Outstanding hair and perfect make up

Louise was outstanding and the day wouldn’t have been same without her. She made me and the bridesmaids look absolutely gorgeous, so many people commented on my beautiful hair during and after the wedding. She has considerable experience with make up and mine looked perfect throughout the day. Thank you so much for your professionalism and talents - you’ll forever be a part of my wedding memories

Nothing was too much for Louise!

Louise was calm, professional, fun and so accommodating. She went above and beyond and made us all feel amazing - as did her assistant Mollie.

She was super responsive to messages, clearly loves what she does and I would choose her a hundred times over again. My only wish is that she could get me ready everyday!

Thanks Louise and Mollie, five stars!

Wonderful hair and make up artist

Louise did both my hair and make up for my wedding in October 2024. Throughout the process she was helpful, professional and friendly. I was more than delighted with my hair and make up on the day and she took into account my ideas for the look and was able to adapt it to fit my personal aesthetic. I would thoroughly recommend Louise to any future bride.

I made the perfect decision


I couldn’t be happier with Louise’s work as my hair and makeup artist on my wedding day! She was professional, punctual, and incredibly skilled. As the bride, I wanted a look that would last all day, and Louise delivered beautifully. She created a stunning updo for the ceremony and showed my mum how to let it down in the evening, leaving me with soft, natural curls that looked effortless.

My sister, who’s not easily pleased, also loved her hair and makeup—Louise managed to exceed both of our expectations. She even finished early, giving us time to relax and have a quick glass of courage before walking down the aisle. Thank you, Louise, for adding such magic to my day!

A huge thank you to Louise for doing our hair & make-up for my Maid of Honour and me. Louise achieved the looks we wanted and was a pleasure to have around on the wedding morning. Always very prompt to respond to any queries and very accomodating booking our trials. The whole experience was great fun and I would defintiely recommend Louise.

Such a professional!

Louise was absolutely brilliant, from reaching out fairly last minute (I was heavily pregnant and completely forgot I hadn't booked anyone) she was so responsive and understanding if I went silent for a bit! I brought two of my bridesmaids along to the makeup trial and they were so thrilled with how friendly she was that they couldn't wait for the big day. She planned everything so thoroughly, there was no rushing which truly helped. Could not recommend her more!

The best❤️

Louis was the best, she’s the most kindest and most thoughtful person to have on your wedding day. On my wedding day before Louis arrived I lost my wedding band, I was stressed and she made the process a lot better by calming me down and helping me look for it. Towards the end she made my hair look amazing to the point that I felt like a princess and I didn’t want to take it out when we got back to the Hotel. She’s the best company to have on your wedding day ❤️

Amazing ❤️

Louise was a joy to work with from the first contact to our big day! Loved Louise's bubbly personality, professionalism and of course the make up and hair artistry! I felt very safe in her hands and my Mum who gets very nervous about hair and make up was super happy. I would absolutely recommended Louise - I felt very very beautiful on the day 😍

Fantastic hair and makeup

Louise was so lovely to work with. Throughout my trial and my wedding day she was calm, kind and clearly experienced. I imagined my wedding morning to feel quite stressful but her and Maria (who she asked to assist her) were so calm and ensured myself and my bridesmaids had a great morning. I felt really pretty on my wedding day and thought my bridesmaid's and my mum did too and that was all down to Louise.

Wedding Hair and Make up

Louise was so lovely to have as part of the getting ready process on the day and made everyone feel happy and relaxed.

She did such a great job with my hair and make up and made me feel amazing. I had a trial a couple of weeks before the wedding and she really listened to what I wanted and checked at every stage if I was happy with things. I’d definitely recommend Louise to other brides :)

Above and Beyond Expectations!

Louise did such a brilliant job with mine and my maid of honour’s hair and make-up. She was extremely attentive and really helped me to create the natural look I was going for. The result on the day was perfect and Louise has such a calming and supportive energy which really helped the pre-wedding nerves! Thank you for such a lovely wedding morning and for your knowledge and expertise which made the day run so smoothly from the beginning. My mother-in-law was so delighted with her up-do too! Would highly recommend to all brides.

Would recommend 100%

I could not have ask for better person to do my make up, Louise was so friendly and professional, she really put me at ease when I first met her and on the big day! Louise also listen to what I wanted and changed things if I changed my mind. I honestly, whole heartily would recommend her.

Having Louise as my makeup artist for my wedding was a truly wonderful experience.

As one of the most important days of my life, I felt a deep sense of security and confidence knowing that Louise would be there to help me look and feel my absolute best.

One of the key factors that drew me to Louise was her strong understanding and expertise in Asian-inspired makeup styles. As someone who prefers a more subtle, natural look that complements my Asian features, I was concerned about finding the right makeup artist who could deliver exactly what I envisioned. However, Louise exceeded all my expectations. She listened intently to my preferences and created a stunning, flawless makeup look that felt tailored just for me.

Throughout the entire process, Louise's professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for my satisfaction were truly commendable. She made the experience calm, enjoyable, and stress-free, which was exactly what I needed on my wedding day. I cannot recommend Louise highly enough to anyone seeking a talented, versatile makeup artist who will bring their vision to life.
