Absolute actual legend

I don't even have enough words to describe how amazing Hayley was and is from start to finish. For someone who had no idea what to do and how to look she completely made me and my bridesmaids (mostly me but also everyone) feel completely comfortable and I had complete trust in her from the minute we started talking! So easy and fun and effortlessly amazing. Can't thank you enough!!!!!!!

We absolutely loved having Hayley as part of our wedding morning! 🤍

From the moment she arrived, Hayley was so friendly and warm, she made every single one of us feel completely comfortable and at ease. She fit in perfectly with our relaxed morning and It was so lovely to be able to sit and chat with her whilst she worked her magic.

Most importantly, every single one of us felt beautiful and was so happy with our make-up. Hayley listened to what we wanted and made each of us feel like the best version of ourselves.

Thank you so much, Hayley, for being such a lovely part of our day and for making us all feel so special. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better! 🤍✨

Amazing hair and makeup!

Hayley was fantastic right from the beginning. From our very first point of communication, Hayley was able to clear up any questions I had, provide information and book a trial run very quickly. Hayley did the hair and makeup for both myself and my mum for my small wedding. Neither of us had experienced this before and Hayley was amazing at taking our thoughts on board and at suggesting what would suit us. I was also very impressed with how the makeup she did held up in the 34 degree heat on my wedding day. Could not recommend Hayley enough - she’s amazing!!!

Very talented artist and great energy to have in the room!

Can’t recommend Hayley highly enough!! I booked her after being bridesmaid at another wedding and she just brought the most relaxed energy and incredible skill! I was so happy with my hair and make up and they lasted all day (including an open top car and a sea breeze!) I’m in awe of her talent- she was able to adapt to quickly to everyone’s requests and made us all feel great!!
If you’re looking for someone flexible, genuine and with a true passion for natural and cruelty free beauty- she really is the best!

Lovely stylist!

Hayley was just fabulous from start to finish! She listened to me right from the start on what I wanted and what my worries were (I don't wear make up daily so was worried it would feel strange on the day). She was reassuring and completely put me at ease. I did not stress once about hair and make up once she had sais she could do it. On the day she was relaxed, efficient, lovely company and fitted in so well with my family and bridesmaids it felt easy and comfortable. I loved what she did with my hair and make up and would strongly recommend Hayley to anyone!

Hayley is absolutely incredible

Hayley is not only incredibly talented, she's also such a great vibe - which is exactly what you want when you're getting ready for your wedding. She made all my bridesmaids and flower girls look gorgeous, and was super patient with the little ones, and I felt like an absolute queen.

Hayley is the most incredible make up artist and she also did such a fantastic job with my hair - which is unruly at the best of times. I loved working with her xxx

Thank you so much Hayley!

Hayley is such a brilliant hair and make up artist, I could not recommend her more. She knew exactly what would look good on me and worked with me to make sure I got exactly what I wanted on the big day. I had a trial which was worth every penny as I actually ended up changing my mind about what I thought I wanted- Hayley was absolutely spot on with her recommendations. I loved my hair and make up on the day. She is such a friendly and calm presence to have around on your wedding morning, I felt so relaxed! She made so much effort with all of my bridesmaids, my mum and my little 4 year old flower girl- they all loved her and her work. Thanks so much Hayley.

Thank you Hayley!

Hayley was absolutely fantastic, she is incredibly professional and you can tell she has a wealth of experience. Everyone’s makeup, and my hair, lasted all night (and into the next day…). Her natural style was just what I was looking for, and with 7 bridesmaids plus two mums, the quick makeup option was perfect for a relaxed morning getting ready as I’d heard horror stories of 5am starts!
Although we didn’t have time to do a trial, Hayley arranged a phone call with me to chat about what I wanted beforehand, and she arrived fully prepared on the day.
I would definitely go to Hayley if I need my hair or makeup done again, thank you so much!

Bath Wedding May 2026

Cannot praise Hayley enough! On a day where you naturally feel abot nervy, Hayley was fantastic at making me feel relaxed and excited. Whilst I was unable to have a trial a quick video call was all it took for Hayley to give me the perfect hair and makeup on the big day! I felt beautiful and the pictures were stunning, I cant thank her enough!

Hayley is just the best you can get, don’t look any further..

Hayley is such an exceptionally talented make up and hair artist and you truly cannot get any better; she is truly beautiful inside and out and her ability to make you feel wonderful absolutely shines through.

As someone with shorter hair and a specific vision on how I wanted to look, Hayley listened and went above and beyond to give me my dream bridal look. I didn’t want to look like every other bride and Hayley delivers your individualised look based on both your own wishes and what will work well on your skin and hair to create an incredible look.

On the day of my wedding, I had a bit of a crisis and Hayley was calm, compassionate and very patient which is just what I needed. I cannot recommend her enough.

There are make-up artists out there who deliver a one size fits all uniform look for every bride and then there is Hayley who’s advanced skills will have you looking beautifully unique according to exactly what you want.

Dreamy Hair & Makeup for my special day

Hayley did a fantastic job at my Hair & Makeup for my Wedding in North Devon. I took advantage of the pre-wedding trail appointment with her to discuss my requirements and try out our plans which wired really well.

Hayley knew exactly what kind of makeup suited my skin tone plus she incorporated some of my own so I could keep my lips topped up when she wasn’t around later throughout the day and evening.

I had a rather heavy veil which Hayley managed to secure very well and it all stayed in place perfectly.

Thank you Hayley for helping make my day so special! x

Must have hair and make-up artist!!!!

Since the first time I spoke to Hayley I knew she was the artist I wanted for my wedding day. She was incredibly communicative, friendly and supportive.

She listened to my desires, whilst also inputting her professional advice to create the perfect look for myself, my mum and bridesmaid. She has such a talent with hair and make up, and really is an artist.
100% recommend.

Thank you again Hayley! Xxx

HDB, what a superstar! ♥️

I don’t know where to begin! Hayley is incredibly approachable, warm, kind, lovely person both in person and over the phone, and she was an absolute pleasure to have as a part of our day. She was very reassuring and helped me massively in deciding on my final look as I was never certain or sure what to go with. Hayley was incredibly flexible with my trial booking, as she travelled all the way to London from the South West and was able to work around my crazy shift work schedule.

Now to the actual day, she arrived early, kept me calm, chilled as the time ticked down, and even helped me put on my shoes (which was a bit of a struggle in my dress). The look itself on the day was amazing, I felt incredible and it was exactly what I wanted. Hayley worked an absolute miracle on my hair, it’s normally flat as anything and it stayed put all day. My bridal party that Hayley had done various hair and make up on were nothing but complimentary regarding her work, including my MiL, who normally hates having her make up done by another person as it never meets her expectation, but she had the opposite experience when having her makeup done by Hayley.

If you’re thinking of booking Hayley as your HMUA, absolutely 1000% do it. There’s a reason why she’s booked up and wins so many awards. She is incredibly skilful at what she does but topping it off, she’s just a lovely person as well.

Thank you so much for making me live my Dita von Teese fantasy on my wedding day!

Exceptional!

Hayley was an absolute dream to work with! She instantly made us all feel comfortable and at ease, and she went above and beyond to make sure I and my bridal party felt beautiful and confident with our hair and makeup. Not only was she professional, but her warmth and friendliness truly made the morning so special. Communication was easy from start to finish, and I honestly couldn’t recommend Hayley enough, she’s incredible at what she does and such a joy to be around!
