    Amazing service, communication, and quality



    After being left without a hair or MUA 3 weeks before my wedding, I contacted Sophia with Graceful Beauty KC. She assembled a team of 4 people in less than 24 hours and absolutely saved the day. She got trials scheduled for myself for both services and was excellent with communication. Her contract is clear and you know exactly what you’re getting. Her team that provided services was excellent, included Bree and Copper for hair and Tai and Lexcee for makeup. All 4 did an amazing job but special kudos to Tai. She went above and beyond, her attention to detail was amazing and her makeup lasted through the party without difficulty. She even stayed late to put together touch up kits. I would recommend all 4 of our artists to anyone and would choose Graceful Beauty again in a heartbeat!

    This team was awesome!

    I worked personally with Sabina, and she was absolutely incredible. We talked and laughed the whole way through, and she was wonderful at recommending products and offered tutorials! The whole team, though, was fabulous. All of the bridesmaids looked great. I highly recommend this team! Sophia is very responsive and organized.

    Graceful Beauty KC's reply:

    Thank you for your review Carly! I am so happy to hear that Sabina and the rest of our team were able to make your experience with us a memorable one.

    We take pride in making sure each bride has their perfect look on their wedding day, and we're so glad you found this to be true. Thank you again for choosing Graceful Beauty KC!

    Amazing!!!

    I found Sophia through The Knot and could not be more happy with my experience and how everything came out. From the first point of contact she was incredibly nice and listened to everything I was thinking and wanting for my big day. Sophia and her team are awesome! Was always very responsive if I had any questions after booking. She did a phenomenal job and felt so beautiful that day.

    Graceful Beauty KC's reply:

    Thank you Kathleen for your review! I'm so glad you were able to find us and have a wonderful experience. We love hearing from our clients, especially when they are as happy as you were on your wedding day. Thank you again for choosing Graceful Beauty KC, we hope to work with you again in the future!

    A fairytale experience!

    I hired Graceful Beauty for my September 18th wedding! Sophia and her team (Copper and Jaci) did hair for 9 and makeup for 4.

    It took 2 tries during the hair and makeup trial, but Sophia nailed the classy, timeless updo I envisioned. Sophia created a natural, but stunning makeup look on her first try!

    In the months leading up to the wedding, Sophia stayed in touch. She created a color coded schedule that included the stylist and a time slot. I filled in bridal party names and sent pictures of their natural hair and requested hairstyles.

    The day of the wedding, Graceful Beauty showed up on time at 11 am. At one point, we ran a little behind. Thankfully, there was extra time built into the schedule so we finished on time! Sophia paid careful attention to detail on my hair and makeup. My hair and makeup turned out perfectly and I couldn’t have felt more beautiful!

    My wedding day was 90 degrees and sunny. However, Graceful Beauty’s makeup withstood tears and sweat. Normally, I have a shiny spot on my face, but Graceful Beauty’s makeup covered it up the whole night. During bride and groom pictures around 6 pm, my left eyelash started to fall off. Luckily, my MOH quickly fixed it before the reception. Additionally, pieces of my updo fell out while I was dancing, but it wasn’t noticeable in pictures.

    Overall, working with Graceful Beauty was a wonderful experience and I’d recommend them for any special event you have coming up!

    Graceful Beauty KC's reply:

    Thank you so much for the review Jen. I am sorry to hear that your False lash fell off towards the end of the night, that is the first we have heard of that happening! We set high standards for ourselves and appreciate the review - both good & bad ❤

    Felt my most beautiful!

    Sophia was so helpful and did exactly what we asked of her! Her dream team was amazing and so fun to hang with morning of! I felt so beautiful and myself, which was so important to me! Loved it!

    Graceful Beauty KC's reply:

    Ryenn, thank you for the great review! We’re so happy you loved your experience and we can’t wait to service you again in the future. Until then, we’re here if you need anything.

    Wonderful Communication! Great service!

    Communication with Sophia was awesome from the start! I was delightfully surprised when she first gave me her personal cell phone number to chat about the details of my day! We also exchanged inspiration photos this way, which made it super easy for me!

    I was offered a trial run through, and when it didn't turn out right with one artist, Sophia stepped in and saved the day. She personally did another trial with me, free of charge, and promised she would be there for me instead on the big day! For my eye shadow, we talked about matching the bridesmaid's dress color and adding in a shimmery gold touch to match with our wedding colors. It was so nice of her to take such interest and really collaborate with me in this way for the look.

    They were early on the wedding day, ready and waiting for my girls and I to get in the chair, which was a relief, because we were crunched for time as it was at our getting ready venue.

    The service was wonderful! Sophia double checked that I liked everything from the trial still and then got to work! When I looked in the mirror at the end, I felt stunning! It was perfect, in that it was glam for me, but still looked natural. (I don't typically wear much makeup.) I felt so special after she finished up and couldn't wait for my Dad and my future husband to see how I looked!

    I felt incredible and got sooo many compliments! My lipstick/stain even stayed on until after I ate, I didn't reapply once!

    Graceful Beauty KC's reply:

    Hey Ally! Thank you for the review! So glad that you felt stunning on your wedding day, that is always my goal. Thank you for letting us be part of your beautiful wedding.

    Sabina was great

    I live in California and wasn’t able to do a trial, but the day of my wedding she knew exactly what I wanted. I was so happy with my makeup and all my girls looked beautiful. She was very professional, organized and clean. She made all of us feel very comfortable during the pandemic, following of all the CDC guidelines.

    Graceful Beauty KC's reply:

    Thank you so much for leaving a 5-star rating, Shannon! It's truly appreciated. I'll be sure to pass your thoughtful words to Sabina. Please keep us in mind for any future services.

    Exceptional Service!

    Sophia and Sabina were fabulous to work with! When I had some concerns with trial hair and makeup and had some things I wasn't happy with or wanted to change, both ladies were able to tweak our plan for both and made everything just perfect for the big day. I trusted them completely to make my hair and makeup vision come to life! They were on-time, professional and always quick to respond to my texts when booking and planning! Everybody was so impressed with their work and I would highly recommend both for your hair and makeup needs, not only for your wedding, but for any other big event you may want to get dolled up for!

    Graceful Beauty KC's reply:

    Thank you for the 5 star review and for choosing Graceful Beauty KC to do your wedding hair and makeup. We hope to service you again in the near future. If you you have any questions about products or services, don't hesitate to reach out.

    Absolutely Fantastic!

    Sophia at graceful beauty was amazing to work with, she was very punctual in our emails and put together a great timeline for us to get ready. At our wedding we had Makayla and Jaci helping us get beautiful. They were so fun to talk to and did an amazing job with everyone's hair. Makayla did my hair and makeup, I have never felt so beautiful. They both helped make our special day fantastic!!

    Thank you for the review Brittney. I'm glad Jaci and Makayla made you and your bridal party feel beautiful and comfortable. We hope to service you again in the future.

    Extraordinary level of service!

    Sophia was quick to respond to our initial inquiry & provided lots of detail on her bid for make up services. My daughter, the bride, had a trial makeup the week prior to her wedding. She took in pictures of the look she wanted and they did a beautiful job creating the same feel but very personalized. We added an extra person to our group last minute and Sophia was able to work her Into the schedule for wedding day. The team arrived early, they were very prepared. All five ladies who had makeup done looked gorgeous & were happy with their looks. I would highly recommend Graceful Beauty!

    Graceful Beauty KC's reply:

    Hi Brenda! Thank you for the review. We had a great time and everyone looked radiant! We hope to service you again in the future.

    Perfection!

    Sophia was INCREDIBLE and her staff was nothing short of amazing. They provided amazing hair and make-up services and my girls and I looked stunning! My mother wasn’t feeling the best on my wedding day and Sophia took it upon herself to do my mother’s makeup while she was laying in bed.. I don’t know any other makeup artist who would have done this!!! If I could give her 1000000 stars I would!! Thank you for your unbelievable service and taking off so much stress on my end to make my special day perfect!

    Graceful Beauty KC's reply:

    Mikaela, thank you for trusting Graceful Beauty KC on your most important day. You and your bridal party looked STUNNING on your wedding day.

    Hair+Makeup for bride, 6 bridesmaids, MOB, & MOG

    Sophia took all the stress out of getting ready on my wedding day. We had 9 women getting hair+makeup and we finished ahead of schedule with the awesome team she brought! I felt like everyone got special attention and felt pampered as the bride. I never once felt rushed, was encouraged to make sure I ate, and got one last touch up before she left. My skin was flawless from the first pictures in the summer heat to the last dance and those lashes didn’t even budge once :D

    After the first trial a full year before our wedding date Sophia was always available by text & email if I had any questions and had great communication leading up to the day with myself and our day of coordinator. I would highly recommend Graceful Beauty KC if you want to feel completely taken care of on your big day!!

    Thank you for putting your trust in us to be part of your wedding day. You all were amazing to work with! We hope to work with you again in the near future.

    Fantastic to work with!

    Sophia is a wonderful individual to work with. She’s is incredibly professional and will work very hard to ensure that your expectations are met. On my wedding day she fixed my hair twice after my curls fell out and was happy to do so. She arrived on time and completed seven hair styles in 5 hours. She also does an incredible job on makeup and stepped in when my makeup artist was running behind. I would definitely recommend her for your big day or special event.

    Princess for a day

    My teenage daughter left me a thank you note for how she felt after receiving Sophia’s services. She felt like a princess. You know it was awesome when your 16 year old goes to the effort to write a thank you note. Best money I spent for my sons wedding was for Sophia to do my daughters hair and makeup!

    Excellent service!

    My experience with Graceful Beauty KC during our wedding planning process was wonderful from start to finish. Communicating with Sophia during the entire process was, as others mentioned, so very easy!

    My bridesmaids hair styles as well as my hairstyle the day of our wedding turned out exactly as we hoped they would. The only change I would have made would be to have had my curls a little bit more loose and not so tightly pulled back for my half-up do, but this was 100% a personal preference and request I could have made but did not, so nothing whatsoever against Graceful Beauty and the stylists!

    If you are looking for a reliable, friendly, customer-focused and affordable hair and makeup vendor, look no further than Graceful Beauty KC. They are worth every penny and will make you feel so beautiful on your special day!

    Great communication and very accommodating!

    Communication with Sophia was a breeze! She was always quick to respond and so accommodating when a few members of my bridal party/family changed their minds a few weeks out and wanted to have hair and make-up services after all. She was able to add a second artist and re do the day of schedule to accommodate everyone which was so kind of her. I was happy with my trial hair and make-up and eventually was happy with my day of services as well but was a little disappointed when my artist didn’t seem to remember the look we came up with. We were able to look at pictures and talk through what I was looking for in the moment. My hair was not turning out how the artist and I were thinking so she ended up taking it out and starting over which put us behind schedule but luckily the schedule Sophia created had some extra time built in and the photographer made up the rest of the time to get back on schedule. The final look we ended up with was beautiful and with the exception of a quick touch up on curls between pictures and the ceremony (we expected this because my hair doesn’t hold curl and took pictures outside on a windy day) everything stayed perfectly the whole day. The two artists were also very accommodating the day of when 4 extra girls asked for false lashes which was not originally planned - they helped without hesitation and did not charge me. Lastly, my mom is very picky and the artist who did her hair was very patient with her and helped her find a look she was happy with which is no small feat. Overall, I am happy with the services I received and would book through them again. I would just want to make sure the artist I worked with remembered what we talked about and did at the trial to make things go a little smoother with the hair. Make up was absolutely perfect!
