About Us

We are twin sisters Kristin & Kayla Franklin! Together we own Realm Artistry, a beauty & creative studio here in Keene, New Hampshire. Since childhood, we have always valued any artistic outlet we could get our hands on. Our love for fine & performing arts naturally led to our love for the beauty industry. We've spent the last 8 years perfecting our craft on Long Island, New York, and we're so happy to be back in our hometown to reconnect with the community here! From beauty school, working in salons and an art studio, to selling our artwork, owning a bridal hairstyling business and opening our own studio -- we've learned and grown so much during our time in New York. We've always viewed the beauty industry as a form of self expression, a creative outlet not only for ourselves but for our clientele as we bring your visions to life. Our goal with Realm Artistry is to continue to offer our hairstyling services, while expanding into new creative territory. Keep an eye out as we add new services to our repertoire and handmade items to our shop! We're looking forward to sharing this safe space with you, hosting workshops, and supporting other local artists! You can book with us for your next hair transformation by visiting us in-studio, or we'll travel throughout New York & New England to style you for your wedding or special event!
