I had such a wonderful experience with Kari, my makeup and hair artist for our 30th Anniversary. She did an amazing job during my free trial and was just as wonderful on the actual event day. Kari is incredibly talented, patient, friendly, and professional. Most importantly, she really listened to what I wanted and made sure I felt beautiful and comfortable throughout the entire process. She did a beautiful job with both my makeup and hair, and everything turned out even better than I had hoped. I received so many compliments from our guests. I’m so thankful I chose Kari to be part of such a special milestone in our lives. She helped make my 30th Anniversary celebration even more memorable. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented, caring, and professional makeup and hair artist!

Kari was quick to respond to my request for makeup and hair assistance for a photo shoot and had a great price point. She messaged me to make sure she understood the vision and could meet my needs. She arrived on time and had all materials ready to go. Kari got everything done in a quick timeframe and was personable and flexible for the whole appointment. She checked that the look fit my expectations at multiple points throughout the application. I would highly recommend Kari for any event, whether photos or quinceanera or wedding.

I had such a wonderful experience with Kari! She was incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with from start to finish, which made the whole process stress-free. I needed last minute makeup artist for my photoshoot, and she replied in no time. She also offered to do my hair. Everything was set quickly. Not only is she super kind and professional, but her work is beautiful. She really listens to what you want and makes sure you’re happy with the result. She kept asking me to check everytime she did every part of the makeup and hair to ensure I was happy in how everything turned out. The quality of her makeup is great, my hair turned out amazing (I was confused what I could do with my short fine thin hair and she did small curl which is so cute) Also to mention her prices are very affordable for the amazing service she provides. My husband was also happy with her work, he complimented my look all the time. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented, good value and reliable makeup artist! 💄
