  Bridesmaid make up and hair - Ellie Johnson

  Amazing experience with Laura! Hair wizardry to make my up do look so intricate! She also listened to how I like my make up and made me look like me still but a better version! Couldn’t recommend enough!

  Best hair and make-up artist I could have hoped for!

  Laura made me feel sooooo me and so beautiful on my wedding day! She listened to all the little things I said I liked and didn’t like! She brought the energy and made us all feel like we’d known her for years. I felt soooo good all day and I’ve never known make-up to look that good over 12 hours later! I feel so lucky that I had Laura as my hair and make up artist!

  Amazing service from Laura!

  I loved getting to know Laura in the run up to my wedding day! She was so relaxed and we had a right giggle, all whilst she created my dream look for the day. We did two trials and Laura kindly travelled to me which was such a luxury. My hair is incredibly thick and Laura never made it feel like an issue; instead she gave me lots of options and I ended up with something I absolutely loved. I really wanted to feel like me on the day, and Laura completely got that and ensured my makeup was just the right amount of soft glam whilst highlighting my best features. I felt beautiful and Laura was such a calming presence on the day- adding to the fun of the whole experience! She is brilliant at what she does- I am so pleased I chose Laura for my day!

  Lovely and professional

  Laura was amazing to have with me the morning of my wedding. She had put together a great time schedule for me and my bridesmaids, making sure everyone felt there was enough time for them, and without rushing us out the door. She is incredibly pleasant and helped me get the right look, taking my feedback into account and made quick changes. I felt heard and we quickly found the best look for me. I never had any issues waiting for replies from her. She only uses products that are vegan and cruelty free, which meant a lot to me. I would 100% recommend Laura to anyone who wants a professional, skilled, and lovely hair and makeup stylist with them on their wedding day.

  Amazing experience from start to finish

  I booked Laura off her reviews, I loved her style and the fact she used Cruelty Free products.
  The booking process was easy and quick and she was super communicative which is crucial. She explained how we would work together to create my dream look.
  When the day if the trial arrived I was so excited and Laura greeted me with a warm smile and a fab cup of coffee.
  We discussed my likes, dislikes. I bought along my inspo picture, we discussed which bits would work and which bits to avoid because if my age with the fine lines and wrinkles. She worked with my tones and eye colour. The process was thorough and I was able to see each step of the way and say yay or nay. Her kits was clean and tidy and her brushes were spotless
  After the trial I was asked to give feed back on how the makeup held, this is a great idea as she doesn't know how my skin behaves etc, she's not a witch! She said there is always a plan b, I just needed to let her know.
  
  The lead up to the day was fab, she sent me a text the night before and on the day Laura was a bundle of energy to get us all up and ready. When the time came, Laura knew I was nervous and she did an excellent job of keeping me calm. My makeup was stunning, the best I've felt, ever. It lasted so well, in fact I slept in it and wore it for breakfast!! I was touched by her gift to, which is a lovely and I use it most days!
  I would whole heartily recommend Laura, she amazing at what she does.
  Thank you!!

  Recommend 100%

  Laura is absolutely fantastic. I initially contacted her through Hitched as I was looking for someone who could do my hair and makeup for two days - wedding ceremony and then the party the next day. I also chose her as she specialises in Vegan and cruelty-free makeup, which is super important to me.
  From the first moment of contact I knew I’d made the right decision. Laura booked me in for the Friday (ceremony) then worked out that she could come straight from another wedding on the Saturday (party) to do my evening hair and makeup. She arranged another fab colleague, Gemma, to do my bridal party hair and makeup.
  The bridal trial was SO fun, we immediately chatted like old friends and she gave me exactly what I had pictured. She also gave me great skincare tips which I became obsessed with for the next few months before the wedding :-)
  On the ceremony day itself she arrived to my suite, a ball of happy energy. She chatted all the way through to me and my bridal party, and was nothing but lovely, kind and professional.
  For our reunion on the party day, this time at my house, it was even better - as we’d not planned this “look” she went with my ideas, even incorporating my makeup after I did a quick dash up to my bedroom. She fussed my cat, and we continued our chats again!
  I cannot recommend Laura highly enough. As someone who's worked with a fair few hair and makeup professionals, she's been my favourite and I'm already planning my next event so I can hire her again.

  Amazing, friendly and professional service

  Laura was absolutely outstanding. I'm not a big makeup wearer and had never had someone do my makeup before and she totally put me at ease during the trial and made the morning of the wedding an absolute delight. So much so that I was a bit bummed when we realised it was time for me to leave!
  
  She was super professional but also incredibly easy to get along with and very funny, helping keep me sane on a bit of a nervous morning!
  
  My makeup was perfect throughout the day, and lasted so well into the evening and beyond. Hair updo was super secure, with tousled curls staying in place.
  
  I'd had a look at her previous work before booking and I have to say whilst I thought her work looked great, she actually far exceeded my expectations - I've never looked so good! Couldn't recommend more.

  Hi Heather
  
  Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review and also send me the link to your gorgeous photos. Your kind words mean so much to me.

  Wonderful!

  From the first time I met Laura at my trial, I knew she would make me look and feel like an actual princess on my wedding day! She filled me with complete confidence. I have very dry skin and psoriasis and Laura was able to recommend a skincare regime that literally transformed the skin on my face. In my whole adult life, I have honestly never had such soft skin.
  On the wedding day, Laura was such a lovely and fun presence. She did hair for my bridesmaids and they all looked amazing! I couldn’t have been happier with the way I looked. My hair was better than I had imagined and my makeup was beautiful and yet I didn’t feel caked in make up. I would thoroughly recommend Laura to anyone, she is amazing!
