Bridal Hair and Make-Up with Amanda

Amanda did my hair and make-up alongside my 2 bridesmaids for my wedding in October 2024. She was so fab at the make up trial, we were more than happy to choose Amanda for our special day and were thrilled that Amanda was happy to travel to us for this.

Amanda arrived early to our venue and remembered all of the special requests and preferences for our hair and make up. She didn’t mind at all when we changed our mind about a few things and she was such a calming influence on our morning. Amanda is such a kind and friendly person and made sure that our make up and hair were absolutely perfect before the ‘I do’s’. We are so glad Amanda was part of our bridal prep!

Prior to the wedding day, both Amanda and Helen were so organised and thorough. They kept in contact in the run-up to the wedding and promptly replied to any queries and last minute niggles before the big day.

We really couldn’t fault Lipstick & Curls and would thoroughly recommend them to any soon-to-be brides or for other make-up and hair services. Thank you for making me feel beautiful on my wedding day! :)

Glowy, natural results + great presence

We hired Goshka from Lipstick and Curls for our 2 day wedding. She did the makeup and hair for my mum and me for our western ceremony, and then my makeup and hair for our South Asian ceremony. Goshka was really personable and made me feel relaxed and excited on both big days. She did a great job balancing making sure I looked dramatic enough to befit the occasion, while still making sure I looked like myself! Word of advice: We budgeted 1/2 an extra hour both days in case of unexpected snafus, transit issues, etc, and were glad to have done it. The hair and makeup lasted all night, through dancing and eating and many hugs. My mum was also happy with her results. For Day 2: Goshka was game to try pinning together my elaborate South Asian bridal outfit and the hairstyle needed to support it. We asked for help from the specialist makeup person my in-laws had hired, which was really useful - make sure you have a strong game plan because those outfits are difficult! Communications with Lipstick and Curls were smooth throughout the process, and we have absolutely no regrets. Thank you Goshka for everything!

Beautiful Vintage Styling and a Calm, Supportive Presence

Ema from Lipstick & Curls was amazing on our wedding day. She was so efficient and professional, while also making everyone feel special and beautiful. She created the perfect vintage look for me, exactly as I had hoped, and it lasted perfectly throughout the day.

What stood out most was how she set the right tone for the morning — calm, supportive, and reassuring at a time when I was feeling very nervous. Having her there made such a difference, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Perfect hair and makeup!

I was so happy with the service I received from Lipstick and Curls! I felt absolutely amazing on the day thanks to Lucina, and a slight hiccup with the artist I'd originally booked (completely outside of anyone's control) was sorted quickly and with no fuss before the big day. I was so happy with how the entire bridal party looked and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Lipstick & Curls (and Lucina!).

Incredible artists!!

Goshka and her assistant Diana were nothing short of miracle workers! My wife and I are a queer couple and both Goshka and Diana were not only incredibly capable, they were both fabulously kind, considerate, and professional.

Their range for their makeup and hair styling was also very impressive. They styled my shorter more butch hair very well and made sure both my hairpiece and veil stayed put. For my wife, who has much longer and wavier hair, they ensured her curls stayed bouncy and gorgeous all day and night long which is usually quite a struggle to achieve.

They also together took very good care of our bridesmaids and mother of the bride. They worked swiftly and with great care, and everyone looked fantastic even across several different hair types and complexions. We really can't thank Lipstick and Curls enough, and you would be in excellent hands by choosing them.

Thank you Goshka!

Lipstick and Curls provided a brilliant service from start to finish. They really listened to what I needed and matched me with the lovely Goshka. I was quite nervous about the process as I rarely wear make up but Goshka was super patient and flexible, willing to try different things or use my own products. On the day she was the perfect calm and reassuring presence and the bridal party were all thrilled with their hair and make up. Thank you again Goshka.

Madalina & Zhanna were great!

We had two artists on the day, and both were punctual, flexible, and incredibly friendly. Helen and Amanda from the bookings team were quick to respond, super helpful with all my questions, and made organising my wedding an absolute breeze. I’d recommend them without hesitation - 100%!

Brilliant service

Helen was such a star behind the scenes—super responsive, organised, and so helpful throughout the whole process.
She made scheduling everything a breeze and was always quick to reply to any questions or changes, which made planning so much less stressful.
The makeup artists (Madalina and Di) were incredibly talented and me and my bridal team absolutely loved our make up. It was a very hot day, yet our make up stayed fresh the whole time.
Thank you for making the logistics so smooth and for being such a kind, calm presence throughout! Everything ran like clockwork thanks to you.

Wonderful Makeup and Hair with Madalina!

Madalina did my makeup and hair for my wedding in June, and I truly can’t recommend her enough! She was professional, warm, and so talented, from the trial to the big day. I had a glowy, fresh look with rosy/peachy tones, and soft, modern waves in mind, which I shared in a moodboard. Madalina really understood what suited my features (especially my eyes 🥰) and nailed the foundation shade and eye makeup!

On the day, she recreated the look perfectly, and it was even better than I imagined and looked beautiful in both natural light and photos! I felt elegant, radiant, and still like myself!

Huge thanks also to Helen and Amanda for their help, especially on such short notice!

Absolutely amazing!!

Ah where to begin! From day one communication has been incredible. The team were wonderfully patient and understanding given my unique and changing requests and went above and beyond.

Jane did my lovely sisters makeup and hair at short notice and did a wonderful job. She looked absolutely radiant! Jane was so personable and accommodating to her needs.

Olga was absolutely incredible, she is an amazingly talented artist and took so much time and care to make sure that we felt as beautiful as possible. Her calming presence was so welcome on the wedding morning. Her communication was excellent through my two trials and overly detailed requests.

I cannot recommend Lipstick & Curls enough, Olga and Jane are absolute superstars.

Fantastic experience

Amanda and the rest of the team did an amazing job for our December 2023 wedding- I had a large bridal party (9 bridesmaids, no regrets) and all of the hair and makeup team did an incredible job making everyone feel gorgeous. We finished with time to spare! Amanda made me feel comfortable and listened to every step of the way. Thanks so much again!

Very good service

Booking with Lipstick and Curls for my big day was very easy and everything went smoothly. Had a trial for both hair and make up to make sure all went well on the wedding day. Katie was very professional and did a great job! I've got a lot of compliments from the guests :)
