The Best Hair Stylist I Could Have Asked For on My Wedding Day✨

I honestly can’t thank Nicole enough for everything she did for my wedding. From the very beginning she was so supportive, organised and genuinely excited to be part of such a special day for me.

Nicole did my hair for my wedding day as well as all of my bridesmaids, and she was absolutely amazing from start to finish. The morning of a wedding can sometimes feel a bit hectic, but Nicole brought such a fun, uplifting energy with her that it instantly put everyone at ease. She really brought all the good vibes, kept everyone smiling and laughing, and made the whole getting-ready experience feel so special and memorable.

She worked so hard to make sure every single person’s hair looked perfect, and the results were beautiful. My hair was exactly how I imagined it for my wedding day. Nicole really listened to what I wanted and used her experience to make sure it suited me and my overall look perfectly. I felt so confident and happy with it, and it stayed looking incredible all day and night.

Not only is Nicole incredibly talented at what she does, but she’s also such a lovely person. Having someone you trust and feel comfortable with around on such an important day makes such a difference. She creates such a relaxed, positive atmosphere and you can tell how much she genuinely cares about the people she works with.

Nicole isn’t just an amazing hair stylist, she’s also a wonderful friend, and I feel so lucky that she was the one who did my hair for such an important moment in my life. If you’re looking for someone who is incredibly talented, professional, and brings the best energy to the room, Nicole is the one.

The best bridal hairdresser!

Nicole has been my hairdresser for some years and I’m so glad I chose her as my bridal hairdresser! Nicole is so talented at what she does and takes so much pride in all of her hairstyles. She went above and beyond for me and my bridal party on my wedding day, and in the run up, answering all of my questions and offering support and advice. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day and Nicole played a huge part in that! She created two beautiful hairstyles for me, and all of my bridesmaids looked incredible. Nicole is very professional and attentive and I would recommend her to anybody! I wouldn’t have changed a single thing and can’t thank her enough!

Best bridal hairdresser I could ask for

Nic was absolutely amazing all throughout my wedding prep from the word go! It was a no brainier to decide to use Nic as she is my regular hairdresser too but it was the best choice I made. After changing my mind on style after the trial run, Nic managed to get me in soon after for another trial to fit my change of heart. My wedding morning was so relaxing knowing I was in safe hands. Single handedly, Nic perfectly created 6 updos plus 2 mothers of the bride/groom with no mad rush or panic. Great professionalism and also bringing laughs and great energy to what could have been a stressful morning. Would 100% recommend Nicole for anybody looking to book their wedding hair!

Amazing hair

Nicoles did a fantastic job with my hair and my bridesmaids hair and was a pleasure to have around on my wedding morning. She fitted right in with the group and we had a lot of fun and laughs during what could have been quite a stressful time.

Nic is the best, I had a few trials and each time she listened to my ideas and made changes so that it was exactly what I wanted on the day! I absolutely loved it. Each bridesmaid and flower girl had something special and different. Nic brings the music and the vibes and makes everyone feel amazing!

Bridal party hair

I cannot recommend Nicole enough !! She has done my hair a few times and I knew I had to have her style my bridal hair and my god did she smash it. Nothing is ever too much for Nicole and she goes above and beyond for every client ! Nicole did mine, my 4 bridesmaids and my mum and mother in law - every single one of us got exactly what we wanted and looked insane !!
Nicole stayed right up until before the ceremony to do last minute touch ups and made sure everyone’s hair was perfect !! She’s so bubbly and was so lovely to have around on the wedding morning !! Thank you Nicole !!! 🤍

Nicole was amazing !!

Nicole did my wedding hair and I honestly couldn’t have asked for more ! She styled my own, my mums and five bridesmaids hair on the morning of my wedding. Everyone loved their hair and Nicole was so kind, friendly and competent. She slotted straight in with the bridal party and worked efficiently alongside our makeup artist Emma. We all got ready smoothly and without any stress. I would definitely recommend Nicole to other brides !!

The most beautiful hair by the friendliest lady!

I booked Nicole for my bridal hair, two bridesmaids and my mother, and I'm so happy we went with her! I had a great trial, she responded to my preferences and kept checking in on me. I had no concerns on the day whatsoever cause I knew she'd do the same and it was a beautiful hairstyle, I couldn't have asked for anything else! Some of my bridesmaids knew what they wanted and some didn't, and they were all super happy with what Nicole did. My ceremony start time was 10am and I wondered if that would leave too little time for hair, but Nicole was really flexible and just made it happen. Honestly couldn't have asked for a better hair bridal stylist, the vibes were great and everybody's hairstyles were beautiful. Thank you Nicole!!

Nicole is the best wedding specialist out there!

I honestly can't thank Nicole enough – she was absolutely incredible from start to finish! She did my wedding hair, along with all of our bridesmaids, and every single style was perfect. She was calm, professional, and so lovely to have around on the morning of the wedding – exactly the kind of energy you want on such a big day.
Nicole made us all feel beautiful and completely at ease. She really listened to what we wanted, offered expert advice, and delivered beyond expectations. My hair stayed flawless all day (and night!) – even after a surprise wedding dance that I threw myself into, it didn’t budge! That alone says everything about how talented she is.

The bridesmaids couldn’t stop raving about how stunning their hair looked and felt. If you're looking for someone talented, reliable, and genuinely passionate about what they do – Nicole is your girl. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone getting married. She’s an absolute gem!

The Barr Wedding!

Nicole was amazing from start to finish!
Me and my maid of honour turned up to our trial with photos of what we may want for our hair. Nicole helped us decide on the style and got to work, both our hair trials were an exact replica of the photos we showed her, we left excited and confident that Nicole would create perfection on the day. Nicole turned up at the bridal lodge on the day of my wedding and instantly made me and my bridal party feel at ease! Laughs, general chit chat and advice. I felt so calm and relaxed with her around. On the day Nicole did mine, my MOH, my mum and sister in laws hair - she did an amazing job and everyone looked so beautiful! Even better than our hair trial. Nicole stuck around to help us get ready and I truly believe she made such a huge contribution to my happy and calm vibes!
I would highly recommend 🤍
Thankyou so so much! x

Just perfect!

I got married in August 2024 and Nicole came to our venue in Chester bright and early. She just made the morning run so smoothly! I had myself, 5 bridesmaids, my mum and my mother-in-law booked for hair, and everyone loved their styles. Nicole did such an amazing job!! She managed to fit in enough time to add my Nana on and this made her so happy! Our hairs stayed in all day, no movement or touch ups needed.
I absolutely loved my style - I had an updo and so many people commented on it. Nicole stayed a bit longer so she could help me out my veil in around my hair.
I can’t thank Nicole enough and couldn’t recommend her more🩷

The Most Talented and Calm Wedding Hair Stylist – Nicole is a Dream!

I cannot recommend Nicole highly enough! From the moment she arrived on the morning of my wedding, she brought such a calm and professional presence that instantly put me at ease. Nicole worked with incredible precision and creativity, transforming my hair into the most beautiful updo — elegant, detailed, and exactly what I had envisioned.

The intricate braiding and placement of the delicate hair accessory were flawless, and my hair stayed perfect all day and night. Nicole also styled the bridal party with the same care and attention, making sure everyone looked and felt amazing.

What really stood out was Nicole’s ability to tailor each look to suit us individually, all while keeping the morning running smoothly and stress-free. She was warm, patient, and genuinely lovely to have around on such a special day.

If you’re looking for someone who listens, delivers timeless, elegant styles, and brings a calming energy to your wedding morning — Nicole is absolutely the one. I feel so lucky to have had her as part of my day!

Nicole is the nicest hairdresser I have ever gone to, she is such a pure person, it was no brainer asking her to do my hair and my bridesmaids for my wedding last year, she takes so much pride in her work and it really shows! She brought her speaker with her to make sure we had music which she did not have to do but it’s a little thing that shows how much she enjoys her work! She brought energy and good vibes which is exactly what I needed during the long awaited morning, my hair was unbelievable and my bridesmaids absolutely loved her and the work she did, I couldn’t recommend her enough and will recommend her to anyone and everyone, thank you for the amazing job to did🫶🏽
