Lucy was so lovely...
Lucy was so lovely and looked after myself and my bridesmaids. I explained to Lucy what I wanted as an overall look and she was able to create something even more beautiful than I had imagined! Her attention to detail was phenomenal!

Lucy was amazing on my wedding day...
Lucy was amazing on my wedding day, really relaxed and friendly. She did all 5 of my bridesmaids and my mum and everyone was so pleased with their hair. The variety and vision Lucy has is amazing and she was so helpful with the trial and on the day. All of our hair lasted all day with ease, as well as surviving Irish jigs! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her in the future. One of my bridesmaids who was married 3 weeks before said she preferred her hair by Lucy to her own wedding hair!!

Lucy did an absolutely amazing job on both mine...
Lucy did an absolutely amazing job on both mine, & my 5 bridesmaids hair. I had a few ideas of what I thought I wanted for the wedding (from Pinterest!), and Lucy managed to translate that into the style which perfectly complemented my veil and dress. We played around with a few styles but her suggestions were spot on. On the day, she arrived bang on time & worked tirelessly to make sure we were all done on time. Her relaxed attitude was a great calming effect on the morning! She was fantastic!

I started with 3 flower girls just needing hair doing...
I started with 3 flower girls just needing hair doing. That quickly increased to 3 older bridesmaids and 2 x family members. Lucy was quick with her responsives, gave great advice and was really flexible. She did and amazing job and the hair updos were commneted about all day - least not because the flowergirls stayed in all day.

I highly recommend Lucy...
I highly recommend Lucy, she paid attention to the details and styles I asked for and she made an excellent job of doing my mum and sisters hair on the day too. We all have very thick tempremental Italian hair and she managed to tame it all and make us look the part for the day. Superstar! Thankyou! Xx

FAQ

What is your most memorable wedding?
The most memorable wedding would have to be when I had to put a taxidermy mouse on a fascinator in one of the bridesmaid’s hair! It was definitely a first, that’s for sure.
Describe your style in 5 adjectives.
Vintage, modern, creative, memorable, lasting.
What about your business are you most proud of?
I’m most proud of achieving a portfolio that has given me so many lovely comments and thank you messages that make my job so worthwhile.
What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
My top tip to couples would be to get recommendations when planning your wedding, whether it’s via your venue or a friend. Word of mouth is the best.
What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?
My favourite personal touch is from one of my lovely brides a few years ago now. She lived in London and was getting married there too. She made roses for the bouquets and hair accessories out of A-Z maps of London which she then painted with a translucent gold paint to add some shimmer. They looked great when I saw them on the wedding day.
Describe your typical process with a couple.
My typical process is to chat with or exchange emails with the bride. I usually don’t meet the groom! Once all the details are sent over and the bride is happy with the quote given we can get the ball rolling.
Prior to the big day we will do a trial run where we discuss ideas that will complement the bride’s face shape, dress, make up and any accessories she may be wearing. We try those ideas out until we find her perfect style.
On the big day I travel to the bride at a prearranged time so she can relax and enjoy the morning getting ready, while I recreate the look we came up with at the trial.
What do you love most about your job?
What I love most about my job is the satisfaction of making someone look and feel amazing! It’s heartwarming to receive so many lovely thank you cards with such great feedback.
What is your No. 1 beauty tip for a bride?
My #1 beauty tip for a bride would be treat your hair to a weekly conditioning treatment to keep it nice and healthy. There are many good quality hair masks you can now purchase to use at home.
How do you keep the bride feeling calm on her wedding day?
I try to stay cool and professional, especially if there is some kind of stressful situation going on.
What advice would you give to brides to stay looking great throughout their wedding day?
I would suggest having a little bottle of hairspray on the day. I usually give the bridal party some emergency clips in case and I usually advise no head banging on the dance floor as the hair may not withstand that!
