Kiss & Makeup - On Location Hair and Makeup

ok bad! I mean, come on, it's the day where you want to be most beautiful marrying the love of your life! So, I did my research and asked around - but didn't really feel right with anyone. Well, I found Nora and Nikki by accident and THANK GOD I did. From the second I spoke to Nora, it was like speaking to a best girlfriend. She is SO sweet and so very talented. I loved the products she used, her approach to get to know me, my style(day to day and what I do when I get dressed up), and my skin type. She asks the right questions and is so open to hearing what you like/don't like. She gives great skincare and makeup tips too! She has great vibes and I trusted her. Well, She delivered. Nikki killed it with my hair. It was straight out of Pinterest! I have never felt more beautiful and doubt I ever will than I did on my wedding day. She has a great eye for makeup and made me look like a va va voom/amped up version of myself. I can't rave enough about her and you should stop looking now - Hire these girls and you won't regret it - they do an incredible job and will take care of you - plus you will want to be them to be your friend for life.

and confident on your wedding day, but also make sure you have fun doing it. They were SO FAST getting all eight of us ready on my wedding day and yet it really felt like they took their time and paid attention to detail while you were in their chair. I have never felt more beautiful than my wedding day and it's all thanks to them. My bridesmaids and groomswoman had a blast with them as well and really helped keep the energy up during the getting ready process. Once you book them, they really take care of the rest! They reached out to schedule my trial, accommodated my schedule requests, and I had absolutely nothing to worry about. Don't wait and book them now!!

desired makeup looks. This company books out far in advance, so don't hesitate on booking because you will not be disappointed! I will book again with them for my future events.

ionally, they not only braved a winter storm for me, but they still finished ahead of schedule, and did a fenominal job! Cannot recommend this team enough!

& she did not disappoint. She will do whatever she needs to do to ensure your special day is as smooth as possible. I’ll continue to recommend her to all my family and friends!

Fast forward to this year and my experience was absolutely terrible. I never thought I would be experiencing the nightmare of having to find someone new for hair and makeup services 1 month before my wedding, but that’s exactly what happened. I wanted to schedule my hair and makeup trial in the summer of 2022 so I could see if I liked what I thought I wanted to do for my wedding day (and still have time if I needed another trial). I was told they only do trials one month in advance and that I needed to wait. That’s what I did. At the trial, they did my hair and makeup at the same time which made me feel like they were trying to just rush me in and out. We went over some of the details of my wedding and I informed them that we needed to be finished at 11:30AM instead of 12:30PM (because our wedding ceremony start time changed to 1PM). I also informed them that we would be getting ready at my parents’ house in Holly (close to Davisburg) instead of Clarkston. The next day Nora informed me that “we have two options- For an 11:30 am finish time, we can complete 9 people. Or to complete 10 people, we will need a 12 pm finish time.” Therefore, I either needed to push back the completion time or I needed to ask a bridesmaid to not get hair/makeup services. This was frustrating to me because when I booked in November 2021, Nora had agreed to 12 people (which is also on the contract) and had already informed me that there wasn’t enough time to include my sister-in-laws in the hair/makeup services (so we had already reduced the number to 10). Come to find out there is something on her website (nowhere in the contract) that says she will not start any earlier than 7:30am. I must have missed this, but moral of the story, if you have an early ceremony, I would definitely avoid Kiss & Makeup. A few other things… I had to make plans to move my parents’ pets to another location on the day of the wedding, which would have been fine, but I was not able to cancel the accommodation when Nora suggested to me that I should probably try to find someone closer to my location for my hair/makeup services. I was going to pay the travel fee either way, so it was frustrating that she was not willing to accommodate where we would be getting ready (albeit, the location changed from Clarkston to Holly). I requested my deposit back since they would not be holding up their end of the contract and made the suggestion that I find someone else to work with - to which I have received no response. That being said, I booked with someone else and I am very glad I did. Save yourself the trouble and do not book Kiss & Makeup from the beginning.

We talked and laughed like we have known the girls our whole life. I couldn't say enough amazing things about Nora and Nicki. Thank you girls!

d for on my wedding day. I felt beautiful and received many compliments! My mom and mother-in-law were uneasy about having their makeup done as they typically do not wear much, but Nora enhanced their beauty without going over the top and they both loved the result. In addition to the beautiful work they created for everyone, Nora was always great at communicating and was very easy to work with. I had a trial about a month before and she also created an itinerary to avoid any day-of chaos. Very grateful to have these ladies glam up my girls and I on such a special day!

ple's wedding, it is crucial that their day gets off on the right pace, and that starts with the hair/makeup team. These ladies moved along the bridesmaids, bride and mom so quickly and efficiently that they were able to relax and enjoy the day since they weren't rushed and running behind. Not to mention, they all looked stunning when they arrived at the venue and I saw them! I highly recommend Kiss & Makeup and will continue to recommend them to my clients.

bridesmaids and I looked stunning! So many compliments were given! As an Asian American, it's usually difficult to find someone who knows how to work with our hair and features. But they absolutely crushed it, even without a trial (bc of COVID restrictions at the time). So grateful I found Kiss & Makeup!
