Rockstar Team!!

I loved my experience working with Kristi, Krystal, and Cammy at WINK Hair + Makeup for my wedding. The team ensured that all 8 ladies in my wedding party looked flawless and gave them a look that was perfect for my wedding day. I specifically wanted a makeup artist who was familiar with Asian features and Krystal delivered incredible results!

As a bride, they eased all of my anxieties through their professionalism and incredible skills. We were 30 minutes behind schedule when we started the whole hair and makeup process but the team worked efficiently and we ended up being 20 minutes ahead so I could enjoy the rest of my wedding day!
The entire experience was so relaxing and enjoyable—I honestly felt pampered every step of the way. If you want to feel like your best self on your wedding day, I wholeheartedly recommend WINK Hair and Makeup. They truly exceeded all expectations, and I’m so thankful to them for helping me feel absolutely gorgeous!

Photos are from my hair and makeup trial and they seamlessly incorporated my late grandmother's necklace into my hairstyle which I absolutely loved

Kristi did an amazing job with mine and all my bridesmaids makeup for my wedding day. I look back at my wedding pictures and can't believe how spectacular she made me and my girls look! She also had a woman named Theresa that did mine and my girls' hair, and Theresa also did an outstanding job on wedding day. They were very professional and honored all of our requests for our looks. I would recommend Kristi to anyone in need of a wonderful makeup artist! :)

Kristi was recommended to me by a photographer friend of mine. I am also a photographer, so I have a good eye for detail. My friend told me that Kristi is the best makeup artist in the area and she definitely didn't disappoint!

For my trial, she looked at some pinterest inspiration images and matched the look almost exactly. I felt it was a little too heavy once I saw it on myself and she was able to tone it down and took feedback really easily. The second time she did my makeup was for my bridal portrait. I asked her to make a few color tweaks and she nailed it on the first try.

She works efficiently and is very laid back. This helped me stay calm as well. I don't like super high energy people around me when I'm under pressure! She finished early, and this is a big deal because when makeup or hair runs late, it makes the rest of the day so much harder!

She has a ton of makeup and you won't need to bring a thing. Some makeup artists ask you to bring your own foundation, which I think is kind of lame since you many people use makeup with SPF in it, but that doesn't work for photos. (She actually taught me that)

Kristi is awesome and I would highly recommend her!

Kristi was absolutely amazing! I went back and forth on using a makeup artist as for my wedding as a place to save cost. I contacted Kristi a few weeks before my wedding and she made it work. My makeup looked amazing and so much better in photos than I ever could have done. She also helped touch up my family's make up. The makeup lasted all night and looked great. It was the first time I used fake eyelashes and they really made a difference. Please book Kristi for your wedding or other photo shoots, you will not regret it!!!

Kristi was awesome. We had a little bit of a hiccup with my venue to start the day, but she was great and helped to make me feel better about the situation. She was even able to do the makeup for an extra person at the last minute. Everything turned out great and my makeup looked perfect all day and night!

Kristi was beyond the best make-up artist I've ever worked with. She was incredibly helpful during our trials and helped me nail down the perfect look. On the day of the wedding she was prompt, prepared, professional and so much fun. My bridesmaids and I looked stunning and received countless compliments at the reception and weeks after. I can't wait to have her play with my face for a future event. :-)

I am so glad I found Kristi to do my makeup for my wedding. Not only is she so sweet but a real pro. My makeup looked beautiful! Kristi was very professional from the early communications to the makeup trial and finally to the big day. The airbrush makeup looked flawless and my pictures came out beautiful. Kristi was a huge part of this and I am so grateful to her for making my bridal party and myself so beautiful!! Thank you Kristi!

Kristi was incredibly professional and kind. She listened to the ideas that I had for my makeup and tweaked them so that it was flattering for my face. She made the whole process very fun and relaxing. I will certainly be recommending her to my friends!

Kristi is the best!! She was a big part in making my day special. My makeup looked amazing, and photographed very well! She also worked great with all the bridesmaids and the moms! When my bridesmaids were late that morning, Kristi even helped family members put up some last minute decorations while she waited for the bridesmaids to arrive. She is truly talented and was the best vendor to work with! You will be so happy if you go with her!
