    Highly recommend!

    The Queen Bees were the perfect choice for our wedding. Jennifer helped us set the schedule for the day, and Paige and Ashley helped me achieve the exact look I wanted on my wedding day. I wanted to look like myself, but better (and not like i had too much makeup on) and my look was spot on. The team was so professional and touched up all the girls’ makeup before pictures and the ceremony. Worth every penny. I highly recommend them for any wedding!

    Hair & Makeup were an absolute stunner!

    My bridal party, my mom, mother of the groom and myself all had beautiful hair and makeup, all thanks to the talented team at Queen's Bees. I still can't believe how gorgeous we all looked and were thrilled at how talented each of the stylists were at giving everyone a unique up-do and natural makeup style that looked flawless for the entire day. For myself, they delivered a gorgeous old Hollywood glamour vibe for both hair & makeup. Our makeup and hair still looked perfect by the end of the night all thanks to Queen's Bees!

    Loved the Queens Bees!

    The Queens Bees are incredible!!! From my trial to the wedding day, they were amazing to work with! Despite being the busiest woman, Jenn is extremely responsive and makes sure your day runs smoothly. Additionally, the artists are so, so insanely talented. I had Adelita and Sky and I couldn’t recommend them enough. They were both so intentional, kind, professional, and encouraging. I felt SO beautiful on my wedding day and these two women played a HUGE role in that. If you go with The Queens Bees and have the pleasure of working with Adelita and/or Sky, you will not be disappointed. I can only imagine how talented and amazing the other artists are! Go with The Queens Bees! They’re fabulous!

    A and K Wedding

    My daughter, the bride, selected The Queens Bees to provide hair and makeup services on the morning of her wedding. Our wedding planner recommended them and we weren't disappointed. They arrived at the venue where we were getting ready promptly and were all very professional and fun. All of the girls were pleased with their hair and makeup and even the groomsmen commented on how great everyone looked!
    I can sincerely recommend The Queens Bees services.

    Talented and organized. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day!!

    I hired Queen's Bees to do hair and makeup (Kayla and Ashley on hair, Paige and Amber on makeup) for 16 (!!) women/girls (me the bride, bridesmaids, moms, stepmoms, flower girls, and others for my wedding on May 21, 2022, and I was completely blown away by their talent. I (and at least one of my bridesmaids) are very picky about our makeup and have not historically loved getting our makeup done, but Paige and Amber crushed it!! All of my ladies loved how their hair and makeup turned out and everyone looked stunning. Not only are the Queen's Bees artists talented, but I was so impressed with how organized they were about juggling 16 people and seamlessly adjusted when we had a few of our ladies not show up on time for their appointments. They were so timely and kept everything running smoothly AND made the getting-ready process so fun and exciting. They were also super flexible and accommodating with our requests. Jenn Hix, the owner/manager of Queen's Bees, was also wonderful to work with and on top of all coordination from the point I booked Queen's Bees up through the wedding day. I can't recommend Queen's Bees enough! Don't wait - just book them!

    I've never looked better

    Call me vain... but the most important thing for me was looking perfect on my wedding day. The girls and I ended up looking amazing! Jen was so accommodating and helped us figure out ways to take my trial to the next level which Amber executed perfectly. Apparently I have difficult skin and nothing was lasting but through the trial and retrial we finally figured it out and it was perfect for the day of. Janina also was very accommodating to my hair type and got my hair vison perfectly without a trial. Overall I am very happy with my selection.

    Hair & Makeup Dream Team

    The Queen's Bees was amazing, the team they have are all so talented and made us all so comfortable the morning of my wedding. I ended up not being able to do a hair trial but my stylist listened and created exactly what I had always dreamed of. I can't recommend them enough.

    Beyond amazing!

    Highly, highly recommend Jen and her girls to all brides looking for hair and makeup!! Not only are their skills beyond amazing but on the day of your wedding your makeup artist becomes your therapist and Jen was that for me. I woke up with a little more than a hungover from my rehearsal dinner and Jen made sure I ate, and had some quite time. She was correct when she said I would feel brand new after I got out of her chair and she wasn’t kidding. After my full face was on I was ready to walk down the aisle!

    Mary & Steven's Wedding

    The Queen Bees were super professional and listened to exactly what I and my bridesmaids wanted with our hair/ makeup. I did the make-up trial the day before my wedding (which can be so scary) and Brooke did an amazing job and made me feel so beautiful. If you are getting married in central CA this is a great choice!

    Absolutely Amazing Work

    We all looked stunning!
    The Queens Bees is a team of amazing hair and makeup artists. I would highly recommend them to anyone getting married in the area because they truly take great pride in their work! My makeup was beyond what I could have imagined and they worked wonders on my little sister. My mother, who recently won her fight against breast cancer back in 2020 had various length hair was my biggest concern because I wanted to make sure she felt beautiful. The Queens Bees took such great care of her and even used some of my extensions to give her hair a little more body and style. I truly appreciate how wonderful they were to us!

    Hair and Makeup of my DREAMS

    The Queen's Bees is next level for hair and make-up! I booked them pre-pandemic, and Jenn was so accommodating when we had to reschedule our date. She did my and my wedding party's makeup and it was incredible, exactly what I had hoped for. Janina did our hair and all I can say is WOW. She totally nailed it and I got the Pinterest hair of my dreams! The process for setting up the hair and makeup trial was super easy and Jenn sent me a very detailed schedule for day-off. They stuck to the schedule 100% which means we stayed on-time and I was able to relax and keep calm. Not to mention I felt stunning, and got so many compliments! Jenn and her team are the best!

    Love The Queen's Bees!!

    I really enjoyed working with The Queen’s Bees! Jennifer who organizes everything was so wonderful and I’m so glad I worked with her. She was responsive and friendly, and I felt very taken care of, and she was always quick to respond. She helped select a great team of makeup and hair stylists for our wedding day, all of whom were very talented at what they do and all the women in the wedding looked great! I was super happy with my makeup and hair too! Jennifer was super helpful along the way, and I’m so glad I worked with The Queen’s Bees team. Thank you!!

    The Perfect Wedding Weekend at Ella's Vineyard!

    Jenn & her team at The Queen’s Bees did a great job doing hair for me & my bridesmaids on our wedding day. Jenn was very responsive & easy to communicate with throughout our planning process. Jessi did my hair, and I loved the way it turned out! She did such a great job of bringing my vision to life, and it stayed in place all day. I was so sad to have had to take it out at the end of the night!

    Great girls with lots of experience

    Jenn was amazing in organizing the right fit for bridal and bridesmaids hair. Jordy was our stylist and she nailed it! I immediately knew she was the perfect fit from our trial, super easy going and friendly and she does great work! All of my bridesmaids were very impressed as well as my mom! I would highly recommend Queen's Bees and Jordy!

    My hair and makeup trial with Megan was fabulous. I felt beautiful! Jenn was so understanding and supportive regarding our postponement due to COVID. I highly recommend the Queen's Bees to anyone getting married on the central coast.

    WOW! The joy, talent, professionalism

    I don’t know how I got so lucky to work with Jenn, but my goodness, THANK YOU!!! From the very beginning, Jenn was so understanding and always quick to respond no matter how insanely busy she was. When we had to postpone and go through the uncertainty of COVID wedding planning, Jenn was incredibly supportive and kind, even as she had to navigate her own COVID wedding and other life events. From my bridal trial to the day of, Jenn and her team were incredible. I had the pleasure of working with Jenn for my makeup and Kayla for my hair, and they both could take my frazzled/fragments of different bridal hair and make-up inspirations, even when I changed my mind a little after trials, and helped my wedding come together into a beautiful day! We had quite the group of 13 women from all age groups, so I was slightly stressed with such a big and diverse group, but the Queen Bee’s knocked it out of the park. Everyone looked gorgeous and finished on time, which is seriously impressive! The attention to detail and sweet souls really added something special to the day. Jenn was more than just my incredibly talented make-up artist of the day, but like a friend I have known forever and brought me such peace and laughter throughout the morning. I wish I lived closer so I could make up all kinds of excuses to work with them again! I would absolutely recommend them to ANYONE looking for a hair and make-up team. They are so creative and so professional... you will not find a better team anywhere! I love the Queen Bee’s!!!

    Highly recommended hair stylists

    The Queen's Bee, led by Jenn Hix, was so incredibly sweet, supportive, and responsive over the course of our wedding planning and through the pandemic. She arranged a schedule with two of her hair stylists to do hair on the morning of our wedding day. On the day of the wedding, Kayla and Janina were absolutely the sweetest and did a stellar job with the 6 bridesmaids, mother of the groom, and bride. We would recommend them highly and hope to work with them next time we are in the San Luis Obispo area!

    Amazing team!

    These ladies are perfect. Jen did my hair and Maryah did my
    Makeup for my February 2,2020 wedding. I don’t think I have ever felt
    More beautiful. They were so sweet and make
    Me feel so comfortable and totally listened to what I wanted and achieved exactly that. LOVE THEM ! Will

    Higuera Ranch Wedding

    I loved working with Queen's Bees from start to end of the wedding! Jenn, my makeup artist, is a super sweet person who really listened to my thoughts and transformed me to look like my inspiration photos. She even gave me tips on how to fix my tan lines! Lisa, my hair artist, also did a fantastic job and listened to what the bridal party wanted. Overall, everyone was super happy with how they looked and enjoyed getting ready in the morning with Jenn and Lisa!

    I love the Queen's Bees!

    Jessi from the Queen's Bees did the BEST job with my wedding hair and makeup! I decided to do a trial beforehand, and was so glad I did. She was incredibly receptive to my requests, and created a look for me based off my description and pictures of what I wanted. I even went for a run after my hair and makeup trial, and by the time I was done not a hair was out of place! Everything felt so secure and comfortable, and it lasted throughout a long night of dancing and crying.

    She was also extremely kind and professional. I highly recommend the Queen's Bees!

    Made me feel like my best self on my wedding!

    Jen is amazing, thoughtful and so organized! I had a weekend long Indian wedding with an early and tight timeline, she was able to accommodate all my family and friends during our wedding weekend. Jessi and Janina were the best glam squad ever! I had so much fun getting ready with them, they were quick but listened to all the small changes we made to my look. They are such troopers for waking up at the crack of dawn for my wedding! I had the best time just hanging out with them too! Made me wish I always had a beauty team to be around! :). I recommended Jen and her team to a friend of mine getting married in Paso this October as well as I was so pleased with how my looks turned out!

    Love, love, love

    I absolutely love Jordy! She did a great job on my hair. I am SO picky when it comes to how my hair is done, and that was one of my biggest concerns when it came to getting ready for my June 2019 wedding. During our trial, Jordy made me feel so comfortable, listened to all issues I've had in the past, and did a GREAT job that day AND day of! LOVE THEM. All the bridesmaids looked great, as well.

    Still obsessed with my hair and makeup!

    I absolutely loved working with the Queen's Bees, and am still obsessing over my hair and makeup. They were so accommodating, quick to respond, and listened to what look I wanted. I was able to show them inspiration photos, and they paired me with the same makeup artist who had done the makeup in those photos. I wanted a boho glam look, and could not have been happier. My bridesmaids and mother, and MIL loved their hair and makeup too.

    Absolutely perfect

    Everything about the experience with The Queens Bees was great! Jenn is amazing and it’s really fun to work with her. She figured out a perfect timeline for the wedding day that considered all my wishes. My hair and make-up was done by Megan and I absolutely loved it!! I showed her some photos of of what I liked and she created the perfect look for me. It was even better than on any of the photos I showed her! I felt like she totally understood me and created a look that fit me perfectly. She was also super flexible with some last minute changes. I can absolutely recommend Jenn and Megan!!!
