Alchemy Beauty Salon

I've had Cat do my makeup for several events in the past, most recently my engagement shoot. Not only did she fly out to California with me from Texas, she made sure that my hair and makeup made me feel like myself instead of pushing me to do something I wasn't comfortable with. She was extremely fast with my makeup and hair, even putting in my clip-in extensions for me! Cat has an extremely kind soul and I always have so much fun with her because she makes you feel like family. I highly recommend her for any hair, makeup, or wedding service!!

They say your wedding is one of the most important days of your life. Having worked in the wedding industry as a photographer, I have come to know this as well as the importance of recognizing and celebrating the milestones you meet along the way to the alter. This is to say, just as it is awesome to live in recognition of the monument that is your wedding day, it is even more awesome to live in recognition of the monument that is marrying yourself and your potential first.

As my college graduation approached, and my new chapter fell along the horizon, it felt only right to reach out to Cat for my hair and makeup needs for senior pictures. After all, achieving my degree was in fact, the most monumental day of my life thus far. Booking Cat to help encapsulate this milestone event was ultimately the way to go. I have known her for years, as a friend and fellow bridal industry worker. I have seen her surpass the bar for excellent service, and I can say without a doubt, her dedication to clients is of the rare, gifted sort. Cat shows up in all the ways you would need her to be as a professional, and she did not let me down. She brings her own style to the table, and makes the entire process about you. She fostered such professionalism, enthusiasm, patience, and time management during the getting ready process and after— all of which speak volumes to the years of continuous education, growth, passion, and dedication brought to her craft. I felt truly lucky that she made the time to do my hair and makeup considering the crunch of time I had available.

Through her artistry, she made me look as radiant as I felt (and ultimately boosted my confidence as I have not been in front of the camera in some years). The process was flawless, and I know I will cherish the photos for many years to come.

Cat & Kris are absolutely AMAZING!! I used them both for my engagement pictures, bridal portraits and for my wedding day. Cat did my makeup & the bridesmaids as well, she was great at making everyone look stunning! Her makeup quality was great, I didn’t feel like I had a caked on face, and no need for touch ups during our wedding day. Kris did my hair as well for all 3 rounds of wedding pictures and made my mermaid/Khaleesi hair dreams come true! I showed her ideas of what I wanted and she was able to recreate the hairstyles with her own personal style. Both of them were so amazing & I felt absolutely beautiful thanks to them.
