MirandaLocal Guide · 12 reviewsiTotal number of Google reviews Miranda has written across all businesses on Google Maps, not just this one.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kim J Beauty! From the trial process to the wedding day itself, Kim was absolutely fantastic to work with. She was patient, easy to communicate with, and helped make sure we found the perfect look for my wedding day. I wanted to feel like myself, just a little more glamorous, and that is exactly how I felt!
Kim did makeup for me and three of our family members, while Alexis handled their hair, and everyone looked absolutely beautiful! The entire getting-ready process was relaxed, organized, and completely stress-free, which was such a wonderful way to start the day. Everyone loved their looks, and everything came together perfectly.
My hair and makeup were everything I had hoped for, and I felt SO beautiful and confident all day. We found a hairstyle that worked perfectly for me, and it stayed in place ALL night, even through hours of celebrating and dancing!
I'm so grateful to Kim and the team for helping make me feel my absolute best on such an important day. I couldn't have been happier with the experience or the results, and I would recommend Kim J Beauty to any bride in a heartbeat!

I worked with Kim J Beauty for my wedding and her team knocked it out of the park. My bridal hair and makeup was perfection and lasted all night, even through sweating and jumping around on the dance floor. Her team uses high quality products and really takes their time to listen to what you are looking for. Several members of my party had never had hair and makeup done before, and they were so happy with the results!! Highly recommend them for not only the bride but moms, aunts, bridesmaids, and flower girls as well. They will come to you for services day of and are just so kind. I do recommend doing a hair and makeup trial so you can make tweaks and adjust for the day of (also very helpful if you’re unsure what you like or are looking for). I did have a few tweaks from my trial, and my artist Nicole executed the changes perfectly. Truly the most beautiful natural makeup and hair you could ask for. Could not be more pleased that we chose Kim J.

Jessica did my hair/makeup personally, and I'm so glad I had her on my wedding day! She kept the mood light and relaxed and I'm still stunned at what she pulled off with my hair. I truly felt like a bride on my wedding day, and my bridesmaids, Mom, and Mother-in-law were all so thrilled with their hair/makeup as well! My outdoor venue experienced rain and strong winds and through all that my gorgeous messy low-bun remained flawless. The whole experience from inquiry to trial to the big day was perfect. I'd hire this team again in a heartbeat.
