Superstar hair and makeup artist!

Kay was my hair and makeup artist for my wedding and I can’t recommend her enough. She is so professional and amazing at her work that my mom wanted to use her too after seeing my trial look! My stunning makeup and updo stayed flawless from morning until the evening, even after crying several times throughout the day. She helped me secure my veil and change out hair accessories at the venue. The most important part is that she truly listens to the needs of the bride and creates a look that highlights your features. Thank you Kay for everything!!!

Friendly, amazing, and talented!

Kay did my hair and make-up for my engagement photos. She is indeed a professional. Due to COVID and time constraints, I had no time to book a trial. However, she was able to create the natural look that I was going for after showing her some picture references. I do not style my hair or wear make-up so I was asking for opinions about my choices. She is very responsive and and flexible. She was also very understanding when I tested positive for COVID and messaged her only two days before the scheduled date and requested to reschedule. I'm so grateful to her and she's one of the keys to looking beautiful on your special day (unfortunately she'll be busy on my wedding day). Definitely book her early if you wish to secure her and the magic she can do with your hair and make-up.

Kay is amazing!

Kay is an extremely talented hair and make up artist. Her work is exceptional. I see her regularly for hair cut and colour at Civello Granville. When I got engaged, I didn't have to think twice about who to book for my special day. She helped me feel so beautiful.

Excellent Make up and Hair Artist

I had the pleasure of working with Kay for both my engagement and wedding. She is very punctual and left enough time for make up and hair so I was able to relax throughout the process. She is a talented artist that is able to create a look that is unique to me. Kay is a talented artist if you pick her you are in good hands !

I already referred Kay to my friends!

Kay did an amazing HMU for me, both of moms and my MOH. My schedule was constantly changing so I couldn’t book my HMU trial till the very last minute. Kay was super patient and helpful with scheduling, she did her best to accommodate me and my fiancé’s schedule. All of us loved our HMU and I already referred Kay to my friends who are getting married! :)

Makeup and Hair stylist

Hi! I’m Kay. I am a makeup and hair stylist. I have been doing hair and makeup for 8 years at hairsalon. Currently I started my wedding business and working as freelance makeup and hair stylist. I completed my makeup program 8 years ago from Blanche Macdonald Institute and graduated Aveda Institute hairschool.

I started as an assistant at Aveda Tonic (now known as Civello) and have been working as a full-time makeup and hair stylist since 2014. My favourite type of work is doing wedding and photoshoots where the makeup and hair really help portray the beauty of my clients.

I am proud to be a makeup and hair artist and the most rewarding part of my work is to help my clients accomplish their desired look. Need makeup or hair consultation to get the look that you deserve? I’d love to hear your story!
