Reviews of Artistry by Jennifer Lee Johnson

Highly Recommend

Jennifer is a breath of fresh air, and we were so grateful to have found her! She listened to all ideas and worked with me to create the hair and makeup of my dreams. She was super adaptable and was able to put me and my bridal party at ease when the day of jitters kicked in.

Besides being a fantastic artist, she was a true professional, punctual and responsive. From just a few pictures and descriptions of what I was going for, she was able to fulfill the exact look I wanted. My hair ideas changed around but she helped show a few options and even found a good way to have my hair piece stay in place through all the dancing.

She knew exactly what she was doing~ and my makeup stayed looking fresh for over 10 hours. Her rates are very reasonable and she is absolutely worth every penny. I highly recommend Artistry by Jennifer Lee Johnson!

Jennifer is an INCREDIBLE makeup artist! I honestly could not have been happier with my bridal makeup. Jennifer is kind and easy to communicate over email. From just a few pictures and descriptions of what I was going for, she was able to give me the exact look I wanted. Despite the fact that I got ready 6 hours before the wedding even started, my makeup stayed looking fresh throughout the day and night (even through all the crazy dancing). My bridesmaids looked absolutely stunning throughout the night as well. We had a set amount of time in which to get many girls ready, but Jennifer helped us make a schedule and stick to it. I should also mention that her rates are quite reasonable compared to other artists. I absolutely recommend Artistry by Jennifer Lee Johnson!

Jennifer was a great MUA and hair stylist. I told her what I was looking for for my wedding day and she went over and above what I had expected. She does such a wonderful job and takes the time to listen to what I want before she offers her suggestions. She did a hairdo for my mom and maid and honor too. It was an excellent price and a great experience. I highly recommend it.

Brides, if you are looking for a hairdresser/make-up artist that cares about how you look on your big day as much as you do, then Jen is your gal!
I hired her to do hair and make-up for my wedding in May 2013. I was having a hard time figuring out just what look I wanted, but she patiently worked with me on a few trial sessions until we were able to find a look that I loved. She also did hair and make-up for some of my bridesmaids and my Mother, who doesn't wear more than mascara on a daily basis. My Mom looked beautiful when she was finished, but also said she felt comfortable and not over done. The day of my wedding was unusually hot for that time of year and our ceremony was held outside. To top it off, the air conditioner in the limo broke so there was no relief on the way to the venue. I have oily skin and most of the time make-up melts off in hot weather. My make-up stayed in place perfectly all day and into the night! I felt beautiful all day without having to worry about how my make-up was holding up.

Jennifer is amazing at what she does! I'm so lucky to have had her as my hair and make up stylist for my wedding, bridal party, and mother of the bride. Couldn't have asked for a better person to be there for me leading up to my wedding day and the biggest day of my life. Dependable, creative and talented. Thanks Jen!

Jennifer is very professional and makes sure that she stays up to date with the latest trends and techniques. I have enjoyed working with Jennifer over the last two years for my hair and make-up needs. She uses high quality products for both hair and make-up and makes everyone feel at ease. I highly recommend her for both hair and make-up needs.

Jen is by far my favorite hairstylist! Trust me when I say I have gone through several while my time here. It was never the right color or the haircut just wasn't right. The moment I walked in Jen's house I knew that this girl knew her stuff. Not only do I walk away each time feeling sexy and loving my hair but she gives me more knowledge then I could asked for. That is one of her best qualities. She continues to grow in her education and loves learning new tricks and styles. I am so blessed to have her as my stylist.

Jennifer is amazing with hair and makeup! She does such a great job with color and every time I tell her what I am looking for she exceeds my expectations. I was fortunate enough to have her do my hair and makeup for a pinup style photo shoot and it was flawless. I love how she also tells you what will look good with your features and what doesn't. I highly recommend booking an appointment with Jennifer if you need any type of hair or makeup services needed.
