TESTIMONIALS


GEMMA

I couldn't recommend Nicola enough, it was lovely to spend time with her when she did my daughter's and niece's hair, and my hair and makeup for my Hallowedding on 31st Oct (of course!). She nailed exactly what I wanted and took such care and time with everything, both at the trial and on the day itself. Made me look and feel like a gothic Disney princess 😉 for my autmnal wedding! 😍 Love ya Nicola! 🖤 💚 xx

HANNAH

Nicola was an absolute star.

From our trial, she made me feel totally at ease. She came to do my trial on a friend’s wedding day, being responsive to my ideas whilst bringing in her professional knowledge. She was also fun, friendly and enthusiastic, meaning I got a great chat whilst being made up.

On the big day, Nicola made me feel like a princess. She changed the style to meet my longer hair, and worked with me to give me a a look which totally suited my dress and style.

Nicola and her team also made my bridesmaids look fantastic! They already were stunning, ofc, but the added shine was greatly appreciated by all.

I couldn’t imagine choosing anyone else and am so glad Nicola could be a part in my big day. Thank you millions

EMMA

Nicola was so wonderful, even rolling with some unexpected venue problems on the day!
She did my hair and makeup as well as my bridesmaids, mom and mother-in-law. She and her assistant were great from the start and the getting ready process ran so smoothly there was even time for a cheeky drink before the wedding
Everyone looked so great and their best features were highlighted.
The make up stayed all day and photographed beautifully. I got so many compliments- particularly on my hair!
Thank you so much for everything Nicola.

HAYLEY

Nicola is awesome at what she does! Nicola did my hair for my wedding and it was gorgeous! I had so much fun meeting her for my hair trial and when it came to the big day she knew exactly what she was doing and made me feel gorgeous! She also did the hair of my three bridesmaids and our two moms and we all looked and felt fabulous. My hair looked great all night and there was lots of jumping around and dancing and my up do didn't budge. Thank you so much Nicola!

YUKJIN

I came across Nicola on her website and loved her makeup looks. I immediately contacted Nicola and was thrilled to hear that she was available for my wedding day!

We arranged for a trial run. I had photos of some hair and makeup looks I had in mind. Nicola was experienced with doing Chinese wedding hair style with accessories and was so so happy with the results - that I booked her for my big day straight away!

Nicola was efficient, professional and friendly. She made me feel relaxed with her stories about her travels and teaching. It sure made me reminisce about our past experiences. Her skills were wonderful, she listened to every detail and she showed up to my trial and the wedding day venue well before schedule.

I even booked Nicola to do my mum’s hair and makeup on the day, my mum doesn’t normally wear makeup and keeping it natural with the soft curls made her look amazing! Thank you so so much! ❤️


LISA

Nicola recently did my hair for my wedding and she was great! Nicola was on time and was bubbly and friendly and a real pro. She did my hair and my bridesmaid’s as well as my mom and sister’s hair and they all looked gorgeous! I found her prices to be really reasonable and the styles held their shape despite some vigorous head banging at the after party! I would definitely use Nicola again 😁

Joanna

Nicola was fantastic, she made me feel at ease and I loved my wedding look. It all lasted very very well on a humid June day.

DAWNN: Nicola kindly did my hair and make up on 24.11 for a Christmas party. She arrived early, which was really handy as I was on a bit of a schedule, and set up quickly. I didn't really know what I wanted done for my hair-do but Nicola was able to guide me and was really flexible - it looked fantastic and lasted until well into the next day!

I had more of an idea about what I wanted for my make up and Nicola did exactly what I was imagining. The make up she used was good quality, and it didn't feel like I was wearing any make up at all. I usually break out after I wear make up but my skin felt great, even after I removed the make up. Again, it stayed in place all night.

Nicola was really friendly and chatty, and we discovered we had gone to the same school :) She was only with me for 2 hours but it went really quickly! Thank you Nicola, I would definitely recommend you x

HOLLY

Nicky is an amazingly talented make-up and hair artist! She made me feel so glamorous on my big day and she did a wonderful job with my bridesmaids hair as well.

NATALIE

We were lucky enough to have Nicola as our hair and makeup artist for myself and my bridesmaids the other other week at our wedding. Nicola arrived promptly to set up (even though we had an early start!) and was cheerful throughout the whole time she was with us. She was just like another friend in our wedding party and we had a lot of fun with her. Not only that, I felt like she was on my side the whole time she was with me which is so important when you're getting ready for a big day. Thank you for being our friend Nicola, your work was wonderful but you made the experience a brilliant one!.

ELOSIE

Nicola did my hair and makeup in August for my wedding and she was so lovely. She really listened to my feedback during the trial which helped me decide on what I really wanted when I was a little unsure of what would suit me best.

She did my hair and makeup wonderfully for my day and I really can’t recommend her enough! She even changed my eye makeup on the day slightly to match what would go best with another lipstick I’d chosen last minute.

If I needed my hair and makeup done again in future I would choose her in a heartbeat.

AISHWARYA

Nicola was incredible doing hair and make up for my wedding. She made me and my bridesmaids feel absolutely fantastic on the day. I don't like wearing make up usually, and she was very considerate and particular in making sure the make up looked very natural. My hair including the pinned in veil, stayed in place for the whole wedding.

We had a jam-packed morning with 5 lots of hair and make up to do - she was on time, efficient, knew exactly what order to do each different thing and helped make the morning run smoothly. She even helped and gave us advise when we were doing my flower girl's hair. I would 100% recommend Nicola.

SARA

Simply the best! I was lucky enough to have Nicola doing my bridal party make up. Her make up is second to none, she totally understood the look I was after and nailed it. It also felt like we had a friend with us as Nicola is a lovely, funny person. I’ll be back

Victoria

Nicola was amazing! Everything from my bridal makeup trial, through to the big day was perfect. My bridesmaids looked beautiful and felt so comfortable working with Nicola, and I loved my makeup too. I'm so pleased we got to work together on my special day.

Georgina

Fantastic hair and make up artist. Nicola is lovely, friendly and professional. I had my make up and hair done by Nicola on my wedding day, I felt amazing, looked beautiful and it lasted all day.

Katie

Nicola made my wedding day so smooth. We had met before to check ideas and on the day she did hair and make up for me and my bridesmaids. Everyone looked wonderful and it was really relaxed and professional. Thank you very much!

Lisa

Nicola recently did my hair for my wedding and she was great! Nicola was on time and was bubbly and friendly and a real pro. She did my hair and my bridesmaid’s as well as my mom and sister’s hair and they all looked gorgeous! I found her prices to be really reasonable and the styles held their shape despite some vigorous head banging at the after party! I would definitely use Nicola again

Raveena

Thank you Nicola for doing my wedding hair. It was done beautifully and the way you arranged the flower pieces made it look so pretty. Cant recommend Nicola enough, she was always on time and so easy to get on with.

Demi

WOW what can I say! Nicola was incredible from start to finish. She spent ages trialling our different hair and make up styles and discussing them in depth with myself (a very indecisive bride). I was so in love with my Bridal make up and hair and all the bridal parties make up and hair. Nicola is so very talented and listened to exactly what we wanted. We really would recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much Nicola. You really did keep us calm and make us look beautiful! Thank you Demi

LORRAINE

Just wanted to say a big thank you for yesterday, Nicola! We all loved out hair and makeup. Mena said she’d never felt as good in years and I certainly felt the same too! I had so many compliments! Thanks again!

KATIE

Just sat in the airport thinking about the wedding and wanted to drop a message to say thank you ever so much. Everyone complimented me on my makeup but absolutely loved my hair! I felt so like myself all day and it was low maintenance. You were so calming and fun to be around in the morning. My hair and makeup lasted all day and was beautiful at the end of the night despite all the dancing!

REENA

Nicola was absolutely amazing! Not only a professional in what she does but a lovely lady too. The hair makeup she did for myself, my mum and my sister in law for my brothers engagement was flawless! We received so many compliments. Would definitely recommend Nicola!

LAURA

From the trial, I knew I was in the right hands with Nicola. Such a beautiful job on both make up and hair. I received compliments all day on my hair and makeup. My sisters looked completely knock out on the day too and I would 100% recommend Nicola for her stunning work, kindness and professionalism…

SHEILPA

Nicola was so wonderful on every level. She understood not only the style and needs of myself the bride, but my bridesmaids and my mum. She made us all look sensational but more importantly feel like a more beautiful version of ourselves. She was such fun to be around and made us all feel at ease. I trusted her opinion and expertise and only wish she could do my hair and makeup every day.

HELENA

I had a wonderful experience with Nicola doing my hair and make up for my mother and me on my wedding day. Nicola was very kind, enthusiastic and easy-going. We had a great time getting ready and I felt beautiful. Nicola really listened to what I wanted with both my hair and make up and was also able to give me advice and tips for making the make up last for the big day - which it did! I would really recommend her to anyone looking for delicate, natural make-up and hair.

EMMA

Nicola (and Rachael) did an amazing job of our hair & make-up for my wedding in July. We were blown away with how good we looked and I had so many compliments on the day. I would definitely recommend her to any future brides, you made us feel very special and looked after.

SARAH

I booked Nicola for my October 2021 wedding and she did wedding hair for myself and 6 bridesmaids.

Nicola was lovely and brilliant through the whole process she was quick to respond to enquiries and sorting out hair trials.

She is amazingly talented and completely got the vision I had for my wedding hair and hair for my bridesmaids. She made us all look incredible and I cannot thank her enough for making us all look so beautiful on my wedding day. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Nicola she is fabulous. Thank you xx

SARAH

From start to finish Nicola was absolutely fantastic. She listened intently during the trial and was so lovely it was like having an old friend with us.

On the wedding day she was more than happy for me to tweak a few things and made me feel beautiful. She was very calming and myself and bridesmaids had the best morning getting ready. Nicola also did the makeup of one of my bridesmaids and gave her exactly what she wanted. I would highly recommend Nicola.

I felt glam without the makeup feeling too heavy and as a woman with quite greasy skin I didn't break into a shine once, even on the dancefloor.

If you chose Nicola you will not be disappointed.

HELEN

My makeup and hair were perfect! I don’t wear a lot of make up and was nervous about looking completely different, however Nicola did a perfect job. I still looked natural, which is exactly what I wanted. My makeup and hair were perfect for my photos and lasted all day. Me and my friend really enjoyed the time with Nicola getting my hair and make up done before the wedding. 100% recommendation..

IMG_3256.JPG

LAURA

I would have no hesitation in recommending Nicola - she did the make up for bridesmaid, Mom and I at my wedding in September 2021 and we were all thrilled. She's an absolute joy to deal with - both at the trials, ahead of the wedding day and on the day itself. Thank you Nicola!

Nicola is extremely professional , very friendly & approachable . ..wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her for any time you want to look & feel like a million bucks

EVE

Nicola was amazing throughout; from my trial to my wedding day. She is so easy going and although I wasn't sure what look I wanted for my day, she put time and effort in to help me find the perfect look for me.
My bridesmaids all looked beautiful! She did their hair and make each to suit what look they personally wanted. I can't recomend Nicola enough!

NICOLE

Nicola was the hairstylist for my wedding. She was amazing from start to finish. Her communication was fantastic throughout the whole process, despite complications from covid!
On the day she fit right into my bridal party, put us all at ease and contributed to the atmosphere. She was on time, well prepared and highly skilled. We were all so pleased with our hair. Couldn't recommend her enough. Thank you Nicola!

LEANNE

I booked Nicola for my wedding hair and make- up, I had a large bridal party and this was no problem for her and Laura to manage on the day. She is very talented and was fantastic throughout the whole process, professional, quick to respond to emails and such a nice person.

When I had a disaster with my eyebrows a few days before the wedding, she calmed me down and easily made last minute changes to my makeup on the day. I felt so beautiful all day and received lots of compliments.

I cannot recommend Nicola enough to anyone looking for wedding hair and makeup. She was brilliant and made me and my bridesmaids look amazing. Thank you so much x

AMBER

From the trial to the wedding day Nicky did such an amazing job. On the day she did the makeup for me and my 4 bridesmaids. Everyone looked absolutely amazing and I have no hesitation for recommending her to anyone who needs their hair and makeup done. I received so many lovely comments on the day. Nicky was so thorough through the planning phase and answered all my questions which were either asked at the trial or asked via email, and I felt like no question was a stupid question. Can't thank you enough!

Nicola was amazing! She was on time, enthusiastic and really helped calm my nerves while getting ready. She completely knew what she was doing and the end result was perfect, just what I wanted. Couldn't recommend her more

KATIE

As soon as I met Nicola at a Wedding Fair I knew she was the one to do my make up & Hair for my wedding. She understood exactly what I visioned for the Bridal party and listened (rare in the wedding industry lol). She keeps in touch through the run up to the big day, for timings on the day, arranging a trial for Brides Hair and Make up and turns up well on time to get ready on the morning (essential). Nicola settled my nerves (& slight hangover) with her laid back calm attitude which is exactly what I needed. All timings were bang on time for all 5 bridesmaids, Mother of the Bride & Me (Bride) to get on our way. Nicola was so helpful whilst getting dressed, putting my veil on my hair and making sure I looked the part, she was wonderful to have around and apart of the morning.
All makeup used was top quality and knew exactly how to get the hairstyles I wanted perfect on the day. Endless compliments were given to me and my bridal party throughout the day, now looking at photos loved my makeup and hair so much and wouldn’t change a thing. Your a fantastic Hair & Make up artist & to have the personality to match 👌🏻 perfect! Lots of love to you xxx

ELLA

Nicola did my hair and make up for my wedding day last week. She and Laura made my bridesmaids and I look incredible and we all felt amazing. She is professional but at the same time really personable, friendly and great fun. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone looking for hair and make up services. From booking, to my trials, to the wedding day she was always quick to respond to emails and happy to discuss any questions with me. Absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much.

TORI

I wasn’t the most organised of brides so when I finally got round to looking for a makeup artist I found a lot of people to be booked up as our wedding day was a couple of days before Christmas. Nicola was recommended to me by another makeup artist and I am so pleased that she was!! I went for a trial and I immediately warmed to her. She had a very calm and relaxed approach which I really liked and she was open to different ideas. I booked her to do my makeup and my bridesmaids. On the day Nicola was the calm amongst the chaos in a room full of women and kids!! She was amazing. All of our makeup was perfect, everyone was thrilled and looked beautiful. She even came to the rescue of my sister in law and curled her hair after her hairdresser let her down. After a long day I was too tired to remove my makeup so I just went straight to bed. It still looked amazing the next day!! I would not hesitate to book Nicola again and I would definitely recommend her to anyone.

Nicola did my hair and make up and for my sister and mum as well. She is a lovely person and the best thing about her is she listened to what we wanted and did a great job accordingly. She also stayed back and helped me with my dress and veil which was really helpful. Thank you so much Nicola for everything on my wedding day!

For our wedding last weekend Nicola did the hair and make up for myself and my bridal party. We all looked absolutely stunning and I got so many comments about how lovely my hair was. Nicola was lovely through the planning process and I had a great trial, leaving me feeling comfortable and confident in the choice I had made. Thank you so much Nicky!

Nicola did my hair for my wedding on the 21.03.2020. She did an absolutely amazing job for me and my bridesmaids. I can't thank her enough for turning up during the crazy times we're living in and for being extremely professional. You also did an amazing job of putting up with me! I wish you the best of luck in the future and stay safe. x

Kate

I can't recommend Nicky highly enough. She spent time listening to what I wanted in terms of hair and make up and she really went the extra mile to make it happen. Nicky is highly skilled and created exactly what I wanted. She was amazing on the day, confirming before and arriving early - so no stress! She did hair for each of my bridesmaids and they loved what she did. Nicky is absolutely brilliant!

Thanks again Nicky, you were brilliant!

IMG_0626.jpg

Laura

I booked Nicky to make me, my sister and my mum look the bee's knees for my wedding last weekend. I also booked a trial the month before, which I would definitely recommend. Even though I decided last-minute to have a different hair style to what we'd discussed, it wasn't an issue; Nicky just made it happen.

My mum and sister were happy with their hair and makeup, and I received endless compliments on how I looked. My makeup even survived me bawling my way through the ceremony, which is quite something considering how tearful I was!

Nicky is a wonderful artist; she listened carefully to what we wanted, and is fun and easygoing to chat to. I'd highly recommend her to anyone getting hitched.

I can’t thank Nicola enough. She is so talented and passionate about what she
does and this is evident in the service she provides. She gave great advice and reassurance from the trial to the big day.
On the wedding morning, she set up and worked wonders, she was kind and calming and became part of the family! My makeup was perfect and she understood exactly what
I wanted. My bridesmaids and mum were so pleased with their hair and makeup too! Thanks again xx

Rachel

Nicola was brilliant both on the wedding day and at the trial. She really listened to what I wanted and was able to quickly change things up at the trial when I wasn't sure about my original request! The hair and makeup held up really well, despite it being a humid day and a predominantly outdoor wedding. Nicola was friendly, calming and down to earth - just what's needed on a nervy wedding morning! Thanks Nicky :)

Nicola was absolutely amazing. From my trial to the actual day, she did a perfect job on my make up and for my brides and mom. She made everyone feel relaxed, nothing was too much trouble and she really listened to what we all wanted. I hadn’t booked Nicola for my hair but she could see I was panicking and ended up doing that for me too at no extra cost. She really was a true superstar and I cannot recommend her enough. Just brilliant.

Like to say a big thank you to Nicola for doing my hair and make up on my wedding day. She made my bridal party and I feel at ease the whole morning and listened to what we wanted for our make up. Was really pleased with the final outcome, make up and hair lasted all day and looked nice in the photos. Very friendly and reliable. Would highly recommend Nicola.

Nicola did my hair and also my mum and Bridesmaids hair for my wedding day. Nicola was brilliant throughout and gave some helpful tips at the trial to prepare for the big day!

What can i say that hasn't already been said in other reviews, Nicola from the make up trial to the actual day was truly amazing, friendly and professional
On the day of the wedding Nicola arrived early which put me at ease. She went above and beyond to ensure that myself and my Bridesmaids hair and makeup was perfect.
I can't thank Nicola enough for making me feel so wonderful and beautiful on my wedding day.
I would definitely recommend and would use her services again in the future.

Nicola you are a wonderful talented lady x

Nicola did my bridal make up on my big day, and she was great. She made me feel comfortable and relaxed. On the trial day, she listened carefully to what I had in mind and she delivered exactly what she promised

Can’t recommend Nicola enough, such a lovely person and on top of her amazing talent she did me and 3 of my bridal party’s hair and makeup, always there for advice and support throughout the months before the wedding, amazing. Thank you so much!

Nicola is genuinely one of the kindest, attentive and most professional people you will ever meet. Not only that, she is a super-talented hair and make-up artist who made me and my bridal party look natural yet super glamorous on our big day. I’m so grateful to have been recommended her and really can’t recommend her highly enough. She deserves every success xxx

Cannot thank Nicola enough for doing mine and my bridesmaids hair and make-up on Saturday. She spent the morning with us, reassuring me and everyone that everything would go well! She was respectful and lovely and became part of the "getting-ready" tribe. Would recommend her to anyone wanting a calm and lovely relaxed artist for their wedding or event! Much love, Alex xxx

KATHRYN

Nicola was professional, friendly and efficient. She did a fantastic job on me and two of my bridesmaids, in spite of all the flapping about that was going on around her. She was also very kind to me while I was telling her I wanted one thing whilst meaning something else entirely and got the look bang-on on the day!

 

VICKY

Nicola recently did my wedding makeup and hair and my bridesmaids makeup. I would definitely recommend her to anyone. She really understood what I wanted and did an amazing job with my hair and makeup. She was so friendly and really helped me feel more relaxed on the morning of the wedding. She did a great job with the bridesmaids hair too and it definitely stood the test of time and lasted the full day and night. 100% reccomend to anyone thinking of booking!

 

LYNSEY

Nicola is truly the most talented makeup artist I have ever met twinned with her wonderful hair styling skills.
Nicola is a very responsive and kind lady, she was open to making recommendations as I wasn’t sure quite what would suit me for my wedding reception makeup and hair.
We spent time experimenting in my trial with different looks and she made me feel beautiful.
Nicola went above and beyond to achieve the perfect look and honestly I was astounded by the end result!
I never knew I could look as amazing as I did.
It’s safe to say my friends and family also agreed and I really did shine like a diamond
I would happily recommend anyone to Nicola who is in need of a makeup or hair superstar!
Also on a side note Nicola saved me really! My makeup artist I had booked let me down 2 weeks before my wedding reception was booked and I was devastated, I looked through Nicolas work and put an email together thinking it was far too short notice... Nicola managed to fit me in bless her soul and I spent my wedding reception looking for wonderful than I could have ever imagined
Thank you Nicola

CANDICE

I couldn't recommend Nicola highly enough! She did an amazing job of both hair and makeup for myself, my mum and maid of honour. The makeup was perfectly tailored to suit each of us, expertly applied, lovely and natural but also stayed on all day! And our hair was simply lovely - Nicola listened carefully to what we'd all like and we even changed my hair on the day to something completely different from the trial!! She didn't bat an eyelid though!

I was quite nervous on the morning as well but Nicola is so lovely and chatty that she completely distracted me. Thank you for a perfect job Nicola x

Nicola did a great job for my wedding last month- was really pleased with my hair and make up, and she was also friendly and easy to communicate with. Would thoroughly recommend!

I was recommended Nicola by someone and after the initial trial I knew I had found my hair and MUA! She was brilliant even when I could not make up my mind she was there to reassure me it was going to look great. On the day she not only nailed my look she was able to do it exactly how I wanted it even when I wasn't able to describe it! Her team also did an amazing job on my mum and my bridesmaids who looked amazing on our wedding. I would recommend Nicky to everyone I know!

Nicola Honey went above and beyond to ensure our wedding morning ran smoothly. From start to finish she was an absolute professional and having her in my room was like having a friend present. I can not recommend her highly enough. She made my wife and I look and feel like queens which is exactly what you want on your wedding day. If I could give more than five stars I would. Thanks Nicola Honey xx

Nicola was just great. I was after a 1920s/30s look for my wedding and she did a fantastic job. I had so many compliments and loved my look. My bridesmaids looked great too and our hair and make-up lasted all day. Nicola was lovely, really friendly and professional throughout and I'd definitely recommend her hair and make-up service for your wedding.

REBECCA

I met Nicky at the EWE wedding fair and it was clear she had a great mix of vintage and contemporary ideas and a creative flair. As a lover of make up and someone who has their hair and make done a lot this was very important to me. I was impressed with her portfolio as well as I could see she clearly changes her style according to brides styles and for bridesmaids and Mommies, etc.

My trial was great, Nicky really understood what I was after and got my hair and make up perfect. She gave me a lot of confidence in my choices and she is also very personable and easy to get on with. On the wedding day she was brilliantly calm and organised. Ready to lend a hand to anything required and clearly an expert in getting people ready for weddings.

She did a lovely job of the hair and make up and was more than happy to listen to us and tweak as well as being extremely professional and having high standards . We welcomed her creativity.

I didn't worry about my make up all day, I didn't touch it once or even check it in a mirror. My hair didn't move. I felt amazing! Like a 1950s Hollywood Star.

Thank you! Xx

LAURA

I was in two minds about whether to get an MUA for my wedding but Nicola was amazing and I’m so glad I booked her. With suppliers, not only do they need to be great at what they do, but you also need to be great people and Nicola is both. My makeup was perfect and lasted all day as did my bridesmaids and mum’s, despite 30 degree temperatures and Nicola stepped in and helped fix my dress after an almost disaster just before we were about to leave. Could not recommend more highly. She is absolutely brilliant

NICOLA

I booked Nicola for my wedding hair and makeup, she is amazing at what she does. I went equipped with a few images not really knowing what I wanted, and she guided me through what would work well. Through both the trial and the wedding morning she was friendly, and efficient, getting me and my bridesmaids ready early enough that the morning was chilled and enjoyable! My hair and makeup was just perfect, and lasted all day long! Really highly recommended! Thank you Nicola!

TAMSIN

Nicola is simply fantastic at what she does! I booked with Nicola for the morning of my wedding for me, my bridesmaids and both mums to have our makeup done and we had the best start to the day possible! All the ladies in the bridal party are different in terms of style and colouring and every single one of us looked absolutely amazing without being over done - just the best versions of ourselves! Without any prompting my husband said that Nicola had 'nailed it' with my makeup, he was really impressed. Nicola really listens to what kind of look you're going for and is so talented. On top of all that she is just lovely to be around! The lead up to the wedding was brilliant, all communication was great and the trial was brilliant to figure out what we were going for on the day.

I can't thank you enough Nicola for how beautiful you made us all look

FI

I am so happy and relieved that I found Nicola to be our wedding make up and hair artist. I got married last September and from the moment I met Nicola in my trial, she was so professional, inspiring and so talented! I felt so relaxed on the morning of the wedding day because in the trial she created my dream look of 'vintage glamour' within no time. She made sure I was happy and comfortable throughout the morning which so lovely of her. She knows her stuff and was always so accommodating to make my bridal 'look' was perfect before I went down the aisle. My husband LOVED the look she created too ( there were a few tears teehee) If you want a very creative and lovely artist to help make your wedding hair and makeup complete, Nicola is your gal!

This lady is wonderful. From the second she came to me in the morning we had a fab morning, she made me feel so comfortable and at ease and it all added to the excitement of the day. My hair and make up made me feel incredible and just made the whole day even more amazing. Thank you Nicola

What an incredible find! I booked Nicola for my wedding make-up (as well as hair and make-up for my bridesmaids and Mothers of the Bride & Groom); it is easily one of the best decisions I made for my big day! She was friendly, professional and expertly created my perfect bridal look. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the results!

I was hugely impressed with Nicola at my make-up trial. As someone who does not wear make-up on a regular basis, I was quite unsure as to what I wanted for my wedding look and more importantly, what would suit me best. Nicky was fantastic at guiding me and helping decide on my bridal make-up with me. She was supportive and offered honest, friendly advice and talked through the options I had researched. The make-up at the trial was stunning and stayed put all day. I was able to easily discuss my look with Nicola both before and afterwards and she was patient and reassuring.

With a bridal party consisting of 10 bridesmaids, there were a lot of girls to cater for and everyone was absolutely thrilled with their looks on the day. Nicola was brilliant to deal with in the run-up to the wedding and sourced talented additional artists to make each of my (many) girls feel their best.

On the morning of our wedding, Nicola was punctual, organised and as friendly as always which helped keep me calm; I felt in very safe hands throughout. My make-up was flawless and lasted all day (and I happy-cried a lot!). I lost count at how many people complimented both mine and my bridesmaid’s hair and make-up. My look was beautifully natural and was exactly what I wanted.

Thank you so much for making me feel every inch the beautiful bride that I wanted to be; I am beyond thrilled with your work. I cannot recommend you enough and my army of bridesmaids have all said the same! Thank you for being so wonderful to work with before and on the day of the wedding- it is so appreciated! We were a big party to deal with and we loved having you as part of the day. You are a hugely talented and very lovely lady!

Thank you Nicola, you are a star!

Just wanted to say a massive thank you for all your help on my wedding day.

The makeup looked amazing and stayed on all day and I had loads of compliments.

Huge thank you also for helping me with my dress. The day went so quickly and perfectly and followed by a wonderful week in Majorca. Thanks again for everything and it has been lovely getting to know you . Wishing you a lovely time away on your travels.

Nicky was fantastic on my wedding day and in the build up. The trial was great in order to work out what I wanted and whether it would suit me. Nicky gave really good feedback so I could make the best decision for the day. On the day she was punctual, organised and most importantly helped keep me really calm. She was very patient and reassuring. I was thrilled with the results and really felt at my best. Would definitely recommend her! 10/10.


RIPU

Nicola was a fantastic person to have for hair and make-up. She did hair for 7 people and make-up for 3 people (including myself) on my wedding day. By the end of the night, there wasn't a single hair out of place and the make-up was still flawless. She listened to what I, and my bridesmaids, wanted and made us all feel beautiful.
Not only that but she is one of the friendliest people that I have ever met. Our group officially adopted her as an honorary bridesmaid! Thank you for everything Nicola, you made me incredibly beautiful on my wedding day

I don't even have enough good things to say about Nicky, booking her to do my makeup was one of the best things I ever did! As someone who bothers to spend time doing my makeup every day, I was nervous about giving someone control over my look and consequently seeing someone I did not recognize in the mirror. I needn't have worried. Nicky completely understood I wanted to look the way I usually do but a perfect version. She did my makeup , my four adult bridesmaids, my mom and my junior bridesmaid. Everyone looked flawless! and other than applying lipstick a few times during the day it did not budge. She is also incredibly calming and fun to have around on the morning of the wedding. I would recommend her to everyone! Thank you Nicky , you are a superstar!

Thank you so so much for my beautiful wedding hair and make-up last Friday! 😃😃 you’re amazing!

Thank you so much once again for another awesome make-up experience Nicky! 😃🙏
Your lovely and calm relaxing nature and your amazing hands have yet again done a brilliant job like no other! I have recommended you and will continue to do so! Any bride, model etc out there who has you as their make-artist is extremely lucky to have you make them look beautiful!

Nicky did the make up for my wedding, including my mum and 5 bridesmaids, and she did an absolutely amazing job. I was very worried about looking too “done up” on my wedding day but Nicky created a perfect natural look which lasted even through the inevitable tears! I would recommend Nicky over and over again and am so pleased I found her having spent ages searching. Not only is Nicky brilliant at getting your look right and making you look great but she is a lovely person and a delight to have around on the morning of a day you will never forget. My mum was so impressed she has booked Nicky again to do her make up for an evening out!

Had hair and makeup done for a night out. Was really really pleased with the quality of the makeup and the hair which was so different to anything I would have chosen. I put my trust in Nicola and was not disappointed as she was clearly a true professional. Will definitely use again in the future x

CHARLENE

Nicky did the hair and make up for my wedding for me and my bridesmaids. She listened to everything I wanted and helped me get it all just perfectly how I wanted it (and I was one very fussy Bride!). Everyone matched perfectly. I was so pleased with the beautiful natural and vintage look xx

Absolutely amazing!
My make up and hair was fab, I felt a million dollars after having my hair and makeup done by Nicola.
She’s such a friendly person, she really listens to what you want and she gives you loads of styling tips.
I’d definitely recommend her!

Best make up I’ve ever had done, bringing out my best features, while using only the highest quality products (Mac)! Her gentle and calm nature really helped me relax and enjoy the pampering, rather than being nervous about the photo shoot than followed

Having my makeup and hair done by Nicola was brilliant. She was really helpful and friendly. The atmosphere was relaxed. I was very happy with the results and lots of my friends were keen to know who had done such a great job!

I modelled for Nicola on several occasions and loved working with her. She always creates a nice relaxed atmosphere which makes her a joy to work with. On top of all that her work is stunning, would definitely recommend. xxx

If you are looking for a professional, extremely talented and friendly hair and make up artist then please choose Nicola, her make up is stunning and hair styles are fantastic. Highly recommended

A super talented lady with not only great hair and make up skills but an artistic eye for colour, detail and composition. Friendly and professional to boot! Highly recommend.

Nicky is both friendly and professional and her work is of an extremely high standard. Nicky has a wealth of experience and knows exactly how to bring out the best from people’s features. A real talent in the hair and makeup industry!

Extremely talented hair and makeup artist - highly recommend for any occasion. Years of experience and a huge passion for makeup demonstrated in her amazing work

Amazing! Best make up I’ve ever had done. 100% recommend

Fantastic Make Up Artist! Thank you......xx.

Super talented and creative hair & makeup artist! Would highly recommend
