I cannot say enough kind and amazing words about Kristina and her team. She helped me with my nerves, made my wedding party feel so special (including my flower girls!), and everyone was so impressed with her kind-hearted nature. I can’t recommend this team enough, they are absolutely amazing!!!

Kristina is amazing! Always responsive to emails and so helpful with questions and changes to our booking. My hair and makeup trial was the first time meeting her- she’s so fun and knowledgeable! The wedding hair and makeup for me and the party all turned out stunning- we got so many compliments!! Do not hesitate to book with her.

Kristina was absolutely wonderful to work with for my wedding weekend. She did hair and makeup for my mom and I, and we truly enjoyed our experience. Kristina is SO delightful to be around, and she made our time getting ready together so special-- It was definitely a highlight of my day. Her work is impeccable-- my mom and I felt so beautiful, and she did exactly what we wanted. Despite it being a hot and sunny Florida day for our outdoor wedding, our hair and make-up lasted the entire time-- it was a sweaty evening on the dance floor! I can't recommend Kristina enough-- we were thrilled to have her!!

Kristina is AMAZING!!! She is so talented and she exceeded my expectations by far. Everything about my hair and makeup was so perfect and she made it so much fun. Look no further, you need her ! I didn’t even have a trial with her and she truly listened to my thoughts and what I wanted. I am so happy I chose Kristina.

I hired Kristina to do my hair and makeup for my wedding. I found her on Instagram, as she has done many weddings at my venue. Earlier in my wedding week, I also contacted her about cutting my hair! She did an amazing job on everything! She made everyone feel beautiful. She was very timely in her responses, she was very personable with me, my family, and my friends. I would absolutely recommend her for anything hair and makeup! I will also be returning to her for my future haircuts as well!

Kristina is beyond talented! When I walked into my trial she was super nice, we discussed a bit what I wanted but I was open to any suggestions she had. Everything came out so beautiful. My makeup wasn't heavy (I got the air brushing) and my hair stayed all night. No bobby pins were bothering me all night and she provided me with extra product. The day of the wedding she replicated it exactly and the work she did on my girls and the moms were so beautiful. She truly has a talent for what she does and will make sure you feel your best. Amazing to work with.

If you're wondering whether you should book Lavana Beauty, DO IT! You'll be so glad you did! I can't recommend Kristina enough. She was so helpful in guiding me towards finding the best hair and makeup look for my wedding day. Even the times that I was worried about a decision or doubted something, Kristina was always right and I'm so glad I trusted her. My hair and makeup were flawless and both lasted the entire day and night - even outdoors in the South Florida heat and humidity. I would also recommend booking a trial beforehand. This helped me try out my hair and makeup and make small adjustments to get it perfect for the wedding day. It also helped me see how well they both held up (I was skeptical given the extreme heat and humidity, but I was pleasantly surprised). Besides being an amazing hair and MUA, Kristina was also extremely professional, very punctual, listened really carefully to my ideas and fears, and also did a wonderful job with my mom and maid of honor's hair and makeup.

Amazing!!!! My mom and I traveled for a wedding and were so grateful to have found her. Not only is she personable and nice but extremely talented. I was planning on only getting my makeup done but she did such a beautiful job that I decided to get my hair done as well! Thank you so much! We will definitely be returning if we have another event in the area!

Kristina was so great to work with. She took my inspiration pictures and made them come to life with my hair and makeup for my wedding. She made me look and feel so beautiful. The makeup and hair also lasted the whole night and still looked great at the end of the night. She also did all the makeup for my bridal party, mom, and mother-in-law. Everyone looked so great!

Kristina at Lavana Beauty is absolutely the BEST! My Daughter & I came into town for a wedding; and she was more than accommodating with her busy schedule and went above and beyond our expectations. Her work is amazingly beautiful and professional! She is an absolute joy to work with. Kristina has a wonderful spirit & positive energy she brings with her. If we need makeup and hair done in the future and are in the area, we are without a doubt going to her 💕

Kristina and her team did a wonderful job on my hair and makeup, my 8 bridesmaids, my mom, my husbands mother, and my aunt. All different types of hairstyles and style preferences and they embraced exactly what each individual girl wanted! We all felt beautiful and supported by Kristina! I would recommend her to any bride!!!

Kristina and her assistant did an amazing job getting myself, my 5 bridesmaids, and the mother's of the bride/groom ready for my wedding! We had an early morning as our photographer wanted us ready at 1pm. Kristina and her assistant arrived early and were set-up ready to go well when my bridal party arrived at 7am. I was even extra difficult and changed my hairstyle the day of and tasked her with adding extensions. Everyone's hair and make-up were so so beautiful we all received so many compliments. I highly recommend using Lavana Beauty for your Wedding or any hair/make-up needs!!

You were no difficult at all!! We loved working with you and your family! Thaaaank you so...

Kristina did the hair/makeup for my bridal party for my wedding this past weekend and she was outstanding! Not only did everyone love how their hair/makeup turned out but she ended up doing my hair (the bride) when she wasn't supposed to because being from Chicago my bridesmaid who was originally supposed to do my hair was not prepared for the florida humidy and my hair would not cooperate. Kristina had all the tricks and she went above and beyond to make sure my day turned out perfect and I will forever be thankful for that. She's exactly the person you want helping you get ready, not only for her skills but because she really cares about making sure you're stress free and happy. Do yourself a favor and hire this girl!

Thank you for such a wonderful review! It was my pleasure! Kristina

I booked Kristina for my wedding day as a reference from my original make up artist who had to cancel and I was BLOWN away by her. Not only was she able to accommodate me, my bridesmaids, mother, MIL, and my aunt but she did a flawless job on us in that short amount of time. She is so sweet and was the most calming presence to have around during my episodes of freaking out throughout the morning. Book her ASAP for your wedding or for any occasion, she is a must have!!

Josie A

You need Kristina for your next event!!! She is absolutely amazing at what she does and you can tell she has a true love and passion for it! She has done multiple events for me including my wedding. Let’s just say, people are STILL talking about my hair!!!

I have never felt more beautiful in my life. Kristina is a true gem, and a master at her craft. She did hair and makeup for both me and my daughter in my wedding day. Hands down one of the best decisions made for my wedding was hiring Kristina! Thank you for everything!

Kristina did me and my mothers hair and makeup on my wedding day, she was great I gave her an idea of what I wanted and she blew it out of the park. Also my mother was really worried she wouldn’t be able to have an updo because her hair is extremely thin but Kristina pulled off an amazing updo my mother looked amazing walking me down the aisle!! 10/10

kristina is very thorough. she makes sure you love what she's created. I am not the kind of girl that even knows what to ask for when it comes to hair and make up, and she knew just what to do for me with the very few instructions I did have. she is extremely talented. I asked her to do a braid that was very intricate and though she wasn't sure how to do it, she figured it out with determination. she wasn't even frustrated when we both decided it wasn't a fit for me. I changed my hair choice after my trial and she executed it better than imaginable and it was perfect for my dress. She had 8 projects on the day of my wedding between myself and my girls and she even did my sister's hair twice, my sister was a brat about her first hair do even though I think it looked great, kristina didn't mind at all and insisted on fixing it and still finished exactly as we planned. to say she has mastered the art would be an understatement. she also helped me keep my cool when the sh*t was hitting the fan. I would choose lavana beauty over and over again. if you don't you're missing out.

Are you looking for a quality hair and make up artist who will bring out your natural beauty on your special day and someone reasonably priced? Look no further than Kristina with Lavana Beauty Hair and Make Up! I booked Kristina for my wedding and bridal party hair and make up. She delivered the look for hair and make up exactly as I was looking for! She truly listened to the looks we wanted and brought out our beauty. I got married in June when it was 90 degrees and sunny and my hair and make up held all day and night! My make up looked as flawless at the end of the night as it did when I first got it done. I highly recommend booking with Kristina! I felt so beautiful on my wedding day thanks to Kristina’s skills!

Kristina and team were perfect on our wedding day! She listened and it was obvious she truly cares about her clients and their visions. There are not enough words to describe how happy we ALL WERE! The bridesmaids were gorgeous as were the mothers (and of course bride)! Lavana Beauty was prompt and made sure that everyone was ready on time. Kristina really took her time to make sure everyone looked perfect. I can’t thank you enough for everything! We are so happy with how our day turned out.

Kristina does an AHHHMAZING job with hair and make up. She was very kind and personable the whole time. She made sure to listen to my requests for hair & make up and I LOVED how it all turned out. Would definitely recommend!!

Eileen K

4/05/2021

Kristina was phenomenal! I was very hesitant about getting my hair and makeup done because I never wear make up nor have I ever had my hair or make up done. From the very first encounter to the actual wedding day she made me feel STUNNING and BEAUTIFUL. The most important part was I felt so comfortable with her and was able to be honest about if I was unsure about anything. From my makeup/ hair trial to the wedding day she did not skip a beat and my bridesmaids felt the exact same way. The true test was when my fiancé/ husband saw me- since I never have any makeup on I was looking for a very natural look to enhance myself. She did just that and to this day my husband gets teary eyed.

Kristina did an absolutely AMAZING job on makeup for my wedding. She was super helpful when my mom and I were deciding if we should do airbrush or traditional makeup and gave amazing guidance when it came to picking out our look for the day. Even when things were starting to get a little hectic and some other things were going wrong on the day of the wedding, Kristina helped keep me calm and kept me focused on getting ready, relaxing and enjoying the moments. She kept reminding me to take a deep breathe and that everything was going to be beautiful and it was! She was more than just my makeup artists that day and I would recommend her to everyone, no matter the event!

I had a destination wedding here at Ft. Meyers so I was searching online for someone to do my hair and makeup when I came across Lavana Beauty Hair and Makeup and looked at her work and loved it so I gave her a call. I couldn’t have asked for a better stylist for my wedding for me and my girls! I was so incredibly happy with literally everything! She came prepared, she was pleasant to talk to, she does exactly what you tell her you want and she is very reasonably priced too. My girls and I were very very happy. She had so much high quality makeup to choose from that color matching was not an issue and she had an endless amount of eye shadow that she knew exactly how to mix and blend to make your eyes look amazing! I would 1000% recommend Kristina to anyone! You will not be disappointed! She was truly wonderful!

Kristina is the best there is! Over the years she cut, colored, braided my hair, did my makeup and various updos for different occasions: from simple headshots to the perfect bridesmaid’s look. My wedding is coming up next year, and I have absolutely no doubts who to hire to make me look amazing and feel special on this day! She is very talented, creative, full of idea and knowledgeable of all current trends and techniques. Whether you like bold & dramatic or more natural look, she will be able to accommodate all your requests and concerns and make sure you look absolutely amazing!

It was such a pleasure to work with Kristina for my wedding! With only two weeks left until the event, she swooped in and saved the day when my original artist fell sick. She was responsive, attentive, and organized, and was so easy to work with. Kristina was on time and worked quickly – we were done with plenty of time to spare and hang out, which was wonderful. She listened to my wedding party and was able to create beautiful, individualized looks. Plus our makeup lasted all day through the Florida summer heat and still looked flawless! I highly recommend Lavana Beauty Hair and Makeup!
