Ashley Taylor Studios was honored to help staff the official 2025 BET Awards Hospitality Suite with a curated team of elite beauty professionals. When the BET Awards called, we answered—suitcases packed, team ready, and standards set sky-high.
The Assignment:
Create a seamless, high-touch experience for VIP guests preparing to step onto one of the most visible stages in entertainment. They needed the best hair and makeup team in the country, skilled with precision, professionalism, and speed. No room for error. No time for ego. Just results.
The Execution:
From Richmond, VA to Los Angeles, our team brought their absolute best. Every glam artist knew exactly how to deliver under pressure. We handled beauty prep and hair styling with calm expertise—because that’s what the moment required.
Our team included:
Dominique Jones – Makeup
Kay Woodson – Makeup & Hair
Sarah Yaklin – Makeup & Hair
Leilani Gray – Makeup & Hair
These women showed up with grace and grit. Their work was flawless, and their energy elevated the room.
Why It Mattered:
Award shows don’t have time for trial and error. They need talent they can trust—on time, on site, and operating at the highest level. That’s exactly what we delivered. And this project affirmed our mission: to style every detail—for the spotlight and beyond.
What’s Next:
Ashley Taylor Studios is now booking for select high-profile events. If you’re producing an awards show, media weekend, or corporate celebration and need on-site hair, makeup, tailoring, or wardrobe support—we’d love to partner with you.
