Stephanie Brinkerhoff

Virtually overnight, Stephanie went from a small town girl from Utah to bridal superstar. At just 27 years old, she is one of the most sought-after bridal updo stylists in the world and it all started on the Internet. Better known by her social media moniker, Hair & Makeup by Steph, Stephanie’s non-traditional bridal upstyles are seen by her more than 5 million Pinterest followers. Her debut book, published by behindthechair.com, “Elegant Upstyles for Today’s Bride,” has sold more than 3,000 copies and when she made her first onstage appearance for BTC during America’s Beauty Show, admiring fans lined up outside the venue just to see her 90-minute class of unique bridal styles. Her knack for creating on-trend looks keeps her busy with her brides-to-be as does her work as BTC’s resident bridal and upstyling expert, where she regularly submits columns for the magazine and hosts bridal styling webinars.
