Wedding October 2025

I felt BEAUTIFUL on my wedding day! Ky and team did an incredible job with me and the wedding party. I first met Ky when she did my sister's wedding makeup and I knew I wanted to feel that beautiful again on my wedding day. She works with all her clients months before the big day to make sure both the canvas (your skin) and makeup are impeccable before and on your big day. Take every recommendation she gives, she knows what she is doing :). Her effervescent character and soothing aura kept me, my bridesmaids, and my mother/mother-in-law all excited and calm before the big day started! If you have a wedding or event in the DMV, run to have Ky be your makeup artist.

Loved working with Ky!

Ky was awesome - she was friendly, calm, professional, and made me look amazing! First, she was very flexible with my timing and needs - I planned my wedding 2 months out and lucked out that it was a Sunday and she was available. Second, I have really sensitive skin and chemical sensitivity and the products she used did not make me break out in acne or hives. Finally, I looked incredible - she knew exactly what would and wouldn't compliment my features and was able to achieve the look I wanted despite the amount of hair that I had shed between our trial and the wedding day (thank you, stress). My pony tail had gotten noticeably thinner but she was still able to work her magic - including when the florist erroneously brought a floral barrette not a floral comb right at the last minute. Highly recommend!

You won't regret hiring this Green Goddess!

I had such a wonderful experience working with Ky! One of my priorities for my wedding day hair and makeup was natural products as I had spent several years weaning out chemical-heavy beauty products from my routine. Ky was ready to meet that goal while also giving me a beautiful hair style based on my vision. Between being flexible during pandemic reschedules, to listening to the changes I was hoping for between the trial and the big day, Ky was responsive, creative, patient, and fun throughout the process! She also listened to the desires of each wedding party attendant, and made them feel and look special as well. I have and will continue to recommend her!

Talented, kind, calming

Ky of “Modern Green Goddess” and her stellar team managed to complete hair/make up almost every female in my family the day of my wedding (Nov 2021). When I told her all of the people that would be needing her services, she didn’t bat an eye and immediately coordinated with her colleagues to ensure they would complete the looks in time. Start time was 9AM and they were on time, professional, and communicated with us ahead of time on what they’d need from the hotel to ensure they could deliver on time and DID THEY EVER. Ky was a calming and fun presence on the day of my wedding and incredibly communicative in the weeks leading up. She reflects my ethos of clean, natural beauty and made me feel empowered to contribute to her work and advocate for my vision. Ky and her team were a part of the party and an unforgettable contributor to my dream wedding. I looked like MYSELF just a bit more enhanced thanks to Ky. Also: she specializes in mature makeup application, so she was able to ensure my grandmother was just as cared for as the rest of us. Thank you Ky!!

Made my day relaxing and beautiful

Ky was suggested to me by my wedding planner and working with her was one of the best decisions I made. Ky was flexible and accommodating through the appointment making process. She was also super helpful in collaborating with me on a look, as I'm indecisive and don't wear makeup regularly.

Ky gave me the perfect "makeup-less" look I wanted that LASTED ALL NIGHT. Definitely recommend and will be using her again in the future. Thank Ky!

flawless makeup & hair!

I loved my makeup/hair with Ky! She was so flexible during the trial to get exactly what I wanted, and spent as much time as we needed getting it right. I had some (very) minor comments with the makeup itself and she took the notes exactly and delivered flawlessly on my wedding day. I had so many compliments on my makeup and hair, and most importantly, I felt beautiful. The makeup also photographed so well. Ky is such a sweet and lovely person - she made sure to set a calming vibe at both the trial and on my wedding day, and was a pleasure to work with! Can't recommend her enough!

Natural-Looking Makeup and Hair Styling that Withstood a Rain Storm!

I worked with Ky and Cynthia from Modern Green Goddess to provide hair styling and makeup services for my bridesmaids, my mother, mother in law and myself on my wedding day (May 2019). Throughout the whole process, Ky was a consummate professional and put me at ease, answering all of the questions that I had during the year leading up to the wedding and assuaging any anxiety that I had. I don't wear a lot of makeup in everyday life, so it was really important to me that I still looked like myself (albeit, a fancier version of myself), and Ky delivered. I am so happy with the results - my makeup and crazy curly hair, which usually frizzes up at any sign of humidity, stayed in place the whole night, even after we got caught in a rain storm during our photos. My bridesmaids and moms all looked beautiful and Ky earned high praise from my mother, who was possibly more nervous about her styling than I was. Beyond the actual hair and makeup, Ky, Cynthia and her assistant were so fun to chat with (Ky had to start styling at 7 am, due to the number of people in my party, so we ended up spending 6 hours together). They are wonderful and I cannot recommend them enough!

Ky did such a phenomal job on my hair and makeup! I stressed that i wanted a very natural look (similar to how i wear my makeup) and she blew me away! She did all of my bridesmaids hir as well. Ky only uses all natural products, so she even got the most stubborn hair (mine) to hold a style. Very impressed!!

Working with Ky was such a dream come true. She immediately understood the beautiful glowing, natural bridal look I was going for. I wanted to look like myself yet enhanced, and she designed a flawless makeup look and incredibly unique hairstyle for me in the 1st try at the makeup + hair trial. I have taken so many steps to be conscious about what I eat and what I put on my skin that I didn't want to have to make any compromises for my wedding day makeup. I was so thrilled to discover that Ky is the queen of natural makeup. She is an expert in sourcing non-toxic makeup and applying it in a way that photographs beautifully and lasts all day & night (even in the heat of our Memorial Day 2017 ceremony). The makeup felt weightless, like I was just my own skin. The products Ky used & her method of application allowed for my skin to be visible and breathe while also giving great coverage where I needed it, without being obvious. I felt so beautiful & radiant. I loved the look so much that I returned for a makeup lesson so that I could do the look myself for future events. Ky is a great teacher and has some amazing tricks for how to enhance your eyes and layering your makeup to last. On the wedding day Ky was on time & efficient. She did my hair and makeup, as well as the hair for my maid of honor and it was so great to start the day with Ky's calming touch and fun company as we were getting ready. I am so grateful to have found Ky, and hands down would recommend her to any bride.

I was committed to finding a makeup artist consistent with my values in using toxic-free ingredients and I am so grateful to have connected with Ky through our mutual work with Beautycounter (safer products made beautiful). I have so much gratitude for Ky. She is one of the most generous and giving people I have met and when I was searching for a 100% "clean beauty" makeup artist and hair stylist for my wedding ceremony and reception event in July, I felt such PEACE when I spoke to Ky and connected with her about my "goddess" vision and making it a reality. We did an in-depth consultation and as the big day neared, we discussed and kept in contact with subtle nuances and ideas. I am so happy with the results and I feel her skill, makeup/hair artistry, and work ethic matched everything I could have dreamed.

It was an absolutely pleasure working with Ky! She is such an amazing talent-- one who takes the time to understand her client and genuinely cares about their needs. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day and still felt like me! Ky is awesome and I highly recommend her services.

Ky was amazing! I was lucky enough to be paired up with her through Bridal Artistry and from the trial, I was excited to have her do my makeup on my wedding day. She paid real attention to what was best for my skintone, handling my summer sunburnt skin during my trial like a pro, and really made my look come together. She gave me tips for taking care of my skin and taught me things about makeup as we worked out what I wanted together. Even 8 months later, I am so thankful for Ky and how beautiful she made me feel on my big day. My makeup on my wedding day was perfect, and I would not hesitate to recommend her. She even did it on her own anniversary! Thank you, Ky.

Ky takes the time to find a hairstyle that works for you. She did the hair and makeup of my daughter for her wedding as well as the bridal party's hair. My daughter looked absolutely stunning--her hair and makeup were flawless.
Everyone in the bridal party loved their hair.
Add to this, Ky has such a pleasant personality.
I highly recommend Ky to anyone who wants to look spectacular on their special day.

I'm very glad I had Ky do the makeup for my wedding! I scheduled a trial a few months prior and she asked many questions and tried a few looks, recording and mapping my selections as we went. I was originally concerned about my ivory skin that can look orange with too much bronzer. However, I had nothing to worry about! She listened to my concerns and everything looked AMAZING. I love the final vintage look that we went with and everything was perfect for the big day. She also did the makeup for my mom and mother in law, the whole time sticking closely to the schedule but making sure everyone looked fantastic!! Everyone only has positive things to say!

Ky was wonderful to work with. I honestly did not know what I wanted for my hair and make up. At my trial she asked questions, listened as I tried to answer, made suggestions and helped me choose what ended up being the final make up and hair style. This included needing longer hair, so I worked with her colleague to make extensions. The overall experience was fun and the end result was amazing. I have never felt so good and looked so beautiful. I was so happy to have the opportunity to work with Ky. Thank you for being patient, attentive and fun.

I'll start by saying I am a probably the worlds most indecisive person. I am known to change my mind multiple times and second guess everything. Which I did with a lot of things pertaining to my wedding. I changed my hairstyle 3 times after I met with Ky for my trial. Nothing to do with her work, I just kept finding new hairstyles I liked. I sent her several emails with pictures of what I wanted my hair changed to. I am sure this was annoying seeing as I already had my trial so she could not practice the styles on me before my day and I have thin, difficult to work with, hair. Ky was always so professional and polite in her return emails to me and reassured me she would do whatever style I wanted and not to worry. So the day of my wedding comes...well I changed my mind again! I pulled up new pictures on my phone of what I wanted. This could have been a complete disaster seeing as she was looking at a tiny phone. It turned out perfect! Ky did an AMAZING job on my hair for my wedding! My hair turned out even better than the picture I showed her! It was so beautiful I cried. I would highly recommend Ky!

Ky did hairstyles for me and my 4 bridesmaids on the day of the wedding and she did an amazing job! Ky was great to work with from start to finish. We went to her studio in Springfield for my hair and makeup trial and we tested out a few different hair styles - two of bridesmaids came along and Ky was very accommodating to our constant chatter :) Ky was able to look at the photos on my pinterest and help me visualize what I wanted for my wedding day and then she took photos of each hair style from every side so I could remember what they looked like. I ended taking a piece of hairstyle A and a piece of hairstyle B and I was really happy with how it turned out. My hair stayed together the whole night, was comfortable, and looked great in pictures. Each of my bridesmaids' hairstyles also looked amazing. Ky was laid back and easy to work with throughout, she was fun to chat with as we got ready in the hotel suite and I would highly recommend her to anyone getting married in the DMV area.

Want proof? We had some "mishaps" on our wedding day and got stuck in an elevator before the ceremony with the entire wedding party! Did my hair get frizzy or fall out of its style - NOPE. Check out the photos at the link -

Ky is awesome and super nice! My wedding is in March 2016 and I can't wait for Ky to style my hair and my wedding party for my big day. I recently had my trial and I LOVED my hair and it was just a rough run. LOL! Ky listens to you and really goes out of her way to make sure she understands the look for your wedding day. She is patient and tries several looks and tweaks as necessary until she gets the perfect style. She also makes fabulous hair accessories. If I hadn't already booked a MUA for sure I would have booked Ky to do my makeup as well.

Ky was fantastic to work with, start to finish. She was really responsive from the start and was able to schedule my hair trial on the exact day I wanted. After we did the hair trial, she also styled me for my engagement shoot. On my wedding day, she showed up on time and did the hair for my bridesmaids and myself. Everyone was really happy with the work she did. Would definitely recommend to anyone!

Ky was fantastic to work with. She really listened to my thoughts for my wedding day hair and gave thoughtful feedback. She was responsive to emails, which was so calming to my type-A personality. My family loved meeting her, she was kind and patient with all of the ladies and made everyone feel special. She is flexible, too! We made some last minute changes to my hair style (day-of) and she handled it like a pro. Overall, I am a very happy bride!

Ky was AMAZING. Out of all of the vendors I dealt with for the wedding, she was the most professional, most patient, most organized, most flexible, and just an overall, absolute pleasure. For the pre-wedding session, which took place in her home, she made me feel comfortable and she asked all the right questions in order to help me figure out my look. I also knew she was really listening and observing because she was taking notes and photos and constantly asking for feedback, and when it came time for the big day, she had those notes and photos and successfully implemented all of the adjustments we had discussed. On my wedding day, she and her co-team member showed up at my hotel room on time and ready to go. They both were just as accommodating with my bride’s maids, young flower girl, and future mother-in-law. They did everyone’s hair and makeup efficiently and gently, and were so kind when my flower girl started to cry because she didn’t like the curlers. In the end, we all felt great, looked great, and were done in plenty of time. In fact, one of my other vendors had a meltdown and was calling me on the phone while I was having my hair done and if it weren’t for Ky’s steady, calming influence, I probably would have lost it too!

I loved working with Ky. As someone who spends the minimal amount of time on makeup every day I had no idea what I wanted as far as makeup for my wedding. Ky came up with an amazing look that I continue to be amazed with every time I look at my pictures. I only wish she could do my makeup for me every day.

Hair and makeup are such important services to get right on your wedding day, and Ky did not disappoint. The team worked tirelessly to perfect hair, makeup, and fake lash application on site for myself, 12 bridesmaids, and our moms/grandmas. I was able to do a pre-trial about two months out, and Ky worked with me for an hour or more to test what worked and what didn't, and took meticulous notes and lots of photos to make sure this guide could be referenced on the big day to take the guess work out of everything. I felt beautiful and exceptional thanks to Bridal Artistry, and I highly recommend hiring the team if you want to look your best on your big day. My hair not only looked lovely as I pictured it would, but it also held in place all day and all evening. I would highly recommend Ky!

Ky was an amazing makeup and hair artist. She created the perfect look for me based on my inspiration pictures. Everyone commented that my hair and makeup was great. Ky made sure that my hair stayed in place throughout the whole event. Ky is also friendly and fun to work with. I had a great time conversing with her while she did my makeup and hair. I highly recommend her!!

Ky is amazing! She did a fantastic job with my hair for my wedding day. I met with Ky two months before my wedding for a hair trial, and we tried a few different styles. Ky took pictures and notes on what I liked from the trial. On the morning of the wedding, Ky was ready to go! She was so great and went with the flow, even when I wanted to make a few changes. Ky also did an amazing job with my bridesmaid, my mom, and my mother-in-law. She listened to all three ladies to find out the look they wanted, and matched the exact look. Our hair was perfect:)

My hair was styled exactly how I wanted and how we'd decided during the trial appointment. Ky was a pleasure to work with -- professional, friendly and very talented. She and her assistant worked efficiently (16 ladies has their hair done!) and every single one had an exceptional style. Definitely a step above any usual hair stylist. I would recommend to any bride who wants to feel 100% confident that her hair will look amazing on her big day.

Ky did a great job doing my hair and makeup on my wedding day. There was limited time to get hair and/or makeup done for my bridesmaids so she brought along an assistant, Norma, who did a great job as well. My bridesmaids and I have very different types of hair and skin tones but everyone looked amazing based on Ky and Norma's recommendations. They both came to my venue, which made everything very easy and convenient. They even managed to fit in a couple more people last minute!

Ky was very open and flexible during our trial and adjusted very well when I decided on something different from what we had originally discussed. Everyone's hair and makeup lasted throughout the evening and I never had to worry about touching anything up even though Ky gave me a couple touch-up items. Another aspect I appreciated about Ky was that she did not require a minimum cost or number of services. I would definitely use Ky again if needed and I would recommend her to anyone in need of a hair/makeup artist for any type of occasion!

Ky did a WONDERFUL job on my makeup for my wedding. I was a little nervous getting my makeup done because some places make you look like a totally different person with way too much makeup. Ky was able to bring out my best features and make me look like the best version of myself. It was dramatic but not overdone. I loved the full-sized powder and lipgloss that I received for touch ups throughout the day and night but really I only had to use the lipgloss since everything set really well and lasted forever. The fake eyelashes were also a nice touch but done in a way that looked quite natural. Ky also had a really positive and relaxing attitude during the makeup trial and on the wedding day which was great since I needed to calm my nerves. She also arrived a little earlier than the scheduled time to make sure that everything was sorted before I was ushered off to the church. I would recommend her to anyone to make themselves look fabulous!

Ky Washington styled my hair for my October wedding along with 3 of my bridesmaids and my flower girl (5 years old). Ky came to my venue and made the process so easy! We were all styled ahead of schedule and all looked wonderful! My hair stayed put without feeling heavy or tight. I would absolutely recommend Ky and would use her again myself!

As someone who never wears makeup regularly, I was a bit nervous about getting my makeup professionally done because I worried I wouldn't look like myself. Luckily, Ky requires you have a trial to make sure both of you are on the same page for your actual wedding day.

At my trial, I was prettttty clueless about what it was I wanted exactly. In the end, while the makeup was amazing, I knew it wasn't how I wanted to look on my wedding day. Again, this was my own issue of not knowing what I wanted! Ky listened to my thoughts and took all the thoughts I had later through email.

On the wedding day itself, she came to my hotel exactly on time (these things matter!). She put up with my crazy friends and family who crowded around to keep me company. But of course, most importantly, every single thing we discussed doing differently -- she did. My hair and makeup were absolutely perfect. I looked like a better version of myself ;) Both the hair and makeup lasted till the end of our after party -- 3AM!

Ky is talented, professional, responsive, and her calming presence was exactly what I needed as the kick off to my wedding day itself. Would recommend her without hesitation.

Ky did hair for me and 6 bridesmaids. She did an awesome job on all of the ladies, giving each one a unique style that was personalized to flatter each of my gals features while still creating a really cohesive look for our group for pictures. She worked closely with me to do a hair trail and meticulously photographed her work and took copious notes on what I liked and what adjustments I wanted to make. I was nervous my day-of hair wouldn't come out as great as the trail but Ky made it look exactly the same, and incorporated the tiny tweaks I'd asked for perfectly. When I look at my wedsing pictures I can honestly say I LOVE how my hair looks! I keep Ky's card handy and am looking forward to having an event qhen I can use her again!!

Ky was my hairstylist at my August 2013 wedding.

The sheer number of expected and unexpected sources that have looked at my wedding pictures both professional and family and exclaimed. "Oh my your hair looks amazing!" should tell you just how amazing Ky is.

At my trial she looked at the pictures I liked, looked at my hair and asked about my hair. I have fairly fine european dark blond hair but a TON of it and it was down to my mid back at the time and it has a wave in it but can go frizzy in humidity.

Taking all of this into account she used products suitable to my hair and gave me a look unique for me that suited my face, hair, veil and overall look I was trying to achieve.

On the day itself Ky was early, calm and effecient and finished on time for me to not be late so that I could be organised late :)

All in all the experience with Ky was amazing and I can recommend her services wholeheartedly.

Ky is a very talented makeup artist (and I truly do mean artist). Not only was my makeup absolutely stunning (even my husband said that my makeup was gorgeous), she's extremely fun to work with and incredibly flexible with time and location. If I ever have the need for a makeup artist again, I won't look anywhere else. I'll for sure be going back to Ky!

Ky did an amazing job on my hair and my mom's hair. She was able to capture the bridal look that I was trying to achieve so beautifully. Her customer service was absolutely amazing! I mentioned to her that I wanted a pretty hair clip to wear during my reception and she was able to make me a custom clip that complimented the beading on my dress. I highly recommend Ky for your big day.

My make-up artist Ky Washington was the best make-up artist I have ever had! She was so on point with the colors that looked best on my skintone, and she made me look absolutely FABULOUS on my wedding day! I had so many compliments, and everyone could not get over I great I looked. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to look their best for whatever occasion. My mother and sister also used her services and they couldn't believe how great she made them look! Ky I cannot thank you enough for your services, your professionalism, and the time you put in making us all look great!

Amazing!
We worked with and Ky to do our hair for the wedding. She did myself and 4 bridesmaids. I was scheduled for a practice a couple of months out and she did a great job and I was really looking forward to the wedding day! Everyone who had their hair done had ideas of what they wanted, Ky was able to do exactly that and everyone was thrilled! None of us had any issues with hair falling out of place/etc the Entire night and this is a dancing group of ladies! She was very easy to work with, friendly to everyone (even a bridesmaids that changed her mind twice), on time, and did an amazing job. I would Highly recommend Ky to anyone for a special event!

Ky was able to help me achieve a personalized hairstyle for my wedding day that suited the entire day: my dress, my venue, my personality. Not only did she succeed at that, but she helped make my bridesmaids and mom feel and look beautiful without a prior consultation. I was really impressed with Ky's ability to just "get" what we were each trying to achieve with our hair for the big day. I whole-heartedly recommend Ky!

Ky (owner of Richie Hair & Makeup) was fantastic. While she does both Hair and Makeup, I hired her only for hair since a friend of mine also did makeup. Ky worked very well with my Makeup artist as well. There was a great transition between the two of them on the wedding day; until my entire party was glammed out! But to back up a moment, I had a great hair trial with Ky. She provided a full consultation and let me know how to treat my hair prior to the wedding. I told her that I would like extensions as well and since it was my very first time with extensions, she made herself available to assist with that as well (which was very helpful). I was confident that she would do a great job at the wedding. The wedding came and of course, I decide last minute to change my (the bride's) hairstyle. However, Ky didn't even skip a beat. The new design was flawlessly executed (gorgeous!!!!), as were the styles of the flower girl and the 6 other attendants. Ky is extremely talented! She is professional and she loves what she does. It shows in her work! Finally, her rates are comparable in the industry. I would hire her again in the future; all I need is the next event!

Ky was amazing!!! She did hair for each of my bridesmaids and they all looked beautiful. She did hair and make-up for both my mom and I and it was perfect. She is super friendly and made the entire experience fun. My make-up lasted all day and didn't rub off on my new hubby or guests. I highly recommend Ky.

My hair and makeup was gorgeous and I couldn't have asked her to do a better job. She strives to make sure that you love your look and she never rushed to get done. I will certainly use her again if I need my hair and makeup done for anything.

Ky was great! She was funny and made me and my bridesmaids look fabulous on my wedding day. She did one test run with me, another run for my bridal portraits, and then the actual day. She was great! After seeing my bridal portraits I decided I wanted a softer look, and she was able to make it happen. My pictures from my wedding day turned out great! My maid of honor was being so picky about her hair. She came unprepared with no pictures or any idea of what she wanted. Ky was very professional and offered some ideas. I got married outside on a summer evening. Ky offered suggestions for my bridesmaids that would allow for a nice look that would hold the summer humidity. Both my mom and mother in law have short hair, but she was able to style their hair and still make them look elegant for the big day. She was able to work with all hair types, long, short, curly, wavy, etc. I was very satisfied with her work and would definitely recommend her.

As a wedding planner, I had worked with Ky on quite a few of my other weddings. I had seen, first hand, the works of art that she can create with someone's hair. Honestly, it is almost like she is molding clay once she gets an idea of the hairstyle. As a non-traditional bride, I knew that Ky was the PERFECT choice for my wedding day hair style. I gave her a picture and asked her to duplicate it. Instead, she deconstructed the hairstyle, used the main aspects that I like and made it BETTER by adding touches which complimented my personality. Wedding photos are something that are only take once, are shared throughout generations and last a lifetime!! I am beyond thrilled with the way my hair turned out and couldn't have asked for more!!!

Having taken the Bar Exam one month before getting married I was in a bind, unsure if any stylists would be available, let alone good ones. I called on Ky a week and a half before my wedding. All I had to do was describe what I wanted and show her my veil - Ky worked her magic and it came out beautiful. I was so relieved - Ky saved me from the age old plague of having to test an unending number of stylists before finally compromising. On top of being amazingly talented and just all-around enjoyable, Ky was extremely professional. Ky drove into the city and showed up at 6 in the morning to squeeze us in before a wedding she had planned months before. She did my bridesmaids' hair without even a trial and they were all so beautiful and happy. More importantly, she did my mother-in-law, who was also quite beautiful and pleased. All this without ever seeing or speaking with any of them before. Ky truly made my wedding day special - I know it could not have been as beautiful with any other stylist and I know that when I receive compliments, they are real and honest because we all looked so beautiful

Ky did my makeup for my wedding through Bridal Artistry. She was very easy to work with during my trial and on my wedding day. Ky did a fabulous job on my wedding day and really listened to what I wanted. I looked awesome. I took off half a star because Ky was late for my makeup both times I met her (trial and wedding day). I had already read that Ky ran late in other people's reviews so I left plenty of buffer time, and it didn't bother me.

From the moment that I had my first consultation with Ky, I immediately felt at ease. She has the warmest personality and it felt like we were two friends that had known each other for years. I brought a picture of my ideal wedding hairstyle, which she easily duplicated. I decided to change my style prior to the wedding and sent Ky a few pictures via email. I have to admit that I was nervous about not having another practice run prior to the wedding, but she NAILED it! Ky also did hair for my mother and future sister-in-law -she patiently listened to their vision and flawlessly executed. So many wedding guests complemented all three of us on our hairstyles. I would not hesitate to recommend Ky to anyone!

Ky did my hair and makeup for my wedding. She made me look stunning. I was a little worried after the trial but Ky was always there to calm my nerves and offer suggestions.
She has a great personality and is very reliable. I would definitely use her again if I had to do it all over.

Calm atmosphere & clean beauty

I hired Ky for my bridal and bridal party's makeup specifically because I was seeking someone who could 1. create a professional, long-wear look with clean beauty, and 2. create a natural look for multiple skin tones - and Ky delivered! During our trial, I learned about how to best prep my skin for the day, and Ky shared her recommendations for my look. After the trial, Ky sent helpful documentation and incorporated my notes into an outline for a natural look tailored to me. On the day of the wedding, I was nervous and Ky's calming presence and makeup routine (which includes aromatherapy) put me at ease. The resulting look made me feel like myself, but enhanced! (My stepmother and mother-in-law also had their makeup done by Ky, and said of their experience, "I wish I could bring you home with me to help me get ready everyday!") I would 10/10 recommend Ky to anyone seeking a talented, clean beauty professional and a calming environment for their special day!

I worked with Ky she was wonderful! Did my makeup and as well as that of the mother of the groom and bride. She was prompt professional put us all at ease and listened to feedback about how we each wanted to look for the wedding. We are a blended race couple and she had makeup that matched each tone deep black skin to fair white flawlessly. I will definitely use her again for any event I have!

Ky did a great job with my hair for my wedding! We tried 3 different styles a few weeks before the wedding. She also makes her own hair accessories which I purchased. She had it dyed to match my dress too. The hair style and the accessory together really went well with my lace wedding dress.

Ky did a fabulous job on hair for my wedding party, as well as for me! Everyone was ecstatic about how amazing she made them look :) Even our moms, who do not usually like to be photographed, began striking a pose for the camera! They felt like celebrities!

The price is very high, but I checked around the DC area, and it is definitely comparable. Also, worth it for a sure-thing on your big day!

Ky was great! She arrived early on my wedding day and did a fantastic job doing hair for myself and my entire wedding party. She was wonderful with children (I had 5 kids in my wedding) -- doing extra special things for the small girls to make them feel special. Highly recommend.

Ky was amazing in helping me trouble shoot alternatives to extensions for my desired updo hair style. I cannot tell you how skilled she is-we went from concept to two possible styles. I was in awe of her work and she did a GREAT job. I felt my look was complete and I got lots of compliments. THANK YOU!! Run don't walk to book your style with Ky. You won't regret it.

Ky is an amazing person. She was very friendly and very attentive to what I wanted. On the day of, I completely changed my hairstyle than what we had done at the trail yet she was totally understanding and she made me look amazing. She is a perfectionist and takes her time to make you look perfect. I was beyond happy with her work and I would recommend her in a heartbeat.

Ky made me look amazing! She sat with me as I discussed what I wanted to have done with my hair, that I didn't typically wear a ton of make-up and that I didn't want my husband to look down the aisle and think - who's that? She was able to accommodate all of this plus make my mom and my mother-in-law look great.

I swear, I will never look as beautiful as Ky made me look that day.

My only concern with the process was she took a little bit longer that was expected (and we even started early). It wasn't the end of the world, but it did cut some of my picture time before the ceremony.

was looking for a one-stop-shop for my wedding hair and makeup and looking for someone who would come to my wedding venue for a reasonable price, and Ky fit the bill (I found her through Bridal Artistry. Ky is such a fun person. I did a trial at her studio months before my wedding and had a few thoughts on things I would change based on my trial, and it was not a problem at all, Ky was so accommodating. She was calm and chatty on my wedding day which was nice. My makeup was perfect, not too intense but expertly applied, and she did my hair in loose waves that held up all night and into the next day. I would recommend Ky!

Ky and her assistant did a great job on me, my bridesmaids, flower girls, and my mom. The only issue I had was that she was late to my trial and calculated my remaining balance incorrectly, but it was not a huge deal and I still booked her. I asked to change the style she did at my trial slightly for the wedding day, and it looked fabulous. She was on time to the hotel and got us all done in plenty of time for pictures before leaving for the ceremony. I couldn't have asked for anything more! Thank you, Ky.

Ky did an AMAZING job on my hair (and my bridesmaid's hair), we'd meet for a consultation and she really took the time to see what I wanted, what would look good, what was comfortable and the day of the wedding created a look I LOVED.
Wouldn't change anything about the experience - the make-up people she worked with did a nice job, but one of them was late, causing some anxiety (she went to the wrong hotel and got stuck in traffic) which wasn't ideal on a wedding day.

After several hair/makeup trials with various stylists I chose Ky to do my wedding hair and makeup. During the trial she was very flexible and did multiple hair styles for me and did my makeup perfectly! She was very easy to talk to and we clicked - I knew she was the stylist for me! I had some anxiety about having too dark of eye makeup so she created a look that was perfect for my skin tone and matched the theme of my wedding perfectly! I had some questions after the trial and she was very fast at responding. She helped me find an associate of hers to do my bridesmaids hair - which also turned out great! The one issue I had with Ky is that on my wedding day she arrived an hour and a half late - which pushed my entire day back and caused a lot of stress. She did text me and warned me she was running late. We had to make up the time and it turned out that the pre-ceremony photos had to get condensed...it was very stressful. My makeup and hair lasted the entire day - and I am sure if I slept on them in the morning they would have still looked perfect. I received many complements that my makeup looked natural but awesome! As a goodie bag she provided lipstick and powder, which helped mid-reception when I needed to do some touch ups!

We had two wonderful young ladies (whose names I forget), but they let the girls know ahead of time to bring pictures of ideas for their hair, which was a great idea and a HUGE help. They work efficiently and got everyone ready in way less time than I expected.

They came directly to our hotel (we paid for their parking) and worked on the girls in our suite.

I would definitely recommend them to anyone planning a wedding in the D.C. area.

Ky did a wonderful job! She 8 people to style that day and each and every one of us was happy with our hair. I received so many positive comments on my hair at the wedding and even later in our pictures. I live in Seattle and my wedding was in Virginia, so my only contact with Ky before the wedding was via email and phone (she was very responsive) but I was a little nervous about not meeting or having a trial with my hair stylist before the big day! Ky was professional and listened to what I wanted and I was very lucky to find her.

Ky was great. She did my hair and all 4 of my bridesmaids, everyone looked wonderful. She did a good job during the trial run, but outdid herself on the wedding day, it was just beautiful. She was very nice and easy to talk to and gave me recommendations for products during the trial run. I would definitely recommend her to anybody. She did a fantastic job and even came to the hotel we were getting ready at which is about 45 minutes away from her.

Lovely to work with however they did arrive late (due to traffic). During my hair trial my hair fell and the curls were not smooth. I was assured the real wedding day would not be like that because we wouldn't be trialing so many hair styles. However my wedding day hair was disappointing - it did not hold! My bridesmaids were fixing it all night from the second the stylist left, recurling pieces that were frizzy and went flat. I curl my hair on my own for most dressy occasions in the DC area and do not run into this issue so it was particularly frustrating that the wedding hair I paid so much money for fell and looked messy in most of our wedding shots.

Ky did my hair and also 8 others. Everyone was pleased with their hair, and I was pleased with mine. The trial was great; we kept going until the style was just right and she gave good advice and didn't mind trying over and over again. The one problem was the Ky was about 20 minutes late to the trial, which, though unprofessional, was not a big deal. However, she was also 15-20 minutes late the day of the wedding. This really stressed me out, as we were on a timeline (like all wedding days are). However, she still finished everyone on time.

Suzanne did my makeup and 3 other people's makeup. She did a great job, everyone was happy, and she was on time.

I contacted Ky a couple weeks before my wedding and thank goodness she was able to fit me in for an early Saturday morning wedding. We made an appointment a trial at her house, but when I showed up she was surprised said she thought the trial was the next week (the wedding was the next week). I did verify that I was there on the correct day we set via email. Thank goodness she was home, her house guests left and we did the hair and makeup trial. I wore it for the rest of the day and emailed her with some changes, which she was very receptive to. She showed up about 15 minutes late the morning of the wedding. Ky was very pleasant and personable throughout the morning, which was good because I wasn't talking much due to nerves. She was only doing mine and my mom's hair and makeup, and it took longer than we thought so we were a little rushed to leave on time, but we made it. I got lots of compliments, especially on my hair. Overall it was a good experience.

Ky did a wonderful job with my wedding day hair as well as my 6 bridesmaids. The only reason why she didn't score higher was the stress she caused me during my wedding day. I woke up to a phone call from her telling me that her associate couldn't make it and I had two choices: to have 2 bridesmaides start at 7AM(she called at 645AM) or I had to postpone my wedding. While I think Ky is a sweetheart, no bride should have to deal with vendor stress the day of her wedding. She should've had an "on call" replacement in case of an emergency.

Ky did a great job at the trial. I felt great about how my hair looked. Unfortunately, I did not feel the same way on my wedding day. I feel like the trial hair looked much nicer than on my wedding day. I felt like my hair was greasy and weighted down. Ky also took my mother last minute - which caused me to run 40 minutes behind. I had scheduled my day to be able to have 45 minutes after hair and make-up (prior to getting my dress on) to relax and be able to Skype with a good friend in Spain - due to the my hair catastrophe I was unable to do so and felt very rushed. My make-up person had to wait, which was extremely uncomfortable. My hair did not have the volume I was looking for, and I received no compliments for my hair, but countless ones for my make-up. While it was nice to try to accommodate my mother - it was my day and she should have taken care of my hair prior to anyone else. I am overall pretty disappointed with my hair.
