    Such a sweet, calm and flexible artist to work with!

    Nadezdha did such an amazing job with all of us and she was especially great with my mum, even though she was unsure since she doesn't really wear much makeup. My mum trusted her and once she was all dressed and had her hair done she was over the moon and she looked absolutely beautiful!

    Also, I can't thank her enough with my hair, I had lost a lot of hair even between my trial and the wedding day and it was something I was really self conscious of. She did such a lovely job with my curls and I really couldn't have asked for a better hair and makeup stylist for my big day.

    Both my mum and sister kept saying how sweet and lovely she was and I couldn't agree more. Thank you so much for everything!

    Relaxed, fun and so good at what she does!

    I wanted someone relaxed that was fully capable (because I know absolutely nothing about hair and makeup). Nadezhda knew exactly what styles amd colours would suit me, she asked for my thoughts on everything and had such helpful advice from her experiences. We had a really fun trial and then on the day she turned up on time, dealt with all our last minute timing changes and my last minute changes to my look. I loved everything she did to my hair and makeup - so natural yet somehow glamorous. Most importantly for me, Nadezhda contributed to the laughter, dancing and special atmosphere we had before the ceremony.

    Wedding hair dream brought to life!



    Having had around 8-10 hair trials with another hair dresser, we just weren’t achieving the look I was aiming for: Hollywood glam. Sleek, perfect and photo ready hair. The image I had in mind, perfected complemented my dress, the venue and the look I was hoping to create.

    My make up artist recommended Nadezhda, and she really was my last chance. At this point, I’d already twice blown my hair and make up budget, but felt (in my gut) that I could get the hair I wanted, if I found the right stylist.

    I connected with Nadezhda, had some text exchanges and sent over images. We had a brief video call prior to my appointment where I could share more about the style I was looking to achieve .
    From the moment we spoke, I knew I was in safe hands. At my trial appointment, it was clear she had researched my type of hair (long, thick, corse, wavy/curly, and lots of it) and selected hair type and style type products that would help us create the look.

    Throughout the appointment, I found her to be calm, engaging, friendly and professional. She put me at ease.

    At the end of the trial my hair was stunning. It looked every thing I’d hoped for.

    Towards the end of the day, my hair had dropped a little. Importantly, Nadezhda had asked me to update her on how it had held over the day, so I felt able to make contact and share it had dropped a little.

    Without hesitation, Nadezhda invited me back for a further trial. I went along the following week and was blown away by the fact she had connected with industry peers for their input, and researched more products to try, ensuring I got a look I loved and that stayed the duration of the wedding.

    This was, for me, the moment that sealed the deal. She had put so much attention and thought into getting my hair right, and I felt that I was her priority.

    I left my second appointment and my hair was immaculate! It held the entire day, evening, next day and into the day after!

    On my wedding day, Nadezhda was incredible. On time, kind, professional, engaging. She blended in perfectly with the MUA and it was wonderful to have her on my team of 5* suppliers.

    My wedding day hair was WOW! She achieved my dream look. Not only did she perfect this for me, she made sure that every strand of hair was in place, secured and photo ready.

    Do not hesitate to book a trial with Nadezhda. I can’t recommend her highly enough!

    She not only saved the day with my hair, she was a wonderful person to have in my room whilst getting ready and made me, and my bridesmaids comfortable.

    Thanks so much!

    Thank you Nadezhda!

    I booked Nadezhda for hair and makeup for my wedding in June and she was AMAZING! During our first consultation over video chat, she was friendly and very reassuring. She was able to confidently tell me about her services and especially specialised in natural makeup styles. She made me feel so at ease and I felt so comfortable booking with her. I had a trial at her salon in Cheltenham, and we talked through the styles I liked, and I showed her some inspiration pics too. I was so happy with the outcome! On my wedding day, she was able to cater to myself, my sisters and my mom and we were all so happy with the outcome. She has the loveliest personality, and it is obvious that she cares about her clients. She made my day so special, and I couldn't thank her enough! If you are looking for a makeup/hair stylist who will work with you to achieve your desired look, recommend great products for your skin, and makes you feel so comfortable, I would fully recommend Nadezhda!

    Thrilled with my wedding make up!

    It was an absolute pleasure to have Nadezhda do mine and my daughters wedding make up. She did a wonderful job and made me feel very calm and relaxed on the morning of the wedding. Nadezhda was very well prepared and we were both thrilled with the look she created and would highly recommend her to others.

    Their hair and make up stayed in place all day!

    Nadhezda and her lovely assistant came to work on my mum and 4 bridesmaids on my wedding day. I unfortunately couldn't have my own hair and make up done as my budget wouldn't allow. However this did not reflect on her professionalism or talent. The girls looked beautiful and their hair and make up stayed in place all day! So friendly and profeasional and would highly recommend !
