Kristin Kaide Beauty specializes in hair, makeup, and grooming for media production and events.
Hair and makeup can either be a distraction or help tell the story you’re trying to convey. We believe it’s vital to work closely with each brand on expressing YOUR vision. In a world when you only get one chance to film it right but it’s going to live online forever, it’s absolutely necessary to over- communicate the end goal and work as a team from start to finish.
Meet Kristin
In 2013, shortly after graduating from cosmetology, Kristin Kaide burst onto the beauty scene when she was named a finalist in Sebastian's What's Next Awards. With more than 700 entries, her top-15 finish in the international competition was beyond her imagination. This experience landed her among the "who's who" of up-and-coming American hairdressers and fueled her interest in the editorial world.
Owner of Kristin Kaide Beauty, Kristin’s roster includes styling for New York and London Fashion Week, commercials, and film. Her work has been printed in Elegant Magazine, Voyage Chicago, CS Modern Luxury, Better Magazine and others.
With 400+ hours of continuing education, Kristin is constantly sharpening her skills. In 2018, she was awarded the Cosmetologists Chicago President's Scholarship. She has trained in California, New York, Vegas, and London, and is also a senior educator for Moroccanoil.
Kristin is a member of the American Cosmetology Association, Cosmetologists of Chicago Association, and The Powder Group. She generously volunteers her time as an annual stylist for St. Baldrick's, as an instructor for Reason to Give, an organization that assists women who are re-entering the workforce, and The Beyond Project.
