The 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!

Incredible, book her now!

I absolutely loved my makeup and the whole wedding morning with Sophie. She is amazing at what she does and I honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. It felt like my hair and makeup suppliers were an extension to my bridal party.

At my initial trial I only had one request - I want to look like myself! This was never in doubt and Sophie made sure that I left happy discussing whether there was anything we wanted to tweak for the big day.

Nothing was too much for Sophie and everything went without a single problem on the big day even though there were 7 faces to get camera ready!

If you’re thinking of booking then I would 100% recommend you do so!

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 xxxx

The absolute best!

From first contact, to the trial and then to the wedding day Sophie has been amazing throughout! Sophie did make up and hair for myself and two bridesmaids this weekend and everything was perfect for us. Sophie is a very talented and knowledgeable hair and make up artist, answered all my questions and querries via email promptly before the day. At the trial and on the day that knowledge and talent really shone through! Sophie is warm, friendly, passionate and appraochable qualities that are so important for such a big day. Professional from day one but could also have a bit of a laugh and joke which puts you at ease. Sophie I am so pleased I found you for my wedding! If you are looking for bridal hair and makeup myself and my bridemaids highly recommend Sophie! Book Sophie and you will not be dissapointed.
Thank you for all you hard work Sophie xx😊

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!!

Outstanding

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!

Wonderful Hair & Make Up Artist

Booked Sophie for my wedding recently. Sophie put me at ease immediately. She was more than accommodating when my mum took over my trial and offered me a second trial. On the say, she was very professional but also very friendly. Her and her assistant Collette were both brilliant with myself and my bridesmaids. One bridesmaid even said she was happy for Collette to do her hair anytime! Really good naturally enhanced make up.

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.

Everything I could wish for in a make up artist

Sophie was super lovely and talented from start to finish! Myself and my bridal party are all so particular over our make up and Sophie made all 6 of us look stunning with high quality make up! With myself having previously worked as a make up artist I am so fussy over my make up and getting that perfect finish which is flawless, natural and unique. Sophie fulfilled all my wishes without any awkwardness, it felt like I was talking with a friend whenever I saw Sophie as she is so supportive and friendly. Sophie was so happy and open to any alterations or feedback I had and that was very important to me given she was going to be giving me my face for the most special day of my life. I will always recommend Sophie as a make up artist!!

Would 100% recommend

SJ was wonderful, I loved my trial and my wedding hair and makeup. SJ made me feel special and listened to my ideas before carrying them out beautifully. I had all my bridesmaids and mother getting hair done on the day as well as my hair and makeup so it was a lot and I worried if everything would be completed in time but it was and everyone was over the moon with their finished result!

Amazing friendly, professional service. BEAUTIFUL make up

Sophie did the most beautiful job on my bridesmaids for my wedding. Stunning classic make up.
She took time out of her busy schedule to research about a foundation I loved that had been discontinued.
My sister really lacks confidence in her looks due to being bullied for many years. Sophie made her look & feel just so beautiful.
Her kindness was never forgotten, so much so my sister used her for her own wedding.
If your looking for super natural, beautiful make up.
Sophie’s your girl xx
