Deya is the best! I have thick hair and I was worried about if KMB Studio didn’t have texturizing shears, but thank goodness I asked! They have shears to help thin your thick hair out if you don’t want to deal with a puffy lion’s mane especially with Chicago’s humidity lol! 🦁😜 and the conditioning mask made my hair feel soft and less frizzy! Thank you so much Deya 🩷

Kayla did my hair and makeup for my wedding day, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! Despite not doing a trial run, she took me on her day off and created the most beautiful bridal look. I have thick, curly hair, which not everyone can handle, but Kayla's experience with my hair type truly showed—she did an amazing job. She was so reassuring and made me feel confident in my decision to have her glam me up for my big day. I absolutely loved my bridal look—it was literally perfection!

Sima is truly in a league of her own! After a disastrous experience with another artist while traveling, I came to Sima to fix the damage, and she did not disappoint. She is a true master of her craft. Beyond her incredible talent, her warm personality makes every appointment a joy. I’ve officially learned my lesson: no one else is touching my lashes or brows again. I’ve already secured my 3-week refill to make sure I’m always taken care of!

Viktoria (Vika) was so talented, thoughtful, gentle - a real joy to work with. The space is quiet and clean, and she was careful to talk through every part of the experience, giving me lots of time to think through ideas and make sure I wound up with a tattoo that was meaningful and matched my vision.

I booked Kayla for my graduation hair and makeup, and as always, she did an incredible job! My grad photos turned out flawless, thanks to her expertise. One thing about Kayla—she will make it happen. I booked her on short notice, and she still found a way to fit me in. That's what I love about her; she's incredibly accommodating and always puts her clients first. Kayla truly listens to your vision and brings it to life with her exceptional talent. On top of that, she's funny, down-to-earth, and always makes sure you leave feeling better than ever. I couldn't recommend her more!

Just had my 6 week touch up nanobrows with Sima. I have had my eyebrows microbladed a few times before but nothing has compared to the nanobrows Sima has done. She took her time and was extremely precise, overall did an excellent job and my eyebrows have never looked better.

Tatti was so patient and had amazing attention to detail. I love how she took the time to make sure what she designed was exactly what you envisioned and even made sure the design followed the curves of your body. Thank you!

From start to finish, the experience is exceptional. Maral is professional, knowledgeable, and truly an artist at what she does. My lashes are customized perfectly to my eye shape and lifestyle, and the retention is incredible. If you’re looking for high-quality lash work, Maral @ Lash Design is the best !

Everyone was sweet angels very encouraging. There was one client that was very mean,though I smiled at her she just looked mean and frowned her nose up also, covered her nose like something stink when I came in. However, the stylists and everyone else was God-fearing women of God who knew how to treat people. Thank you all so much for making me feel confident we laughed and we talked I appreciate you ladies! I will definitely come back again!

Karina Ponomarenko is the absolute BEST!!! I recently moved to Chicago and was nervous to try someone new, but I have had the most amazing experience. Karina is so kind, flexible with scheduling, and easy to reach out to. I DM her on Instagram and the appointment is booked within minutes. Her new salon is beautiful with a great location, as well. I definitely recommend Karina and will continue going back to her for all my hair needs :)
