Totally Fabulous 🤩

Kirsten is amazingly talented.

As an older bride I was concerned that I would look too over done.
I did not need to worry, as Kirsten was extremely patient at the trial and created a couple of make up looks and hair styles that complemented my own style.

On the big day, she excelled herself.
Nothing was too much trouble and with myself and my four bridesmaids, she created a chic and elegant look for us all.

Kirsten is kind, caring and extremely professional….would highly recommend her 😁

Amazing hair and make-up artist

Kirsten did both mine and my wife's hair and make-up on our wedding day and we absolutely loved our looks! Kirsten is incredibly skilled but also so lovely to be around - she made us feel relaxed and comfortable. We genuinely felt beautiful and we couldn't thank her enough! 100% recommend.

Perfect Hair and Makeup

Kristen was very friendly, polite and professional from day 1. At the trial, she listened to exactly what I wanted for my bridal hair and makeup and replicated it beautifully. On the day, she was very prompt and made me feel at ease. I would definitely recommend her to anyone planning their wedding. Thank you for everything!

Perfect hair day!

Right from the first contact Kirsten was really easy to talk to, throughout the planning process she regularly kept in touch, and was so flexible with every regulation change due to Covid-19. Sadly a week before the wedding the Government decided to postpone the relaxation of the rules, meaning that Kirsten could no longer do my make up for the big day, something that I was really nervous about doing myself.
On the day Kirsten was a pleasure to have with us while we were getting ready, she has such a calming presence, but even better just gets what you’re looking for! Kirsten did my hair, plus my two bridesmaids, and we each only had to show her a photo for her to get what we wanted, and she did such an amazing job too, we all loved our hair styles on the day!
Kirsten also talked me through my make up application and made sure that I left the house looking beautiful!
Thank you so much Kirsten, you were a dream and I hope we’ll see you again in the future.

Gorgeous wedding hair and makeup

Kirsten was a pleasure to work with for our wedding. She was a lovely calm presence while me and my maid of honour got ready in the morning, everything was well timed and planned out by her so that we ran on time.

Our hair and makeup looked absolutely stunning from the moment she finished to when I took mine off/out at the end of the day. It survived me crying through the ceremony and having photos outside in a blustery and rainy storm! My hair doesn't hold curls well but in her hands it looked stunning and was no problem.

She was also so well organised and nothing was too much trouble. I wouldn't hesitate to book Kirsten again for an event and would highly recommend her.

Kirsten is super talented at creating your dream hair.

I can’t recommend Kirsten enough. She did amazing hair for myself and my two bridesmaids.
The hair she created for me was my dream hair, she made me feel so confident and special. It lasted the entire night, even the curls and even through drizzle rain, nothing was out of place! Kirsten took a lot of care and attention to detail with each hair piece she created.
I will certainly be recommending her to everyone and booking her in again if I have any more dos to go too!
Not only is Kirsten incredibly talented at what she does but she was pleasure to be around on the morning of my wedding.
Ask her if she’s free today for your special day, you won’t regret it!

Lovely, special experience

I didn’t want to wash my face ever again! Kirsten was friendly and professional - and was so happy with outcome. Having never had anyone do my make-up for me I was unsure and I thought a trial would be necessary - but we talked through some ideas and she interpreted what I tried to explain perfectly. I was really happy with my make-up, I had the airbrush foundation and think it was worth every penny. Everything stayed in place all day and made me have the confidence to smile at the camera (which I usually hate!). This was my special treat and was totally worth it. I wish I could see Kirsten every day xx

High level Professional

Kirsten is a dedicated professional, with the trial she doesn’t stop until you feel happy with your hair style! Coming from Spain I wasn’t sure what will I find , but luckily I have found her who makes me feel that I was on a high level professional hands. On my wedding there she was so supportive and dedicated , she did my mother make up and gifted her the eyelashes which was a nice detail. She transformed my ideas in reality . I do truly recommend her as a bride and soon as a guest !

Thank you for everything.

Kirsten was a delight to have around the morning of the wedding - a sea of calm open to any and all changes and speedy work that meant she covered the key wedding party alone. I chose Kirsten as she was able to do both hair and make-up and her previous worked showed she could do a very relaxed natural look. We were all very happy with the outcome and would highly recommend Kirsten to anyone for their wedding/party etc. Thank you for everything.

Amazing

Kirsten did an amazing job. I am quite a relaxed person and wanted a hairstyle that would feel comfortable for the entire day. I have often struggled with hairdressers getting my hair the way that I like it. Kirsten went out of her way to come to my house to do the initial trial. It looked beautiful although possibly a little curlier than I felt comfortable with so she made some adjustments which suited me far bettter and she agreed that she would do the same on the day. She did an even better job on the wedding day than I expected and not only with my hair but also my maid of honour and my Mum. We all received so many compliments. I would definitely recommend Kirsten. She is lovely and friendly and has a lovely calm way about her which is just what is needed on your wedding day.

Fantastic at what she does

Kirsten was wonderful on my wedding day. She arranged my hair and makeup beautifully to compliment my personality, what I was wearing and the wedding day itself; taking the time to get to know me and what I was hoping for during my trial. She made me feel completely at ease on what can be a very stressful day and was also able to cope with five bridesmaids single handed! My hair and makeup made me feel confident and beautiful and I know my new husband certainly appreciated the overall effect as well! I wholeheartedly recommend Kirsten. She is dependable, personable, a wonderfully calming influence and fantastic at what she does.

An incredible job

Thank you so much for an incredible job on my wedding hair and makeup. You were so patient, sweet and friendly and put me, my bridesmaids and mum very much at ease. We all felt amazing and stayed that way throughout the whole day, despite tears, warm weather and lots of dancing! Thank you so much again :)

She delivered the perfect style I had been longing for

Kirsten completely nailed my wedding hair brief. She delivered the perfect style I had been longing for after hours of Pinterest curating to find the elegant-yet-casual style I’d been searching for in the months leading up to my wedding. I didn’t have a trial, but had my heart set on soft, shiny, effortless waves.


I thrust one or two photos her way, and armed with a load of sectioning clips she performed a miracle on the morning of our wedding. Not only that, but she was perfectly calm, professional, friendly and relaxed – and somehow managed to juggle my mum and four bridesmaids on her own as well. Kirsten got the bridesmaids’ elegant-casual-cool looks spot-on, and my mum embraced compliments all day and evening about her gorgeous up do.


It’s so important to feel beautiful and comfortable before you shut the door behind you to walk down the aisle, and I was so pleased to be able to completely hand over the creative process to Kirsten’s talents. I’d recommend her in a heartbeat.
