I received so many compliments on my hairstyle. She came to do a trial with me about a month in advance to make sure we perfected it. I wore it for three days straight. Braids stayed perfectly in tact and curls only needed to be touched up on the following morning. Bri has such a friendly, easy-going personality, and she kept things going so smoothly on my wedding day (10 people total!). I would highly recommend her to any brides looking for a skillful and overall super sweet hairstylist!
Bride to be, is this you…
- You want a hairstyle that looks effortless
- and completely like yourself, but elevated JUST enough to feel a little extra special on such an important day.
- You are pretty sure you want a braid
- in your bridal style, but want it to look loose and modern, yet stay put all day.
- You are between a braided half up style
- or maybe a low bun with romantic pieces framing your face.
- You're tired of endlessly emailing vendors
- and not hearing back in a timely manner, leaving you stuck in wedding overwhelm.
- You want a hair stylist who has a calming presence
- with a touch of silly to keep things light-hearted on your wedding day.
100+ brides styled since 2020
For your wedding morning imagine if…
- You were able to show up confident
- in the timeline your hairstylist created for you to simply pop names into.
- You felt excited and stress free
- sitting down to get your hair styled because you LOVED how it turned out at your bridal hair trial WEEKS ago and TODAY IS THE DAY!.
- You don't worry about feeling rushed.
- You hired a stylist that shows up early and only books one wedding per day so I'm here for YOU!

I hired Bri to work on my long hair that goes down to my waist & is so so thick! As soon as I saw Bri’s instagram account, I knew I NEEDED her for my wedding hair! & I never trust anyone with my hair! She went above & beyond to communicate back quickly, made sure I loved my hair, & made sure I felt absolutely beautiful. Bri was EARLY on my wedding day & started as soon as she showed up with her assistant! They were done on time with everyone. Bri & her assistant were so so kind & just the kind of girls you want getting ready with you the morning of your wedding. 100/10 reccomend hiring Bri to make your bridal hairstyle dreams come true ❤️

She is so down to earth, and she is so sweet. She will blow you away with her braids. From the moment I left my hair trial to the day of my wedding, Bri made it easy. She knew exactly what I wanted, and she was able to create something even better. Bri also did my bridesmaids' hair for the wedding, and they looked perfect! We received so many compliments, and you can trust it to stay put the entire time. I was so exhausted from the wedding day I ended up passing out with my hair still braided. I woke up that morning with my hair still looking amazing! She is seriously a hair wizard, and if you are looking to have your hair styled out of this world, Bri is the perfect person for you! I will be using Bri again for any special events.

She styled my hair for my engagement shoot, rehearsal dinner and day of my wedding. When I was trying to decide what style to do for my wedding it was so difficult because I was so in love with every style of Bre’s that I saw. She was so patient when working with me to perfect exactly how I wanted my hair for my wedding day. She was professional but super warm and easy to talk to. All of my bridesmaids loved her and were saying how nice, chill and easy to talk to she was! Before I sat down in Bre’s chair on my wedding day, I was stressed about all of the day of wedding stuff, however, her good vibes and calming aura helped me to relax and forget about everything. Bre’s work is absolutely stunning. My hair was exactly how I wanted it and all of my bridesmaids looked and felt so beautiful!! If I had my own personal everyday stylist, I would choose Bre lol. You won’t be disappointed by Bre! I highly recommend!!!

Yo, these girls are extraordinary! When I began planning my wedding I knew for a fact that I didn’t want to worry about how my hair or makeup would look. I didn’t have a single worry about my hair with Bri!!! Bri is the most talented hair stylist in Cincinnati in my opinion. Just take a look at her work on her social media! My wedding hair lasted all day without falling or losing its shape… and that’s saying a lot because it was 90 and very humid that day! The bridal party’s hair were all so beautiful too. My flower girl was SO thrilled to have her hair done by Bri and both Bri and Amber made her look like a princess! I seriously cannot recommend Bri enough. She is so professional, kind, talented, genuine, and a wonderful human being. I can’t wait for another event that I will need my hair done for because Bri will be the first person I contact :) Thank you for making the most important day of my life so beautiful and memorable. I am so blessed and thankful to have had you and Amber a part of my wedding squad!!!
Meet your bridal hair stylist
Hey! I’m Bri!
My mission is to create whimsical and romantic hairstyles for my free spirited brides! I am here for a laid back morning full of fun, family, friendship… and of course some BEAUTIFUL HAIR! I got my cosmetology license from Aveda in West Chester, Ohio (I love to utilize primarily cruelty free and vegan products in my hair kit). From there I worked in a salon for two years, then ventured out on my own and started Bridal Braids by Bri in 2020.
At a glance
- I'm a Cincy girl who just moved to 5 acres in New Richmond, Ohio with my incredible husband, Mike and two pups, Kate and Jack.
- Love to chill at home 80% of the time! The other 20% I'm getting mocha oat milk lattes with Mike at a coffee shop or seeking out delicious vegan eats.
- I have two sisters and three nieces. Let's just say I'm a pro at navigating females haha! No bridal party is ever too crazy for me.
- My best friend and I have the same name, but spelled “Bre”
- Biology major turned CEO of Bridal Braids by Bri
- I also have a huge passion for health and wellness. I believe we get one body so we must move it and fuel it with nourishing meals every day. Most importantly I think it’s essential to practice thinking kind thoughts of ourselves and spread that far and wide to others too!

She was right on time and worked both quickly and efficiently to get my hair, my 4 bridesmaids’ and my flower girl’s hair done before our photo time without having us get up extremely early. Bri created the most beautiful, romantic braided styles that stayed ALL day, even through a windy December Saturday. On top of all this, she is so friendly and easy to work with. Being a Covid bride, who had to postpone her original wedding date to a year later, I was so worried about my vendors being flexible. Thankfully, Bri was still available for my postponed date, and was very understanding. She quickly reassured me everything would be okay and kept up with me throughout the year before the new date, which surprisingly was not common for my other vendors. Overall, Bri is EXTREMELY talented and provides excellent customer service - she is worth every penny and more!

We chatted the whole time about everything. As an introvert, I was over the moon that sitting there for hours was so easy and painless on the social front. She is so so great at her trades too. She did my hair for my wedding but also my makeup for a boudie shoot. Both were perfect and I got so many compliments. Moving forward, any big event in my life, I’m booking I to make me look good!

She is passionate about her work and you can tell! From the very beginning she was extremely helpful in helping understand and plan hair styles and how to schedule trials. Her services are completely personal and her personality is just the best! I found her on Instagram.
My hair type: frizzy, wavy in the front and braided crimp like in the back
Trial: I booked my trial just a few weeks out from my wedding… which I highly recommend! My hair color and texture mimicked my wedding day hair. I also probably would have changed the style I wanted if it was any earlier. I even asked Bri to help remind me to schedule an Uber since I didn’t have a car and was visiting from Chicago. I found it so funny to find She set an alarm on her phone to remind me. Made her feel like my friend and not just my hairstylist… anyhow… after my trial I scooted around Cinci to a few breweries and flew home to chicago and took a nap. my hair still looking untouched. That’s how I knew I choose the right person!
Wedding day: Bri was first to arrive and took no time to start her masterpieces. My girls absolutely loved. Bri! You tell her what you want and she gives you all the confidence about your choice. Everyone’s hair stayed all night! It was muggy… and my hair barely even frizzed and looked so good even when I woke up the next morning.
End story: Book Bri before she is booked up. You will regret not booking her.
Bri was great! Such a sweet person and great to work with. She made my wedding hair come to life and I loved it! If you are wanting any type of braids for your wedding day you can’t go wrong with Bri. Bri was great! Such a sweet person and great to work with.

She was also very responsive to all my emails and patient with all my inspiration pics…. There were A LOT. I ultimately went with a loose and romantic topsy tail style that went perfectly with my dress and overall theme. I highly recommend Bri and her sister was so sweet too. Thank you!!!! :)
