I don't wear a lot of make up often so I wanted a more natural look which she nailed. She was super easy/fun to talk to as well. We changed our wedding date a few days prior due to a coming snow storm, and Jen was so accommodating in changing her schedule to fit our new wedding date. She was a lifesaver! I suggest going to her for a trial as well; I did the day before the wedding and had flawless makeup for my rehearsal dinner. This also made for wonderful photos and one less thing to worry about on my wedding day. Choose Kiss and Makeup for your wedding or any special occasion; you won't regret it!

From the beginning, Michelle has seemed like one of my best friends! For my engagement photos, I decided last-minute I wanted HMU and she graciously worked me into her day. Love is in the Hair is very responsive to emails, texts, and all communication. I felt like I was a true Tahoe bride from that point on! I knew I was in good hands for my wedding HMU with Michelle! She made me feel so beautiful by accentuating my natural features. I typically don't wear a lot of make-up day-to-day and she knew exactly what kind of HMU would be best. She is the expert and I left it up to her and she exceeded my expectations! She is truly PHENOMENAL! My mom came with me for my HMU trial. We showed her a few Instagram and Pinterest inspiration photos and Michelle began her magic! We had so much fun with Michelle and it got us even more excited in the month leading up to the wedding. She was showing us which products work best and why. We gave me several tips on make-up application. She is so wonderful! She has a passion for HMU and you can tell. She sincerely listens to what you want and has the expertise to bring it to fruition. Michelle did my HMU for my rehearsal dinner and for my wedding. I felt so relaxed and had so much fun with her and the Love is in the Hair team. I completely trust her and she is a true professional. She knows that this is your big day and makes you feel and look like your most beautiful self! Michelle gave me a blow-out for my rehearsal that would have lasted the entire weekend!

My review as the Bride…read more I had a great experience with my makeup and felt absolutely beautiful on my big day. My makeup artist Kendyl, Erika (the owner) and I had met back in April 2025 for my trial, and not knowing 100% sure what makeup look I wanted to go for, we experimented different colors during the trial. I had 6 months since the trial until my wedding day to think about what tweaks I wanted to make and there were definitely a few on my list. The big day had arrived and it was like catching up with an old friend talking to my artist. She asked what changes I had in mind since I had messaged her a month ago that I had found an image of a makeup look I was interested in, but had forgotten to submit the image. I had explained to her that the route we were going was correct, but some things had overpowered my face. My daily look is pretty much no makeup so going from bare face to complete glam was a huge 180 for me. After telling her each change that I had in mind, she pulled out the product that she had in mind after she reviewed the picture of me from my trial. It was as if she had already read my mind. Lashes too bulky, she had lashes that were more natural ready to go; foundation was a shade darker than my skin tone and felt more cakey, she had a matte foundation that matched more my skin tone; lip was looking too raspberry pink and wanted a more natural lip pink, she had the right lip stain already in her ammunition. I wanted to keep the suspense and did not look into a mirror and had my bridal party and family to be my eyes and decision makers. After all was done, I took a look in the mirror and felt like I was having an out of body experience. I didn't recognize this glamazon in the mirror and almost felt uncomfortable because I didn't believe that was me. We were supposed to have touchups done at the end but because of a late start due to construction (no ones fault) and taking a little too long to get into my dress, we weren't able to do one, but was able to squeeze in a quick powder touch up on my chest to cover up the acne. I am a crier and was nervous the makeup would not last (I've had previous experiences where the makeup was gone within hours), but it held up all throughout the entire day. My husband had complimented on how I looked and loved that he can still see me and not a complete stranger. He's used to seeing my bare face every day lol. Overall my experience, as the Bride, was amazing and loved every minute of it. I loved the interaction my artist and I had during the process. Thank you for making me look beautiful on my wedding day. I'm sad that I'll never look like that ever again lol, but who knows, people have vow renewals for a reason lol.

Women Should Empower Each Other, Sadly, That Wasn't My Experience with Kendyl…read more I normally don't post negative reviews, but I feel it's important to share my honest experience so others can make an informed decision. I had my makeup done by Kendyl as part of a bridal party, and unfortunately, the experience left me feeling uncomfortable, disrespected, and gaslighted. When I explained that I wanted a green eyeliner with neutral tones and a little glitter, she immediately questioned whether I had "cleared it with the bride," implying that I was trying to outshine her which was never the case. Her tone was judgmental and defensive from the start, making the interaction tense and awkward. She said she didn't have time to contour my face but maybe could "do it later." That "offer" was never actually followed through, and instead she continued to make excuses, saying contouring was considered "full glam" and that the bride hadn't told her I wanted that. Rather than simply moving on, she kept shifting blame and trying to make me feel like I was being difficult for even asking. I calmly told her that was fine, I could do my own contour since I had my own makeup. But when I said to just apply blush and skip bronzer so I could finish the rest myself, she became visibly agitated and said, "No. I do blush and bronzer" as if I wasn't allowed to make decisions about my own face. She also made condescending comments about makeup techniques, as if assuming I knew nothing, and later told the bride she had offered to contour me which was not true, she kept trying to make me feel bad about asking. I didn't receive lashes, only eyeliner and two eyeshadows, yet was still charged for a full service. What upset me most was how manipulative and unkind the whole experience felt. She made subtle comments that seemed intended to create tension between me and my closest friend of 24 years who is like a little sister to me, which was completely inappropriate. On a wedding day, an artist's energy should be supportive and calming, not defensive and blaming. I left feeling disrespected, lied to, and taken advantage of. I hope this review encourages more professionalism, honesty, and empathy in future client interactions. A makeup artist's job isn't just about skill, it's about helping people feel comfortable and confident, not criticized or manipulated. At the end of the day, women should empower each other, not tear one another down. Kindness, respect, and integrity will always be more beautiful than any makeup look.
