Listened to what I wanted
Victoria was lovely and calm from the messages trial to the wedding which really puts you at ease, I don’t know much about makeup so she was able to help me with advice on what would suit my face best but I knew what style I wanted and she was the first person through the whole wedding planning experience that didn’t try and persuade me try different looks, I am very grateful for this.
She was always available to message when I had a question and on the big day she did a beautiful job, I felt like I was stil myself, just a more beautiful version. The look lasted all day. Thanks again.

Couldn't believe it was me
Victoria is a lovely person, great in communication and getting back to you straight away.
I was the Maid of Honour for a friend and Victoria did a stunning job on my hair and makeup. When Victoria showed me the back of my hair I couldn't believe that was my head ha ha. It was lovely to meet Victoria she did a fantastic job done.
Thank you so much I had so many compliments. I would definitely recommend.

Beautiful hair really pleased
Victoria was great work really hard on our hair. Was really pleased with how my hair turn out. My mum and the bridesmaids were very pleased with theirs too. Good communication and a lovely lady to talk too.

Absolutely amazing

Exactly what I wanted. Perfect x
I spoke to a few mua's on the phone before deciding to make the final choice. Victoria came across as sweet and friendly. The trial went great, I asked for natural and thats what I got. We chnaged a few things but thats what a trial is all about. On the day she arrived on time, and cracked on with it. Myself, my mum, sister and my flowergirl. All completed on time and in a professional manner. Not distracted by all the chaos around her! It was all so relaxed and just perfect. She stayed right until I was literally walking out of the door to touch up any final bits. And it all stayed put all day 🥰
Thankyou so much x

Excellent! Really natural look, lovely person and professional
I'm really happy that I booked Victoria for my wedding for both my hair and makeup. She took time to make sure I was happy with my trial and helped me feel relaxed. She also did the hair for my 8-year old junior bridesmaid and made her feel really special. I loved my hair and makeup and felt beautiful but still really natural.

Amazing! Highly recommend Victoria
Victoria was amazing - did the makeup and hair for our wedding and was brilliant from start to finish. She was so relaxed and in tune with what everyone wanted. I literally didn’t touch my hair or make up all day and felt amazing. Could not recommend more! Thank you so much.

Wedding makeup
I've never had my makeup done professionally, so decided as it was a special occasion I'd treat myself. Victoria is friendly, approachable and put me at ease. She takes great pride in her work and made sure I was happy at every point and went above and beyond. Would definitely recommend.

Professional and supportive from the very start.
I contacted Victoria and she was very helpful straight away. As a bride with short hair I wasn't at all confident how to create a stunning look for my big day! Victoria messaged me quickly with photos of other short-haired bridal hairstyles, and reassured me that my hair would be great to style on the day. I also had to ask for unfragranced make up and hairspray as perfume often triggers migraines. Again, Victoria was extremely understanding and helped me choose the right mascara and fixing spray. It was lovely to meet Victoria for my bridal trial a few weeks prior to the wedding to try out the exact look I wanted. I was so impressed with Victoria's professional approach and appearance and felt completely at ease whilst she applied make up and styled my hair.
On the morning of the wedding Victoria arrived punctually at the venue and started styling my daughter's hair followed by my hair and make up. It was a beautiful, tranquil time in a glorious setting which helped me calm my nerves and feel ready for the ceremony.
I completely enjoyed my time with Victoria and cannot recommend her highly enough. She created the perfect look for me and I am very grateful for finding her and booking her services.

Victoria is just lovely!!
Given such a weird year, Victoria kept her communication with me and was totally flexible as we had to chop and change dates/times etc a few times and this wasn’t a problem for her.
From the off, Victoria was so lovely and made me feel very at ease (as I was nervous having never had my make up done before) and was very kind to try lots of different looks and listened to what I wanted.
Also - given covid, Victoria was completely set up with her PPE and everything was super clean.
On the day she was so lovely to my Mum and interacted with the girls and myself getting ready, so it felt like she was part of the day.
Highly recommend Victoria, she made me feel like a better version of me on the most wonderful day and I can’t thank her enough.

Fab hair and makeup!
So glad I chose Victoria to do my wedding hair and make up! From the initial conversation, through to the trial and then the big day, Victoria was fab - really communicative, helpful, very calm and most importantly great at the hair and makeup. I was so thrilled with the end result - it was absolutely perfect and everything I was looking for.
I know my Bridesmaids/Mum were just as happy with their looks and would thoroughly recommend Victoria to anyone, regardless of occasion/styles etc. It made a huge difference to how I felt on my wedding day, knowing that I loved my hair and makeup, and that’s thanks to Victoria!

Highly recommend
Victoria was amazing. So friendly and helpful with suggestions for hair and makeup. Me and my bridesmaids loved our hair and makeup on the day and couldn’t thank her enough. The makeup and hair lasted all night and was very reasonable. Would highly recommend her work.
