Highly highly recommend!

Gemma has been perfect throughout the whole process from initial enquiry to the wedding day! She responds to any messages super quickly and sent over all the details really clearly, her pricing is super good value for money too. My trial was great and I just wanted to make a couple tweaks on the day which was no problem for Gemma. She has a great energy and helped to keep the wedding morning stress free! My bridal party all loved their hair and mine was literally perfect! It was exactly what I wanted and stayed put the whole day. One of the bridesmaids actually slept in her hair and it stayed till the next day!! Can’t recommended enough!

Beautiful seaside wedding hair!

Gemma came to our house and did my hair - the bride, 2 adult bridesmaids, a flower girl aged 8 and a bridesmaid aged 2. She was friendly and flexible throughout, contributing to a fun morning and working well with our makeup artist. Gemma was professional, building a good rapport with all of us and listening to our choices and preferences. We had several different styles, and had lots of compliments throughout the day about how beautiful we looked! Gemma’s prices were very reasonable, and I would highly recommend her.

Thank you Gemma!!🫶🏼

Gemma was honestly amazing!!
She was so lovely and nothing was ever too much trouble. She absolutely nailed everyone’s hair and even managed to squeeze my mum in last minute, which we were so grateful for.

She made the whole morning feel so relaxed and fun, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better.
Gemma made me feel so confident with my hair, and my curls lasted all day which for me is unheard of!

I’ll definitely be coming back to Gemma for any future events, and I’ll be recommending her to everyone I know. 10000% recommend, she is so so talented, thank you Gemma!!🤍

Salomons estate 4.7.26

The absolutely best of the best! From the start of my trial to the end of my wedding day Gemma made me feel so comfortable and beautiful, I came in with a vision and Gemma really bought it to life.

Everybody complemented my hair and how it stayed in place and lasted all day! You’re amazing at what you do and anybody who books you is going to have the most beautiful wedding hair! I can’t thank you enough for all you did for me and my bridesmaids 🥹🥹

Wedding Hair

Gemma was incredible from the minute I booked to the day of the wedding! I had a hair trial a couple of months before the wedding and my hair looked amazing. I however decided to change the style due to the weather and Gemma was so helpful and responded quickly to all my messages!

Gemma was wonderful on the day of the wedding. She did my hair, x4 bridesmaids, MOB and MOG and still had time to spare. Each of us had a differently hairstyle and she was so accommodating. Everyone’s hair looked beautiful and I couldn’t have been happier with the end results!

I highly recommend working with Gemma, she is a lovely person with an eye for detail and is an artist with hair!

Best hairstylist in Kent

From the moment Gemma arrived, she was so friendly and chatty, which made everyone feel relaxed and made the whole morning an stress-free experience. Gemma worked her magic on me as the bride, my two bridesmaids, and the mother of the bride, creating beautiful hairstyles that suited each one of us perfectly! Gemma listened to what we all wanted, and the hairstyles had incredible attention to detail.
I couldn't recommend Gemma highly enough—thank you for helping make the day so special!

Gemma is absolutely amazing! From start to finish, from the trial all through to the wedding day, she was amazing and created exactly what I envisioned. On the morning of the wedding she brought a relaxed and calm energy to the getting ready suite and created the most beautiful hair for myself and my bridal party. I naturally have thick heavy hair, so was a little worried about an up do, but even on the hottest day of the year my hair remained immaculate! Absolutely recommend!

Highly Recommend ✨

Gemma did the hair for me and my bridesmaids on my wedding day, and she was absolutely incredible. She created beautiful, individual styles for each of us, taking everyone's preferences into account and making sure we all felt our best.
Her attention to detail, professionalism, organisation, and warm, friendly nature made the whole morning run smoothly and stress-free. Her experience and expertise were evident throughout, and I couldn't have asked for a better hairstylist for such an important day.

I would highly recommend Gemma for any occasion, but especially for your wedding day. She played such a big part in making the day feel special, and I was thrilled with the results.

My dream hairstyle

Gemma was a recommended supplier for Broome Park Hotel, thats how I discovered her. What I really liked about Gemma's style initially was her attention to detail and neatness on her portfolio online. In some other hairdresser's portfolios, the hair finish looked over styled and had heat damage on their images. So I booked Gemma for my wedding in May 2026.

On the trial day, we visited Gemma's salon near Westwood cross and had a great experience. Gemma was keen to understand my bridesmaid and my mums style, as well as understanding the look I wanted to achieve with my wedding hair. Gemma created the most wonderful updo full of drama and elegance, exactly the look I was trying to achieve with my dress. I felt so beautiful.

On the day, Gemma arrived on time and with speed and agility completed all the bridesmaid hair styles quickly. Then she replicated my hair exactly as before and stayed around to do touch ups until the ceremony time. Gemma was very helpful and even chipped in to help my mum getting in her dress with her zip as we ran out of time as we reached the ceremony time.

I got so many comments on my hair and overall look. The hair stayed put all day and the following day too!

If you're looking for neat, elegant hair to add some glamour and class to your wedding look - look no further than Gemma.

Highly recommend 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 💇‍♀️

Magician!!

I cannot recommend you highly enough! From start to finish, you were incredibly patient, kind, and professional. Nothing was ever too much trouble, even when we needed to add another bridesmaid at the last minute. You accommodated everything so calmly and made the whole morning feel relaxed and enjoyable.
The hairstyles you created were absolutely beautiful, and I honestly felt the most confident and beautiful version of myself on my wedding day. I received countless compliments on my hair from guests throughout the day, and it stayed perfect from morning until night.
You didn’t just meet my expectations—you completely exceeded them. Your talent, attention to detail, and genuine care for your clients truly set you apart. Thank you for helping make my wedding day so special and for making me feel amazing. I am so grateful and would recommend you to any bride!

Great work, great ideas, reliable and value too.

Gem took her time to establish everyone’s wishes. Trial was brilliant to establish what was achievable for the day. On the day she was amazing fitting in 6. She worked with the MUA too for great time management. She worked with young bridesmaids and hair extensions too. Would highly recommend her.

Just perfect 💖

Gemma did mine and my bridal party's hair this April and I couldn't have been happier, I genuinely just felt incredible. I showed her inspo and she literally replicated it to a T. Same for the rest of my bridal party! Everything was absolutely perfect.

She was also so much fun to chat to and really got involved with us all and it just felt like another friend was there. And most importantly, we all felt absolutely amazing! I felt the most beautiful I'd ever felt in my whole life.

If you're thinking of booking Gemma, DO IT! You won't regret it.

Gemma, thank you so so much 🥰🥹💘
