Incredibly Talented Hair and Make-up Artist

I don’t even know where to begin with how amazingly talented Khara is! When choosing someone for hair and make-up for my wedding day, I was honestly very nervous, because I have been in weddings and haven’t had the most wonderful experiences, but with Khara, this was NOT the case. From the moment I walked into the salon for my trial, I knew I made the right choice. Khara put me right at ease by just listening to my vision for the wedding day and discussing what would look best. Khara did exactly what I wanted and made sure I had pictures, so I could think about changes I’d possibly want. After the trial, hair and make-up were hardly a thought until the wedding day, because I knew I was in good hands. On the wedding day, both Khara and her sister were so wonderful to work with. Their calm personalities will put you right at ease on your special day. Each and every one of my girls had perfect hair and beautiful make-up. As each girl finished getting their hair done, we all just so impressed with how amazing it looked! For my hair, I did request a couple of adjustments, and Khara made it even more perfect than I could have imagined. My make-up was just what I wanted, enough to show I had make-up on, but still very natural. If you are looking to wear fake eyelashes, Khara will make it seem like they all natural!! All of our hair stayed completely perfect all day. One of my bridesmaids even slept in her hair and when she woke up, it still looked beautiful! Khara is a truly a talented hair and make-up artist and I would highly recommend her for anyone’s special day!

Pretty & Perfect

I hired Khara and co to do my wedding hair and makeup after I was impressed with her at my sister-in-laws wedding several years ago. As expected, everything was flawless. The team works efficiently and adhered to their estimated timeline. I had an array of bridesmaids, some who wear no makeup ever (me) and some who are very particular. Nonetheless, everyone was not only happy, but impressed with their hair and makeup. I'll never stop recommending this team. Thanks for making me feel like a queen and for helping make my day feel like a fairytale.

Amazing Service!

Khara was wonderful to work with! During our trial she paid attention and really took the time to create a look that we both were comfortable with. She was able to enhance our makeup from normal everyday to something special without taking away what made us feel like us.
When it came the day of the wedding Khara and her assistant Kayla were on time and were able to get 10 of us ready for the wedding! Every single one of our bridesmaids looked like themselves. Khara and Kayla were able to bring out the personality of each of us through hair and makeup. They had such a fun and calming presence the morning of our wedding. Honestly we could not recommend Khara enough!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
