Wow, Caitlin and Valerie Harrison are superstars! I don't think I have ever felt so gorgeous as I did on the days they did my airbrush makeup (my bachelorette and my wedding day). The tear-proof promise held up, as everything was still in place even after turning into a crying mess on the altar. They were right on time and finished earlier than I anticipated, which was a huge stress relief on such busy days. My girls, my mom and I looked incredible for the big day - natural but glamorous. They both fit right in with my bridal party, they felt more like friends than vendors as we all chit chatted while getting ready. I would absolutely recommend Caitlin and Valerie in a heartbeat!

Caitlin and her team were fabulous! I was hoping to work with Caitlin after she had already committed to a job in Beverly Hills that same weekend, but she was super flexible in trying to make something work! In the end, she had me work with two of her team members the day of my wedding, but she was there during my trial to make sure I was happy and comfortable with who I was working with. Caitlin is an absolute sweetheart, and I am so thankful!
Valerie did my hair and makeup, while her other team member, Ashley, did makeup for my sisters and mom. Airbrush makeup is the way to go, that's for sure! They all had a light touch and were very tasteful, and also were good at listening. Valerie is absolutely an up-do genius - we were working off a celebrity picture and what she had done for my trial - but she really outdid herself. I have never loved my hair so much! And she did an amazing job on the rest of my bridal party, too. We all felt like goddesses.
Thank you Caitlin, Ashley, and...

Caitlin is amazing. Before I found Caitlin, I had one hair trial with a stylist located in central mass and hated it. I needed a younger, fresh perspective and Caitlin was it. Caitlin was so accommodating. She did my trial on the same day as our engagement photos, so I got to make good use of her talent. Before the wedding she also met with my mom, who as mother of the bride, was more nervous than me. My mom came away loving her - although I am not sure who would not. On the big day, Caitlin and her sister made me and my bridal party feel gorgeous. The airbrush application is a must and clean soft look for makeup and hair was exactly my vision. I hope the brides in Massachusetts do not lose Caitlin to Beverly Hills year round.

Caitlin did an amazing job on my hair and make-up for my wedding. She came bright and early in the morning with such a positive and fun vibe, she had two assistant with her and they were awesome too. She made all the bridesmaids and my mother look gorgeous. Her hair styles are so detailed and intricate, each one was different. The air brush make-up is great and stayed on all day. I am so glad that I had Caitlin do my hair and make-up because she helped me to feel so pretty and confident. She is the best!!

I can not say enough about Caitlin! I first met her July of 2010 for my make-up trial and I knew from the second I walked into her front door that she was the one for me! I felt like I had known her my entire life; like she was already a close friend! At the trial she did the best job, I was speechless and people who know me know that that NEVER happens.
The day of the wedding she and her assistant showed up early and ready to work, and they had their work cut out for them! Originally, all of my bridesmaids and my mom wanted their hair done, and only four girls including my mom wanted their make up done. Once she started doing the make up every single girl changed their mind and wanted their make up done!! She was so wonderful and accommodating, she was able to do all 9 of us and never complained once! Every single girl came up to me after and raved about how wonderful Caitlin was, they all said that they felt like she was one of us!
Weddings are so stressful and the planning is so overwhelming and through all of my million changes Caitlin never had an ill word for me, she just went along with it. Out of all of my vendors Caitlin was by far my favorite! She was so real and so amazing, and to top it all off did the most amazing job ever!!!!!!!!
I had the most beautiful, amazing, and elegant venue, the Four Seasons Boston, and Caitlin made myself and every single one of my ladies feel like we lived up to the beauty of the venue.
All I can say is book Caitlin early!!!!!! Honestly, you will NOT be sorry, she is amazing and delivers. Caitlin is so tremendously gifted at her craft and you will not be let down!

Caitlin did an amazing job with my wedding day makeup and I couldn't have been happier! The airbrush makeup lasted ALL day and didn't budge once from my ceremony tears to the humidity and 85 degree weather we faced taking photos in the Public Garden! I would highly recommend her for any special event makeup because she will make you look fabulous. I woke up the next day looking exactly the same as the day before!

Caitlin was awesome to work with. We first did a hair and make-up trial at her apartment which went extremely well. She was a pleasure to work with and felt like an old friend. She even made me a margarita!
On the wedding day, Caitlin came to the hotel where everything was hosted and did a great job on the hair for the ladies in the wedding party. She got along great with everyone (everyone loved her!) and did a fantastic job. For my hair and make-up she really worked some magic. Both my hair and make-up were far better than I'd ever expected (even better than the trial, which I LOVED) and I felt so beautiful!! Not only that, the hair and make-up stayed in place all night! I couldn't have asked for a better stylist.
I would definitely recommend Caitlin to anyone. I hope I have another event that I can work with her again!

Caitlin Murphy did an unbelievable job on my hair and make-up for my wedding day!!! I cannot thank her enough for making me look so beautiful. Everyone raved about how I looked. Her air-brush make-up lasted ALL day! The only thing I had to re-apply was my lip gloss and some hair-spray, and I still looked fantastic at the end of the night. It did rain a bit while we were outside and my make-up and hair were not affected at all.
I wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted at my trial, so I showed her a picture of my dress, and she had a vision for my hair and make-up that worked incredibly well. All of my bridesmaids commented on how well my hair went with my dress.
My bridesmaids, my mom, and the mother of the groom also looked beautiful thanks to Caitlin and her assistants. My grandmother had her make-up done by Caitlin, and looked 20 years younger!
Caitlin is just as talented at hair as she is make-up, which is a rare find. She is expensive, but worth every penny. She charges less for the bride on the wedding day than many other top hair and make-up artists do; even though her trials may be pricey. She is admittedly not a computer person because she is an artist first and foremost, so she is sometimes slow to respond emails, but will get back to you.
There was one small miscommunication regarding another bride who booked her the same day as me. In the end it turned out not to be an issue because Caitlin did not have to do that bride, as well, and she was very apologetic about the mistake.
Caitlin is a very sweet girl, who is excellent at what she does, and I would very much recommend her. We hit it off and got along very well from the beginning. She will do an amazing job on your hair and make-up, and will make you feel relaxed and like a star on your wedding day!

Caitlin is amazing - I couldn't get over the makeup and hair not only for myself (the bride) but for all of the bridesmaids and moms. Everyone looked beautiful. She takes the time and really learns/understands the look you are going for. I HIGHLY recommend Caitliin to anyone looking for hair/makeup! The airbrush makeup makes you look flawless and the best part its sweatproof and waterproof, I woke up the next morning and my hair and makeup was still perfectly in place! She even did extensions and a cut/color for me! I can't say how happy I was with her services.

Such a great person and great stylist. I first met Caitlin when she did my make up for my friend's wedding and loved it. It's not easy finding a make up artist who knows how to do "Asian eyes." She was completely open to listening to what I wanted but also helped suggest ways to enhance my make up. My only hesitation with booking Caitlin was whether or not she could accurately do my hair the way I wanted it. I booked my hair trial with her 1 month out from the wedding day and she did a phenomenal job. I can't believe I even doubted her. She went to sculptural art school!
For my actual wedding, she was so fun to work with. All of my girls loved her and had such positive things to say about their hair and make up. She has an energy and enthusiasm that you cannot match with anyone else.

I'm so happy I found Caitlin. She is incredibly talented. I did a hair and makeup trial with her 3 months before my wedding, and was really impressed with the result. She only managed to outdo herself on my wedding day, when she did an even better job. My hair and makeup lasted all night, even to the next morning, which is exactly what I asked for. I've never looked so beautiful. Caitlin took the time to get to know my family too, and did hair and makeup for some of my wedding party and family members. I love her personality, as she's fun and friendly, which is exactly what I was looking for as I wanted to feel calm and relaxed while getting ready. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs hair and makeup done for a wedding, or any other event!

Caitlin is a fantastic stylist. I was so happy with my hair and make-up for the wedding and so were the other ladies that she helped with. She has fabulous taste and has a great energy- a mix of fun and calm--exactly what I needed a few hours before the wedding. She is very thorough, professional and loves what she does---which is so evident in her quality of work. I absolutely recommend Caitlin.

Caitlin Murphy is a rock star! Caitlin did my hair and makeup for my April 2011 wedding and she made me feel like we were old friends. I wanted a make-up artist who used airbrush makeup since I have very difficult skin and worried about makeup staying on. Caitlin's makeup is top quality and lasted all night. I received many compliments and didn't have to worry about retouching my makeup during the reception. I also appreciated the convenience and value of only hiring one person for both hair and makeup. She is a beautiful person inside and out and will make you feel the same way!

Caitlin was amazing! I have very long, thick red hair and she was able to do everything I want and more. I loved the way my hair looked and so didn't everyone else. Also, the make-up she did for me lasted forever. I was so tired I didn't wash my face until the morning and it was still on! Thank you so much Caitlin!!!

Caitlin did my makeup for my 2010 New Year's Eve and it was amazing. I had a trial with her earlier in the year. It gave us a chance to get to know one another and it was a time for me to describe the look I was going for with her. I brought pictures and we experimented with eyelashes, shades of lipstick, etc. After the trial, I gave her some feedback about the things I would like to change. The day of the wedding she showed up right on time and had noted all the changes I had wanted to make. She did an awesome job. My whole bridal party also got their makeup done and they were impressed. The airbrushing makes you feel like you are wearing nothing at all. Great eye makeup and no shiney-ness. Try her out, you'll love her!

I used Caitlin as my hair stylist for my wedding and she did an amazing job!! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a stylist! She was extremely flexible as far as scheduling hair trials with me and was so patient with me (I had no idea what I wanted to do with my hair) and she helped me find a style that looked absolutely stunning on my wedding day. She is also very personable and was a pleasure to work with!

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about the services my daughter, her wedding party and myself received from Caitlin Murphy. She was pleasant & professional. She came to our home for trials. She made great recommendations and did a fabulous job on all of our hair and makeup. Our wedding pictures came out great and her services took the stress out of trying to prepare ourselves. I have no hesitation in recommending her services. The price was reasonable and I think that it was worth every penny.

I really dont think I could ever put into words how happy Caitlin made me on my wedding day. I actually started crying when I looked in the mirror because I have never felt so beautiful in my whole life. In the almost 6 months since my hair and make up trial with Caitlin we've become friends...she is the sweetest and kindest person you'll meet and it was such a blessing to have her calming and enthusiastic attitude there on my wedding day.
I wholeheartedly recommend Caitlin...she'll make you feel beautiful inside and out!!!

Love Caitlin! I saw her twice before our wedding, once for a trial and once for our e-pics. I was never dissapointed. Caitlin is an amazing make-up artist. She did my makeup and all my girls makeup the day of the wedding and we were all extremely happy. I felt absoloutely gorgeous on my wedding day all because of her! She brought Michelle with her to help with Hair and Michelle is a true genious. Everyones hair looked awesome and everyones was different and reflected their personality. They are a great team and I loved working with them. Caitlin was one of my favorite vendors and her talent is just amazing. I highly highly highly recommend her

Caitlin is amazing. She was born to do hair and make up. She did hair and make up for myself, mother and maid of honor on my wedding day. I cancelled my original hair and make up from another salon and booked Caitlin. Everyone absolutely LOVED their hair and make up. She did an awesome job and she's a lot of fun to hang around with! I highly recommend Caitlin.
