I would 110% recommend Kim for your future hair & makeup needs! This was my first time personally hiring a stylist and Kim provided a wonderful experience from our first interaction all the way to final touch-ups. She went over my reference photos to pin point what I liked and disliked. She provided a touch-up kit and answered all the questions I had. We finished my hair and makeup around 8:30am, and everything stayed perfect all day until I got home at 10pm. I was so happy to see that even after a full day of outdoor photos, walking around, and watching a softball game, my hair and makeup looked untouched. I typically get really cakey/oily whenever I put makeup on, but Kim did her magic and I felt airbrushed for 12+ hours. Can’t wait to hire her again for future events!!

LOVED KIM!! My sister & I came to NYC to see Whitney Leavitt on Broadway & just wanted to feel fancy for the night. We rarely wear any makeup other than mascara. Kim was awesome at helping us decide what we wanted as well as what looks good with our skin/undertones/eye color. Very professional & punctual. She has awesome time-management, we finished earlier than expected (even after getting full glam). And after we got our dresses on, she made sure to shade match/blend our skin showing based off our necklines. Our makeup stayed on the entire night with no issues & she even gave us a little custom touch-up kit !

Details: Special occasion • 18 - 25 years old • 26 - 44 years old • I'm flexible • False lashes • 2 people • My home, venue, etc.

Working with KIm was wonderful. She listened and then applied her magic. My makeup was flawless and helped build my confidence as I performed. Would certainly use her again!

I had a outstanding makeup tutorial with Kim, she is a skilled professional? I learned, and was reminded of the “how”to apply which is the trick, when to tap and when to use a line. It’s all coming back to me now. Kim used some of my product and brushes and recommended new colors, I am finally wearing a red I LOVE. I highly recommend Kim!
