Ky was amazing!!! She did hair for each of my bridesmaids and they all looked beautiful. She did hair and make-up for both my mom and I and it was perfect. She is super friendly and made the entire experience fun. My make-up lasted all day and didn't rub off on my new hubby or guests. I highly recommend Ky.

Ky was able to help me achieve a personalized hairstyle for my wedding day that suited the entire day: my dress, my venue, my personality. Not only did she succeed at that, but she helped make my bridesmaids and mom feel and look beautiful without a prior consultation. I was really impressed with Ky's ability to just "get" what we were each trying to achieve with our hair for the big day. I whole-heartedly recommend Ky!

Loved my hair! Ky did an excellent job with my hair and my matron of honors hair. We were both very happy with the way it turned out. I loved my hair at the trial and knew right then I wanted to have Ky style my hair for my wedding. She is very friendly and was a lot of fun to work with. I would highly recommend Ky!

Ky (owner of Richie Hair & Makeup) was fantastic. While she does both Hair and Makeup, I hired her only for hair since a friend of mine also did makeup. Ky worked very well with my Makeup artist as well. There was a great transition between the two of them on the wedding day; until my entire party was glammed out! But to back up a moment, I had a great hair trial with Ky. She provided a full consultation and let me know how to treat my hair prior to the wedding. I told her that I would like extensions as well and since it was my very first time with extensions, she made herself available to assist with that as well (which was very helpful). I was confident that she would do a great job at the wedding. The wedding came and of course, I decide last minute to change my (the bride's) hairstyle. However, Ky didn't even skip a beat. The new design was flawlessly executed (gorgeous!!!!), as were the styles of the flower girl and the 6 other attendants. Ky is extremely talented! She is professional and she loves what she does. It shows in her work! Finally, her rates are comparable in the industry. I would hire her again in the future; all I need is the next event!

Ky's special touches were the icing on the cake. She made my wedding a better experience by being understanding and helping me calm my pre-wedding jitters. Her attention to detail is amazing

Ky was wonderful. The day of the wedding so did myself and 3 of my bridesmaids. I have to say, she transformed me and the girls. My hair and makeup was gorgeous and I couldn't have asked her to do a better job. She strives to make sure that you love your look and she never rushed to get done. I will certainly use her again if I need my hair and makeup done for anything.

Ky did an amazing job. I liked her professionalism and creative ideas. She ensured that she listened and found a style that worked for me. On the wedding day my style held up all day and looked superb.

Ky was great! She was funny and made me and my bridesmaids look fabulous on my wedding day. She did one test run with me, another run for my bridal portraits, and then the actual day. She was great! After seeing my bridal portraits I decided I wanted a softer look, and she was able to make it happen. My pictures from my wedding day turned out great! My maid of honor was being so picky about her hair. She came unprepared with no pictures or any idea of what she wanted. Ky was very professional and offered some ideas. I got married outside on a summer evening. Ky offered suggestions for my bridesmaids that would allow for a nice look that would hold the summer humidity. Both my mom and mother in law have short hair, but she was able to style their hair and still make them look elegant for the big day. She was able to work with all hair types, long, short, curly, wavy, etc. I was very satisfied with her work and would definitely recommend her.

As a wedding planner, I had worked with Ky on quite a few of my other weddings. I had seen, first hand, the works of art that she can create with someone's hair. Honestly, it is almost like she is molding clay once she gets an idea of the hairstyle. As a non-traditional bride, I knew that Ky was the PERFECT choice for my wedding day hair style. I gave her a picture and asked her to duplicate it. Instead, she deconstructed the hairstyle, used the main aspects that I like and made it BETTER by adding touches which complimented my personality. Wedding photos are something that are only take once, are shared throughout generations and last a lifetime!! I am beyond thrilled with the way my hair turned out and couldn't have asked for more!!!

I'm so glad I went with Ky. She is fun, sweet, and most importantly incredibly talented! Ky and her assistant made me, my seven bridesmaids, my junior bridesmaid, and my mom look like superstars. I absolutely recommend Ky to anyone.

Ky was wonderful! Very helpful at the trial, and she truly outdid herself the day of the wedding! Everyone said how great my makeup was and how beautifully done/yet not overdone it looked. I would recommend Ky in a heartbeat!

Ky was excellent on my wedding day, she was very professional and quite lovely at helping me stay calm, she worked quickly and effectively on my bridesmaids hair as well as my hair. She was very helpful at choosing my wedding hair during the trial.

Having taken the Bar Exam one month before getting married I was in a bind, unsure if any stylists would be available, let alone good ones. I called on Ky a week and a half before my wedding. All I had to do was describe what I wanted and show her my veil - Ky worked her magic and it came out beautiful. I was so relieved - Ky saved me from the age old plague of having to test an unending number of stylists before finally compromising. On top of being amazingly talented and just all-around enjoyable, Ky was extremely professional. Ky drove into the city and showed up at 6 in the morning to squeeze us in before a wedding she had planned months before. She did my bridesmaids' hair without even a trial and they were all so beautiful and happy. More importantly, she did my mother-in-law, who was also quite beautiful and pleased. All this without ever seeing or speaking with any of them before. Ky truly made my wedding day special - I know it could not have been as beautiful with any other stylist and I know that when I receive compliments, they are real and honest because we all looked so beautiful

Ky did my hair and makeup for my wedding. She made me look stunning. I was a little worried after the trial but Ky was always there to calm my nerves and offer suggestions. She has a great personality and is very reliable. I would definitely use her again if I had to do it all over.

Ky was amazing in helping me trouble shoot alternatives to extensions for my desired updo hair style. I cannot tell you how skilled she is-we went from concept to two possible styles. I was in awe of her work and she did a GREAT job. I felt my look was complete and I got lots of compliments. THANK YOU!! Run don't walk to book your style with Ky. You won't regret it.
