ABOUT RARE BIRD BEAUTIES

Rare Bird Beauties was founded in 2015 and has grown into one of Chicago’s top luxury wedding and special event hair and makeup companies. With hundreds of wedding clients each year, our company is represented by over 50 of Chicago’s most talented hair and makeup artists.

We believe that styling hair and makeup is a true art form. We dedicate ourselves to the detailed work of bringing out the natural beauty of each of our clients. We take a unique consultation approach with our clients to match our brides to each stylist on our team. When all of this comes together and the bride looks in the mirror for the first time on her wedding day, we are reminded why it’s hard to miss a rare bird beauty.

In 2023, Rare Bird Beauties began expanding their brand beyond services by developing Rare Bird Beauties Custom Matched Extensions. The new line of hair extensions became so popular with bridal clients that the decision was made to expand the RBB hair and makeup studio to include a retail space and bring Custom Matched Extensions to everyone. In addition to the extension line, our store features one-of-a-kind handmade jewelry along with hair and makeup products. The RBB studio and retail space also feature an in-house esthetician, helping to make it a comprehensive beauty destination.
