BRIDAL HAIR + MAKEUP

Stefanie Fritz XO x Kay Hairstylist

Booking top-tier hair and makeup on the same date is harder than anyone warns you about. We were two of Wine Country's most sought-after artists — separately. Which meant brides who wanted both of us were constantly playing calendar roulette, hoping the stars aligned.

So we changed that.

When you book us (@kayy.hairstylist), you know exactly what you are getting — two seasoned independent artists who have worked alongside each other for years, now available to book as a team with all the ease of a single package.

One unified preview, one seamless timeline, and zero guesswork on your end. Two artists who already trust each other completely so your morning runs smoothly and your glam is exactly what you envisioned.

Your dream team is officially lockable. 🤍

BRIDAL MAKEUP

My goal is simple — the most elevated, beautiful version of you. Confident. Timeless. Makeup that lasts through every happy tear, every hug, and hours of celebrating into the night. Years from now you will look back at those photos and feel exactly the way you did in that moment.

With 20+ years and countless weddings behind me I have learned that my job is about so much more than makeup. I am usually the last person you see before you step into your dress. I know when you need a moment, when you need someone to make you laugh, when you need the air conditioning turned on and a snack brought over. I know what you need before you know you need it. And when it is time — I am your biggest cheerleader right before your moment.

My kit is filled with luxury, tried-and-true favorites that photograph beautifully, last all day, and still look like skin. Effortless but impactful.

I'm also known for making the moms feel just as stunning as the bride. Being over 40 myself, I know how to bring out her beauty and confidence — I want everyone who sits in my chair to feel like the most radiant version of themselves.

MAKEUP LESSON

One of my absolute favorite services — and honestly one of the most impactful things you can do for yourself.

Most people don't need a full glam routine. They need 10 to 15 minutes and the right knowledge to make those minutes count. My lessons are built entirely around you — your skin, your tools, your life — so that you walk away with a customized routine you can actually execute on your own, every single day.  I do your makeup while you watch, ask questions, and take over the brush on a few sections so you know you can do it yourself.

We cover exactly what you want to achieve, make sure you have the right products and tools for your specific needs, and practice until you feel confident doing it yourself. You leave with a personalized product list, a written order of application, and the kind of knowledge that genuinely changes how you feel getting ready every morning.

I also offer private lessons for the DIY bride who wants to do her own makeup and be photography ready.

At my studio in Santa Rosa, CA Available Wednesdays, Thursdays, and select Fridays.  This appointment is 2 hours.  I am not offering group lessons at this time. You may book with a friend and go back to back with your appointments.
