"Ally has been my stylist for close to 4 years, since I moved to Chicago. I cannot say enough about Ally. We have had my hair long, short, and then long again for the wedding. Ally is very knowledgeable on products, styles, and and trends. When we decided to have our wedding in Chicago I asked Ally right away. I wanted my hair half up and curly. She did a fantastic job. I loved my hair and it stayed put the entire day. Our wedding day was filled with lots of surprises, snow, rain and awful wind all while we were trying to take photos outside. Through all that my half up style stayed and looked beautiful. Ally was flexible and wonderful on our wedding day. I was extremely happy."

"I have known Ally for as long as I can remember! So, when I got engaged, I knew I wanted Ally to make me look as fabulous as possible! She was incredible through the entire process. Living out of state, she Skyped with me, put up with a billion emails of various hairstyles and talked me through what would look best for the type of “look” I was going for. Her patience and expertise made hair and make-up the easiest process! I was completely at ease and had zero worries about just how fabulous of a job she would do. From the second I asked her to do my hair, up until the day of the wedding, Ally made me feel like her first priority. I couldn’t image having had another stylist by my side." |

To be asked to provide hair and makeup service for my own brother's wedding from his wife was truly one of the highest honors I could ask for. Wanting to keep things simple as to not overwhelm the dress and the artistic style of Lior, we opted for simple yet elegant with fresh flowers to adorn her hair.

"I met Ally a good five years ago at a social event. I found out she was a stylist and so, not committed to any particular stylist, I went. She's been my stylist ever since. Over the years we've shared many stories about family, friends, and dating... so it only made sense for me that Ally be a part of my wedding day. I am SO glad that she was. Ally knows what my style is and it was completely reflected in my wedding hair. I went in for my trial 'do and described the general look of what I was going for given the dress and the headpiece I was wearing (the same headpiece my mom wore at her wedding) and literally the first style she tried was exactly the look I was going for. Day of, the execution was perfect. When everything came together the look was exactly as I had envisioned. We actually had some uncertainty about how the veil and the headpiece would fit together prior to Ally getting her hands on it... and she suggested changing it from what I thought originally would have worked and it was perfect! Ally magic happened again.
I felt like such a princess on my wedding day because of how the look came together and Ally had a huge part in making that happen. I wouldn't have done it any differently. Not to mention, she did blow-outs on a couple of the moms/girls that wanted them and they all walked away with huge smiles on. We all felt like a million bucks. Thank you Ally.. for your friendship and making my wedding day look exactly right :) !!!"

"I began to see Ally as my stylist the same month that I became engaged. Over the next two years of my engagement, Ally expressed the same excitement as myself about designing my wedding hair. She truly invested herself 100% in my wedding. The times I would come see her for a routine cut and highlight, she would be bursting with excitement over new ideas she had thought of for my hair. In weeks leading up to the big day, she always made me feel like her main priority and only client with flexible hair trials, scheduling, and by giving me her personal contact information to ensure that I could contact her anytime before the wedding. Ally’s hair design was absolutely beautiful and met my dream wedding hair design perfectly! Having her as a member of my wedding ‘prep’ team was definitely one of my best decisions."

''Ally did my hair a year before my wedding for another event, a friend's wedding. I was so pleased with her talent and her wonderful personality that I decided to have her do my hair for my Chicago wedding in the Fall of 2011. I could not have been more pleased with the results. She was the consummate professional both during our trial run and the actual event day. During the trial run, we took a number of photographs. Ally took great pains to ensure that I was getting exactly what I wanted for my wedding. She offered feedback both the day of my trial run and a few days later once I had a chance to sit and review the photos. I don't plan on ever using another stylist for event updos in Chicago. Ally is a true pleasure to work with and her talent is unmatched. I will continue to refer friends and acquaintances to her in the future!''

"Ally did a fabulous job on hair and makeup for me and my bridesmaids for my wedding. She was patient and worked with me to develop a look for my wedding that suited me perfectly. With her expertise, she adapted different ideas to create a look that fit each one of us. She made sure each of us was 100% satisfied. I can't thank her enough for her beautiful work!”

''I had an image in my head of what I wanted to look like on my wedding day. Ally went above and beyond to make me more beautiful then I expected and went out of her way to make sure that everything looked picture perfect from my make up to my hair. If it wasnt for her creativity I wouldn't have been the beautiful Princess Bride I was that day. Thank you Ally for your great technique and care for your work. You made my wedding day even more gorgeous then I imagined.''
