    Exceptional!

    Christy and Stephanie did an amazing job with making myself and my bridesmaids and mothers feel so beautiful. From the makeup trial to my actual day, the experience was amazing. They were able to deliver exactly what I wanted and were able to pay attention to all the details for our makeup and hair. The atmosphere was comfortable and their attentiveness was exceptional. If you need a makeup artist and hair stylist for your special day, do not look any farther, Christy and Stephanie are the best duo and work seamlessly together to make you feel the most beautiful.

    Loved Christy K Makeup

    Christy and her team did hair and makeup for my Woodinville wedding in August for me and my wedding party. She was highly recommended by my wedding planner, and I absolutely loved working with her and her team. Being someone of Asian descent, it was important for me to find someone who could understand how to enhance my features while keeping the makeup natural and clean. She was also very professional and provided great tips on skin and hair care for the months leading up to the wedding. She had lots of experience with the venue and adjusted the makeup accordingly to fit the lighting of the space. She also provided a makeup kit for touching up throughout the evening which was very helpful. Communication was excellent. I would recommend Christy K for any special event.

    Christy and her team are highly skilled! Highly recommend them

    Christy is a very skilled artist and a true professional! I used her makeup and hair services for my wedding day, as did one of my bridesmaids. I felt really beautiful on the big day. I was impressed with how natural and long-lasting the makeup was. My makeup stayed put--it didn't cake, and I didn't have to touch it up during the wedding--even though it was a warm and humid summer day. My makeup photographed well. Christy tailors her makeup approach to her client's vision and the realities of their skin type and the environment. I highly recommend her!!!

    Still in Awe

    Even though it has been almost six months, I still cannot get over how beautiful I felt on my wedding day, thanks to Christy and her team. From the very beginning, Christy was prompt in her responses and helped me navigate the complexities of building a wedding timeline. She was so helpful and patient in answering my questions about the process. Her skincare prep tips were thoughtfully built from her years of experience as a makeup artist, backed by extensive research from consulting her esthetician colleagues. This is what I loved about working with Christy because she prioritized the health of the skin first. As a result, I felt so confident and comfortable under the natural makeup she applied to enhance my features. I admire Christy’s craft and ability to make it look effortless to create a natural makeup look, but that’s only because she’s incredibly experienced and talented at what she does. Somehow, I’ve come to appreciate her talent more and more, long after the wedding day. Not only did she curate the most pampering experience for me, she also helped my mother-in-law and my mother feel their most beautiful and confident selves. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, Christy and your team!

    So professional. You will be in good hands.

    If you are asian and have a hard time finding makeup artists that can make you look good, Christy has you covered. I don't usually wear makeup but Christy made sure I looked amazing on my special day. I was very happy with what I saw in the mirror.

    Amazing job on makeup and hair

    Christy did an amazing job on my makeup and hair for both our engagement and our wedding. Her makeup is natural, light, great in person and on photos. She will even adjust the amount of makeup based on the lighting of the venue. I already recommended her to many of my friends.

    Thanks to Christy + Team!

    I first heard about Christy through my friend who got married a couple years before me. Christy did such an amazing job on her and I made a mental note at that time that I had to book Christy when it came time for my wedding. When I reached out to her earlier this year, she was fully booked to my disappointment (not surprising, because she is so heavily sought after!) However, with a stroke of luck, I reached out again last minute a month before my wedding, and she was free! Because of changes due to COVID, there were a lot of things I was stressed out about, but my wedding day turned out to be such a special and memorable event. Thanks to Christy + her team, I felt beautiful and confident on the big day. I had my hair + makeup done, and my bridesmaids had their makeup done. Christy has such a talent in doing natural asian looks (nothing overly heavy where you don't feel like yourself anymore) and her team took extra cleanliness measures in regards to COVID this year. They were very clean and professional as well! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a quality makeup artist!

    Brides, no need to look farther. Book Christy!!!

    Christy is amazing! For any brides browsing the web right now looking for a make up artist, I would highly recommend Christy and her team. They did hair and make up for myself and the moms and honestly looking at the pictures I can't believe it still looked so good after all the tears/sweat. Because our wedding was in July, I was sweating and honestly cried through most of my speeches and my make up still looked amazing at the end of the night for the last pictures we took. The experience from beginning to end was great! Also my mother in law has very short hair and Stephanie prepared a clip on bun that she absolutely loved! She was sad about her short hair and we didn't even request/think about a clip on bun being a solution so she was extremely happy.

    Wedding Hair & Makeup

    I hired Christy to do hair and makeup for my wedding, and she was so easy to work with. From scheduling her for the first wedding date, and then rescheduling for our delayed wedding date, Christy was extremely understanding and accommodating. The most important thing for me when selecting a hair and makeup artist was to find someone who understands Asian features, and Asian hair. Because anyone who has those understands that they do not pair well with just any type of makeup. Bring out all of the waterproof liners and mascaras, and loads of hairspray. I’m so happy to report that my hair and makeup stayed all day and all night! And the makeup was done beautifully, and perfectly enhanced my features, without covering up how I really look. Thank you Christy for your wonderful work. If anyone is looking for a hair and makeup artist, hire Christy. She’s so professional, on time, and efficient.

    Great service and excellent natural make up

    Christy was my makeup artist for two of my engagement photoshoots. She helped me achieve a natural, glowing look that looked pretty yet effortless. I was really happy with how they turned out and highly recommend booking with Christy!

    A+ hair and makeup service

    It was great working with Christy for my wedding hair and makeup! Having gotten my makeup professionally done before as a bridesmaid, I knew that I didn't want heavy super glam make up that made me look and feel like someone else. I wanted something that would still feel like me but ~elevated~ and she definitely achieved that! The look she created was beautiful and also survived rivers of my happy wedding day tears. I also appreciated that she was very conscious of covid precautions! I would definitely recommend Christy to my friends

    Fabulously Talented!

    Christy was such a joy to work with! She is sooo talented, I truly felt like a princess when she was done with me.She did BOTH my hair and makeup. Give her a picture or tell her the idea of what you want and she is able to make it happen! I asked her to make an updo for my wedding bridal photoshoot and to make it in a way that I could easily put it half down for when we do family photos after and she was able to do it! She even let me borrow a pair of earrings since I forgot mine with my wedding attire. She is so wonderful! HIGHLY recommended!

    Soft, feminine, natural-looking markup

    For my wedding, I knew I have to find an Asian artist. I've heard many sad stories from my Asian friends who made the mistake of hiring mainstream artists for their big day - the main style tends to be too heavy for Asians' liking - too much eye shadow, too much contour, too much highlight, and worst of all, the fake eyelash is like a wall of brushes. It may look good from far away, but the close up is too dramatic, as if we are no longer ourselves. I was looking for feminine, soft, and natural looking makeup that amplifies one's beauty but still stays true to oneself. I'm so glad I found Christy - she understood and executed exactly what I was looking for! The makeup was beautiful yet natural looking (the eyelash she uses is from Taiwan, not like a heavy brush, but delicate lashes). It also does not smear easily. I had my makeup in the morning - my elopement included several hours of photo shoot, by the time we got home, it was 7pm but it did not smear at all. Not even the eye shadow. It stayed for the whole day! Christy did a groom touch up with my husband too - covering a minor birthmark on one side of his face and styled his hair.

    Aside from her work, Christy is also a warn and agreeable person. The first time I met her was for my makeup trial. We met at her house. To be honest, I was a bit insecure when I rang the doorbell. I'm entering someone's home and would be sitting face to face for an hour - what type of person would she be, would she be warm, welcoming, or cold, quiet? Would it be an awkward hour? it turned out Christy was quite easy going, she talked softly too. The vibe around her eased me quickly.

    I'll definitely come back to Christy for future events / photo sessions. Can't wait to work with her again!!

    Professional, attentive, and very good at communication

    Finding an Asian hair and makeup artist is hard in the Seattle area. I could not find a more established/ professional hair/makeup artist than Christy K. We had a trial session of makeup that made me book. She is very attentive and detail oriented. She gave me a list of beauty routine to follow and suggested several products that helped my skin/hair be at the best condition on the wedding day. She drove (she can drive ~30 miles of distance from Seattle area without charge - which is a huge plus) to my AirBNB and did makeup/hair for me and our moms. The process was very smooth, efficient- and we were done ~ 1 hr before our proposed time. Sweet (better than being late)! I loved working with her and I heard many compliments on the wedding day. Highly recommended!

    Would choose her again!

    Definitely would recommend Christy for wedding day hair and makeup! I was looking for a makeup artist that would be familiar with makeup for asian complexions - she has the experience and training to excel in this area. I explained to Christy the type of makeup/hair I was going for and she did it better than I expected. I had a group of 9 people getting hair and makeup done and her team of 4 finished everyone earlier than the estimated time. Very happy and satisfied with her services! :)

    My skin has never looked so glowy!

    Christy K did a wonderful job on my makeup and hair for our wedding photo session! When searching for a hair and makeup artist, I really wanted someone who is experienced with Asian features. My hair is very fine and does not hold curls well and Christy was able to make the curls tighter so they loosen throughout the day. I also have extremely oily and acne-prone skin. She has the right products for any skin or hair type. In my case, she used primer and extra setting spray. Afterwards my skin looked so glowy! I've never knew my skin could look so bright and luminescent in different angles and lighting. Her makeup style highlights the natural beauty and looks light and refreshing. Christy was an absolute joy to work! I had my hair and makeup done at her house and it was a very pleasant experience. She was very gentle and easy going. I felted that I was listened to and well taken care of. Highly recommend Christy to make any bride feel beautiful on their big day!

    Excellent makeup/hair artist!!

    I heard about Christy from couple friends before I reached her. With her many years of experiences and knowledge, I am very comfortable to let her touch my face and decide the best look for me. Christy is a talented makeup artist; she is so sweet and easy to work with. I prefer natural look and Christy did exactly what I want. Her make up is very natural but looks beautiful, glowing and long lasting!!!

    Also, Christy arrived on time and was prepared. I would definitely recommend Christy for 2020 Brides!!!

    Highly recommended!

    I used Christy for my bridal and bridesmaids hair/makeup and would highly recommend her! Christy is easy to work with, flexible and responsive.

    I was able to schedule a trial make-up run, and Christy took the time to learn about my skin type, personal style and the look I was going for.

    On my wedding day, Christy and her team took the same care to learn what my bridesmaids wanted and were able to create a natural look that would photograph well with beautiful hairstyles that held up for the night. All of us (5 including myself) were completed a little ahead of schedule and were very happy with how we looked!

    Amazing hair and makeup service

    I have Christy doing my wedding hair and makeup and her team for my wedding party and I love the service so much!
    1. They are great at listening to your requirements and finding a look that is suitable for you and beautiful on pictures. All of my friends and family said I looked amazing and I had to give so much credit to Christy and her team for the compliments!
    2. Christy prepared me up from months before the wedding day. She had very detailed skin care advice sent to us as soon as I contacted her for the service. I did a makeup trial but I didn't change much of the style from the trial and it looked very natural and beautiful on pictures. I also had my hair dyed 2 weeks before as she suggested.
    3. Very stable look on the day and flexible services. I told myself not to cry too much on the wedding day to stay pretty but I still did:( but the makeup still look great at the end of the day and I got to be true to my emotions on my wedding at the same time! They are also very flexible and accommodating with some situations I had such as me being late for 15 minutes (sorry!) and my mother-in-law did her makeup already while my mother wanted to do her hair etc.. I have to thank Christy and her team so much for making my wedding day worry-free!

    My bridesmaids also loved the hair and makeup her team did. The look was very beautiful yet true to themselves! I would definitely recommend Christy for all wedding makeup and hair services!

    Excellent quality work and fast paced

    Christy and her team were amazing for my wedding. A very important part of the wedding was my bridesmaids individuality and I really feel like they cared and they definitely delivered in quality. I have been in a few weddings were everyone's makeup was very cookie-cutter, and I understand making the bride feel special because I was a bride myself and I wanted to feel special. But everyone had what they wanted and looked spectacular and I still felt beautiful. I highly recommend Christy to do wedding makeup!

    Christy is an amazing makeup artist. Everyone praised about how beautiful my makeup and hair were, and I did not have to do any touch ups the entire night! Christy was super responsive, easy to communicate with, and super punctual. Highly recommend!

    great experience!

    Christy was very nice to work with! She was very responsive in both emails and texts and was very professional, easy going as well. Being Korean-American, it is hard to find a good wedding makeup artist geared toward younger brides and I was so glad I was able to find her. I would definitely recommend her!
