Hair and makeup review

Kristen was phenomenal. A couple family members and I asked her to do hair and make-up before a wedding reception for each of us, and we could not have been happier with our decision. In addition to be super responsive, easy to communicate with, and extremely flexible and understanding, she is exceptionally talented. She was able to create each of our looks exactly as we envisioned them (each one different from the other, highlighting her versatility). We were all in love with how our hair and makeup turned out. One of the best parts about working with Kristen is that she really wants you to be a part of the process and asks you at each step of the way if what she is doing matches your vision...and she does not stop until she gets it perfect. If we are ever back in her town again, we will most certainly be working with her again!! Talented, sweet, and professional. SO happy we found her.

We highly recommend Kristen!

My wife and I got our hair and makeup done by Kristen on 3 occasions: for our engagement photoshoot, then a bridal trial, and then the day of the wedding of course! Each and every time we loved the way our makeup and hair looked, it really captured who we were as individuals (my wife likes a soft glam look and I like more toned down/natural looking makeup). As a queer couple, Kristen made us feel so welcomed and comfortable. She is so professional while also still being down to earth and fun to work with. We kept saying on our wedding day how lucky we were to have her there to start the day on a great note while getting ready. The heat index was at 100 and we decided to change my hair because of the humidity. I originally was going to have my hair down but I found a new style that I wanted last minute. It was the best decision ever!!! My wife and I felt gorgeous on our big day, and our hair and makeup lasted well through the heat and dancing. We can’t recommend Kristen enough, it’s so rare that you find someone like this in the wedding industry! Kristen will collaborate with you throughout the whole process and from the moment you begin speaking with her you’ll tell comfortable. :)
