Katie Kelly

Katie did my wedding hair this past weekend and i loved it so so much. I have super fine hair so I always feel like it won’t come out how I want - but Katie killed it. My hair did not come undone all night and I was so happy with it. She did so many different styles for my bridesmaids and mother and mother in law and was so fast and professional. She was so great to work with!!

I couldn’t have been happier with how my hair looked on my wedding day! Katie did an amazing job and knew exactly what I was looking. My hair complimented my dress, makeup and accessories perfectly!

Katie is the consummate professional and is incredibly talented. She did hair for my bridesmaids and me on my wedding, and was able to make everyone's hair look beautiful, while also executing a style each bridesmaid was comfortable with. She did an awesome job with my hair, too. She worked with makeup artist Alana Schmidt, and they were a great team-- a nice couple of gals to hang out with on my wedding morning!

Katie did an amazing job! I got married on a hot and swampy day at the end of June. I was concerned about everyone’s hair holding through the day especially since the forecast called for rain but everything turned out flawless! My hair and extensions looked great all day and night long! The bridesmaids were all happy with their looks and looked fabulous until the afterparty. Katie was super helpful in guiding me when it came to researching what extensions to buy. She made them look seamless and I felt like a celebrity! I highly recommend working with her on your big day! Everything she does looks so naturally beautiful!

Katie was so fabulous to work with from my inquiry email all the way up to the wedding day. My hair looked amazing! It was exactly what I envisioned and more! I don't think a single piece of hair fell out of place as we danced all night. Katie was so sweet and professional. All of my wedding party were so happy with how their hair came out. Katie was able to create the look each girl was looking for. I can't thank her enough for making me feel so beautiful on our wedding day! I highly recommend booking with Katie!!

Katie did my hair for my wedding this past Friday. Let me tell you now, stop what you are doing and BOOK HER NOW!!! She killed it!!! My hair has never looked so good! She created the pushed back updo look I was dreaming of. She was extremely patient and kind. I have never looked or felt more beautiful in my life. She made me look exactly how I wanted to look on my wedding day. Thank you Katie!!!

Katie was phenomenal! She was fun, super insightful and just an absolute dream. I knew my girls and I were in GREAT hands with Katie styling us. My MOH even said her hair looked better done by Katie than it did for her own wedding. Book her up and quick if you have the chance!

Katie is super talented, fast and did an amazing job on me and my whole bridal squad (including flower girls)! I loved my hair and everyone's hair looked so beautiful as well! Definitely recommend her and her team for anyone's big day! Thanks again for everything Katie! -Allison

My 8 bridesmaids, mother, mother of the groom and myself all got our hair done by Katie. She was efficient, professional and did an amazing job! I would definitely recommend her!

Katie and Alana were our hair and makeup team for my September wedding and they were total rockstars. I've never felt so pretty in my life. Katie managed to perfectly create what I was hoping for (and it held beautifully all night); and all of my girls and mums and flower girls felt the same. She's a hair genius! She was also super easy to work with, and got everyone all done and sorted in even less time than planned. Katie and Alana are a totally professional team and I honestly couldn't have chosen better.

Katie has amazing talent and everyone’s hair looked SO beautiful!!! She really listened to what everyone wanted and added some suggestions of her own. Everyone’s hair stayed perfectly styled for the 15 hours we needed it. I would 100% recommend using her to anyone and everyone I know!!!!

Katie is the actual best! Everyone’s hair looked amazing!!! We all pretty much had loose/romantic styled updos and everyone looked different but cohesive (which was what we were going for). Even my mom who has a bob and wasn’t getting an updo looked fabulous. She made sure everyone was happy and even helped my nephew out. Our hair looked fresh all night. I couldn’t recommend her more!! She’s super friendly and very professional. Thank you so much Katie!!!

Katie was recommended by my makeup artist, Alana Maria, and I felt so lucky to have such a killer team. Katie is exactly the type of person you want around on your wedding day—she's super professional at the same time as being chill and just fun to hang out with. You can tell you're in good hands with her. I absolutely LOVE the look she created for me. She also did a range of styles for my bridesmaids—up and down, textured and sleek, short and long. Everyone looked GORGEOUS and our styles lasted all day and night (even through serious dancing). All I can say is THANK YOU Katie for making me feel so gorgeous on my wedding day!

Katie was so wonderful to work with! From the hair trial, she welcomed me and my mom into her home and was incredibly attentive and easy to talk to when figuring out the best styles for each of us. I could tell immediately that she was an expert at bridal hair and felt incredibly at ease in her hands. From the trial up through the wedding day, she was super responsive and flexible. The morning of the wedding, she arrived early and fit in myself, five bridesmaids and two moms with additional time for touch ups. She worked with every girl to make sure they were happy and comfortable with their hairstyles and everyone was absolutely thrilled with the end results - she did a stunning job! Our hairstyles lasted through the night until the after-after party ended at 3am which was beyond our expectations. If you're looking for a bridal hair stylist, I'd highly recommend Katie - hiring her and Alana Schmidt, an incredibly talented makeup artist, made getting ready for our wedding a breeze!

Katie was so amazing to work with, she made me feel so comfortable from the minute we first started to speak! Then when I had my trial with her, I was so in between looks. Katie came up with the perfect hairstyle to compliment the look I was going for with my dress. It was absolutely perfect! My bridal party and mom and MIL loved their hair as well! Our hair stayed for hours and ok days too!! We did not want to wash it. It just stayed so perfectly. The hair products she uses are uber yummy as well!! Thank you again Katie!!!!

Katie did my hair for my July wedding. She was wonderful to work with and I was very happy with how my hair came out. She also did hair for my bridesmaids and mother and they were all beyond thrilled with their hair. She was able to do any hairstyle they wanted! Would highly recommend!

Katie is an amazing hair stylist. She did an incredible job with my hair on my wedding day, and it lasted all night! All of the bridesmaids and moms also loved the work she did. She was super easy to work with and very patient. Finally, the makeup artist she brought with her—Karen Luna (Beauty by Luna)—also did a phenomenal job. My makeup looked perfect the entire night. I highly recommend them both!

Katie did my hair, along with my bridesmaids and mom's for my wedding and everything looked amazing! It stayed throughout the night and she was super efficient and easy to work with. Would definitely recommend to anyone with an upcoming wedding!

Katie was recommended to me by my makeup artist and I can't wait to recommend her to everyone. From beach waves to updo's , she was impeccable and efficient, even with just looking at photos for inspo. Definitely recommend getting a trial with her because she has so many good ideas that help you solidify your look on your day. Very personable!

Katie is amazing! Not only is she a wonderful person, but her talent is incredible. She did my hair for my wedding as well as 3 bridesmaids and mom. All of us looked INCREDIBLE and the photos are simply stunning. I had a classic updo with many little pieces pinned everywhere and not once did anything fall. (that was actually one of my fears!) She was patient with my bridesmaids questions about their style and even chatted with my sister about hair coloring tips. :) If you're looking for a professional stylist for your special day, book her now before she is unavailable. Thank you, Katie!!

Katie was super responsive and communicative during the months leading up to the wedding. She asked a lot of questions and you could tell she really wanted to get a good understanding of me and my personality in order to make my wedding hair dreams come true! She was on time day of and worked quickly to get all the girls' hair done. I loved everything she helped the girls decide on, the styles really fit the girls' faces and personalities and everyone looked amazing! My hair was FABULOUS and held up till the very end of the night (despite humidity and sweating) and I got endless compliments on it. She did a phenomenal job, is super talented and I can't recommend her enough. Do yourself a favor and hire Katie for your wedding day! Thanks so much, Katie!

Katie Kelly was a dream to work with! Her professionalism, attention to detail, and calm demeanor put me right at ease on what had started as a hectic day. Her creativity and superb taste resulted in a romantic look beyond my highest expectations, and at a reasonable cost! My tough-to-please bridesmaids and mother were all thrilled with her work, particularly how perfectly she understood and executed their vision. We all looked fantastic and received numerous compliments over the course of the day. Highly recommend booking Katie ASAP for your special day!

I cannot rave enough about Katie Kelly: Hair + Make-up. From the first time I reached out to Katie she made me feel comfortable, relaxed, excited, and taken care of. Katie worked with me to identify my perfect bridal hair and then helped me readjust when my vision changed multiple times. She was easy to schedule trials with, responsive on email and text message, and helped assuage any anxiety I had leading up to the wedding. Katie's work speaks for itself, but she made everyone on the wedding day look amazing. From my long hair to my mother's short hair to my bridesmaids, she made each one of us look natural and beautiful. She listened to what everyone wanted and helped create a look for each person that made them feel beautiful. Not to mention, she is sweet, kind, and easy to get along with. She fit right in as we were all getting ready! I would hire Katie again in a heartbeat and I strongly encourage everyone to do so!

Katie was fantastic to work with! I was unable to complete a trial before due to planning from halfway across the country and she was able to give me gorgeous hair the day off! I wouldn't have changed a thing about it! She was also able to complete updos on several hair types all while staying on schedule.

Katie was an absolute pleasure to work with. I knew I wanted a really simple look but still wanted to appear elegant and put together. Katie came up with great suggestions and we landed on a super pretty up do topped with a flower crown and it was exactly what I was looking for. She did a wonderful job on my family and bridesmaids. She is so talented and passionate and that is reflected in the detailed service she provides. I could not suggest her enough. Thank you for making me feel so beautiful and for being a part of my special day :)

Katie does a fantastic job! I was so excited to work with Katie after finding her on Instagram and meeting her for the bridal hair trial. She's highly capable and very relaxing to be around - you can trust her to do a great job for the bride, the bridesmaids, the MOH, the MOB, and the flower girls! My hair lasted from 2pm-2am withstanding all the dancing, eating and hugging. Couldn't have been luckily to have found/worked with her!

Katie was punctual and professional. She was very helpful in explaining how different styles would turn out. I went for a different updo from my trial, and I absolutely loved the final look (and received a ton of compliments)! I really enjoyed working with Katie and would highly recommend her!

Katie was wonderful to work with! She was super communicative, receptive, and thorough, and brought her talent and professionalism through each step of the process from beginning to end. She made me and my girls look amazing. Each of us had a style that was very individual, from boho to glam, and each style was done with a creative eye and attention to detail. I loved my low updo with fishtail braids! I would book Katie again in a heartbeat, and recommend her wholeheartedly to any bride in the NYC area. Thank you Kelly, for your amazing work and making me and my bridal party feel so beautiful on my wedding day.

Katie was so wonderful, I'm so glad we booked her for our Catskills wedding! When I first reached out, she was helpful with answering my (many) questions and pointing me to examples of her work. When my now wife and I went to her house for our wedding preview, she was super easy to chat with and listened attentively while we each explained what we were looking for. She worked well with each of our hair -- I have fine straight hair that can't hold a curl, but Katie got it to! And my wife has super thick curly hair that Katie was able to work with and tame into a beautiful elegant look. We talked through some tweaks once we were finished, and she had great suggestions how to improve the looks on our wedding day. Leading up to the big day, we ended up having more bridesmaids who wanted their hair done than we originally thought . Katie didn't break a sweat when it came down to discussing the schedule and timing though. She arrived and got down to business and we finished *ahead* of schedule. She was also such a delight to be around and her calm and friendly attitude definitely rubbed off on everyone around. We also had a bunch of different hair types and she did an amazing job on everyone. It was such a pleasure to work with her and I'm so glad we found her!

Seriously amazing! Katie will do exactly what you show her and she will make you and all your ladies look perfect and! I could not have been happier! Highly recommended!

Katie was a true professional and kept me at ease throughout the entire wedding planning process. She was accommodating with scheduling a trial and working with a busy schedule. Our wedding day was very muggy and my hair was perfect all night long. My bridesmaids had so much fun with Katie and her style is amazing. Don't keep searching for a hair stylist and book Katie!

Katie was fabulous!!! She did my hair for my wedding, as well as my bridal party and the mother of the groom. Everyone had an idea of what they wanted and she was able to bring our vision to life. Besides nailing all of her looks she is super nice to work with, and also extremely professional. She comes totally prepared and ready to work. I would highly recommend working with her for your wedding!

Katie was so great! Everyone was happy with how their hair looked, and styles lasted through the evening. She was able to easily imitate photos provided by bridesmaids, and offer suggestions/changes to styles if she thought something would work better. I wanted each bridesmaid to wear their hair however they wanted, which meant Katie was required to do many different styles and she nailed them all! I would definitely recommend her for wedding hair!

From day 1, Katie was so effortless to work with. I had a trial with her a year before my wedding where I sat down in her chair, showed her a couple pictures of her work that I loved, and within an hour I looked in the mirror and thought it was perfect. I literally didn't have single thing worth tweaking. The day of the wedding Katie and her assistant, Tatiana, were incredibly efficient, careful and laid back. They took everyone's ideas, pictures, asks (all 11 of us) and turned them into reality- everyone's hair looked amazing. Katie has such a calming, kind presence and I was very grateful for that. It was just what I needed as "getting ready" was winding down. My hair turned out beautifully and stayed put the entire night. I will forever recommend Katie to every bride I meet!

I worked with Katie through another company for hair on my wedding so I can’t speak to how she runs things but for our trial and wedding day she was amazing! On the day of the wedding it was raining all day and I was going back and forth with if I should keep to my original style of half up and half down that I did during the trial and loved so much. She was honest and took the time to look at the weather forecast and humidity to give me an honest opinion. Because of her I stuck with my plan and I’m so happy I did. We were a two bride wedding as well and there was a lot of hair to be done. Everyone looked so great. When we finished a little early she stayed until our original end time to make sure anyone who needed a touch up got one. I hadn’t planned any hair accessories either and didn’t really care but my now wife had extras and it was Katie’s idea to use them. She kindly ran to the other room to get them and added them to my hair. They really added a nice touch and I was glad she did that. She is awesome at hair and I highly recommend her!

Katie was AMAZING. Her patience with my mom and mother in law in the planning phase was one for the recordbooks- but it is her work on our wedding day that really was remarkable. She did all 9 people in recording timing and every single person loved their hairstyle. She is so friendly and easy to work with- I could not have asked for a nicer, more talented person.

Katie did beyond a wonderful job on my wedding day hair! My hair is super fine and thin, and basically never holds a curl for more than an hour. I got some hair extensions to make it look fuller and help hold the curls better (Katie's suggestion). This was the best thing I could have done. My hair stayed in place and beautifully curly the WHOLE day!! At 1AM, my hair looked just as great as it did at 10AM, which is AMAZING. The same went for my bridesmaids. I know some of them even asked Katie to change up their style a few times the morning of the wedding, and Katie accommodated everyone and I really appreciated it. We had to start getting ready super early in the morning and Katie had no problem working within our time limits for over 12 girls!! Thank you so much for everything that you did. I could not have asked for anything better for my wedding day hairstyle. I wish I could have Katie do my hair every day! I would highly, highly recommend Katie to anyone who needs their hair styled for an event. She's great at what she does and really seems to enjoy doing it.

Katie is just the best!!! I was so happy with how my hair turned out the day of my wedding, and it stayed gorgeous throughout the entire party. My bridal party was also extremely happy with how she recreated exactly what the gals had picked out from all their Pinterest stalking. Best of all, my very hard to please mom was over the moon with how her hair turned out. Katie's energy kept me calm and smiling throughout the morning. I can't recommend her highly enough!!

Katie was fantastic! She did my hair and makeup plus hair for my mom and four bridesmaids. She completely understood what I wanted and everyone was so happy with the results. It looked as amazing in person as it did in photos and held up all day and night. And the whole process was very easy, communicating with Katie from a year before my wedding through to the trial and the big day.

I first met Katie when I had my hair trial back in March. I showed her a bunch of printed out pictures of what i wanted, she looked at them, and began working on my hair. The finished product was absolutely stunning and exactly what I had pictured my hair to look like on my wedding day. I was in love with my hair, and couldn’t wait to get it done on the big day! Katie Kelly did an amazing job on me and my bridesmaids hair for my wedding. We had a super early start, and Katie was there bright and early and ready to work. There was 9 of us in total getting our hair done that day, and Katie was so patient with each and every one of us. I cannot even begin to describe how amazing my bridal party, mom, and mother-in law’s hair looked that day. Everyone loved their hair, and could not stop talking about how great of a job Katie did. My hair turned out exactly how I wanted it! I seriously felt like the most beautiful bride that day! My hair lasted throughout the whole day and evening! Katie was such a pleasure to work with! She is an amazingly talented hair stylist, and I am so happy I chose her to do my hair on one of the biggest days of my life!

Katie did such an amazing job on my hair as well as my bridal party and my mom and MIL. She was patient and helpful when it came to suggesting what might work for all of us and I received SO many compliments on my style. She truly made me feel glamourous and captured that old Hollywood feel I was going for! Thank you Katie!!!

Katie was a dream to work with for my wedding back in May. We were a large group - myself, 7 bridesmaids, a few sister-in-laws, MOB and MIL - and Katie managed to execute perfect looks on each and every one of us...and on schedule! Everyone looked beautiful, polished, and not overly hairsprayed. My look was perfection and lasted all day AND all night. I would highly recommend Katie to another bride and bridal party in a heartbeat!

Katie did my hair at my early summer courthouse wedding in May 2016. She was perfect from beginning to end, and perfectly translated my inspiration images into a day-of look that was special but still totally me!

Katie and Alana were amazing!!! I found Katie last minute and she came through. What an amazing pair- they work so well together, very efficiently, and do an amazing job. They'll listen to your requests, but they also very much know what they're doing. So glad I found them. I recommend them to ANYONE. So many compliments on my hair and makeup :) perfection.

Katie was wonderful to work with! She accommodated my large bridal party, all with different types of hair, and everyone looked beautiful! We were ready ahead of schedule even with adding a few extra people to list. I would definitely recommend her, she's sweet, calm and very talented. Thanks Katie!!
