Amazing experience

Rachel is so professional and friendly. I would recommend her to anyone looking for wedding hair and/or makeup. During my trial she really listened to my preferences and created 3 gorgeous styles - so hard to choose! On the day she was super chilled and relaxed which made the morning really enjoyable. She did both my hair and gorgeous makeup as well as hair for 3 bridesmaids, make up for 3 members of the bridal party too. Super woman!
Thank you again Rachel - I had so many compliments on my hair and makeup (which lasted the entire day and still looked amazing!!) and I felt so special on my day. Trina. x

Fantastic wedding hair and makeup artist

Rachel did my hair and makeup for my wedding, as well as hair for my mum and five bridesmaids - a lot to fit into one morning, but Rachel made it so fun and stress free. She listened to what each of us wanted and made recommendations in line with this, and everyone looked beautiful! Would highly recommend Rachel for your big day :)

Fantastic experience

Rachel is fantastic, she is so lovely and made the morning feel so relaxed. Rachel did hair and make up for me, Mother of the bride and the three bridesmaids and we were all so pleased with how we looked. I had a trial a few weeks before the wedding and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you so much!

Beautiful hair and make up, professional and friendly service

I booked Rachel to do my bridal hair and make-up, make-up for my 4 bridesmaids and hair and make-up for my mum. It was a big job for one person and she was fantastic! Super friendly but with a laidback, calming presence, which was exactly what I needed whilst full of nerves on my wedding morning! Everyone looked beautiful and she was really accommodating of requests, whilst also making suggestions of what would work best. I would definitely recommend Rachel!

Creative and reliable stylist

Rachel did hair and beauty for myself, two bridesmaids, a flower girl and my mum on the morning of my wedding. My mum was a very last minute addition but Rachel squeezed her into the schedule and still left us with plenty of time in the morning. She was brilliant at listening to what each of us wanted and the hair/make-up was fantastic. I'd 100% recommend.

Amazing wedding hair and MUA

Rachel did my bridal hair and makeup and hair for all my bridesmaids and my mum. From the moment I met Rachel for my bridal trial, she was amazing to work with. She made me feel so relaxed and comfortable, whilst creating my dream hair and makeup! Rachel created exactly what I wanted and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better on my special day! Thank you Rachel! Xx

Christine's wedding

I could not have been happier with Rachel on my wedding day, 25/08/2016. She did hair and make up for myself (Bride), 4 Bridesmaids and both Mothers. I had two trails for my hair, after changing my mind, and Rachel was great in helping me create the perfect look for me, I felt and looked amazing. Bridesmaids and Mothers were equally happy and looked stunning too.
Rachel arrived on time, (7am, an early start!), and had a great calming effect on us all, she was organised and everything went according to plan, I cannot recommend Rachel enough for hair, make up, or both.
She will definitely be a great asset to making your day run smoothly and creating your perfect look.

Kathryn's Wedding

Rachel arrived promptly and did a fantastic job sorting out hair and make up for all three of us, myself and two Bridesmaid's. We'd had a practice run prior to the event where six or seven styles were attempted effortlessly so the right one could be selected for the big day. I couldn't be more thrilled with the results and the hair stayed up and the make up didn't need any touch ups. I would thoroughly recommend Rachel for Wedding day hair and make up, we all got exactl what we wanted, with the embelishment and advice of an expert with an excellent eye. Rachel made me and my family feel at ease and she finished the getting ready part of the day perfectly. - Kathryn

Laura's Wedding

Rachel did mine and my Bridesmaid's hair on my Wedding day. I changed my mind with what I wanted last minute, but it wasn't a problem and did everything I asked for perfectly. - Laura

Amy's Wedding

I can not thank Rachel enough for making me feel so special on my wedding day.
My hair and make up was absolutely perfect as well as my sisters and my mums.
I was very worried (as I have a full heavy fringe) how a hair up style would work with a tiara, but Rachel did an amazing job, it felt very secure all day and night.
A very friendly and professional approach I felt relaxed and in good hands. - Amy

Leah's Wedding

Rachel did my hair for my wedding and I couldn't have been happier with the results. We had a trial run a few weeks before and I took a photo along with me of the style I wanted, Rachel replicated the style perfectly and we took some photos so that I could be sure that it was right from every angle. Rachel was happy to try a couple of other styles too. On the big day Rachel was brilliant, lovely and calm. Rachel's attention to detail and proffesionalism meant I didn't have any concerns about my hair and I could concentrate on enjoying the big day. I could not recommend her highly enough and will always be thankful for her hard work. - Leah
