Amazing Artist / Amazing Person
Where to even begin!! Sophie and her team were amazing from start to finish doing hair and makeup for me and my bridal party. Sophie wasn’t phased by us having two ceremonies (Indian and Civil) in a single day. As someone who isn’t used to wearing a lot of makeup (or styling my hair), she made me feel like the best version of myself from the zoom call, to the trial, to the day itself, she was hyping me up all the way through.
It goes without saying that Sophie is a total pro at hair and makeup (I looked just as fresh at 1AM as I did when she’d just finished!), but I was also so grateful for her presence on the morning of my wedding. She helped calm my nerves, kept us on time and just went above and beyond, even helping me fit my scarf for my Indian wedding when I was having a meltdown about how to do it.
Sophie - you are wonderful at what you do but also a wonderful human, I’m so lucky you were part of our wedding day! I could not recommend you more.
Much love xxxxSophie Jakeman's reply:

Professional, friendly, down to earth women! With a passion for her job!
I followed Sophie on social media and flicked through the pictures of hair and makeup she had already done for other brides.
I remember screen shorting her bio and sending it to my bridesmaids and in the bio is read something like natural dewy makeup which is of course what I was after.
Finding a makeup and hair artist in one who was amazing at there was job made mine easier.
I went for my makeup trail and anything I loved/wasn’t keen on she instantly changed until I was 100% happy! No questions asked.
Sophie is a friendly and professional women who replied quickly to any questions I had.
Sophie would often post on her social media about hair and makeup prep and what products she uses which I did end up buying and loving.
She recommended what hair extensions to buy on the big day and what colour and I did exactly that! They are beautiful.
On the big day I had 5 bridesmaids and myself all for hair and makeup. Sophie brought in another hairdresser for my bridesmaids as there was a few of us. The girls new how to have a laugh and just be so social with the bridesmaids and myself and when the photographer and videographer arrived it was just a laugh!
There was no rushing or stressing and when it was time to get into my dress, Sophie went the extra step to help me get into mine and to make sure all was perfect. She waiting whilst photos and videos were being taken and is just someone anyone would love to have as basically a stranger on what is the biggest day of your lives! Extremely happy with the service. The makeup. The hair. Everything!! -

Sophie is incredible as her job. Not only do you look and feel amazing, your hair and make up remains completely flawless all day and night - even after dancing for hours! Her advice and communication from the first contact is brilliant. Her calming nature helps your wedding morning flow amazingly - She is exceptional! -

Ashleigh D. Sent on 15/08/2023The Best Hair and Makeup Artist!
Where do I even begin… Sophie was amazing start to finish. From the phone consultation to the trial and finally to the wedding she was absolutely incredible!! She was so relaxed and listened to everything that I wanted and liked and made suggestions to help me decide. She does the most beautiful naturally enhanced makeup you have ever seen! I didn’t even know I could ever look that beautiful! We ended up changing my hair on the wedding day from what we had done at the trial but this was no problem for Sophie and the finished article was stunning! She wasn’t just a hair and makeup artist she felt like she was part of the bridal party and she was the most calming influence on the day and helped with my nerves! Also a big thank you to Amy who came with Sophie to help do the bridesmaids, my mums and my daughters hair. She was so amazing with my little girl and everyone’s hair looked amazing.
Everyone was ready in plenty of time and Sophie and Amy kept us all on track. I can’t thank you enough and would highly recommend you to anyone wanting a hair and makeup artist! I only wish you could do my hair and makeup everyday! Pick SJFaces and you won’t be disappointed! -

Very Talented Artist!
Right from our first chat, Sophie made me feel at ease. She gave me advice on skincare after hearing what I did at the time and listened to my ideas. At the trial, I was feeling a little bit nervous but she put me at ease. As soon as she has finished, I couldn’t believe how beautiful she had made me look and I knew straight away that I’d definitely made the right choice. On the day itself, she arrived promptly and got set up straight away. Starting with my mum who has never had her hair and make up done before, she really eased her nerves. She worked quickly but efficiently with us all and even helped me with my veil at the end. I was really getting nervous and Sophie is so friendly and down to earth that she calmed me down just like a friend would.Sophie Jakeman's reply:
