While you’re here, why not get know me a little more

Hey there Gorgeous!
My name is Kathylee Valdez (I also just go by Kat) , I am a Chicana, fulfilling my dream of helping others feel good, inside and out.
-
I am passionate about creating YOUR desired look on your special day. I've created several bridal looks that enhance one’s natural beauty and confidence.
-
I look forward to giving you the glamorous look you’ve always wanted for your memorable day.
-
When I'm not styling hair or doing makeup, I'm working with youth as a therapist.
-
And when I'm not doing either, I love watching crime shows and documentaries, being mesmerized by sunsets, soothing my soul with a cup of cafe con pan dulce, and doing a little shopping at local small owned businesses.

Kat is very accommodating, as an indecisive bride, I made a last minute change of how i wanted my make up and my hair to look, yet she did her magic.
And made it all happen.
Love her!

I highly recommend Kat for wedding hair/makeup! Both my makeup and hair was able to withstand a long day during a heatwave! She not only did an amazing job, but truly connected with each person young and old who sat in her chair on my wedding day! She was highly professional, organized, and thoughtful throughout the entire process starting many months before the wedding.

Hands down the most professional and well thought out vendor of our wedding. Trial was amazing, Kat made me feel comfortable and worked with me to figure out exactly what I wanted. Strong communication on prep, timeline, expectations, everything!!! Brought great vibes and made the hectic morning fun and exciting. -Hidy

Kat was wonderful! From our first call to the day of my wedding, Kat made me feel comfortable and confident. Kat was accommodating, kind, and skilled. Kat did all of our hair absolutely perfectly, but even more importantly, she made us feel so beautiful and taken care of!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND Kat for all your event glam needs!! I booked her for bridal hair and makeup services for myself, my mother and sister and we all had an amazing experience with her; and we all could not be more ecstatic about the results! The hair and makeup stayed put allll day and photographed beautifully, Kat is a master at this craft. Not only were the results excellent, but she was such a pleasure to work with overall. Professional, communicative, and super friendly - it was like talking to someone I’ve known for years. My mom/sister/I all have alopecia to some degree but she was incredibly accommodating about it and we felt comfortable with her throughout the whole process. Thank you, Kat! -Kristianne

I booked my bridal hair with Kat and I am so glad that I did. Kat is so sweet, caring, and funny. She always made sure that I felt good about the look, which as a client made me feel good that she cared about what I had to say. Overall, she made me feel so beautiful for my wedding, it left my hubby in awe! Thank you Kat for everything! 🤍
