Lovely makeup, lovely person

Jen was very attentive and meticulous in her work. She worked with me in figuring out what I wanted and what would look best with my coloring. My wedding makeup turned out beautiful. And Jen is also the sweetest - highly recommend!

So much more than makeup

When it comes to makeup, Jen it out of this world good at what she does. She worked with me to help me hone in on my vision, and executed beyond expectations to create the natural look I wanted.

Just as importantly, Jen was truly one of the biggest heroes of our day. The day before my wedding I found a pimple on my face and a stye in my eye and Jen helped melt away my anxiety by ensuring me that these were no problem (and then actually executing on that). She was the helper I never knew we needed - always there to fix our clothes, touch up, etc. She was a calming presence for me, my husband and our families. Jen is a wedding day fairy god mother and I can’t recommend her highly enough!

Love Jen & her Team!

Jen and her team were incredible to work with and made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. A big part of your wedding day is working with vendors who make you feel good and Jen and her team had the absolute best temperament for what can be a stressful day! They were so fun, good natured and handled hair and makeup for 13 people with ease. Jen creates a schedule for everyone getting hair and makeup done and everything was timed perfectly. They even helped a few of my friends who decided to not get their makeup done just out of the goodness of their hearts!

Jen takes the time to work with you on exactly how you’d like to look and her natural style of makeup makes you feel beautiful without looking overdone. And Jenny made sure my hair was set and stayed coiffed all night long! I loved the way I looked and Jen & her team were such a pleasure to work with. I couldn’t recommend them more highly.

Best in the biz

I hired Jen Kinford and her team for my 2022 wedding and they are HANDS DOWN the best hair & makeup artists that I have ever experienced. (This is coming from someone who has been a bridesmaid in 8 weddings in the past two years, I've met a lot of teams!) Jen is a MASTER and I love her approach to enhancing and embracing your natural beauty. My skin never looked so flawless, and she is an eyelash wizard. Jasmine also did makeup for the bridesmaids and everyone loved her work. Gabby did our hair and championed 8 girls in a few short hours. Everyone was extremely happy with their hair, she is able to do perfect curls, updos, beachy waves, you name it. These guys are the best in the business.

She is the best!

Jen was the absolute best! From a stress free trial to nailing the same look day of, her calming and fun energy, and her seamless process, everything was amazing. I think my best compliment would be I didn’t need to use my touch up kit once throughout the night - the makeup and hair held up for over 10 hours and a lot of sweat and dancing!!

Loved working with Jen and her team!

I hired J. Kinford Beauty for my April 2022 wedding and would highly recommend them for future brides. Jen and her team are super responsive, and I really appreciated having a skin consultation 6 months prior to my wedding; she put in a lot of work and effort in sending me a list of skincare products and a routine to follow leading up to the big day. For makeup, I wanted a natural but glamourous look for my wedding day and thought that she really delivered. I worked with Jenny on my hair and she was able to take a few inspo images I gave and turn it into a great hairstyle for the day of. The morning of my wedding, they came a half an hour early to prepare and stuck perfectly to the timeline. They made the morning relaxing and easy, and I know my bridesmaids and mob/mog loeved their looks too. I'm so pleased to have met and worked with Jen and Jenny and hope future brides get the same pleasure!

Look and feel like your best self!

Jen and her team were INCREDIBLE to work with! I loved her overall approach to embracing natural beauty, and greatly appreciated how light and airy her makeup made me feel during my wedding! She was very accommodating during our date postponement process due to Covid-19, and made a stressful time more manageable. Her team was very kind to everyone, and they finished hair/makeup EARLY on our wedding day (8 bridesmaids, myself, 2 moms, 1 grandma) - she mentioned this is always their goal during my trial, which is a HUGE relief for someone worried about their day-of timeline! My hair and makeup stayed all night, and my bridesmaids loved their looks. We also all appreciated how much care Jen and her team took to safety/cleanliness! Would highly recommend working with this team - they are professional, fair priced, very reliable and personable!

Stunning and Efficient

Jennifer Kinford and Jenny R. made me look and feel like the most beautiful bride in the world, but more importantly, they made sure that I still looked like myself. I knew from the moment I saw their company website that they were the beauty team for me. Before I came in for my hair and makeup trial, Jen got on FaceTime with me and analyzed my skin in order to prepare a skin care routine with recommended products that would meet my needs in preparation for my wedding day. During my hair and makeup trial she put together the exact look I was looking for even when I couldn’t articulate what I wanted. I really got to know Jen and Jennie during the trial, and learned that not only were they exceptionally talented artists but great people as well. They were so easy to talk to and I really bonded with them. On my wedding day I was so excited to see them, and they did amazing work once again. Their team got me, my 7 bridesmaids, Mom, Mother-in-Law, and brother looking our very best in a calm and orderly fashion. The best compliment I can give is that I have never had so many people tell me how beautiful I looked, but when I shared that with Jen she told me that I am beautiful, she just made me feel beautiful, and people felt that.

Jen and her team are the best!

I could not have asked for anyone better to do hair and makeup for my wedding than Jen and Jenny! They listened carefully to what my ladies and I wanted and created the perfect looks for each of us. They made us feel glamorous, but still like ourselves. They were also so fun to be around and made me feel calm and relaxed on my wedding morning. I can't recommend J.Kinford Beauty Group highly enough!

Jen is a lifesaver!

When covid derailed our original wedding plans and I was unable to have Jen actually do my makeup, she went above and beyond to make sure I was wedding ready! Jen sent me a list of makeup I needed with all the links and spent over an hour with me on zoom going over how to apply the makeup! She was an absolute life saver. She answered any questions I had over text and continued to check in with me to make sure I was comfortable enough doing my own wedding makeup. I'm so thankful for her! And I have to add - the trial I did with her pre-pandemic was PERFECT! She achieved exactly what I was going for, she made me look like myself - just polished and very natural.

Jennifer had reached out to me about a year ago and we instantly clicked. She is SUPER talented, professional and takes a lot of pride in her work. Her level of expertise and skill is something to admire in this profession and I have no doubts when I refer my brides to her that they will leave 100% satisfied. Whoever books Jennifer for their wedding or special occasion will not be disappointed!
