Kristen is Truly ONE OF A KIND!!  I have been going to Kristen for over 20 years, and her talent is top-notch.  Whether she is doing my hair or makeup for a special occasion, I always know I am in the best hands.  In more than 20 years, I have never once left unhappy.  She takes the time to really know her clients, i.e., their likes, dislikes, personalities, and what makes them feel beautiful - and she ALWAYS gets it just right.  She is incredibly talented, personable, professional, creative, and accommodating.  She truly cares about her clients and goes above and beyond to make sure you feel confident, beautiful, and completely yourself.  The compliments I receive on my hair and makeup whenever I attend an event are endless.  Over the years, Kristen has been a part of so many special occasions and moments in my life.  What started as a client relationship has grown into a 20+ year friendship, and that is something I treasure more than words can say.  If you are looking for someone who is exceptionally talented, attentive, caring and genuinely invested in making you look and feel your absolute best, KRISTEN IS YOUR GIRL!! I couldn’t recommend her more highly.  She is truly a gem, and I feel so fortunate to have had her in my life and in my corner for more than two decades.  I miss her now that she is in Florida.  My loss is your gain. - Lisa F.

I have gone to Kristen for both hair and makeup for absolutely everything. From random times I wanted to look & feel extra special, to each important experience in my life!  Kristen has done my hair and makeup for countless date nights, special occasions, holidays, and photo shoots (engagement & maternity ). She was, of course, the only person I would let do my hair and makeup on my wedding day! Anytime I want to look my absolute best, I go to Kristen! And I am always so glad that I did!  She has an energy and personality that puts you at ease and she has an incredible talent for understanding the look you want, and creating beauty above and beyond what you had hoped for ❤️ You will not be disappointed.
