​​I could not recommend Melissa enough who did both my hair and make up - it was exactly what I wanted and it did not budge all day! I felt amazing and received so many compliments.

The bridesmaids and my mum also loved both their hair and make-up.

The wedding morning was so relaxed and the organisation of timings meant everything went so smoothly. Melissa is so lovely and genuine and it was an absolute joy to share my wedding morning with her. Nothing was too much trouble and she fitted in perfectly!

​Melissa was just what I was looking for in a hair stylist. Her positive and kind personality was just what I needed with all the nerves that come with getting married.

Melissa was very flexible, I even changed my mind on the look I wanted after the initial trial, (I decided to have braids in my hair instead of loose curls and it looked amazing!).

I trusted her to take the risk on changing my hairstyle and she delivered!

My bridesmaids also loved their hairstyles, they were all matching and made them look even more beautiful on the day.

​Mel was amazing!!

From setting up my consultation meeting to being there on the day - she made me and my bridal tribe so comfortable and relaxed and we knew we were in safe hands!

Mel delivered exactly what we wanted and we had rave reviews on the day and from extended friends and family who saw the pictures afterwards.

​I would highly recommend!!

- LAUREN WINTERBURN , 14TH SEPTEMBER '25







​Melissa was so amazing and I loved the whole experience.

My trial was amazing and she was able to get the look I was looking for with ease but also my bridesmaids and MOTB was so pleased with her look.

I would definitely recommend.
​
Thanks again

​​Melissa made my wedding day - my hair and make up were just how I'd imagined, natural but still looking special! My bridesmaids all loved their looks too. Melissa made the whole morning feel calm and fun and set the day off in the perfect way! I didn't have to do any touch ups all day, and at the end of the night I had comments from friends who couldn't believe how well my hair and make up had held all day :)

- AMY KINTON , 27TH SEPTEMBER '25


​Melissa did my hair and make up for my wedding in September, and I can't recommend her highly enough. I was so pleased with how I looked all day, and my bridesmaids were really happy too. At every interaction she was kind, considerate and helpful, and was a lovely addition to the wedding morning while we were getting ready. You won't regret booking Melissa!

- ROSALIE BIERNE , 20TH SEPTEMBER '25



​​Melissa was fantastic throughout the whole process, great communication and so friendly!

The trial was great and she made me feel really relaxed.

Melissa and Scarlett were absolutely incredible on the day and worked so hard and efficiently and were so kind, the end results of all our hair and make up were absolutely stunning and lasted the whole day so well!

Not only that but she was such a calming presence on the morning and helped with other prep like the veil!

I couldn’t recommend Melissa enough, if you want gorgeous hair and make up and to have a lovely friendly relaxed experience make sure to book her!

​ Thank you so much Melissa 😊

- AMY OSMAN , 13TH SEPTEMBER '25
Melissa was absolutely incredible from start to finish. From the trial to the wedding day, Melissa made me and the rest of my bridal party feel so calm - we were very much in safe hands and I knew it right away! (My trial was on one on the windiest days of the year and yet there was not a hair out of place all day!)

Melissa knew what I wanted better than I did! This was so helpful and reassuring to me at a time where there are so many decisions to be made - I ended up with the most stunning hair and makeup that I have ever had! She made us all feel super confident, relaxed, and the best version of ourselves.

Me and my sister will always want different styles but she was able to work her magic and intertwine our different looks so they completely matched - she is truly a genius!

My makeup lasted all day and all night – through lots of hugs, and lots of dancing! My hair stayed perfectly in place and looked amazing in all our photos! I felt so special all day ❤️

I couldn’t recommend Melissa more highly! Melissa, we are all so grateful to you for your super talent and for making us all feel extra wonderful! Thank you! ❤️

- CARLY LENCH , 6TH SEPTEMBER '25



Melissa was my hair and makeup artist for my wedding recently. She was absolutely wonderful!

She did a brilliant job for me and my sister creating an elegant but natural look. Everyone at the wedding loved the results and it lasted all day long despite the hot weather and all the dancing.

Melissa was very accommodating when after the first trial I decided to completely change my hairstyle and she managed to find me a slot to do a second trial at short notice.

She is a really friendly and warm person and it was an absolute pleasure working with her.

We both loved our hair and makeup and I felt really beautiful on my wedding day!

​I strongly recommend her!

- ZSOFI BARBALICS , 24TH AUGUST '25
Melissa and her amazing team, Scarlett and Steph, did my wedding hair and makeup and they were absolutely brilliant! From the very beginning, Melissa was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was warm, friendly, and very professional. We had a wonderful trial where I got to see how the hair and makeup would look on the day and talk through any changes I wanted made for the day.
On the wedding morning, I had seven bridesmaids, myself, and two moms and Melissa coordinated everything flawlessly. The timeline ran perfectly, and everyone was ready with time to spare, which meant we could enjoy the morning without feeling rushed or stressed. The atmosphere was relaxed and fun and a huge part of that was down to the seamless way Melissa and her team worked.
A few weeks before the wedding we had to change our getting-ready location, which meant reworking the schedule. Melissa was so flexible and accommodating with the change! She quickly adjusted everything to ensure the morning still ran to plan.
The hair and makeup were absolutely stunning! I felt so beautiful! Melissa and her team really listened to what each person wanted, and the end results were even better than I had hoped for. Our looks held all day and night long and the photos look absolutely perfect!
I cannot recommend Melissa enough - thank you so much Melissa!!

- VICTORIA ARTAZA , 23RD AUGUST '25






​Melissa was the absolute dream, and I’m so happy I chose her for me and my bridesmaids hair and makeup. She created the most beautiful hairstyles, made any adjustments (which were minimal because she absolutely nailed it) and made us all look flawless. My hair and makeup stayed in place all day/evening. She really listened to what I wanted and offered suggestions based on her experiences. She brought such a fun, relaxed and professional atmosphere the morning of the wedding, she’s so easy to talk to and clearly loves what she does. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much 🤍

- CHARIS DANT , 11TH AUGUST '25



​I can not recommend Melissa enough - I don't usually wear much make up and really wanted my make up and hair to be classic and natural and Melissa completely got the brief! She also brought really calming and lovely vibes to the morning - thank you so much!

- ABIGAIL PEACOCK , 9TH AUGUST '25

​I had Melissa as my make up artist for my wedding this past weekend and I honestly couldn’t recommend her enough, I loved my make up and so did the rest of the bridal party who also had there hair done. The environment on the morning was perfect and she kept everything running smoothly and was even ahead of schedule. All in all everything was perfect and could not have gone any better.

- NIAMH CURZON , 26TH JULY '25
Melissa was an absolute gem! She was so helpful during our trial and regularly checked in to make sure that I not only loved the look but to also ask if I wanted any changes. I asked if the full look could be cruelty free and she literally split all her products for the trial so I could see what my options were are and was just incredibly helpful.

On my wedding day she had the patience of a saint working on me and my mum. Making us both look gorgeous and even helping me with final touches like getting my veil pinned in just right, teaching me how to dab away the dreaded sweaty upper lip without ruining my makeup, and being a general calming presence amongst the chaos.

Needless to say the hair and makeup itself was actually flawless. My curls and makeup lasted all day, through sweaty hugs, tears, and bubbles! I don't usually wear a lot of makeup and Melissa was totally understanding and made me feel gorgeous without feeling like I had too much on.

Can't recommend enough ✨

​Fabulous hair and make up for my wedding
As someone who doesn’t usually wear makeup I was nervous , but Melissa listened to me and made me look and feel so special
I loved my hair and it lasted through lots of dancing
Thank you so much for an fabulous job!

- LYNNE MCEWAN , 5TH JULY '25
Melissa and her assistant, Scarlett, were a dream and everything I hoped for in hair and makeup artists.
From the very start when I reached out to Melissa a year prior to my wedding, she was warm, friendly and professional, and nothing was too much of an ask to help me with.
She is incredibly organised and she managed the timeline of 4 bridesmaids, myself and two Mums impeccably well with plenty of time to spare so we all enjoyed a relaxed and happy morning of preparations.
Thank you so much Melissa, you're incredible, and I will always recommend you!

- HEATHER MEEK , 28TH JUNE '25





Stunning! Melissa (and Scarlett) did the make up for my big day, and for the 7 members of my Team Bride, and each of us absolutely loved our looks. She was so attentive and listened to exactly what I, and the girls, wanted and delivered exactly that!

We were finished ahead of schedule and Melissa stayed until the first looks were complete to do some much needed touch ups (too many tears!!).

​Our looks held all day and night long and the photos have come out perfect! Thank you so much to both of you for being with us on my big day, I 100% recommend Melissa for creating your amazing bridal looks!

- REBECCA ELLIOT , 27TH JUNE '25












Melissa was wonderful, she did make up for six of us and we were all so happy with the results. She was so friendly and lovely to have around too, and worked calmly yet efficiently. Would highly recommend!

- ELLIE SMITH , 21ST JUNE '25







Melissa really had her work cut out on my wedding day as the weather was so hot! That said, my hair and that of my bridesmaid ,held perfectly well throughout the day, including when we were spinning around in a ceilidh! She was so accommodating and professional. It was such a relaxing experience. Thank you so much Melissa.

- HANNAH ROBSON , 19TH JUNE '25









​Melissa was absolutely wonderful! We had created a schedule for the day ahead of time but on the day itself there were various changes that had to be made as wedding mornings can be hectic! But Melissa was so adaptable and easy going, she really set the relaxed tone of the morning and kept me and the bridesmaids chilled. Her work was just beautiful and all the girls felt pampered and gorgeous on the day – even the Mums! I would highly recommend Melissa, she was just fabulous!

- TORIA BURNS , 12TH JUNE '25




​Melissa did an absolutely brilliant job at doing makeup for my mother and mother in law, and hair and make up for my bridesmaid and myself. We all felt beautiful! She absolutely nailed my rather obscure brief (hair like Hero as portrayed by Kate Beckinsale in Much Ado about Nothing) and I went down the aisle feeling like a million dollars. She's also a lovely calm person to have around on the morning of a wedding - I strongly recommend her!

- KATIE FOXTON , 7TH JUNE '25
Melissa did my hair and make-up for my wedding day along with the hair for both my bridesmaids. She was excellent. She listened to everything we asked for and checked-in to check we were happy at every step of the way. Every bride wants to look their best on their big day and Melissa helped me achieve everything I could have wished for and more. I had so many compliments about my beautiful, understated and natural looking make-up. She is also such a kind and supportive person and helped me and my bridesmaids get into our dresses. I can't recommend her enough.

- ALISON FRANKLIN , 6TH JUNE '25
​I would absolutely recommend Melissa who did mine and my bridal party's make-up on the 30th May 2025. Melissa stepped in at very short notice (just over a week before) due to my booked makeup artist not being available and we were so appreciative of her support and being available to fit in a trial for me at such short notice. Melissa did our makeup beautifully and just how we wanted, such a lovely, outgoing and friendly person to have on your wedding morning! It lasted all day and we all felt beautiful. Melissa was very organised for the day, arrived early and had great communication and I felt so reassured having her support. Melissa had 6 of us to do for makeup and my wedding morning was so relaxed to due to her great timings, organisation which left us with time to relax before we set off. Thank you Melissa! Xx

As someone who doesn’t wear much makeup and in general feels really uncomfortable with a full face of makeup, Melissa made sure I got exactly what I envisioned.

During the trial she was so patient and receptive to my ideas, while also sharing her expertise. My wedding makeup and hair exceeded all my expectations!!!

Melissa is extremely professional, great at communicating, and such a pleasant person. I cannot recommend her enough!

- SUSANNA CRUZ , 29TH MAY '25





​Melissa was absolutely incredible from the first trial to the day of the wedding.

Not only did she make everyone feel so comfortable on the morning getting ready, but she also created exactly the look I wanted; taking great care with listening and altering my make up and hair.

I couldn't recommend Melissa highly enough with the beautiful work she did on the hair and make up for myself and the bridesmaids, that lasted from the first photo all the way through to the final dance.

​Thank you so much Melissa!

- EMMA DENISON . 26TH MAY '25
Melissa and her team, Lauren and Jess, provided hair and makeup services for my, my mother, my grandmother, and four bridesmaids for my recent Oxford wedding. They were fantastic! Firstly, they were extremely prompt, which was so important to us since we had a morning ceremony and not much time in the morning to get ready. Second, they really listened to what each woman wanted and delivered. Everyone's hair and makeup looked fantastic and lasted the whole day - even with some serious dancing! I've never seen my mother more excited about her hair - she had a beautiful updo with a hat and glamorous, yet still fresh and natural makeup. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day thanks to Melissa's work - she was able to incorporate my crown/headband and veil in a style that held up all day (and my hair has historically not held curl at all - this lasted two days!). I also loved the makeup - soft but still glam. Third, Melissa's communication was really strong - I had some travel issues which meant that I was unable to make my original trial time, but she was able to reschedule me quickly. Finally, I really appreciate Melissa's calming demeanor - my mom and I were a bit stressed in the morning, but she helped to ground us and just make the morning fun and upbeat. She was reassuring but also just so professional — we felt we were in the best hands.

- BRITTANY ELLIS , 25TH MAY '25


​​I can’t express enough how grateful I am to my incredible wedding hair stylist for bringing my dream bridal look to life. From the moment we first spoke, Melissa listened so carefully to my vision and made me feel completely at ease.

My hair held perfectly throughout the entire day (and night which is rare as it normally doesn’t last more than 5 mins!) through laughter, and lots of dancing. I’ve never felt more beautiful. Not only is Melissa unbelievably talented, but she’s also such a calming, kind presence- exactly what every bride needs on her wedding day.

Thank you for making me feel like the best version of myself. You truly have a gift, and I’m so lucky you shared it with me. Thank you Melissa! You’re amazing! Xxxx

- LUCY AUSTIN , 24TH MAY '25
Melissa was amazing on my wedding day! She was calming, friendly and just what we needed. She did both my hair and makeup, and the final look was perfect. She took on board any changes I wanted following my trial and made sure she stayed around right up until I left for the ceremony to make sure I had final touch ups. Melissa did all my bridesmaids hair and they all LOVED how they looked. She is truly talented. Highly recommend!!!! Thank you Melissa!!!

- CHLOE LAMBERT , 22ND MAY '25




Melissa was amazing from the very start and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to do my hair and makeup.
I had a trial to begin with which really helped bring the vision of how it would look on the day and was perfect and she recreated this even better on the day it’s self.
She had also done my mums hair and makeup and 3 of my bridesmaids hair on the day and everyone loved it.
I received so many compliments of family and friends of how much they loved the hair and makeup.
I cannot fault Melissa in any way she is so kind and professional in everything she does and is incredibly accommodating.
Thank you so much for making a part of my day in the morning so special and wonderful.

- GEORGIA INNOCENT , 12TH MAY '25

We were so lucky to have Melissa as our hair artist for my daughter's wedding! She is lovely to work with: really listens to what you want, is always cheerful, and inspires confidence and calm. On the day, she and her assistant Ruby coped with eight excited women (plus a newborn baby) in a very busy house and made all our hair look absolutely beautiful. Highly recommend!

- ALISON KELLY , 26TH APRIL '25
Melissa was amazing the morning of the wedding getting myself 3 bridesmaids and my mum ready for the big day! I had my hair a makeup trial a few weeks before had and she absolutely nailed my hair and makeup. We all had such a fun relaxing time getting ready in the morning, Melissa took care of all the timings of when we would be ready no one had to worry about anything.
Melissa you were so friendly and professional I will always recommend you! Thanks so much x

- LAURA THOMLINSON , 25TH APRIL '25
Melissa styled my hair recently as I was a bridesmaid for my friend’s wedding.

I showed Melissa some photos of Hollywood curls and she perfectly listened to the brief! I had so many compliments and the style stayed in all day (I even enjoyed them the following day too!).

In general, Melissa was really experienced from a technical standpoint, really friendly, and wanted to make sure each bridesmaid was really happy. Would definitely recommend!

- KATHERINE ANSTEY , 11TH APRIL '25

​​Melissa is the best ! Having had my hair and makeup done as a bridesmaid by Melissa a few years ago, I didn't hesitate to get in touch to see if she would be available for my own wedding.

My bridesmaids all looked so beautiful and every single one of them loved their hair and makeup which is quite unheard of especially when there were 7 of them! I personally felt so much more confident in all my pictures because I was SO happy with how my hair and makeup looked on the day - I didn't have a single worry.

To make things even better Melissa is such a lovely person and it was so nice to have her there with me on my wedding morning! She went above and beyond to make sure we were all feeling our best.

Special mention to Lauren who was there to help with my army of bridesmaids too - again an absolute joy to have there with us and smashed all the girls hair and makeup too!

Massive thank you to you both!
