Smittin was created from a shared love of beauty, artistry, and the unmistakable magic of a Midwest wedding day. Based in Arlington Heights, we specialize exclusively in on-location bridal and event hair and makeup, bringing a calm, refined presence to your most meaningful moments.

We’ve been friends for years, and we both began our careers in the beauty industry independently in 2012. From early mornings behind the chair to countless wedding days and special events, we’ve grown not only as artists but alongside each other. That history gives an intuitive rhythm, a seamless partnership our clients can feel the moment we arrive.

Our style is timeless with a modern edge, polished yet effortless, elevated yet completely you. We believe beauty should enhance, not overwhelm. The goal is simple: when you look in the mirror you feel radiant, confident, and maybe even a little smitten with yourself!

With over a decade of professional experience and a deep appreciation for the details that make a day run smoothly, we understand that getting ready is more than just hair and makeup. It’s the quiet anticipation, the music playing in the background, the laughter with your closest people. We’re there not just to perfect your look, but to protect the energy of the day.

At SMITTIN, we believe in love stories, lasting friendships, and creating beauty that feels as genuine as the moment itself.
