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 was really happy with the results; she was perfect at creating the subtle, Asian-style makeup I was looking for. Nicole will be my go-to make-up stylist for the future. I'm super happy with the results!

Not only did my hair look amazing all day, but she brought such a calm, positive energy to the wedding morning--it felt like having a good friend there.

From the very start, Off White made the process easy and enjoyable. Megan provided clear information about every step of the process, and helped connect us to Nicole, who is not only very skilled and professional, but also incredibly kind, warm, and easy to connect with. Our makeup trial was a great experience, she listened closely to our feedback, made thoughtful adjustments, and was so responsive to any small changes we wanted.

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.

3 weeks ago my girlfriends and I went to visit Daniel and we had an excellent time. Not only is he…read moreknowledgable in makeup application, he also gave us quick tips for proper skin care, which I think a lot of MUA and consumers don't take time to invest in. Daniel did a different look on each of us (smoky eye, neutral eye bold lip, and bold eye neutral) and we were ecstatic. Everything I had taught myself about makeup application I practically had to throw out and start from scratch. He also shade matched each of us to a tee and taught us how to pick the right foundation for our skin/undertone. Whether it's for an event or you want beginners tips on MU application, Daniel is your guy. Very personable and and warm spirit, I absolutely will visit him again.

He communicated through texts, and sent me directions and info for my appointment which was helpful. His studio is in an active space building on Aurora by the zoo. Easy street parking. The lesson was great - he really seems to enjoy educating and is all about delivering quicker results and cutting out unnecessary steps. The lesson started with some skin care, and went through natural, every day looks, to a Smokey eye (daytime) and then more dramatic. You have the option of having lashes or not. He sells products, but there is no hard sell at all. I purchased what I really liked and he gave me a sample of another product I was on the fence about. I left feeling like I got more than my money's worth.
