Incredibly Talented Hair and Make-up Artist

I don’t even know where to begin with how amazingly talented Khara is! When choosing someone for hair and make-up for my wedding day, I was honestly very nervous, because I have been in weddings and haven’t had the most wonderful experiences, but with Khara, this was NOT the case. From the moment I walked into the salon for my trial, I knew I made the right choice. Khara put me right at ease by just listening to my vision for the wedding day and discussing what would look best. Khara did exactly what I wanted and made sure I had pictures, so I could think about changes I’d possibly want. After the trial, hair and make-up were hardly a thought until the wedding day, because I knew I was in good hands. On the wedding day, both Khara and her sister were so wonderful to work with. Their calm personalities will put you right at ease on your special day. Each and every one of my girls had perfect hair and beautiful make-up. As each girl finished getting their hair done, we all just so impressed with how amazing it looked! For my hair, I did request a couple of adjustments, and Khara made it even more perfect than I could have imagined. My make-up was just what I wanted, enough to show I had make-up on, but still very natural. If you are looking to wear fake eyelashes, Khara will make it seem like they all natural!! All of our hair stayed completely perfect all day. One of my bridesmaids even slept in her hair and when she woke up, it still looked beautiful! Khara is a truly a talented hair and make-up artist and I would highly recommend her for anyone’s special day!

The GREATEST in the business!

Khara is an absolute breath of fresh air. She is witty, calm, and so talented. She did such an incredible job on my own and my bridal party's hair/makeup. Everyone looked BREATHTAKING! On what is normally a very stressful day, her relaxed demeanor made everyone feel at ease. She is an expert at color palettes and kept all of our looks true to our personalities! I am so grateful for her and wish we could relive the day over again! Thank you, Khara!!!

So Wonderful!

One of the things I had the most trouble finding and deciding on when planning for my wedding was my makeup and hairstylist for the day, and I am SO glad I found Khara on Wedding Wire! Working with her was such a wonderful experience; not only does she do beautiful hair and makeup, but she is also so kind, gentle, and genuine. She made me feel beautiful throughout the whole process, not just when my makeup and hair was done! My family, bridesmaids, and I all thoroughly enjoyed working with both her and her sister. I've attached pictures from both my hair/makeup trial, as well as the day of my wedding! Thank you Khara for helping to make my big day so special! :-)
