I am a June 2023 bride. My biggest worry in trying to find a Hair & MUA for my wedding was: I…read morewanted to have a natural/soft glam style of makeup for my wedding day AND I have Asian features and haven't had the best experience with Western makeup styles and products. There are only a handful of vendors that meet these requirements, but I was so happy when I came across Christy K. When I had my trial, I could tell Christy was very knowledgable and provided excellent recommendations given that I was a very lost bride with almost no clue what direction I wanted to go for my makeup. On the day of the wedding, we had a very limited time window with 7 ladies who needed to get ready. Christy and her team not only got us ready with beautiful makeup & hair, but also finished much faster than the timeline we had previously discussed! And therefore, we had more time to do other wedding related activities. Her rates were also very reasonable. We received many compliments of how beautiful, yet natural we looked! There is one special thing I wanted to note about Christy and team. I had an outfit change from my Western bridal dress into my Chinese qipao. The makeup style for these two outfits can sometimes be very different - and if not done correctly, I wouldn't have looked as good in one or the other. However, the way Christy and her hairstylist did my hair and makeup worked perfectly with both outfits. Incredible talent! I don't always like how I look in photos and videos, but the way Christy and her team got us ready (as well as the few photo sneak previews) has me so excited for the upcoming photos and videos! I am so grateful for Christy K and team for making me look and beautiful on my wedding day! If you're looking for a top-notch makeup and hair artist that specializes in Asian features, I highly recommend Christy and team!

Warning, don't try booking Christy if you value your time or professionalism. My wife and I booked…read morea photography date and then sent the attached email to Christy to confirm the day and time window. When we contacted Christy again to finalize the exact time, she had told us that she booked another client. This meant we had to scramble to find another makeup artist for the date we already set with the photographer. Christy claims she didn't confirm the date stating that her first email says "-Booking is confirmed till contract signed." She may want to learn to proof read because I don't think she realizes she wrote the opposite of her claim. She could also have been more professional to check back with us before booking someone else if she really wasn't sure that we would continue our originally schedule date with her.

I have visited the salon for my wedding hair and make-up application. It was such a wonderful…read moreexperience that I have working with both Ashley and Lauren. The make-up looks flawless and stunning on my special day. Somehow, I have ordered the wrong hair extensions type (tape-on) from Amazon (instead of clip-on). The amount also not enough as well. Luckily, she had an extra clip-on with exact color and was able to let me use it. I really appreciated how Lauren had went above and beyond to make sure the clip-on and tape-on blend well together. Couple days after, I went to get the extensions removed. The process to remove them was also not painful as I thought also.

No one told me she was running late, so I sat there for 40 minutes with zero communication about what was going on. When I finally got in the chair, she gave me the worst haircut of my life. I brought inspiration photos for a cute, simple cut. Honestly my hair already looked close to the photo, I just needed my layers trimmed. Instead I walked out with nonconsensual mullet. I wanted to cry when I saw it. It's been months and it still hasn't grown out. I went to a wedding and people thought I was wearing a WIG. That's how bad it is. My self esteem has taken a real hit over this. This is genuinely one of those horror stories friends swap at brunch. Went in for a trim, left with a literal mullet. And a note for the owner: just because we're in Seattle doesn't mean everyone walking in wants some edgy alternative cut. I did try to handle this privately first. I reached out to the owner to fix it and got completely ghosted. I was ready to lick my wounds and move on, until I opened my email to find an announcement that this same stylist was back from vacation and I should book with her. Obviously a mass email to the whole list, but after being ignored, it felt like a slap in the face. So here we are, doing this publicly. I'm posting photos so you can see how wild this is. The bottom photo is the cut I asked for, the top is what I actually got, plus a shot of my hair a month later.

As someone who doesn't wear a lot of makeup, I was thrilled with how Jess made me feel beautiful and glam while still looking like myself. A special shoutout to Caleigh, who did my autistic sister's makeup. She was so sweet and understanding, allowing my sister to take breaks when she felt overwhelmed, and I am sincerely thankful for her patience. I highly recommend Jess and her team for your wedding makeup!

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 spent 4 hours on my trial and tried two totally separate styles because I really couldn't decide how I wanted to do my hair. She listened to exactly what I wanted in terms of makeup and never made me feel pressured or anxious about it. I know that during the wedding planning process, I was a little unsure because her social media presence is less than some of her peers (and I wanted to see photos) - but seriously, do.not.worry. You are in the best of hands. My bridal party looked incredible thanks to Kat and her team - do yourself a favor and book them. And if Kat's skills weren't enough - wow, she is just a lovely human being. She is so calm and grounded and was just a wonderful person to spend time with. I can't recommend her enough.

Been here twice now. Over a year ago a woman cut my hair that no longer works here. I like that…read morethey have you ring a bell and then they buzz you in for safety. Beverages are offered and they use great products. However my second visit was just a few days ago with Sarah. What I asked for I got the complete opposite. She gave me a blow out so my hair looked beautiful leaving but the next day washing it seeing my natural waves and curls and really inspecting the cut. I look a bit chopped. The front was not face framing instead she gave me 4 steps. The front is uneven and choppy as heck. My hair is gone so no way to fix that and wouldn't trust her to fix it tbh so I have to take an expensive loss. I cried all night yesterday just looking at the front pieces. Just embarrassing. I paid a lot and tipped very well just for it to look like an amateur cut my hair. Don't come here. I regret coming here as I looked better with my dead ends. I could've cut my own hair better which I have. This was supposed to be a pick me up to make me feel beautiful now 2 days later I am in regret not feeling like how I should and wanted. Sooooo expensive and terrible results. Also they could've been friendlier. I felt she got tired blow drying my hair. They are supposed to be knowledgeable in long, thick hair, curly hair, wavy hair. I wanted to choose this stylist due to her good reviews but I really cannot recommend her or this salon. I don't like leaving bad reviews but I am distraught. Don't come here as you will cry tears of sadness not joy.
