“When I was three years old, my grandmother let me play with some of her make up – this is where my passion for make up and beauty began!”

Before I turned 4, I was able to perfectly apply my own red lipstick. Hair followed soon after. I loved creating new and different styles each day. I soon realised how a bit of makeup and a good hairstyle could make you feel special or enhance your mood.

Having worked for Clinique for more than 15 years I gained a huge amount of experience and understanding of each clients’ individual needs and style. I adore creating flawless, natural, long lasting makeup looks that really enhance a clients’ features.

​My background in theatre has given me vast experience in exploring many different dramatic makeup and hair styles.

I really enjoy creating vintage, old Hollywood glamour style looks as well as fun or scary Halloween themes. I’ll happily turn my hand to any style given to me.

As well as specialising in Hair and Make up I also offer nail treatments including classic and gel manicures and pedicures, Lash Extensions and Lash lifts.

I’m very friendly and pride myself on putting my clients at ease so that we can create their perfect look together. Whatever the occasion, I want every client to feel utterly fabulous!

Brucey is our gorgeous four legged work mate!

He is our adorable shop dog who loves nothing more than a cuddle with our clients.

Think of him as your friendly welcoming committee or your personal therapy dog.

He doesn’t work everyday but would if he could! He enjoys finding the sunniest spot in the salon to lay in, watching the people walking along the road and sitting up like a Meerkat to pose for photos, he’s no stranger to instagram! #shopdogbrucey
