I waited until the last minute to book hair and makeup for my wedding, but Shary and her team went above and beyond to accommodate me and my entire bridal party. She arrived at my hotel bright and early (6:30 am!) to get us ready for the big day. Not only is she an absolute professional, giving facials and applying makeup and lashes with incredible speed and precision, but she also brought such a fun, bubbly energy that kept everyone’s spirits high even though we were all half asleep! I loved my facial so much that I ended up purchasing two gift certificates to share as thank-you gifts after the wedding. I can’t recommend Touch of Color enough, whether it’s for your special day or simply to treat yourself to some well deserved self-care, Shary and her team will make you feel beautiful inside and out!

As a bride with a hectic schedule and a million things to juggle while planning a wedding, I honestly don’t know what I’d do without Shary and her amazing team. They’ve been by my side since the beginning of this process, and they’ve helped with so much—not just wedding makeup prep, but also making sure I actually slow down and take care of myself. The studio has totally become my go-to self-care spot. It’s such a peaceful, calming space where I can take a deep breath and reset. I’ve been blown away by every service I’ve had here. Today I got Shary’s signature facial and wow... it was exactly what I needed. So relaxing, and my skin feels incredible. If you’re a bride (or just a busy human in need of pampering), this is the team you want. They’re kind, insanely talented, and truly know how to support you through big life moments. I already feel so taken care of—and my wedding is still a year away!

If I could give 6 stars I would! I am so happy with the outcome of my visits with Shari, no matter what application of her skills, you will be impressed by her knowledge, experience, artistry and love for what she does. Her studio is clean, welcoming, and instantly puts me in a frame of mind that makes me feel like I'm on vacation. I'm so impressed by her many faceted offerings and I whole heartedly recommend a visit to 'A Touch of Color' and look forward to receiving her signature facial very soon!

If you're looking to get your hair done, look no further! Carly at ATOC is absolutely spectacular. She does an amazing job every time you go to see her. She is so sweet and makes sure that you leave happy. I travel far just to go to Carly. The salon is clean and the rest of the staff are friendly. I've been to tons of salons but none of them even compare to Carly at ATOC. She is the best. You won't regret seeing her!

I went to A Touch of Color Makeup and Hair Studio to have my hair done for my civil ceremony and Ashley did an amazing job! I just showed her a general picture of what I wanted and told her to use her professional judgement of what would look nice and she exceeded my expectations!! I received so many compliments on my hair that day. Highly recommend getting your hair done by Ashley if you have an event, you will not regret it.
