I selected Kim off the Thumbtack site due to the previous 5-Star rating. I too can now attest to that outstanding rating. She is quite talented and very patient as after I was I shown “how” then I applied it to my other side. Kim worked with a lot of my makeup and brushes and introduced me to he added her tips, tricks, and colors which translated to me as excitement, defined eyebrows, finally, and a new self confidence.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 Kim Grabow and her team were absolutely phenomenal! They brought our Hallowedding vision to life with flawless looks that perfectly captured each of our characters — Cruella DeVille, The Mad Hatter, Elphaba, and Glinda. Beyond their incredible artistry, Kim and her team were so warm, professional, and easy to be around — they made the day feel calm, fun, and special. Kim even helped with a last-minute wardrobe malfunction, and that extra set of hands was such a lifesaver in the moment! My mom and stepmom were so impressed that they’re already planning to book her for future events (and so are we!). We can’t thank them enough for making us feel like our best, most magical selves on such an important day.

Details: Wedding • 26 - 44 years old • I'm flexible • Halloween / extreme makeup • 2 people • My home, venue, etc.
