Brilliant hair and makeup!

Kirstie did hair and makeup for me and my bridesmaids on my wedding day. The hair and makeup were all gorgeous and she helped to create a lovely relaxed environment on the morning of the wedding - thank you Kirstie!

Thank you so much Kirstie!

Kirstie first did my hair and make up when I was a Bridesmaid for my friends wedding last year. I was so happy with the results that I asked if she would be able to do it again for my wedding earlier this year - she said yes and did another wonderful job!

Kirstie was great at listening to what I had in mind and discussing different options, making me feel comfortable every step of the way. I would highly recommend Kirstie to anyone who is looking to have their hair and make up done on their special day

I just want to start by saying thank you so much to Kirstie for your help, professionalism and calming nature on our big day

I honestly can not recommend Kirstie enough. Right from the beginning she has been fantastic talking through different styles and making my vision become real. On the day itself, her work was amazing and all day the compliments didn't stop on how nice my hair and makeup was and both lasted through the whole day! Kirstie goes above and beyond being a hair and makeup artist ensuring you have everything you need whilst getting ready and keeping everyone calm. Even down to the tiny details and capturing some amazing moments that we will treasure forever.

Thank you again Kirstie, I will definitely be recommending to friends/family in the future!

Certainly recommend Kirstie

I would highly recommend Kirstie for makeup and hair. I had lots of comments on my hair, it stayed in place all day. My make was perfect, someone said ' I had a youthful glow'. Kirstie is lovely and listens to what you want.

Fantastic!

Kirstie was great! From the wedding trial to the actual day, she did a wonderful job and Kelly, who has with her, was also wonderful. They provided me with a very comprehensive touch up kit for after Kirstie had gone so my makeup looked great all night. We can’t thank you enough!

Just amazing!

I’m so happy I booked with Kirstie for my hair and make up. From start to finish the whole experience was so professional, calm and relaxed. She listened to every request, likes, dislikes and WOW she delivered! I loved our trial, felt as if I’d know her for years after she left. Then on the morning of the wedding she kept things running smoothly, we had 6 bridesmaids, bride, mother of the groom, a nan and even an extra nan that decided she wanted a little pamper the morning of, all while making me look and feel incredible and kept me super calm. She’d grab my drink, food, fluff my dress, anything I needed, she was there. I’d recommend Kirstie to any future bride, she really was incredible! Thank you again xx

Hair and make up sept 2024

I can't thank Kirstie enough for the incredible job she did on my wedding day! From our first consultation to the big day itself, she was such a joy to work with.

On the day of the wedding, she arrived right on time and brought such a positive energy. Kristie listened to my ideas and offered her expert suggestions, which I truly appreciated.

My hair and make up was everything I dreamed of—elegant and effortless, yet it held up beautifully throughout the entire day.

I’m so grateful to Kirstie for making me feel like a bride on my special day. Thank you for making my wedding day unforgettable!

Calm and relaxed :)

After the make up trial I knew I was in safe hands for my bid day. Kirstie is lovely and she did an excellent job, I felt beautiful and my hair was exactly as I wanted. She did a fabulous job of colour matching and using products that were right for me. My bridesmaid and mum looked beautiful too. We had a very relaxed morning and our looks lasted through the day.. my hair survived the windy weather and the dance floor too :) Thankyou x

The perfect hair and make-up artist!

Kirstie was absolutely wonderful from start to finish! She helped me to find the perfect hair style and make-up for the day, the trial was really helpful, and she also replied quickly to messages as the final arrangements came together. She was super organised which meant the wedding morning went really smoothly - and I was able to stay relaxed! She was warm and friendly throughout the whole process and helped put everyone at ease, including our littlest bridesmaid who was only six. The make-up and hair turned out beautifully and stayed in place all day despite the rainy weather. I couldn't have asked for a better hair and make-up artist and would highly recommend Kirstie. Thank you again!

May 2023 Wedding

Kirstie was fantastic right from her prompt response when we first contacted her. We only had 4 months to plan the wedding so her excellent organisation skills and flexibility were so helpful. Kirstie came to our home for the make up and hair trials on the day of our hen party and was patient with the many times we changed our mind on the style we wanted. When we initially booked Kirstie it was just for us 2 brides but we later decided to have 6 bridesmaids and mother of the bride and Kirstie was straight away able to form a team of 3 for hair and make up for everyone. On the day of the wedding, Kirstie and her team were punctual and brought a sense of calm to the chaos. They travelled to the venue with us to make sure we were all wedding-ready which helped with the pre-wedding nerves. Thank you Kirstie for being such an important part of our wedding day.

A huge thank you

Kirstie - thank you so much for your hard work on my wedding day. From the outset, you have been professional and welcoming, creating a perfect clean and glowy makeup look - exactly what I wanted. Your lovely warm nature was perfect on the wedding morning as we were getting ready, and I am extremely grateful that you used your years of experience and talent to prepare my bridesmaids and I.

June wedding Hair and Makeup

Where do I begin? From the moment I first contacted Kirstie she was so lovely and responsive to my questions. I asked her for hair and makeup and then hair or makeup for my bridal party. At my trial she filled me with ease and was really flexible to change my look after I found another style I wanted to go with my dress. On the day Kirstie was calm and made me and my bridal party feel really relaxed. She was also not phased at all when my mum suddenly changed from hair to makeup and was so lovely to have a little goodie bag with samples in to keep makeup looking fresh throughout the day. Both our hair and makeup looked fantastic for the whole day even though it was nearly 30 degrees! Could not recommend a Kirstie enough:)

Happy with the service, would recommend.

Kirstie was very professional and gave me lots of good advice about make up and skin care. She would listen to want kind of make up I wanted and helped me to choose colours carefully.
