I’ve been lucky enough to have Emma transform my hair! She’s great at what she does and makes you feel relaxed. I can’t recommend her enough! I’ve booked her for hair and makeup again and I can’t wait!

Em is the best!!! Shes been cutting my hair for years, through all different styles 😅 shes always understanding of my vision and nails the brief!! She’s been colouring my hair for a nunber of years as well, and did my beautiful mums haor and makeup for her 50th. I recommend her to everyone and only hear raving reviews! Plus shes an absolute legend

Emma is a very talented Hair and make-up artist. She was my hair and make up artist for my small elopement. I am usually a bit hesitant with make up - as someone that doesn’t wear much, I get nervous it will be too much. Em listened to what I was after and executed it perfectly! It all looked great and was perfect for our small elopement. My hair and make up stayed all day as well despite the 30 degree weather. Em was also such a pleasure to have around on the morning of our wedding!

Amazing! Em went above and beyond to fit me last minute and did an amazing job with my hair colour and cut! Definitely will be returning! Also did I mention the view!!! Beautiful luxury experience
