Hired on Thumbtack
I was having pictures done with my husband for our anniversary. I haven't worn or applied makeup in a long time. Wanted to look my best but not overdone. Krista was the perfect choice. Fun and easy to work with. It took an hour to have my face looking prettier with a natural outcome. My husband liked it too!

Krista did an amazing job on my hair and makeup. I loved that she came to me as I am from out of town and we had a lot going on.

I booked Krista for my client’s Boudoir session and she did amazing. She was on time and came prepared. The makeup and hair she did on my client looked amazing! She was done right on time as well. Will definitely book her again.

Krista was amazing! It was my mother and I that needed our hair done and I needed my weddingmakeup done. She was very punctual despite the lodge we were in being in BFE. She also was very conversive that helped me get my mind off of my nervousness prior to the ceremony, I had a great time. My makeup was FLAWLESS for my special day and I couldn't have asked for anyone better to do it. Thank you so much!

If I could select all five options for reviewing Kristas work, I would. I’m a little peeved that I can’t. Do better Thumbtack! Krista did an AMAZING job and made me feel so beautiful on my 40th birthday. She was so much fun and answered so many questions from both my and my friend. I highly recommend her!!! If I’m ever in nashville again, I will definitely be wanting my makeup done by her. Thank you so much Krista!!
