedingly helpful. I had a lot of questions and some worries about my wedding hair, and she was incredibly understanding and attentive. Wedding hair came out looking amazing, and even better was the wedding-​day makeup. My makeup artist was Laura K., who is very talented and I really recommend her. My makeup totally held up and looked great all night, and I got tons of compliments on it. My bridesmaids and my mother looked amazing too. Totally happy with Laura K’s work! Thank you!!!

I cannot recommend Laramie Glen highly enough. I first met her when she did my makeup for a magazine photo shoot, and I was so taken with her skills (she made me look gorgeous!) that I later hired her to come to my house and help two friends and me go through our makeup kits and toss what we don’t need/​what doesn’t work, etc., and give us personalized tips. We were all so impressed: Laramie is friendly, professional, knowledgable, gentle, and she taught us a ton. It feels *amazing* to be rid of all that old junk I’d been carrying around, and know that every single thing I’m using on my face is the right thing for me. I will definitely use BYL again!

Laramie and the makeup artist he sent, Gabe Almodovar, played a large role in the success of my band’s first videotaped performance last week! Gabe pulled my whole look together and made me feel so comfortable. Will definitely use book your look again!

I used Book Your Look for a makeup lesson and hair lesson for my wedding. My artist Candace was awesome!!! We had a lot of fun. She was really generous with teaching me how to do things, used my own stuff, and suggested other products I should buy. I learned a lot!

I don’t even have the words to express how wonderful BYL is! My experience with them was beyond perfect. The founder of BYL, Laramie, did my makeup for my wedding, and I couldn’t be happier!!! If she represents the type of stylist you will find on BYL, then you should 100% use this company because you are going to find the best of the best, and you are going to be ecstatic about the results. Not only are BYL stylists talented, they are warm, fun-​spirited, engaging and everything in between. These stylists aren’t your average stylist, they really are professionals who work in the field, and know how to make you look your very best. My stylist (The BYL founder — Laramie) worked with me so carefully at both of our makeup trials to give me exactly the look I wanted. I described the look I was going for, and she was able to read my mind and create the makeup look of my dreams! In between our trials, she sent me makeup & skincare tips and answered any questions I had. She also made me feel so confident and excited about looking beautiful at my wedding when I was having doubts. On the day of my wedding, she spent extra time with me at the end, and left me a little kit and instructions so I could touch myself up. Everyone raved about my makeup and are ready to use BYL because they are so impressed. Highly highly recommend!

My niece got married this past Sunday morning. A week before the event, our stylist had an emergency and needed to cancel. I receive a recommendation for Book Your Look, and began communicating with Laramie Glen via email. I needed a make up person to begin at 5:15 in the morning on a Sunday, and a hair stylist to begin at 6:00am. She got me two amazing women within two days. The women were both on time, and both very professional. They understood that my daughter and I had different needs regarding our make up preferences and accommodated them. My daughter had a pinterest picture of how she wanted her hair done and the stylist was able to copy it, to my daughters satisfaction. The make up and hair remained perfect all day. I would definitely use Laramie again.

My experience with BYL for booking hair and makeup for my baby shower was wonderful and Melinda was a doll.
She was prompt, understood my needs and executed them perfectly. She checked in periodically to make sure she was going in the right direction with both hair and makeup which I appreciated.
Everyone told me I looked beautiful!

We loved our lesson and Candace was awesome! She’s so easy and approachable — she makes everyone feel special. There was a lot of ‘oh wow’ and ‘really, I didn’t know that!’ My favorite part was learning that most of the make-​up I’ve purchased is really for the complexion of an Asian or Middle Eastern woman! I need a total re-​vamp of my make-​up bag and Candace is definitely going to help me with that. I would absolutely recommend this to friends and colleagues.

I’ve used BYL many times to book an incredible Make Up artist. Often, I have a last minute shoot come up and they always come to the plate. The founder of BYL, Laramie, is my personal favorite. She’s attentive, professional, and a wonderful partner. Did I mention she’s also an amazing make up artist! I highly recommend Book Your Look for any make up needs: on set, for events, or a night out on the town.

I needed an MUA for a job at the last minute and I was referred to Book Your Look, who provided me the with wonderful Norah for a day. The system was easy to use and the service was beyond flawless! Norah rocked it out and followed mine and the client’s direction to a tee, and provided some of the most beautiful looks for each model. I also frequently use Laramie as my go to MUA for big jobs and she as well provides high end glam! I highly recommend Book Your Look for all your beauty needs!

I hired Laramie at Book Your Look for our wedding this March — they hit it right out of the park! I never got so many compliments and the photos are INCREDIBLE! Seriously we are thrilled with how the makeup came out (and thanks for fixing my last minute eyelash mishap)! I took the makeup loot bag on honeymoon and used the colors for the trip, great products. My husband also really appreciated her touch ups.

I am an artist on BYL and trust me, everyone on the site is the best at what they do and we take great pride in our craft. The selection process is 100% thorough.

A great resource for booking artists not only for their talent but for their personalities. All of the artists are good people, no divas! I recommend them to all of our brides and to anyone asking me for recommendations. The website makes it so easy to book yourself, with varying budgets, all of them are top quality, regardless!

Book Your Look is THE best way to book a makeup artist or hairstylist. Instead of researching across the web and through word-​of-​mouth, you can access a network of super-​talented, industry pros and see exactly WHO is available when you need someone. No more emailing around and waiting to hear back. Need someone next Saturday at 11am. Boom. There they are.
As one of the artists on Book Your Look, I know first hand the selection process is very thorough. You can rest assured you will be booking someone you can trust. If you don’t believe me, look up any us individually up on Unilocal (I’m Morgan Gates Makeup Artist) and see for yourself! Happy artists = happy clients! And vice versa!
