She is very professional (reliable, flexible, organized, and always accessible) and really enjoys what she does - a true artist. She carefully selects her products which are excellent quality.

Her technique and application was perfect for the light and setting being used during the photoshoot. I have a short pixie haircut, and she nailed the styling. She provided just enough texture while creating movement through the shots. I highly recommend Kat for all your makeup and hair styling needs; she is an expert on what is needed based on the setting.

As a headshot photographer, and because the images I create are mainly closeups, I need an artist…read morewho understands how to apply makeup that is effective and very natural looking while still revealing the skin's texture. It can be difficult to find someone who can actually accomplish that and Kurumi is able to do that better than any makeup artist I've worked with. She's got a great eye for detail not only with makeup but with her hair styling as well. The difference between the work she's done with my clients compared to other artists I've used in the past is night and day. She's now the only person I call when I need a hair and makeup artist for a shoot. What I also really value about Kurumi is the way she works with my clients. She's engaging and always able to relate and speak with them so easily. By the time they get in front of my camera, they're relaxed and ready to go. That makes my job so much easier!

Plus she has such a charming personality and is VERY easy and fun to work with. We recently worked together in a photoshoot, Mandy made our model look so magical and effortless, creating 2 different looks to emphasize the vibe we were going for on each set. She definitely helped create a lot of wow reactions on set and once people saw the photos. I cannot wait to work together again!

Her style makes you look naturally beautiful in person and in photos. She was very easy to work with, very reasonable prices, and adaptive with your preparation area.

I highly recommend her!

The owner is unbelievable horrible at communication. I spent weeks trying to get a hold of her to…read moreset up day of timeline, and only heard back from her after messaging her on instagram a week before the wedding, coincidentally when final payment is due. During our trial, she said "ha, I'm always late, but it seems to work out" No kidding, we agreed on 8am start, she showed up at 922. Her second artist, her brother, showed up closer to 8, and was amazing, no complaint with him. I do not see how someone runs a business without answering any texts or emails. She posts on instagram all the time, so that's probably the best way to find her even after you are a paying client. There's a number on the website but even when you call it, it basically says they don't answer phones. It got to the point without any communication, my bridesmaids all brought their hair and makeup supplies because we weren't even sure Urbanista would show up at all. Not great vibes to an already stressful day. We would have rebooked and lost the deposit, but hard to find makeup artist less than 2 months before event. Would not recommend, added so much extra stress. They get 2 stars instead of 1, because her brother was amazing, and people did compliment on my makeup (which he did).

Yessie is so kind and thoughtful. She traveled to do my hair and makeup on site for my wedding and…read moreshe also took care of the groom (Wes said for days his eyebrows have never looked so good :) ). She left me with some lipstick for touch ups later in the day which I had not expected and I really, really appreciated. Every moment with Yessie is calm and collected and she was so pleasant to be around during my trial session before my engagement photos and on my wedding day. Yessie was always flexible and tried out different hairstyles with me at my trial. She was really patient and we felt awful when Wes forgot to bring down her final payment from our room to pay her on our wedding day.. so she had to wait until we could send my brother to our room to find the envelope we had prepared for her. In the end, we finally got it to her in-person, despite some confusion over where to find her when she stepped out for lunch but she took the delay in stride and never showed any impatience or unhappiness with us to which I am forever grateful. Really embarrassing for me to share, but I just really wanted to thank Yessie and explain just how perfect she was to us despite our hiccups. Thanks Yessie for being so fantastic and understanding!

TL;DR: Do NOT book with her…read more I am extremely disappointed with my experience and feel obligated to warn others. I booked this hair and makeup artist last year for my August 2026 wedding and paid a deposit to secure my date. Everything seemed fine at the time of booking, but when I reached out in January to schedule my trial, I received no response. I followed up multiple times over the course of four months via email, text, and phone calls--ignored every time. My wedding planner also attempted to contact her on my behalf, with no success. At this point, it is clear this is not a case of a missed message or temporary delay--Yessie ghosted me as a client. Because of this, I was forced to find and book a new hair and makeup artist under time pressure, adding unnecessary stress during what is already a busy planning period. To make matters worse, I never received my deposit back. For other future brides out there, please do not let Yessie scam you. Taking a client's deposit and then completely disappearing without any communication or services rendered is unacceptable.

She also gave me hair and nail recommendations. She knows key people in the business. She made a call for me two weeks before my wedding and hooked me up last minute to someone who could do my hair. Marqui came to my home and my partner and I immediately connected with her again in person. She is lovely. I would hire her again in a heartbeat for a solo gig or a large wedding. Her calm demeanor, make-up expertise and the connection we had with her made our wedding day even better. As she worked with me it was clear she was truly an artist. She is very open to ideas and a great listener too. She is also super organized with her communication portal/text messages. I can't say enough!

On the day of the wedding, Kendra arrived on time and did the hair for two bridesmaids and my mother's and my hair and makeup in about 4 hours. She ensured that we all looked beautiful and that we were out the door for photos on time. She worked her magic on my fine hair to ensure that it had volume and that the curls held throughout the day! She is very energetic, personable, and a true expert in this field. Her pricing is also super competitive for bridal makeup/ hair in the Seattle area!

She books trials too close to the date, so when the trial went sideways, I had to add a to do to the busy planning, which wasn't ideal. Kendra seems to have a one size fits all approach to makeup, and she doesn't listen. She has a heavy handed approach to application (see her instagram). She is condescending and makes little snide comments that are little biting insults. When I mentioned that my eyebrows were way too dark and overdone, her response "eyebrows are a non-negotiable"... umm, wth is that about? Anyway, upon calling other artists, it seems that Kendra has quite the reputation with her peers. They've heard my story from other folks that have attempted to work with Kendra. Recently, Kendra has announced that she is "mostly" retiring from makeup application, but beware that she is still hiring out makeup artists under her KLS business. There are numerous other capable professionals in the area, and I would highly recommend looking to them if you have any interest in natural and flattering makeup. I gave kendra the opportunity to make this right with a partial refund, which she chose to ignore.
