Love Notes

“Shayla is so kind, friendly, and easy to work with! She was engaging and fun to be around while she did my hair and the hair of my sisters, cousins, moms, and friends (there were 8 of us total). She did an amazing job on everyone, and all of us have different hair types, lengths, and textures! As a bride who didn’t do a trial, I was a bit worried that I would end up with my hair looking sub-par, but Shayla understood exactly what I wanted and delivered it even better than I had imagined! I LOVED my hair, and I got so many compliments on it! It has been so nice seeing pictures from that night and continuing to be in awe of how beautiful my hair looked. I would recommend Shayla for any wedding, photoshoot, or event where you might want to do a little something special with your hair and/or makeup. Thank you so much, Shayla!”

“Shayla did my hair and makeup for my destination wedding up in Glacier National Park. She made my bridesmaids look absolutely stunning and made me feel and look like a princess. Shayla was absolutely a dream and so sweet! I’m not the typical bright and airy bride so when I told her like a bit more moody makeup she hesitated at first which was to be expected, but she went with it and killed it! I would absolutely recommend hiring Shayla for your wedding!”
– Katie
“My makeup and hair trial was the night of my rehearsal dinner. I showed Shayla a few pictures of the look I was going for and she nailed it!!! My bridal party also loved her – one of my bridesmaids kept saying “I look great! This is the best I have ever looked!” If you want yourself and your bridal party to look amazing on your wedding day I would highly recommend going with Beauty and Belief!”

Fun facts

What are your favorite kinds of couples to work with?

Our favorite couples to work with are the ones who are so excited to marry their best friend in the mountains and are counting down the days to say the words "Wife" & "Husband" for the first time.

Do you travel for clients? If so, where?

Yes! Beauty & The Belief is on site exclusive when it comes to weddings. This means we do not have bridal parties come to us, instead we come to you and bring everything with us on the day of your wedding. We travel across the entire state of Montana and sometimes even beyond.

What is your favorite part about a wedding?

Although we don't stay through ceremony and reception, we do get to see the photos captured by our brides photographer of their wedding and their are specific photos we always look forward to seeing. We love seeing first look moments, whether that's a moment before ceremony or the first time our couples eyes meet walking down the isle. We also enjoy seeing those intimate sunset photos that no else sees until after the wedding as well. Those are the moments where you see the love and happiness shining from our couples, when they are alone and away from the party for just a few short minutes and get to take it all in together.

Where do you find your design inspiration?

All of our artists draw our inspiration from our clients. Most of the time photos are shown to us and we are asked to recreate a makeup look or a specific hairstyle, that is pretty typical. Sometimes, though, we are given creative freedom and that's where the magic happens. We talked to our brides and listen to the words they use to describe their dress, overall feel for their wedding, and their daily style. From there we create a one of a kind look specifically for the bride we are working with. We make sure they feel comfortable, they feel like themselves, but mostly that they feel beautiful.
