Services
Our team comes to you, at the venue of your choice, so that you and your bridal party can relax and be pampered as we create the look of your dreams. We are based on the Central Coast, in San Luis Obispo, and we travel between San Francisco and Los Angeles. Our team is a team of artists and experts.
It's a different kind of foundation delivery, instead of using brushes it blows the makeup seamlessly onto the skin and we can control the level of coverage to the clients desires. It lasts 12-15 hours, photographs beautifully, and it great for sensitive, or mature skin. We can travel to location, there will be a fee that varies depending on location.

I can't express enough how amazing this business is! Jenn was absolutely amazing and accommodating-- really working with my wants/needs. Definitely do a trial run if you're hiring for bridal hair! Megan was like a magician and really made my bridal makeup look absolutely stunning, I couldn't have been more happy with these services!!!

I don't know how I got so lucky to work with Jenn, but my goodness, THANK YOU!!! From the very beginning, Jenn was so understanding and always quick to respond no matter how insanely busy she was. When we had to postpone and go through the uncertainty of COVID wedding planning, Jenn was incredibly supportive and kind, even as she had to navigate her own COVID wedding and other life events. From my bridal trial to the day of, Jenn and her team were incredible. I had the pleasure of working with Jenn for my makeup and Kayla for my hair, and they both could take my frazzled/fragments of different

Jenn was amazing in organizing the right fit for bridal and bridesmaids hair. Jordy was our stylist and she nailed it! I immediately knew she was the perfect fit from our trial, super easy going and friendly and she does great work! All of my bridesmaids were very impressed as well as my mom! I would highly recommend Queen's Bees and Jordy!

Every time a bride or client asks for professional hair and makeup recommendations, I always send them to Jenn.
Not only is Jenn just a genuinely lovely person with some hilarious stories that will keep you entertained, but she's truly an artist. I know that my clients are going got have a positive experience with her and look incredible.
I've worked with many stylists and makeup artists over the years and The Queens Bees still reigns as the best!

Jenn and Jordy did my make up and hair on my wedding day, I was looking forward to get glammed up but unfortunately the make up and hair made me look washed out and didn't bring up any of my features. I didn't look like myself but rather old and pale, it was odd. I have done make up with Mac cosmetics at the mall and when they finish, I couldn't believe how fabulous I felt. With Queens bees it was the opposite I looked pale, washed out. The hair spray they use was so sticky that you couldn't run your fingers thru your hair. For how much they charge $300 for hair/make up I

I had some trouble finding hair stylists for my wedding during the pandemic, however when I found the Queen's Bees I was SO happy with the service I received. Janina was my stylist and she was absolutely amazing!! I had very little idea of what to do with my hair on my wedding day and she was able to capture my few ideas and come up with a few ideas within minutes. Additionally, she was more than willing to show me a few different options during my trial in order to ensure that I was 100% confident in my wedding day look. She was such a joy to have around on my wedding day and my hair looked

If you need a stylist for your wedding, look no further, Jenn IS IT. I had three hair trials before my wedding and nobody was getting it right. The Queen Bees came highly recommended to me days before my wedding. I was so nervous the day of my wedding as Jenn prefers to do a trial before but there wasn't time for that. She showed up on time and instantly put me at ease. Her demeanor is great and she is so easy to talk to. She took control of the situation immediately asking me throughout the process if I liked this or that as she tweaked my hairstyle. I have very thick, heavy hair for a side

I can't thank Queens Bees enough!
Our hair and makeup people cancelled 2 weeks before our wedding and in a panic, I called queens bees to see if they could either help, last minute, which I felt like was never going to happen, or point me in the direction of someone who could help.
They not only found 1 person for makeup, but two people to help, including coming from a previous event. They went above and beyond and my girls looked AMAZING! I am so grateful for them for literally saving our wedding day! They listened to what all the girls wanted and everyone was so happy! And the makeup lasted

I am starting to realize I give 5 stars for everything....but seriously I only take the time to review places that I am blown away with.
I booked The Queens Bees for Hair/Make-up for a photoshoot I did at Madonna Inn for my 1-year wedding anniversary. Jenn was very responsive and accommodating (she came in at 6:30 AM!). I have gotten hair/make-up done enough to know, 1. I am not an expert 2. with that said, some artists don't listen to my preferences/wants.
Jennifer gave advice and recommendations when I asked regarding style/make-up but also listened to key components that either make

The Queens Bees are the gold standard for wedding hair and makeup. They can handle large groups and come to you so you can relax and enjoy your day with your friends and family. I've worked with Jenn and all the crew numerous times and they are all warm, professional, and oh so cool! Hire them and know you will be looking gorgeous for your day.

Jenn from Queen's Bees took care of all the timing and planning via email making things stress free and convenient. Rece was our hair stylist and was extremely punctual and professional. He styled all the ladies just as requested. There was some worry about how the hair would hold up. However, everyone looked great well into the night no flat messy hair here. Thanks Beauty Goes Everywhere for the recommendation.

The Queens Bees provided hair/make-up services for our wedding last weekend, and I was extremely happy with their work. Jenn is super organized, kind, and responsive. I knew I was in good hands with her team from the beginning.
We had Adelita for make-up and Maryah for hair. They are both amazing artists. My husband is really picky about hair/make-up and he loved my look. Adelita really knows her stuff. She gave me great recommendations for skincare and my make-up lasted all day. I also felt like she took me seriously when I said "natural," which a lot of times doesn't happen with

I just got married this past weekend and I had the Queen Bees help make me beautiful for the big day. They did all the updos of my bridesmaids and mother and my hair and makeup. Everyone's came out flawlessly. I didn't have the means to travel for a trial run, but it seems it wasn't needed. I showed them pictures of the hair and makeup I desired and they replicated almost identically. They traveled to us, were punctual and extremely friendly. Their entire staff is very professional. HIGHLY recommended.

We brought Queen Bees to our daughter's wedding venue in SLO, and they handled hair styles for the wedding party of six, and makeup for three. It worked out beautifully!! They were on time, professional, and brought beautiful results! We so appreciate you, Queen Bees! Highly recommend these ladies for your needs. They also had a great recommendation for nails. LOVE! Thanks, ladies!

Just can't say enough about Jenn and Katie. We had a destination beach wedding, and these girls came to us. We had such a wonderful experience. There was no worry about the quality of the service, or if they could get the job done. They made us feel beautiful and at ease. We felt as if they were family by the end of it all. I would highly recommend them. People like these are hard to come by, and when you meet good people, its awesome to do business with them. Love you guys!

From the very beginning Jenn was kind, responsive, and professional when I e-mailed for hair and makeup for my engagement session. I'd loved her photos online. In person....OMG SHE IS AMAZING!!!!!! Yes, she made me look beautiful, but, more than that, she made me FEEL beautiful and glamorous! I was so much more confident going into our engagement session after spending a couple hours with her. How I wish I looked like that everyday! It was honestly depressing washing all her gorgeous work off. Jenn made me look like the very best version of myself.
I seriously want to put her in my pocket

I have never felt more beautiful! Thank you Jennifer for being so pleasant, professional, and easy to coordinate with for my wedding make up needs. I had my bridal make up trial done at their location in SLO and the ever so sweet and talented, Amber, made beauty magic come to fruition on my face. It was my first time having air brush foundation and I will never go back. It felt like I wasn't wearing any make up and my face looked and felt great! When it comes to false lashes, she attaches them flawlessly. It's clear that she has a natural talent and passion for make up. We had so much

Jenn and her team made me and my bridesmaids (and mother, mothers-in-law, AND sisters-in-law) look amazing on my wedding day. I'm very uncomfortable wearing anything more than eyeliner and mascara, but Jenn's touch is extremely light. I was totally comfortable with the makeup, and I'm in awe of how I look in the photos! Jenn is also just a delight and made me feel very at ease on a stressful day.
Katie did my hair, and she and I went through a few options, and she was able to give me exactly what I wanted on the big day.

We had the absolute best experience working with The Queen's Bees!
My husband and I got married this past August at HammerSky Vineyards. Since it was a destination wedding I had to decide on a H&M team remotely, which was a very stressful process. I have been in many, many weddings and have been unhappy with my hair and makeup nearly every time, so I was very concerned about picking a styling team without being able to meet in person and have a trial. I like a very light and natural look, and no matter how often I communicate that I always feel like my makeup is much too heavy and hair overstyled
