About Styling with Jena

Styling with Jena

Owner

Hi! My name is Jena, a hair and makeup artist based in San Diego, California and Napier, New Zealand. Managing my time between these two locations, I've recently established a skilled team to support my services while I’m away. Each stylist has been personally chosen to align with my style - specializing in timeless and romantic hairstyles with textured twists and braids or a classic updo. My makeup services offer both traditional and airbrush options with complimentary lashes and high-end professional products for a long-lasting, flawless finish. This ensures you maintain your best look throughout the entire day!

As a perfectionist, I ensure every level of detail is considered at every step of the styling process. My intention is to create an unforgettable experience for you and to ensure you feel and look your best on your special day. I take great pride in crafting a premium and luxurious hair and makeup kit, dedicated to each of my client’s hair and makeup goals. When booking a service with me, you’ll have unlimited phone and/or email communication from the day you book, leading up to your wedding day. I’ll work on carefully curating your timeline to ensure your day runs as smoothly as possible.

    I had such a wonderful experience working with Jena as my hair and makeup artist. I did a trial with her a couple of months before the wedding, and she was incredibly patient, attentive, and truly listened to all of my hair and makeup preferences. I ended up making several changes to both my hair and makeup throughout the process, and she was always patient, supportive, and never made me feel like a burden in any way. She was also very responsive and clear in her communication, which made the entire experience feel smooth and stress-free. I was nervous about my hair because it is very thick and coarse, but Jena was so reassuring and knowledgeable. She gave me helpful guidance on how to prep both my hair and skin ahead of time to ensure everything went seamlessly on the wedding day. On the day of, my makeup stayed flawless through many emotional moments, and it never felt cakey or heavy. As someone with acne-prone, sensitive skin, I really appreciated how diligent she was about keeping her brushes clean and disinfected between each service. My hair stayed perfectly up all night! My bridesmaids, mom, and mother-in-law also had their hair and makeup done and were all extremely happy with their results — both from Jena and her assistant stylist. I would absolutely recommend Styling with Jena to any bride who wants to enhance their natural features and feel like the best version of themselves. What she does looks effortless, which truly speaks to the level of skill and technique she brings to her work!!

Jena knew exactly how to make me look and feel perfect - she has a true talent for her craft. She made the entire process effortless and I felt absolutely gorgeous on my wedding day thanks to her skilled work.

    I had such an amazing experience with Jena and her team for our wedding hair and makeup! From start to finish, Jena was incredibly responsive, organized, and made the entire process feel seamless and stress-free. Her communication was quick, friendly, and thoughtful—and she even followed up after the wedding to check in. Celeste did my makeup trial and wedding day look, and she absolutely nailed it. My makeup lasted all night through dancing and sweating. She also did my hair, which held up perfectly all night. We had two other artists for our moms and sisters, and everyone looked absolutely beautiful. The whole team was professional, kind, and incredibly talented. I highly recommend Jena and her team—they were everything I hoped for and more!
