    Creativity and expertise at its finest!

    I can’t say enough wonderful things about her! She is incredibly talented at both hair and makeup, but what I appreciate most is how much she truly listens to me and cares about what I want. She takes the time to understand my vision and makes sure I feel heard, while also bringing her own creativity and expertise to make everything even better than I imagined. I always feel comfortable trusting her because she knows how to balance what I’m asking for with what she knows will look best. She is creative, professional, and genuinely cares about making her clients feel beautiful and confident. I absolutely love working with her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who can bring their vision to life!

    Simply incredible

    Working with ChicArtiste has been an absolute game-changer for our events. Kristen is a true professional who listens intently to what you want and then executes flawlessly—she walked me through her entire process and offered smart scheduling suggestions that kept everything running smoothly on the day-of. What sets her apart is the collaborative approach; she didn't just apply makeup, she genuinely partnered with me to create a look that felt authentically mine. The results speak for themselves—meticulous, beautiful, and completely unique. I've booked her services multiple times because every time I leave her chair feeling confident and gorgeous, knowing the look will hold up beautifully from ceremony through celebration. Kristen has a rare gift for making clients feel seen and celebrated, and I'd recommend her to any couple looking for someone who truly cares about making them feel their best.

    Calm and Knowledgeable Hair and Make-up Artist

    Kristen was absolutely amazing from start to finish! She made me feel so comfortable and truly listened to what I wanted for both my hair and makeup, while still offering her professional advice to make everything come together perfectly. My hair and makeup lasted beautifully throughout the entire day, and I received so many compliments. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend Chic Artiste to any bride looking for someone talented, genuine, and dependable!

    There are multiple make up artists to choose from but I can reassure you that Kristin is the very best. She is talented, professional and I wish she was still in New York because I have not found anyone who can compete with her artistry!
