Feathered Hair Salon

I'm a bridal hair stylist located in Cary, NC, and I've been honing my craft for over 10 years. I absolutely adore weddings – they're my favorite! Working with brides and helping their visions come to life brings me so much joy.

Awarded Best of Zola
Rush was a dream to work with, in all truth. She styled five heads including my long, thick haired updo. She also did wonders with shall-we-say less bountiful heads of hair, which as you may know, is less of an easy job. She works with good products and good tools which was important to me. And most importantly, my bridal updo was The Most Comfortable Hair I've Ever Had. I kid you not. I wore that updo (with 75 pins in it) for 12 hours. There was not a pin-prick in my scalp and it wasn't heavy or annoying in any way. It held up until midnight when I reluctantly left the party and disassembled my gorgeous hair. Some people style wedding hair because they have to, Rush does it because she genuinely loves the whole experience (which really shows). She was helpful, thoughtful, had superb communication habits, and is just all around a sweet, sweet human. I could not recommend her or her services more highly.

Hi! My name is Alaina and I have been a makeup artist professionally for just over 10 years and also have been a licensed Esthetician in NC since 2010- Proud Aveda Alumni! I LOVE meeting new people and helping them feel and look their best, while also making it a comfy and safe experience for you! When you LOOK good, you FEEL good. And I truly believe that. I specialize in natural bridal and special event makeup, and have been known to go a little crazy for Halloween too. Fun facts: I'm a busy dog mom of 4, and when I'm not doing makeup looks, you could probably find me rappelling down a mountain or hiking on a trail.

If you are looking for a make up artist or hairstylist for your next event, look no further. I was fortunate to have Starlit Beauty Co. do my make up for a wedding last year and was blown away. I’ll definitely book again for my next event.

Wink Hair + Makeup 

5.0

  • Serves Wake Forest, NC

WINK hair + makeup began because a group of like minded creatives had a passion for making women look and feel confident and beautiful. We are artists that love constantly learning how to enhance natural beauty and teaching what we know to clients and other artists.

I had never had my makeup professionally done, but I knew I wanted it for my wedding. WINK is the only business that provided COVID protocols upfront, without my asking, when I was looking for the right artist for my wedding. Because of that, I immediately went with them. And I am SO GLAD I did! My makeup was PERFECT on my wedding day. I was a little nervous because I didn't do a trial run, but there was no need to be worried. Krystal went over my inspiration photos with me and then went to work. It was exactly what I wanted, and I have never felt more beautiful. If I ever need my makeup done professionally again, I will absolutely go with WINK!

Her team had a set pre made schedule for each of my girls, listened to their beauty visions, extremely friendly, and even my pickiest bridesmaids were blown away and obsessed with how they looked! Also, due to my venues schedule, we had to get ready at my house and her team brought their own table/chairs and left my house cleaner than it was before they arrived.
