Helen Andrew Professional Hair & Make up Artist Full Description
Every artist and stylist will have their own “style”, my make up artistry focuses on enhancing natural beauty, creating the best version of yourself making sure you still feel like you and most of all confident on your wedding day. My style ranges from natural and radiant bridal looks, to a heavier glam finish and everything in between. My hairstyling skills are very much versatile. Whilst I absolutely love creating textured boho styles, if classic polished bridal hairstyles are what you have in mind then I’m here for that too! Take a look at my work to see the various styles I’ve created over the years :)

Made me feel like a million dollars on my big day

From start to finish Helen was absolutely amazing. So kind, professional and made me feel like a million dollars on my big day. Constant communication keeping me in the loop at all times, really great makeup trial and when it came to the big day, Helen was exactly on time and made our morning. Thank you Helen, you’re a star. Would not hesitate to recommend you to my friends and family!

She was calm, attentive and friendly…

I booked Helen for my bridal hair and make-up for my wedding on 12th Feb 24, she also did hair and makeup for my maid of honour and make up for my mother. The 3 of us all had very different requests for our look and wear our make up very differently. Helen did a fantastic job of creating 3 very individual and specific looks. She was calm, attentive and friendly I could not have asked for more! She made me feel at ease and I couldn’t recommend Helen enough.

It was like having a friend do our make-up…

I found Helen on Instagram to do my make-up for my November 2023 wedding and I'm glad I did! She was amazing in getting the hair and make-up perfectly for myself and 4 members of my wedding party - even when we had to move locations due to timings (appreciate the early wake-up call must have sucked but she arrived with the most happy and friendly nature - it was like having a friend do our make-up), I highly recommend Helen for weddings, you won’t regret it!

Helen put me at ease straight away…

I had wedding hair and make up done by Helen. I was so nervous and didn’t really know what I was wanting,Helen put me at ease straight away and just knew what I was trying to ask for at the trial. We had a really small wedding with no fuss and Helen fitted perfectly into that, my hair stayed put all day and my make up was exactly as I wanted it and also stayed where it should even though it was an unexpectedly boiling hot day!

Her calmness filled the filled the room

Helen was an outstanding professional from start to finish. My initial visit with her to talk about what I wanted was made so easy with her clear understanding and years of knowledge. Nothing was rushed and I enjoyed every second, She is quite the perfectionist.On the day of the wedding, she turned up early with a big smile and got straight to work, her calmness filled the filled the room and put everyone at ease. My makeup was perfect, i looked like me but more refined :)

If I could use Helen everyday I would!

Helen is the best at what she does! My hair and makeup for my wedding was amazing, Helen also got my bridesmaids and my mum ready too and she was a pleasure to have around with us all morning whilst we got ready. If I could use Helen everyday I would! I felt beautiful and couldn’t thank Helen more!

All our hair and make up stayed in place…

Helen was recommended to me by a friend to do hair and make up for my wedding on the 24/06/23. Right from our very first email to the trial and the big day itself she was amazing! It was so lovely having Helen with us in the morning, everyone looked amazing and despite how hot it was all our hair and make up stayed in place!

Helen made sure I wasn’t stressed…

Helen did the hair and makeup for me and my bridesmaids on my wedding day. From start to finish I had the best experience. She was professional, friendly, genuine and very experienced. My large bridal party all felt so at ease and we were all massively impressed with her work! Helen made sure I wasn’t stressed when sat in her hair and makeup chair, She made me feel like a princess for the day & you can’t ask for much more than that. Highly recommend booking with Helen!

Hair and make up lasted all day and night…

Helen was just amazing right from the start to the finish. I’d never had my hair or make up professionally done but Helen made me feel comfortable at my wedding trial and executed exactly what I was looking for from my wedding hair and make up! Mine and my bridal parties hair and make up lasted all day and night, I didn’t have to touch up at all.You know your make up artist has smashed it when your cousins husband says ‘wow look at her eyeshadow, it’s amazing!’ I couldn’t recommend Helen enough!

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

Oh wow, it has to be the one where the bride had booked a videographer who provided a karaoke package. He had the whole bridal party jumping on the bed, singing along to their chosen song for the day….the atmosphere was buzzing, everyone was just full of energy and smiles!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Versatile, elegant, romantic, boho, radiant.

What about your business are you most proud of?

My reviews! Nothing quite beats waking up in the morning only to receive the most amazing review online or thank you cards/gifts through my letterbox….it is honestly the best reminder as to why I do what I do and love my job so much 🥰

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

When choosing your ceremony time, keep in mind the size of your bridal party that need to be wedding ready on time. If you’ve a large bridal party with a 12pm ceremony then you’ll need to hope your bridal party are “morning people” 😅 I will always have my bridal parties ready either 1 hour before the ceremony time (if we’re already at the venue), or 1 hour before you need to leave (if getting ready elsewhere). This gives time to get into dresses and have photos without feeling rushed or stressed….i’m all about the stress free life!

Describe your typical process with a couple.

1. Once you have enquired, I will ask for the relevant information I need to obtain to create a quote for you. 2. Once you’ve received your quote and confirmed you’re happy to secure your booking, I will then send a wedding agreement to you to get your date booked in. 3. Once you’re booked in, the next step will be for me to contact you a few months before your wedding to arrange a suitable bridal trial date with you. 4. Once we have a bridal trial date in the diary I’ll then send a trial preparation email nearer the time with all the information you need to know ahead of your bridal trial date. 5. It’s trial day and you’re super excited to see your wedding hair and make up vision come to life, we’ll take a look at your inspiration photos together and create a look based on your vision to best suit you and your style. 6. After the trial i will write up my notes of products used and team that with photos i’d have taken, this way I can refresh my memory closer to your wedding day to ensure we get the same bridal look on your big day! 7. I’ll always be in touch again closer to your wedding day to reconfirm the venue and times, I find this reassures those last minute nerves.

What do you love most about your job?

Those first reactions when handing over the mirror to the bride and she just LOVES her hair and make up, the feeling i get is genuinely priceless 🥹 I also absolutely love the girly atmosphere during a wedding morning, lots of conversation and laughs ☺️

What is your No. 1 beauty tip for a bride?

SKINCARE! Have a good skincare regime for your skin type (oily, dry, combination). Your make up will only look as good as your skincare regime, if you look after your skin and keep it well hydrated then your make up will look much more flawless, radiant and will also be more durable on the day. It’s also important to hydrate from the inside, so plenty of water and leafy greens will have your skin glowing too! 🤩 Oh and also, never treat yourself to a facial just before the wedding. It may seem like a good idea to have a nice pamper the week of the wedding but it’s highly likely you will break out in blemishes, if you’re going to treat yourself to facials then make a start at least 6 months priory and make it a regular thing…this way your skin will become used to the treatment, appear much more flawless and radiant. I could go on and on, I’ve so many tips I could share but those are top of the list!

How do you keep the bride feeling calm on her wedding day?

Manage my timings well. I like to give myself more than enough time to allow for an enjoyable relaxed morning, there’s no room for stress on a wedding morning when it comes to hair and make up with me. I will also never have the bride last in my chair, when everyone else is wedding ready apart from the bride then this can create the ultimate stress for the bride, Especially when the photographer has arrived and is snapping away!

What advice would you give to brides to stay looking great throughout their wedding day?

Make sure your bridal make up artist is using long wearing and water resistant products. Keep hair away from humidity and moisture (steam dresses/veil the night before or before having hair and make up done on the day, and order those clear umbrellas just in case…although let’s hope you won’t need them). You’ll also want a lipstick to top up with as the more you eat and drink the more lipsticks (even lip stains) wear away, for super hot days it’s hand to have some blot papers to hand…those old school blotting papers are perfect for absorbing moisture from the skin without rubbing off the make up.
