Beautifully Styled by Alexis

On Platt Springs Road in West Columbia, owner Alexis and a team of licensed cosmetologists and estheticians have run a bridal-focused studio for more than eight years, treating wedding hair and makeup as a single appointment rather than two separate vendors.

The published rate card lists $250 for the bride's day-of hair and $250 for makeup, with bridesmaids and junior bridesmaids at $150 for each service and flower girls at $50 for hair and $60 for makeup. Hair and makeup previews run $250 each, a second artist adds $250, and hair extension rental is $350. Early call times are itemized directly: $25 for a 7 to 8 a.m. start, climbing to $75 for arrivals before 6 a.m.

Travel within 40 miles of the studio is included at no charge, with mileage beyond that billed at $0.50 per mile per stylist, which covers Lexington, Irmo, and Chapin without an added fee. Booking runs through an online inquiry form, and because the full rate card is public, a couple can price out their wedding day before making contact.
