Love Personified

Where to even begin about this gem of a human and her amazing skills? I know I am one of so many that has gushed about Genica, but I’m here to add to the heap of love. The hype is real, y’all. Genica immediately put my mind at ease with her calm vibes and easy conversation. I felt like I made a new friend! Her dog Mabel tagged along and is seriously the cutest thing I’ve ever seen. Genica was so patient with my mom who’s super finicky about her hair, and made her look like a goddess. She listened to what I wanted and executed my vision flawlessly. I told her I didn’t want to wear foundation and she was able to buff concealer here and there to perfect the look. I am so picky about makeup and hair, and had seriously considered doing it myself, especially after I wasn’t crazy about my hometown trial. I’m so glad I didn’t, this woman knows her industry! I felt so beautiful, and more importantly, I felt like myself. Amazingly, the makeup held all day. Genica, you are an absolute doll and your skill set is top notch. Thank you a thousand times for your role in such an important day!

Talented and All Around Amazing Person

Just hire her. She is amazing. I don't even know where to begin. She is incredibly talented and just a wonderful person to be around. She makes you feel comfortable from the start. While she is very talented, she is open to any feedback. I had a trial run of hair and makeup prior to my wedding and she made sure to ask multiple times if I had any comments about things I would want to change (immediately after the trial, a couple days later, and prior to applying the makeup for my wedding). As for how well the makeup lasted, it stayed put throughout my wedding and reception and I never had to mess with it all. My hair also stayed how she styled it despite some strong wind. Could not recommend her more highly.

Beauty from the inside out!

Genica is one of the most beautiful and bright souls I have ever met. I think in the beauty industry there is a lot of "fake" beauty circling around us. For me that is one of the most unattractive things and I don't like surrounding myself around that. I was really nervous hiring a MUA for my wedding day for that reason. I was battling a lot of insecurity and doubt, even leading up to my wedding day. Genica was a breath of fresh air and really grounded me and set the tone first thing in the morning. She nailed my bridal look, she totally kept to my vision, but also added elements I wasn't even thinking about. The whole time she was doing my makeup and hair we were talking about LOVE, all LOVE. It seriously made my feel beautiful on the side and then the work she did on the outside just made beauty radiate from me all day on my wedding day. I give a lot of credit to Genica for setting that tone for me. She is filled with so much grace, love, and light and it is infectious. She was so much more than just a MUA on my wedding day, she really was a Godsent.

Turned me into a starry eyed beauty!

Genica was fantastic to work with. I couldn’t ask for better. She was easy to communicate with, responsive, and really seemed to understand my trepidation about makeup, since I hardly ever wear any. I felt so very at ease with her! I opted to pay a little extra for a trial run, and it was well worth it. I was so excited and confident about what would happen for my big day - there was not a moments hesitation or trepidation! I absolutely loved what she did for my hair. With my fine wimpy locks, I felt like a regal princess without feeling overdone. It was so nice to feel so good!!!

10/10 Amazing for my wedding

Her skills are top notch, she's so nice and professional while also being like your best friend. I couldn't have made a better choice for my wedding. She did my hair and makeup together and I looked STUNNING. My whole family was shocked how beautiful I looked. She even made my mom cry by asking her sweet questions about me and my husband. I love her.

Transformed frizzy unmanageable hair and erased age

I am a ‘mature’ bride, with thin, frizzy hair. In less than 90 minutes, Genica erased 15 years from my face through expert makeup techniques. More importantly, she transformed my hair into smooth, shiny, touchable tresses. My hairstyle lasted three days! AND she was incredibly sweet and helped calm my nerves. She was amazing!

Would have paid her just for her emails

Genica was, besides my mother, perhaps the most excited person about my wedding. Her big sister energy was sooo appreciated during the crazy process of planning a wedding from out-of-state.

Hair Goddess

Genica did my hair for my elopement and I can't believe how amazing it came out. I travelled from across the country, so didn't have a trial. I showed her a few photos of hairstyles that I liked and she immediately knew what to do. I still cant believe how beautifully it came out! We hiked to our wedding location and throughout the day my hair remained perfect! Not to mention, Genica is so, so sweet & fun. Simply the best!
