Lydia was perfect and I would highly recommend. Not only did she do an amazing job with our hair and makeup, but she went out of her way to make sure we all was happy. I can't thank her enough for creating my perfect wedding make up and my bridesmaid looked fantastic.

The best hair and make up stylist ever! Would highly recommend Lydia to everyone! Super professional and I felt like a princess, thank you so so much Lydia. My face was not looking it’s best on the morning of my wedding and yet Lydia made my skin look flawless! Thanks again❤️💋 xxx

Lydia was brilliant, she did myself, my mum and bridesmaid hair and makeup. My new husband doesn’t really like makeup but he actually said he loved it. Thanks Lydia xx
Charlotte Cottam

I booked Lydia for hair and makeup for myself and my daughter as well as hair ups for 3 bridesmaids for my wedding in June. From the trial through to the day, Lydia was amazing. So much more than hair and makeup, Lydia kept me calm and relaxed about timings, listened to what we all wanted and got us all ready with plenty of time to spare. She is a lovely person with such a skill for hair and makeup - I was so worried about being heavily made up but she made me feel beautiful! Thank you so much
Leanne Spencer

Lydia did my hair and makeup and I can't recommend her enough. Everything was relaxed and I had so many compliments about my hair on the day. Lydia also did the makeup of the rest of the bridal party which was another 7 people to get ready. Thank you Lydia for everything, for making me feel fabulous and for being part of mv special day.

I can't recommend Lydia enough! She did mine and my bridesmaid's wedding make up which we all loved. Lydia listened to what I wanted at the trial and got it spot on. From start to finish Lydia was professional and friendly and even helped put me at ease on the big day. I felt as though I could completely trust her and was very happy with everything. Thank you Lydia!
Stephanie McCooey

I can't recommend Lydia enough. So professional, friendly and amazing at what she does. Nothing was ever too much for her and she did mine and my bridal party's hair and make up beautifully. Even when I changed my mind on my make up on the morning of the wedding, she still got it spot on. It was perfect. It was a joy to have her with us in the morning and I will definitely be using her services again for special occasions.
Michelle Shuttleworth

Would definitely recommend Lydia - from point of contact until the day very friendly and didn't even have a trial as knew looking at her pictures she would be able to do me a nice natural bridal look and she didn't let me down! Xx
