    Hire Kristin!

    I can't say enough great things about Kristin. From when I was first communicating with her through to my wedding day, she was absolutely fabulous. She promptly replied to inquiries and was so personable. When it came time for my trial, I had general ideas and pictures for what I liked, and she created a look that was better than anything I could think of myself. She did a wonderful job with hair and makeup for me and my sister, makeup for my maid of honor, and hair for my mother. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day, and the hair and makeup lasted all day. Not to mention that she's just such a fun person to be around!

    Loved my hair and makeup

    As someone who doesn’t wear makeup regularly I was nervous about it for my wedding. I also have very thick hair that can be a lot to style. I’m so glad I found Kristin! She responded quickly and was so easy to work with. She arrived early on our wedding day and kept us on time and even ended a little early. She made my makeup very natural looking and I absolutely loved my hair. I’m so happy we found her!

    HIRE HER! You wont regret it :)

    Kristin was a dream to work with, from start to finish. She was prompt to reach out to me after I inquired about her services via her website and she gave me detailed answers to every little question that I had! In every interaction with Kristin, she made me feel like the most special bride she's ever worked with. She was so personable and knowledgeable and I felt confident and comfortable in her hands!

    She kept in contact with me throughout the year long engagement and made scheduling the trial makeup/hair day a breeze. The trial went perfectly and I have never felt more beautiful. Not only did she do my hair and makeup perfectly, but we chatted the whole trial and she truly made me feel so comfortable.

    On the day of the wedding, she arrived early and ready to get to work! She brought such a wonderful energy and I was able to relax knowing that Kristin was going to get me ready to walk down the aisle. She even put a little bit of makeup on my four and a half year old daughter. My hair and makeup looked PERFECT and it lasted all night long.

    If you need a hair and makeup artist, look no further! Thank you Kristin!!!

    Amazing HMUA!

    I loved working with Kristin and her team! Initially, my husband and I weren't planning on splurging on hair and makeup for the wedding, but after our wedding date was moved due to COVID, we were able to adjust the budget slightly. I'm so glad that 1. We decided to pay for hair and makeup and 2. We decided to go with Kristin.

    Not only was her work gorgeous and just the style I was looking for, she also is so down to earth and easy to talk to! She was immensely responsive and helpful during the planning process - not to mention super positive the whole time.

    Kristin was able to take my vision and bring it to life in the trial and executed it even more flawlessly for the wedding itself. She and her team killed it with the timeline the morning of, as well, with 5 bridesmaids, the mother of the bride, the mother of the groom, and myself all getting hair and makeup done.

    Without hesitation, I would recommend Kristin for your wedding, and I'll definitely be bugging her for any future HMUA needs of mine.

    So talented and collaborative - amazing experience

    From her very first email, Kristin totally put me at ease about her passion for beauty and finding the perfect look for my wedding day. Her website is super easy to navigate with upfront information about your investment. She worked with me over email for several months and provided expert advice on hair extensions (my maid of honor could not get over the perfect color match), selecting a unique hair piece, and overall guiding me through every detail to achieve my requested "not bridal" look. We did a full 2.5 hour trial to develop a roadmap for the day and her finished work was amazing. Kristin was also a wonderful presence on the morning we got ready especially since I had a smaller bridal party and her conversation definitely kept our mood light and stress-free. Kristin absolutely knows how to highlight your personal features, bring the glam, while making sure you still feel like your beautiful self!!!

    Kristin is your answer

    If you're researching vendors and looking for the short answer....USE KRISTIN!!! For those more interested in details, let me walk you through my experience:

    From my first email with Kristin I knew she was who I wanted to work with. She is informative and professional as well as personable and comforting. Planning a wedding during Covid wasn't easy but it seemed nothing tripped her up. She was incredibly willing to work with me and what seemed to be my ever changing plans, never once making me feel like I was bothersome. She stayed in touch throughout the entire planning process and promptly answered any questions I had no matter how random or off the wall. She even helped me with a timeline when I wasn't sure how to handle one and hadn't heard back from a different vendor!

    Day of: ***I used one of Kristin's associates (who I've worked with previously) for my own hair and makeup***
    Kristin and her team made every single one of my bridesmaids feel incredible. My Maid of Honor had never had professional makeup done and was very uncomfortable at the idea, well Kristin handled that with ease. I must have heard my MOH say 10 times or more "I just wish I could do this every day". As a bride there is no better feeling than knowing your closest people are being taken care of and Kristin nails that. The team was so incredibly timely that we ended with enough extra time to actually eat and be ready for our bus. In these weird Covid times, Kristin made sure we all felt safe and comfortable in a the intimate setting that is hair and makeup. Not to mention, I don't think I've ever seen such a clean and organized set up!

    I truly feel so grateful to have had Kristin and her team there on my big day. They made everyone feel so beautiful and confident and the whole experience was STRESS FREE. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone planning a special event or just wanting to get dolled up!

    Absolutely amazing to work with and such great work!

    This is my family's 4th time using Kristin and her team, couldn't have asked for a better hair and makeup team for my wedding day! They do such great work and are so fun to work with! So incredibly happy with how everyone looked!!!

    Amazing experience

    SUPER HAPPY with Kristin's work!!! I used Kristin as the makeup artist for my wedding and the final product was gorgeous! I felt confident, beautiful, and my look lasted all night (which is of course, super important).
    Even the trial was so much fun! Kristin has a great sense of humor and makes it a very enjoyable experience. She works with you and communicates well to get you to your goal look.
    I also want to note that Kristin made our moms look so beautiful! Accentuating their natural beauty and making sure they felt confident and special, too!

    Stop searching... Kristin is your lady!

    Words can not describe how AMAZING Kristin is! She truly is an artist. She turned this gremlin into a beauty. During my trail,, I told Kristin what I had in mind and she was able to accomplish that 1000x times better than I imagined. She took the time to explain what she was doing and why.

    Wedding day she killed it! Everyone was in LOVE with their make up and it lasted all night.

    Stop searching and book now.

    More than Just a Make Up/Hair Artist

    I am beyond happy that I was fortunate enough to have met this wonderful lady. From the first email to the day of my wedding, she has been such a shining light and such an amazing person to work with. She was also super flexible with all the changes I had to make during this crazy Pandemic and very responsive with emails/texts.
    Overall: Amazing Hair/Make Up Artist and an amazing person. You are gonna want her there the morning/afternoon of your wedding!

    Kristin is the best!!!!

    I initially met Kristin when she did my hair and makeup for a photo shoot. After talking to her for a few minutes, I just felt like we clicked! She is such a free-spirit and so fun to be around. I'm so amazed by her talent--she seemed to be doing things on the fly and somehow was just making magic happen. She made me feel like a true princess and the pictures from the shoot turned out so amazing.
    When my fiancé and I realized we wanted to get married sooner than later, I knew I wanted Kristin to do my hair and makeup. But with less than 2 months’ notice, I held my breath and sent an inquiry to Kristin. The rain dance I did to the hair and makeup gods worked—Kristin responded saying It was her only available day left in April!!
    Kristin is very responsive and organized. She sent over a timeline and prep tips for the wedding prep.
    I was a nervous wreck the morning of my wedding, but Kristin kept me at ease! My girlfriends and I loved getting ready with Kristin and Kayla (hair stylist that Kristin brought with her). They are super fun and made everyone feel special and beautiful. I couldn’t be happier with the results!
    I am so thankful and lucky that Kristin was there to help make my wedding day be the most magical day! I cannot recommend her enough!

    April 2, 2021

    Kristin was very responsive to all of my questions and a joy to talk to. She did an amazing job with my hair and makeup. I changed my mind on my hair the day of the wedding and she just rolled with it and made it look amazing. We tweaked how we wanted my makeup and I don’t regret going “full sultry!” It looked amazing in photos and she did an amazing job. All of our bridal party and my Mom also looked so amazing. I haven’t seen my mom as beautiful as she was in a long time. My Dad was smiling on her beauty from heaven!

    The only thing I would change is that I wish that for my makeup trial we had actually put fake eyelashes on so that I could see how it would look with my makeup.

    I would 100% recommend working with Kristin and would HAPPILY have her do my hair/makeup again.

    Thank you for everything Kristin! You’re the best!!

    Kristin = bomb.com

    Kristin did an amazing makeup job on all of my bridesmaids. She added lashes to everyone, including the moms, and added one girl to her chair the same day and we were still ready early so we could all get dressed! Did I also mention she's gorgeous, spunky and a lot of fun?! Well she is and you should book her!

    Kristin is a ROCKSTAR!!!

    Where do I even begin...this girl is AMAZING! Not only is she a blast to be around and talk to but her talent speaks for itself. From booking her, to the day of the wedding she was fantastic. Planning a wedding during a pandemic was no easy task and she was so flexible and patient with me through the entire process. I LOVED getting my hair and make up done by her, it was like I was just chatting with an old friend and then before you know it an hour had gone by! Truely incredibe from start to finish, everyone looked amazing. I will definitely be recommending her to anyone and everyone I know that needs hair and make up done.

    I felt beautiful and confident on my wedding day

    Kristin did mine and my mom's makeup for my wedding day. Kristin and I got along right away, and I can imagine that she gets along with all of her clients this well. She listened to what I wanted and even made a bunch of last minute changes when I asked her to. She was punctual and fun to talk to and, most importantly, she did a fantastic job with our makeup. I felt beautiful and confident all day long. I will definitely be using Kristin's services again the next time I need to feel extra beautiful and glamorous. I could not recommend her more!

    A perfect 10

    I can only give 5 stars on this platform, but if I could give Kirstin 10 stars, I would. I've never had my makeup done professionally (in fact, I virtually never wear it) so I had no idea what to expect when hiring someone for my wedding - but wow, am I glad I found Kristin. I hired to do wedding hair and makeup + a trial, and the rest of her reviews don't lie: She is an utter professional. Without much guidance from me, she knew exactly what to do to give me a simple, natural, and classic look. She even worked with me to land my trial on the morning of another friend's wedding so I didn't have to let my trial look go to waste. She is incredibly fun and easy to be around, a wonderful communicator, and most importantly, she was gracious, kind, and flexible while our wedding plans kept changing this year due to COVID. Like many couples, we switched gears from a 150-person wedding to an elopement, which involved a date change and a reduction in the size of our contract, and she took it all in stride. To boot, she was somehow able to do my hair and makeup in a way that didn't look out of place on a windy, 3,000-ft mountain peak in Shenandoah. Kristin is also taking COVID precautions very seriously, which is so important when you are spending time indoors and in such close quarters with someone. Lastly, there's no question in my mind that she's just the coolest gal in the business. I basically can't wait until I have another excuse to hire her again. So trust me, and trust all of Kristin's other reviews: If you're looking for a badass makeup artist (and she truly is an artist) to give you a classic and timeless look for your wedding or any other important event, hire her immediately.

    Incredibly talented and fun!

    Hiring Kristin was an easy choice for me! I had seen what she could do for one of my best friend's weddings, so I was so excited to hear that she was available for our wedding date! Working with her is like working with your best friend! She's sooooo great, funny, and really really beyond talented. Worth every penny just to get to hang with her while making you all fancy and pretty for your wedding :) Highly recommend

    Love kristin!

    Always love working with Kristin. I have done photoshoots with her before (I as the model and her as the makeup artist) and always loved her work. When I was considering who to hire for our wedding, my mind always came back to her. She is a super cool person and can make anyone look like supermodel/princess. My bridesmaids loved their makeup and so did I! We really liked the hair and makeup schedule she sent us to prepare for the day. She also did a great job of being mindful of COVID precautions - she (and Charlie the hairstylist she brought) both wore facemasks and had us fill out a form to make sure we weren't putting them / and they weren't putting us at risk. My bridesmaids and I wore masks the entire time (except for foundation and lip). Thank-you Kristin & Charlie for making me & my bridesmaids (& my Mom!) look fabulous on my wedding day!!!!

    Best of the best!

    Kirstin was amazing and made my hair and make-up style come to life. I received many compliments on my wedding day. She was very flexible, friendly and made me feel less stress about planning a wedding during covid season. If you are looking for someone unique and friendly, get kristin.

    Awesome experience, she just brings such good vibes to the room

    Kristin is an outgoing, free spirited, positive vibes, and overall a great person to have on your wedding day. Her professionalism and make up quality is the best I’ve ever seen. I had so many compliments on my make up even after all the tears I’ve cried and cake in my face my make up never smeared. Even my hair stay put with all the veil pulling due to wind , and all the dancing I did. I definitely recommend Kristin for your big day to make you the most beautiful bride. She is worth it

    Kristin is phenomenal!

    Kristin is an incredible artist! She accommodated me without hesitation and managed to make me look incredible. I loved that she came to my house and was just like one of the family. She finished not only on time, but early, without making us feel rushed. In fact, I was shocked when I looked at the clock. I received tons of compliments and felt so confident.
    Kristin, I wanted to thank you for creating such amazing looks for me! I think one of the most important things is to look good and feel even better on your wedding day and you made that possible for me!

    Best Makeup artist! Look no further!

    I first met Kristin in 2016 when she did the makeup for my sister's wedding and absolutely loved the outcome. So when it was my turn to get married I knew right away that I would contact Kristin and hope she was available for my big day. Fortunately she was and I couldn't have been happier. She was so accommodating for my trial (even when I had to make rearrangements last minute). When the big day came I was in no fear that Kristin would make my bridal party and I look our absolute best. She is so fun to be around and can really go for any look that you desire. Thank you, again, Kristin for being so awesome and using your talents to make me look my best for my big day!

    Highly recommend!

    Kristen was absolutely amazing! She is an incredibly talented hair/make-up artist!! Not only that she is super laid back and easy to work with! She kept me calm when I had to rearrange my whole wedding timeline last minute. She did both of my sister-in-law's weddings that I was apart of and I knew I'd be hiring her when my day came! She also works with just as great of colleagues! I would recommend her to any of my friends and family! 5 stars!!!
