Had a great experience from initial communication to the amazing hair and makeup!
Amazing!! 👏🏻 Madison was my stylist, and she was awesome! She showed up early and even got done early. She really listened to what I wanted and executed it beautifully! I could not have asked for anyone better. She was also very friendly! Loved everything about my hair and makeup! Would definitely recommend!
My experience was amazing! Madi definitely kept the vibe going in our room. She was open and excited about any of the changes I decided to make last minute. The ultimate hype girl!!
I recently traveled from out of state to elope in Colorado and was recommended Kim by my photographer. From the start, Kim was responsive, professional, and easy to work with. She sent Tina, a member of her team, to our Airbnb for hair and makeup for my mother, mother-in-law, and me. Tina arrived early, brought a…
Christine at Kim J Beauty saved the day! I was not confident in doing my own wedding hair and makeup and she absolutely nailed everything I asked for. I even threw her for a loop and had a completely different hairstyle picked out than previously planned and she didn’t bat an eye and put it all together so…
The team at Kim J Beauty (Maddie and Cami) were absolute rockstars! Maddie perfectly captured what I wanted for my hair and make-up in our preview session, and made me super comfortable with the whole process with her vivacious personality. She even convinced me to wear false eyelashes and use setting spray which I…
Kim was amazing throughout this whole process. She is timely in all communication and is very flexible with making changes and updating the requested services. It was so fun getting to meet Kim during my HMU trial, and it put me at ease for the wedding day. During the wedding day, Kim and Jessica were the perfect…
Kim was beyond helpful from the very beginning. She was very organized and her communication was excellent. Christina was so kind and friendly. She did my hair and makeup and did a seamless job. They make a great team.
Kim did an amazing job for my wedding. If I had to do it all over again, I would choose her for sure! She made me, my mom, and my bridesmaids look AMAZING. I changed up my look after the trial and she executed it perfectly on the wedding day. She is very professional and runs a good business! Highly recommend working with her.
Kim J's team did hair and make up for my bridal party in June and did an AWESOME job. Jessica did my hair and makeup and was such a pleasure to work with. I wanted to look like myself but a little glam and she nailed it. They were also super fun to chat and hang with on wedding day! I highly recommend Kim J and her team!
Where to begin with Kim and her teams magic. I can’t put into words how amazing they are to have around you for ANY occasion. Picture getting ready with your best friends before a school dance, you’re all laughing, crying, singing, dancing, and sharing so much love. THAT is the energy Kim and her team bring. They…
All of our HMU services were flawless! Kim does a great job with communication and made me feel confident that everything would be seamless. We had a mixture of girls getting services done who range from wearing no makeup daily to wearing lashes daily and our service providers did a phenomenal jobs with everyone’s…
I originally had an awful trial with a different hair and makeup team and I am so happy I found Kim and her team to save the day! My hair is very thick and she knew exactly what to do to achieve my vision. She and her team were professional and calm on our wedding day, despite our very large bridal party. Every…
Tina at Kim J Beauty was absolutely stellar. She did an incredible job on my hair and makeup. Not only that, but she listened when I talked about the difficulties I had with previous makeup attempts done elsewhere and walked me through every step, making sure I was an active participant in picking out my products so…
I am SO impressed with how my hair and makeup turned out for my wedding!! I had the pleasure of working with Jessica on my big day and found her to be super warm and friendly, she totally put me at ease. As someone who doesn’t normally wear makeup, she fully guided me through different options for how I wanted to…
I can't say enough great things about my experience. The hair and makeup artists were so professional and they did a fantastic job. They really listened to what we wanted and my entire bridal party looked amazing. Kim was very quick to respond when ever I had a question. I would recommend Kim J to anyone getting married who wants a more natural look.
I reached out to Kim and two other makeup/hair stylists as they were all listed on our venues preferred vendor list. Kim was the most prompt with her email communication and sent me a proposal in a timely manner. I also loved that she offered both hair and makeup so I didn't have to coordinate with two different…
Kim and her team (Madison was my stylist) were absolutely great to work with! Madison understood my style and preferences even when I didn't give her much to work with (I was so indecisive, but she was able to interpret what I needed and wanted)! I appreciated the attentiveness and quick response time throughout the…
We used Kim's team for our destination wedding and couldn't have been happier. She was very communicative leading up to the celebration. Her team did not only my bridal hair and makeup, but also the moms, sisters, and kids. Everyone got lots of compliments. I highly recommend!
My hair stylist/makeup artist Tina was AMAZING! She was super communicative, not only the day of, but also leading up to the big day, which made for a stress-free experience. Upon meeting her, she was so kind and warm, I immediately felt comfortable and as if I'd known her for many years. By the time she left, I…
I can’t say enough wonderful things about the team from Kim J Beauty. I worked with them for my intimate wedding on September 8th, 2022 in Estes Park, CO. Ashley & Sydney did my bridal trial, as well as on site hair and makeup for me, my bridesmaids, my mother in law, and even styled my fiancés long hair. Quite…
Ashley did such a great job for my anniversary shoot! My hair and makeup lasted through a hike in the Rocky Mountains in late August and I felt so beautiful. She nailed the boho look I was hoping for!
Kim did an incredible job with my hair and makeup for my wedding! At my trial, she tried things and then started over, just to make sure I was completely satisfied. I asked for light makeup, and she delivered - I even had to ask her to go a little heavier, which she did, and it was perfect. On my wedding day, she…
Better than I could’ve imagined! I’m usually the one doing the make up and am super picky. The final look was better than my inspo!
Kim J Beauty made my wedding hair dreams come true! My husband and I eloped in Loveland Pass, and having them come to me to do my hair was a life saver, as I don’t know the area and had no clue where to start. I was a little worried since I was unable to do a test run, but little did I know I had nothing to worry…
I would definitely recommend Kim J Beauty to other brides! She was recommended to me by my planner and Kim was booked on my wedding day. I booked one of her associates Morgan and was so happy I did. Morgan was fun to spend time with, did incredible hair and makeup that lasted all night. I had her do my rehearsal…
I am very happy with hair and make up. Sydni and Tosha helped us. Almost all of my bridesmaids commented on how good their makeup was compared to previous weddings that they have been in. My hair stayed up ALL night and I definitely didn't hold back on my dancing. My eyebrows weren't exactly what I wanted…
Kim and her team were so helpful! Tina did an incredible job with everyone’s hair and makeup, and made sure we had plenty of time to spare. My hair and makeup lasted through a ton of tears, wind, and a little rain and still looked amazing! Everyone was so nice and went above and beyond to make our day special. Thank you!
Kim was absolutely AMAZING!! From the bridal hair trial to the day of she was professional, easy going, and fun. She had a huge task ahead of her (7 of us ladies) and she did not disappoint. I couldn't have asked for a better experience!
Kim did my hair and makeup as well as my wedding party over Labor Day weekend. She was amazing!! Her and her team did such a great job with our hair and makeup and made sure all of our styles went well together. She also was such a pleasure to have. By the end of the hair and makeup time, her team felt like they were part of the wedding party!
Kim J Beauty’s wonderful team did my hair and make up for my wedding along with 6 bridesmaids & 2 Moms. Communication leading up to the day was easy - she provided a schedule and answered all of my questions quickly. Her team was professional, timely and kind. I did not do a trial but the team executed the natural…
We used Kim J for hair and makeup for our wedding party and had a really disappointing experience from start to finish. I hadn't had a lot of experience booking hair and makeup, so didn't have a lot of expectations, but was more than disappointed with the coordination and communication. I had to take time off from…
