Last update: February 2023

Montana The Art of Makeup and Hair is a wedding makeup business located in Hamilton, Ontario. With more than 36 years in the bridal and beauty industry, owner and founder Trula Pissas, would like to bring her extensive career experience to you, the bride. The company services couples throughout the GTA and surrounding areas, including Mississauga, Oakville, Burlington, Hamilton, Grimsby, St. Catharines and Niagara.

Services Offered

When booking with Montana The Art of Makeup and Hair, a trial run prior to the wedding is extremely important to get the desired outcome. Trial runs are usually done about four to six weeks prior to the special day. The Bride will receive full makeup and hair styling with any headpieces and veils. The bridal party, who should also be present if possible, receives a complimentary makeup and hair consultation. The consultation involves going over details of the wedding, including dress colours, flower colours, skin tone, hair colour, etc. From there, they will have all the information needed to make the wedding day prep as smooth and stress-free as possible. This team of professional and talented mobile makeup and hair stylists will travel to any location, whether it be at the couple's own home, hotel, banquet hall, or somewhere else!

History

In 1987, Trula had the vision of creating a company that would cater to the needs of soon-to-be-weds in the comfort of their own home, with as little stress as possible. She believes that you should be surrounded by the people that you love and that care about you the most, instead of being just a number in a hair salon with a timeline.

Exceptional, affordable, friendly and high quality bridal makeup service

Trula provides an experience that you can't compare with other make-up artists. She is not only talented and well known in the wedding industry, but comes very highly recommended. Trula made my wedding day that much more special. She made me feel and look so beautiful. She gave me exactly what I was looking for and more. With the extra bonus of dedicated and exceptional service and quality of her services. I would also highly recommend you call Montana The Art of Hair and Make-up and look no further.

5 star is not enough

The ladies who worked with me, Shirley and Jessie were such a pleasure and made my experience much more special. Trula is such a pleasure to talk to. I was impressed with my trial, which I didn't think could get better, on my wedding day, WOW to say the least. These ladies actually helped alleviate my anxiety. I gave my thank you speech through a mic, something I'd NEVER do. The experience with these ladies helped me with that. Bravo ladies, your the best!!! I have added a photo, before I put on my dress....more to come!!!

Very professional, personable and responsive

Trula and Moni were fantastic! We had an early start because we had 7 people (myself, bridesmaids & mothers of the bride/groom) that needed hair and makeup before 10:30am. But they up and ready at our hotel before the time to make sure they had enough time to get everyone done. :) They listened to our opinions and made great recommendations for us. :)

We were going to do a half up/half down hair situation, however, since it was so hot, they recommended that we do all updos since they would last longer and would be easier to maintain during the day. :)

Trula was so nice and professional as well! We had our jokes about shimmer and sparkles, but she made sure that even without shimmer, that we looked fantastic for our photos! :)

I had to make multiple outfit changes throughout the day, and they made sure that the hair and makeup were versatile in the way that it looked great with both outfits. :)

Thank you so much!

Wonderful.

Trula and her team was very quick to respond to my request. With the short amount of time I had to plan anything I needed someone I can rely on ASAP.

She was amazing, she helped me figure out what I need to get done and what she needed from me. She made working with her very fun.

The hair and makeup was done wonderfully. I was quite indecisive to what I needed and she had multiple suggestions that I can try.

Highly suggested to give her and her team a call. Definitely happy that I had her in my corner for my big day.

Wedding hair and makeup for group of 5

I went with Montana Hair and Makeup for my wedding day and couldn't have been more happy with the results! Trula and Shirley were fun to work with and did a fantastic job on my hair and makeup as the bride, as well as 3 of my 4 bridesmaids. The care they put into everything they did was evident, down to the small details that made a big difference. I especially appreciated having a trial ahead of time and the day itself went very smoothly and on time. I would recommend to anyone for their wedding day!

Very professional and a delight to work with!

I recently met Trula (who was recommended by a friend of mine who had work done with her in the past), who did the makeup for the ladies in my wedding party. Trula was an absolute delight to work with. Very professional, very thorough, detail focused, but most of all her incredibly outgoing and friendly demeanor, really helped to remove a lot of stress that we all had on the big day. Trula really helped make our big day as good as it could possibly be. I generally dont leave reviews but I decided to leave Trula a review as I have been so happy with her services with her thorough attention to detail and helping out on so many things that it really made the day go well and be drama free, which in itself is worth the cost. The ladies looked wonderful and the makeup was very professionally applied, looked beautiful on everybody and made everybody really happy how it all turned out. If you need professional job from a specialist who is easy to work with, smiles all the time and is very nice and helps make things stress free, I would like to recommend Trula Pissass. Thanks again Trula your positive approach to all things really made my big day the best it could possibly be.
