Kali and her assistant were everything I could've asked for!

I have worked with Kali before a few times before my wedding. She is so talented and does amazing work! She wasn't able to do my hair and makeup on my wedding day but her assistant Ashley was wonderful. She did my hair and makeup perfectly and she was very timely as well. I would absolutely recommend Ashley and Kali to anyone that is looking for the best at a great price!

From a Photographer: You NEED Kali!

I am a wedding photographer and videographer and have worked with Kali on several projects and shoots and I am writing this review because she is the BEST makeup artist I have ever come across. As a photographer, it is important that makeup translates well on camera, and Kali does an incredible job at making everyone look great! What I love most about Kali is her personality, she is someone who has a calming present and encouraging spirit about her, something everyone needs around them getting ready for their wedding. If you are looking for a makeup artist, STOP looking, and hire Kali! You won't find better!

Bride & Bridal Party Hair and Makeup

I had Kali do my hair and makeup for my wedding, as well as, the bridal party hair and make up. Kali made the entire experience smooth and stress free for me. She was professional and provided each of us with the perfect hair/make up for my wedding day. Kali's customer service was excellent and she asked for my vision of hair/makeup ideas early to make sure she could deliver on the day of the wedding. She also provided a trial in advance to make sure she matched my vision for my big day. Kali also provided a day-of schedule to help me plan out the timeline for the day, which was extremely helpful. On the day of, Kali and another stylist arrived early with everything they needed to get the entire bridal party (4 bridesmaids and 2 mothers) and myself ready within the timeline. She also provided touch-up kits for us after she was finished, in case anything went wrong during the day. I would highly recommend Kali to anyone that wants to look beautiful on a special day!!

The absolute best hair/makeup artist

Kali is so great to work with! I have worked with her several times and she is honestly the best! She is so creative and such a joy for clients and vendors to be around! While Kali is amazing at doing classic wedding looks, she is also amazing at being able to think outside to box and create one of a kind looks. I also love the fact that Kali is great at working with all hair and skin types. Her work accentuates natural beauty and makes her clients feel beautiful and carefree!

I look forward to working with her again!

Best experience I could have asked for!

Working with Kali was one of the easiest pieces of my wedding. She was so easy (and fun!) to communicate with, it barely felt like wedding planning. I had saved a variety of hair and makeup styles I liked and when showing them to Kali, couldn't make up m mind exactly what I wanted. In the trial run she was able to get a sense of what I wanted and combined different pieces of the images I showed her to create a one of a kind look that was perfect for me. I also hate when makeup is caked on and Kali was amazing at making myself and my bridesmaids look beautiful and natural without just slathering us with makeup. I would choose her 100 times over if I could! (Photos by the incredible Maddy Williams Photography)

Kali is fantastic

My wedding was originally back in June 2020 and of course I had all of my vendors picked out and ready to go, including Kali. Unfortunately due to COVID-19 we had to push our wedding back to August like a month prior to our original date. I was scambling to get all my vendors to move with me. Kali was so sweet about it and understood everything. She said she would come whenever I needed her to which lifted one weight off my chest. When I got my trial done she took all necessary precautions for the virus and still made me look fabulous! This was one of the first and only times I've ever had makeup put on my face and I have never had false eyelashes before. She talked me through it and made sure I was comfortable with everything she was putting on. I showed her some inspiration photos for both hair and makeup and she absolutely nailed both. I would absolutely recommend Kali for anyone looking to get thier makeup and hair done for thier wedding.

Amazing Naturally Curly Hair and Makeup!!

Kali did an incredible job with my hair and makeup for my wedding. I was originally going to have a friend do my hair/makeup but we had to shrink our wedding down to family only due to COVID and I had to find a stylist pretty close to the wedding date. Kali was extremely responsive, professional, and organized. Her upfront COVID-19 policies made me feel good about hiring her during the pandemic. I wanted to use my natural hair texture but I was pretty nervous about how it would turn out, but Kali worked collaboratively with me to make sure I looked great for my wedding day! From initial contact to hair trial to the big day, Kali made the whole process easy and stress-free. I am super grateful to her for making me look like a million bucks on my big day!
