Ieva Genovesi Hair and MUA

Ieva is an amazing, incredibly talented hair and makeup artist who I can guarantee will make you look and feel your best self for your big day. She was incredibly responsive and professional throughout the planning process, even with several postponements due to the current pandemic. I'm so fortunate that she was still able to do my hair and makeup for my small wedding ceremony this October, and she did a truly fantastic job on the day. I received so many compliments from my husband and family, and really felt beautiful! I have really pale skin, but she selected shades that suited me perfectly, and made my features really stand out. I also have quite fine hair, and she assisted me in choosing hair extensions which could be worked into my chosen hairstyle to give it that extra bit of volume - my hair has honestly never looked so good! I was also thrilled to discover Ieva lives just around the corner from me, and offers other beauty services in her home studio. She did a stunning eyelash and eyebrow tint for me, and I'm looking forward to returning in the future for other treatments.

I wish I could have my make up and hair done by Ieva every day! She is amazing and very talented! You can tell she really cares and does her best. She will bring the best out of you and will make you feel wonderful about yourself! She is very easy to work with and will listen to all your suggestions. I cannot thank her enough for being with me on my special day!

I met you when I was a bridesmaid and never had my hair put up like it, you are very talented and so good! I then booked you for my wedding hair and you didn’t disappoint not only did you do my hair unreal you also done my daughters and 11 bridesmaids on the day and you done an outstanding job everyone looked so gorgeous. Much love Kelly

I would thoroughly recommend Ieva for wedding makeup. She made me feel incredibly comfortable as a bride and really listened as well as giving advice to achieve the look I wanted. She also did makeup for 3 bridesmaids and the mother of the bride and again gave them individual looks highlighting each of their best unique features.

If you’re looking for a makeup artist who tailors their service to you and your bridal party then look no further than Ieva. She was kind, warm and looked after me. I was very nervous finding a make up artist as I don’t wear much make up in my day to day life and I wanted to feel like myself in my wedding day. Ieva listened to this and made me feel like a more perfected version of myself but still very much myself. I had a wonderful trial with her, she let my sister come along for opinions and support and on the my wedding day she was exactly where I needed her to be when I needed her to be there. I’ve never felt more beautiful and confident and Ieva played a huge role in this. I cannot thank or recommend her enough to other brides.

Ieva was the hair stylist for our wedding, doing the hair for my 4 bridesmaids, my mum and myself. All of the hair styles were amazing and stayed in place all day. Everyone was really pleased with the results and we all felt fabulous. Thanks Ieva!

Ieva (and her assistant) did a wonderful job with the hair and make-up for both me and my two (adult) bridesmaids. She was very professional and helpful throughout the process, and was great on the morning of the big day itself. She listened to exactly what I wanted and the results were better than I could have hoped for! She was lovely to be around, and the trial was also really fun and very useful. I would definitely recommend Ieva.

Arrived on time- relaxed atmosphere and patient attitude. Ever since enquiring about hair and makeup in April last year I have had nothing but great service from Ieva. Book her!

Ieva Genovesi, where do I start. From the moment I arrived for my trial I could tell I had made a good choice. This was my first time having my make up done professionally and I was unsure exactly what I wanted. Just a few Pinterest pictures to go by Ieva managed to make me look like a million dollars. I was blown away! I ended up toning it down for my wedding day to feel more like “me”. Excellent communication with Ieva in the lead up meant this was completely care free on the actual day, even whilst breastfeeding my crying daughter! I of course woke on the morning of the wedding with a massive spot!! Which I never get :-/ Ieva managed to cover it! You honestly wouldn’t have a clue it was there (this amazed me! I keep rambling on to my friends about it!) I needed no top up of make up from start to finish, 12 hours!! Literally popped on my lip gloss whenever I peeked in the mirror.. all that was needed! Onto hair... all I knew was that I wanted to invole a plait.. as I love to wear Dutch braid bunches when working out and thought it would be cute to include some sort of nod to it ;) plus I loved the idea of being a bit boho to go loosely with our woodland and fairytale theme. We practiced three different styles. I loved them all but one definitely stood out as the front runner for me. Half up half down with a flawless plait joining at the back. On the day Ieva managed to recreate this beautiful look and using a mixture of the artificial flowers I had bought and the real ones the florist had pinned us, created a stunning back, which included my veil (and my something blue). I can’t thank Ieva enough and I’m honestly hoping to get invited to lots of events just to use her again! Thank you Ieva xx

Ieva was the best hair and make up artist I could have wished for. She did my bridal hair and make up, as well as two bridesmaids and mother of the bride. She was so professional, kind and friendly. Thank you so much Ieva.
