Beautiful natural hair and makeup
The service from Janet and Sian was incredibly professional and helpful from start to finish. I cannot thank Sian enough for visiting my house three times to do trials, my hair was very hard to work with and Sian kept trialling so that she could create to most perfect hair style for my wedding Day. I absolutely adored my hair and and makeup on the day, my makeup was beautifully natural and my hair was a gorgeous boho curly up do. My hair stayed in all day and night and my makeup did not need one signal touch up. The bridesmaids and bridal party were also very happy and looked Beautiful, thanks to Lara and Holly. Thank you so much Sian I would not have felt beautiful without you! Natasha Andrew xxxxx

Could not recommend more!
Janet did my bridesmaids and my hair for my wedding and did an amazing job. Not only were we thrilled with our hair but she went above and beyond to make sure the morning went as smooth as possible. She was very easy to contact on the run up to the wedding and her prices are a very reasonable.

Fabulously skilled, accommodating and flexible
Janet and her team specialise in natural look makeup; If you want to look like the best, most polished version of yourself on your wedding day, she is the MUA to choose. I was really worried about getting my look right and getting the right shade foundation as a brown bride who doesn’t wear makeup day to day, but Janet put me at ease and really helped me to choose a look that would help me to feel like myself, and also tried and tested a few different shades until we got it right. She was so accommodating to my specific requests for my look (winged eyeliner, a big bouncy blow dry, headpieces for myself and my bridesmaids) and was a really calming presence on the day. Our hair and makeup looked fantastic and lasted all day. Would definitely recommend to all brides.

Great Service
Janet is very friendly and helpful. I kept being told I looked incredible and really pleased with the result. Loved the hair and my make-up looked good all day through. She also helped with my mother-in-law, grandma-in-law and my bridesmaid with their hair and make-up. Absolutely love all the job she did for us on the day.

The best
Thank you so much to Janet and Sian for coming to Abergavenny and helping us get ready for my wedding! I'm so thrilled I found Janet! From the start, she understood exactly what I wanted and really listened. I wanted to look like myself on the day, but also really special and Janet knew exactly what to do. She's wonderful to be around and Sian was amazing as well. Thank you, thank you!

Janet to be so helpful and sweet. She made me feel so at ease on a normally stressful morning.
This review is now long overdue. First of all, I want to say THANK YOU Janet! Me and my husband got married in July this year and just weeks before the wedding I still didn't have anyone to do my hair and feared I would have to do it myself or travel to a hair dresser the morning of my wedding. After some Googling I found Janet's website and sent her a message to enquire about availability. I quickly received a response back for booking both a trial and advising availability on our wedding day. I went to Janet's house for the trial, and I was so pleased with the result. Janet really listened to what I wanted and took care in making it exactly right. I also really liked that she took photos of my hair in case of an emergency, so that any one of her associates could pick it up if ever needed. This filled me with a lot of confidence. On the morning of the wedding I decided I wanted some eucalyptus added to my hair, this was not discussed in the initial trial but was not an issue at all with Janet who made my hair prettier than I could have imagined. Seeing as my wedding was one of the only weddings I have been to, I found Janet to be so helpful and sweet. She made me feel so at ease on a normally stressful morning. Couldn't recommend Janet White-Ashby & Co. enough!
