    Jen is the BEST!!

    I can't say enough good things about Jen and her team - they are the absolute best!! The entire process from outreach, trial, creating a bridal party schedule, and the day of were so seamless and stress free. Jen is the sweetest and SO incredible at both hair and makeup, she took any feedback from my trial to heart and made sure I was over the moon with how I looked. Me and my bridesmaids felt incredible and it is all thanks to Jen and her team!!

    Jen and her team are a MUST!

    From my hair and makeup trial to our wedding day, I had the best experience working with Jen. She was extremely professional, communicative, and collaborative. Jen did an incredible job with my hair and makeup making it last all day! She elevated my wedding look, but also made me feel like myself and that's why I enjoyed working with her so much. Her team also did a great job with my bridesmaids as they all looked stunning. I would not hesitate hiring Jen for your wedding day look!

    Utter perfection! Hire Jen!

    Jen and her team made my mom, bridesmaids and myself feel amazing on my wedding day. She was calm, fun to talk with and so, so talented! We all loved our looks - and they lasted until we jumped in the pool 🙃

    The best!!!

    I could not recommend Jen enough! I am the type of person who immediately redoes their hair as soon as they get home from the salon and I have never in my life liked my makeup when it's been done professionally and I was seriously obsessed with Jen's work! I have red hair and extremely pale skin and have found that when I get my hair and makeup done, all too often makeup and hair artists just try to do what they normally do on people with other hair and skin tones and it just doesn't work on me, but Jen is such an amazing listener and is so good at interpreting your wedding vision and giving you exactly what you were picturing! I hate looking at pictures of brides that look nothing like themselves, or just completely overdone on their wedding, and Jen does such a good job of making you look exactly like yourself, just little better! Jen also brought such a fun and calm energy to our wedding morning, I really appreciated both her work and her presence!

    Incredible!

    I really struggled with finding a hair and makeup artist for my wedding -- everyone I spoke with talked about how they wanted to make me feel like a pretty princess, which is very much NOT my vibe. As a bi woman marrying a man, I desperately wanted to find someone who would have the right understanding and attitude about my background and not make me feel like I was making a bad choice by going for a more natural look. Jen was all of that and more! Despite being very booked up, she still managed to fit my wedding into her schedule. I was concerned about the distance -- she's based in Palm Desert and my wedding was in LA -- but her travel fee was extremely reasonable. She did a rehearsal session for no charge before my engagement photoshoot, and the moment I met her I knew I'd made the right choice. She's super fun, very warm, put me at ease immediately, and did an amazing job on top of it! I trusted her so much after that one session that I drove out to Palm Desert for a haircut a mere few weeks before my wedding, and was thrilled with the result (she's soooo good with curly hair). She was an absolute gem for my wedding: I felt so beautiful, while still looking like myself. My hair and makeup didn't budge all night, and I felt just as put together hours later as I did at the start. I truly can't recommend her enough!

    Exceptional!

    Working with Jen for my wedding was an absolute pleasure-- from the first few minutes of the trial I felt right at ease, and we had a great dialogue with even better results. She made me feel very comfortable, and was the right combination of professional and warm.

    Like some other reviewers on here, I've had not-so-great experiences with wedding makeup, and Jen and I were able to troubleshoot my past experiences and make sure I felt my best for the wedding, and I couldn't be happier with where we landed.

    She is really communicative throughout the entire process, and very client-friendly. I wish every hair stylist I've gone to in my life was more like Jen!!

    She also did makeup and hair for my mother and sister, and they were thrilled with their results. Unlike me, they didn't have a trial, but Jen jumped right in and knew exactly the right questions to ask and how to meet their needs.

    All of our wedding vendors were fabulous, but Jen was truly extraordinary and I'd work with her again in a heartbeat.

    Amazing Make Up Artist!

    Jen and her team were an absolute joy to work with. From the moment I messaged Jen, I knew she would be a perfect fit for my wedding day beauty dreams! We met for a trial before the big day, which was calming and reassuring for me as a destination bride. She made me feel as though I was chatting with a longtime friend and I had no worries that I was in great hands! She also was so efficient at communicating leading up to the wedding and made a great schedule for day of. She has a very calming, warm energy too which was perfect day of wedding. She executed my vision of hollywood glam waves that frame the face perfectly. Definitely my favorite hair I've ever had. My bridesmaids and Mother in law all looked stunning and they worked on all of them in a timely fashion, but listened to their feedback and ideas. My hair stayed in place all day…from the first picture to the last! Thank you again, Jen and team!

    An Absolute Rockstar!

    Where do I even begin with how incredible Jen is? Not only is she gorgeous (literally a rockstar), hilarious, and such a calming presence on your wedding day, but she is absolutely amazing at her craft! I came from out of state for an elopement, and Jen executed my vision perfectly without ever having met me in person. She made me feel like a beautiful, glowing, elevated version of myself - I was SO worried that I wouldn't feel like me on my wedding day, but in Jen's incredibly capable and talented hands, I had nothing to worry about. Additionally, she was incredibly communicative and helpful during the entire planning process. I can't sing her praises or recommend her enough!!

    The wedding dream team!

    Jen and her team were the most incredible HMU team I have ever worked with. They are true artists who deeply know how to bring out / enhance natural beauty. The whole process of working with Jen Plus Colour was seamless - from contracting, to the trial, and to the big day. The visions that me and my wedding party had where brought to life. I have never felt so beautiful and confident as I did on my wedding day and I owe a lot of gratitude to this team for making it happen!

    I cannot recommend Jen Plus Colour enough - if you choose this team, you are guaranteed to look and feel your best on your special day!

    I promise you won't regret booking Jen

    Jen is AAAAAAMAZING. Had the best experience working with her for my hair and make-up for my wedding. She made me feel so beautiful, and kept everything super natural since I don't usually wear much make-up. I felt just like myself on my wedding day. Her hairstyle was also insanely beautiful and kept up all night long. Not to mention, Jen was the coolest/ chillest person to spend the morning of my wedding with, everyone loved her and she just made me feel great all around. Don't wait to book her! I also got an amazing haricut from her and her talents seem to be never-ending.

    Amazing and inclusive!

    We cannot recommend, Jen enough! Jen is one of the most incredible people we have ever worked with. She is kind, talented, and inclusive of a diversity of clients. For my wife and I, having a hair and make-up professional who was aligned with our values and could do great work with various hair textures and skin colors was absolutely essential for our wedding day, and Jen + her team more than delivered.

    Jen was easy to work with from start to finish, and was amazing at receiving feedback. She made us feel at ease on our wedding day, and all of our family and friends loved working with her.

    One of my favorite things about her business is that she conducts her prices based on length of hair rather than gender. As a queer, interracial couple, we just knew she was the one as soon we spoke with her. She is dynamite, and such a treasure in an industry that is heteronormative. Thank you Jen for everything!

    Best HMU in Palm Springs!

    Jen Martens is a true artist and I am so lucky to have secured her for my wedding hair and makeup! My makeup on the big day was transformative while still looking totally natural and the beachy waves she put in my hair were divine (and stayed put the entire night!). Jen is also exceptionally chill and being in her presence in the hours leading up to the ceremony provided a lot of welcome calm on an otherwise very hectic day. She’s also very active on IG and offers a lot of incredible makeup tips so I’m delighted to continue learning from her from afar. Thank you Jen!

    100% would recommend Jen!

    I hired Jen for my rehearsal dinner and wedding hair and makeup and I couldn't have been happier with my decision! Jen was super easy to work with, organized, and so nice! She listened to my vision and my hair and makeup turned out exactly as I was imagining for both events! She even helped me brainstorm fun 60s hairstyles for my themed rehearsal dinner.

    Leading up to the wedding Jen was super proactive in reaching out about the hair and makeup schedule for my bridal party which gave me one less thing to worry about on the big day. She and her team were super prompt, and friendly, and we even finished ahead of schedule! I would 100% recommend hiring Jen and her team for any hair and makeup needs-- she is a pro!

    10/10 Recommend!

    Jen Plus Colour is amazing!!! I felt sooo beautiful and confident on my wedding day and a huge part of that is because of Jen!
    Jen was such a pleasure to work with. She was so responsive and professional from the initial email till the wedding day. She was so great at the hair and makeup trial, taking thorough notes and allowing me to try 2 different hair styles, and thank goodness as I ended up going with my second option!!
    The day of the wedding, Jen and her team were punctual, professional, and fun! I made some tweaks to my makeup the day of and Jen had no issues and exceeded my expectations.
    If you are looking for a hair and makeup artist, look no further—hire Jen Plus Colour!! Thank you Jen!

    Jen is amazing!

    Jen made me and my family look and feel fabulous on my big day! As someone who has no idea what I'm doing when it comes to hair and makeup, I was a bit intimidated trying to a find a hair and makeup artist. However, Jen made it easy and was so kind throughout the entire process. She has a real knack for doing a subtle natural look that me look great, but also still feeling like myself. So happy I was able to book her and would recommend her 1000x over!

    Jen Plus Colour- The Perfect Getting Ready Crew

    Jen is amazing! She is chill, down to earth, sweet, and has the best vibe. I honestly felt like I was just seeing an old friend to have my hair and make-up done for the wedding when my sister and I saw her for the trial. She made me feel so comfortable (even when I was so hungry I had to eat a little during the trial). Jen was so kind, professional, and accommodating for my mom on the wedding day when she was having a hard time deciding how she wanted her hair. Plus, Jen was so understanding in the beginning and through email communication when I had a bridesmaid cancel at the last moment. Jen and her team are the perfect addition for a relaxing and fun Palm Springs Wedding. I'm so happy she was able to do my hair and make-up for the wedding. Thanks again for being a part of making it a magical day, Jen!

    Awesome experience with Jen

    I booked Jen for our mid-pandemic wedding in April 2021 based on a recommendation from a friend who also used her services for their Palm Springs wedding and loved her. Jen was very responsive and also super flexible after we had to postpone our wedding a few months. She is also very personable and such a delight to talk to. She did my and my mom’s hair and make-up, and we both loved how everything turned out! Jen is also very professional, and I would highly recommend her for any event!

    Excellent experience and so happy!!

    Jen did my hair and makeup for my wedding in April 2021. She was amazing from start to finish!! She was professional and did an incredible job making me feel beautiful. We didn't even do a trial run and she still executed my hair/makeup vision flawlessly! She asked me questions along the way throughout our hair and makeup session, which ensured an style I was happy with. I felt at ease and was so happy with the outcome! Plus she is just a wonderful and cool person. :)

    Jen is Incredible!

    Jen and her wonderful team were such a pleasure to work with, and made what could have been a chaotic morning (hair and makeup for 14 people!) into a relaxing, fun time for all. Jen is really cool, incredibly fun and easy to talk to and brought great energy into the day!
    We got married in Palm Springs on a sunny and hot day. Everyone was so happy with how their hair and makeup turned out, and even more excited that our looks lasted through pictures, the ceremony, a jam packed dance floor and well into the night! I do not normally wear a lot of makeup and Jen created a natural look that made me feel so comfortable. Jen created touch up lip kits for everyone to reapply lipstick throughout the night! If I could give 10 stars I would!

    Hire jen, she's the best!

    Look no further - you have found your hair and makeup person for your wedding!! After seeing her work on Instagram and then reading the many amazing reviews on Jen, it was a no-brainer to go with her. She was so responsive, so helpful and truly AMAZING AT WHAT SHE DOES. I have never felt more beautiful in my life!! We planned our wedding before Covid and through the couple years there were many edits. Jen was so helpful every step of the way - even when other vendors wouldn't even respond to me. She is just soooooo good at her craft I felt like I had nothing to worry about on the day of and it was true. This close to switching to her for my regular hair color and cuts but I live 2.5 hours away from her :(

    Thank you X10000 JEN FOR MAKING US ALL LOOK PERFECT!

    The Best There Is

    I hired Jen Martens based on her stellar reviews on Wedding Wire and Yelp and her portfolio pics on Instagram. I was looking for a HMU that did both hair and makeup and practiced more of a natural look. I booked Jen as one of my first vendors over a year in advance of my October 2020 wedding. When Covid19 hit and my husband and I didn’t know if we were going to be able to hold our wedding after all. In July, we decided to downsize our small, 30 person wedding and do a micro-wedding of just 9 instead. Jen offered numerous options if the wedding had to be moved or cancelled. She was always optimistic, flexible, and reassuring in her emails especially considering all of the uncertainty this year brought not only for us but for herself and her business. I felt like I was chatting with a friend that I’d never even met.

    Jen and I ended up moving my hair and makeup trial several times due to Covid closures but I was finally able to go in and see her in mid-September. We tried a few different looks for hair and I was obsessed with my makeup. I still looked like me, just beautified. She listened to what I wanted, was patient, and always checked to make sure I was happy with her work both at the trial and on the wedding day. Jen was also fastidious about keeping her station in the salon clean. I felt very safe regarding her kit and sanitization practices.

    Jen was extremely professional with sending contracts and reminders, she worked seamlessly with our wedding planner for scheduling, and was just a genuine pleasure to work with. It was so fun chatting with her the morning of my wedding while she got me all ready to go and I really felt so comfortable and safe in her care. She made my mom and I feel absolutely beautiful! She is an all-star hair and makeup artist and you 100% want her on your wedding team.

    Jen did the hair and makeup for our wedding, and she was amazing! She is so lovely to work with and did such a beautiful job on everyone. She listened carefully to what each person wanted and beautifully executed each person's vision. I would highly recommend her to any bride looking for a natural look!

    Best hair and make-up stylist for your wedding

    I hired Jen for our wedding in October 2019. Prior to the actual wedding, I did a trial and extended my appointment to include a cut and colour. This is the way to go so she could cut/colour my hair to the wedding day style. Jen gave me all the confidence in the world that she and her team would deliver on our wedding day...and she did. Every person in the wedding party looked fantastic. She was always on time, very organized, and a genuine pleasure to work with. All of our vendors knew of Jen as she is truly one of the best!

    Loved our Hair and Makeup with Jen!!!

    Jen and her team are truly amazing! They are so professional and talented and did a superb job of hair and make up for my daughter's wedding oct 27th/19. We are from out of town so our wedding planner highly recommended Jen and her team. The bride and her bridesmaids were all so happy with their results. I have never ever liked my hair after getting it done but my daughter convinced me as mother of the bride I needed to do it... so I did and I have never loved my hair as much, Jen did a really beautiful job, really loved it!!! She also coloured my hair a few days prior to wedding and love that also. she has a great team we are so happy and photos look so good!!! Thank you Jen!!!!
