About Styled By Shelby Kay

Styled By Shelby Kay

Owner + Stylist

Ive been in the hair industry for over 11 years, with a deep passion for bridal styling. Creating timeless, elegant wedding hairstyles is one of my greatest joys—whether it’s a soft romantic updo, effortless waves, or a sleek modern look. I love working closely with each bride to ensure her hair complements her dress, venue, and overall vision, so she feels confident, beautiful, and completely herself on her wedding day.

I specialize in a wide range of bridal hairstyles, from soft romantic waves to elegant updos and modern, polished looks. One of my favorite ways to elevate a wedding style is by incorporating hair extensions. Extensions enhance fullness and length while helping the hair hold curls and structure throughout the entire wedding day—perfect for long ceremonies, photos, and dancing. This helps you achieve the luxurious, long-lasting style you’ve always envisioned, even if your natural hair needs a little extra boost.

    AMAZING!

    Shelby is a wonderful addition to any bride's day! Her communication is fast, effective, and laid back, which is always appreciated during the busy wedding planning process. Shelby works closely with the bride to achieve the exact look they are wanting, and it always turns out stunning. Shelby not only does amazing work, but she is also so kind and laid back, making even the most hectic wedding days feel relaxed. I highly recommend Styled By Shelby Kay to any bride looking for hair services!

    My first appt with Shelby. She will be doing our hair for an upcoming wedding so I thought I should give her a try as I am new to the area. She did a great job adjusting my hair color (blonde& grey) to a beachy blonde vibe. I'm very happy with it.

    My first, but not the last visit. I found MY stylist after 3 years. She did an absolute amazing job. I hadn’t been to a salon in a year. I don’t have the before/after pics yet. But check her instagram. My hair looks beautifully natural. Very knowledgeable and skilled with tools and products for all hair types. Studio is quiet and quaint.

    This was my second time seeing Shelby and first time since having grown my hair out. I was not disappointed. She does a great job and is very easy to talk to. I look forward to future appointments.
