Thank you so much Karine! I love you too! You did an amazing job, and I want you to know that I truly appreciate how special you made me feel and look! You are such a wonderful, kind, and thoughtful person! I am so blessed and fortunate that you came into my life! Please keep in touch, and check out the wedding photos that JJ took of our wedding on Facebook! Even the whales showed up for our ceremony! Hope we can get together the next time we are in Maui!
Wishing you the best always,Lori
Thank YOU so much! Ya'll were great! And the hair and makeup were perfect! I have attached some pictures for you:)_Nicole

Well I was relentless, after numerous searches online, most of which almost looked identical and hopeless. I finally came across one website called Maui Wedding Network. In it featured Bridal Hair on Maui by Karine. I immediately selected the link and low and behold it not only had exquisite bridal photos, she had PAGES and PAGES of all the brides she’s styled. From before and after photos, bridal party photos, to testimonials…Karine Cumming’s portfolio was utterly filled with more than enough gallery photos to guide a
Bride-to-be in need of professional assistance.
From the moment we exchanged emails and started speaking to each other, I was sold even before we had our trial day, which was two days before the wedding. Months before the wedding, she would call me just to check up on me, asking if I needed anything else, other than hair/makeup (flowers, other vendors, rehearsal dinner, you name it, she was willing to help in any way she can). She knew everyone…the Chef at our reception (The Plantation House Restaurant) is her neighbor! Without a doubt, I placed a lot of faith in her talent and skills.
The day we finally met was trial day at her studio. One of my bridesmaids (Dawn) came with me, since she was also getting made up by Karine on the wedding day. We all immediately hit it off. I was SO thankful and relieved that Karine was super talented. Dawn and I felt like we knew her all along. And let me point out what’s different and unique about Karine…I’m sure most of you ladies have done trials elsewhere and typically are aware in that trial is just that, a trial! So it won’t look exactly what it’s supposed to on the day of, but close enough. Well this is not the case with Karine. She was very detail oriented and she made sure what I wanted both for hair and makeup were exactly what I envisioned. She was precise to the very littlest loops pinned in my hair, the shades of shadows used on my eye lids, to the fresh gardenia from her own garden used as an accessory on my hair. We were wowed by her meticulousness…even more so, by how much she made us feel at home!
On the wedding day, Karine and Cherie (one of her talented artists) came to my hotel room, ready to prim myself, both moms of the bride and groom, and three bridesmaids. They made the process seamless and effortless, and most importantly, kept everyone calm and on time.
Karine was one of the most caring vendors I’ve ever worked with, hands down! Even after styling everyone, she was taking pictures and was so proud of me, like a sister would be. Karine’s truly a genuine person. I’m blessed that I’ve made a new friend in the process.
Mahalo for your awesome spirit and for making me feel beautiful on one of the most important days of my life.
Karine NO KA OI!!!
Love,
Maureen

Hello Karine!!
We are back home now and I just wanted to Thank you so much again for going above and beyond for my wedding day. You were easily the best decision I made because the way you look and feel affects everything else and I felt like a million bucks that day. I would like to write a testimonial for your website as well but in the mean time, I just wanted to thank you again.
Have a great day,
Michelle Miller

Once again thanks for coming by and doing my hair and makeup. You did a great job! I loved the curls, which still looked great the day after!

Mahalo!

Hi Karine!
It was so nice meeting you yesterday! You are so talented and I am so glad that I found you to do my hair.. I know it will look amazing!! Brandon kept going on and on about how much he loved my hair, so I am 100% going with our last hairstyle (curly on the side with the bump on top). I just kept telling him "nope, I'm not wearing this hairstyle" just to throw him off- haha. We actually were driving with the top down for a while, and my hair stayed perfect for hours.. I think it was all the hairspray on the curls. I was wondering if you could e-mail me an exact amount for tomorrow so that we have enough cash on hand. I'm so excited now that we met and I see how great you are!! If you want to come a little later tomorrow, I won't mind since I know how fast you are at perfecting things. :) Talk to you soon & see you tomorrow!!

Aloha Karine,
You made the whole experience the BEST for us! I wouldn't have trusted our hair and faces to anyone else. You made us feel comfortable and even pretty!
Thanks for the pics! My hair was totally amazing. I'll send you some pictures when I get them.
Thank you!
Autumn

Karine,
I just wanted to thank you so much for everything. I couldn't have been happier with my hair and make-up, you did a wonderful job and it turned out exactly how I wanted. Although I hadn't originally planned on having my make-up done, I am so happy that you did the air brushed make-up. It looked beautiful all evening and it was so nice not having to worry about it rubbing off. Your personality is wonderful, you made me feel so comfortable and relaxed on what can be a stressful day. I was amazed at how fast you worked to accomplish the professional finished results. I don't know how I will ever go through another special occasion without your services, I was serious when I said I might have to fly to the states the next time we have a wedding in our family. Thank you again for helping to make our day so special.
You're the best!
Lee Anne

Thank you again so much- my hair/makeup looked amazing!!

Love and kissesI live in San Diego, and was getting married in Maui…one of my biggest dilemma was how can I possibly find THE RIGHT hair and makeup artist, and trust that the artist can do what I want for me and my bridal party.
