Bride Review

"Hi Vicky. I am going to send you a proper thank you card but may be a while before their printed and I have to say before then, thank you so much for everything you did both before the wedding and on the day. You honestly were incredible and so kind and caring and I really felt as though you would do anything it took that morning to make me feel 100% perfect, which you did. I loved my hair and makeup and have no doubt that I would not have felt that way had you not been there. I am so grateful for everything you did and everyone commented that my hair and make up was beautiful so thank you. You've been brilliant  x"

Hair and Makeup Autumn/Winter 2012


Berkhamsted Living Magazine

Vicky Brown Hair and Makeup Artist Berkhamsted


"As the nights draw in and the weather gets colder, it can be tempting to go into hibernation mode, reaching for the woolly hat and ditching the makeup. Just because it’s getting colder, there’s no excuse to hide away, in fact, now is the time to try something new and brighten your look. A couple of simple, on trend changes will make you feel great and can be your own personal war on the grey British weather!
Classic red lips were everywhere on the autumn/winter 2012 catwalks. Be it crimson, berry or pillar-box red; every time the weather cools it seems we just can’t help reaching for the lipstick to brighten our wardrobe! It’s such a key trend for the new season and if you’ve never tried it before, why not give it a go at this year’s Christmas party? Go on...be brave! Lighter berry shades are great for a pretty look when teamed with a natural base and eyes; however, darker shades like burgundy, look striking and glamorous both day and night.


Update your hairstyle with a side parting for the new season, It’s a great way to refresh your look without undergoing an expensive cut and re-style. Wear your hair loose in a side parting for a soft look or tie it back in a low slung pony or bun to give it a sharper style, another hit on the runways this year. 
If all else fails, you can always resort to the classic smoky eye and nude lip, always a timeless classic and will match any outfit day or night.Do remember though, harsh winter temperatures can be a nightmare for our hair and complexion, so no matter what trend you choose to follow this winter 2012, make sure that your makeup includes a skin care base that will help protect you from the winter cold and anti-frizz products for your hair can be a real life saver."

Hairdressing; Colour Change Service

So now for a rather geeky confession...the reason I love colouring people's hair? Yes it makes a huge change to someones appearance and yes, there's a bit more variety with colouring then cutting but really?...It's because there is so much science behind it all and I love a challenge! Anyone who has used a home hair kit will know that hair colour very rarely turns out the way it looks on the box.
 
There are so many factors that need to be considered before selecting the correct colour and tone; condition of the hair? Does the hair need to be stripped if too dark? Does the hair need to be pre-pigmented if too light? Are the tones compatible? Does the colour need to be neutralised etc etc...
 
Fiona has had highlights in her hair for the past 5 years and decided it was time for a change. To get Fiona's hair ready for the darker colour, it was essential we pre-pigmented her hair first...basically putting back in the colour which the years of bleach had stripped out. Without doing so, the hair would have turned a khaki, light brown. Once the warmth was put back into Fiona's hair, we could begin the normal colouring process...

TOWIE’s Lauren Pope at Lakeside Shopping Centre

“Fashion comes to life at Lakeside Shopping Centre as mannequins and TOWIE’s Lauren Pope, go in search of the latest Autumn/Winter trends.”
 
 Lakeside Shopping Centre is hosting its annual autumn/winter fashion shows this weekend from 5th to 7th October showcasing the hottest new looks for men, women and children from a wide range of Lakeside shops.
I was lucky enough to be asked to do the makeup for Lauren in a 'night of the living mannequins' style photo shoot while the centre was empty late at night.
The brief was to make Lauren look like a mannequin whilst keeping her makeup fresh and beautiful. Using matt products and harsh contouring, this look worked well under camera and can be seen on Reveal.co.uk and OK! Magazine

Testimonials for Vicky Brown Hair and Makeup Artist

 
"Vicky completed the hair and makeup for my wedding. She spent several hours with me during a trial and I felt as though there was no rush. Vicky made me feel at ease and I was very relaxed in her presence. The same can be said for the wedding day. She helped to calm my nerves and allowed plenty of time for hair and makeup to be completed. It was perfect and so many people commented on how stunning it looked. I was so pleased. Vicky is very professional and it is easy to warm to her. She even stayed for over an hour after completing my hair and makeup to help out with any last minute bits and to make sure there were no touch ups needed after putting on my dress. In the end she was helping my family with all sorts of bits just before we all left! Thank you so much Vicky! It was all so perfect"

Hertfordshire Weddings


One of the most popular weekends for summer weddings has been and gone and it certainly felt like one of the busiest!

Friday I went to meet a bride Juliet for a bridal trial ready for her wedding this September at Shendish Manor in Hertfordshire. It’s so lovely to help someone find their perfect style and this bride wasn’t sure where to start but we ended up with a very natural up-do.
 
 
Saturday morning I went to do Bride Kerry’s hair and makeup for her wedding in Shenley. Kerry had been let down by a very well know artist in the area just 3 weeks before her big day and was absolutely devastated; so it was lovely to see her so excited on the morning and she was over the moon with the hair and makeup I did for her.

Following Kerry’s wedding, I went off to my 2nd trial of the weekend to meet another bride ready for her wedding in October. We spent quite some time running through different hairstyles as the bride wasn’t sure what she wanted, I’m looking forward to heading back in the next couple of weeks to finalise details and also run through a makeup trial with her sister also.

Sunday morning, I headed off bright and early with Charlie Pearcy and Lauren Taylor to help prepare a big bridal party at Down Hall Country House Hotel, Hatfield Heath. It’s unusual for 3 artists to go to one morning but with such a big bridal party, it’s always lovely to have company!

Monday...Bank Holiday and I still found time to meet with another bride to discuss wedding hair and makeup arrangements for her date in October. It was also great to help her out with her dress alterations, recommending Charlotte Grace, a seamstress and dress maker based in St Albans.

When to Book Your Wedding Hair and Makeup

Congratulations if you've just got engaged! Planning your wedding day should be both fun and exciting, but it's easy to get overwhelmed and how just early is too early to start booking everything?

Chances are, the first thing you’ll do is find your perfect wedding venue, after all, this can determine the date of the ceremony. The other details will then follow; cars, reception, catering, music, dress etc etc. Recently though, I have been inundated with last minute enquires from frantic brides desperate to find a Hair and Makeup Artist for their big day because they’ve left it to the last minute. With the rest of the wedding industry booking up so early, it’s just as important to sort your Hair and Makeup Artist for the day as we get booked up early too and it’s horrible turning a bride away!

It’s so easy to get swept away with it all and the big day comes around far quicker than you expect, but you need to allow plenty of time to liaise with your Hair and Makeup Artist:

·         Once you’ve found your Artist, make sure you take advantage of the free consultation to introduce yourself, discuss your ideas and arrangements for the day and most importantly; to make sure you’re completely comfortable with person! If you’re happy, this is then the time to pay your deposit and secure your date which will ensure nobody else get’s in there first.

·         A trial then normally takes place 6-8 weeks prior to the wedding day, but talk to your Hair and Makeup Artist about your expectations and any plans for cut’s, colour’s or spray tans as they may suggest alternative trial dates. A trial then allows you to try different looks and ideas, often with the help of images, accessories and of course the style of your dress. The trial is the perfect time to discuss the requirements for the rest of your bridal party and any other concerns you may have.

·         The Hair and Makeup Artist will then work out a schedule for the morning for you depending on the size of your bridal party, styles chosen and the time of the ceremony.

·         On the day, the Hair and Makeup Artist will arrive with all your photo’s and notes from the trial and will re-create the look exactly. Now isn’t the time to go changing your mind as it’s often a case of last minute nerves; but if you do have any concerns, please let them know!

Wedding Hair and Makeup Trial

It's always lovely to be asked along to do a hair and makeup trial for a bride, but the pressure is most definitely on when a previous hair and makeup artist hasn’t performed to expectations!

A trial should be an exciting moment in the run up to the big day and you shouldn’t be left with any doubts. So many times I’ve heard of other artists putting time limits on the trial or telling the bride “it may look a bit scuffy and feel a bit loose but it won’t be like that on the day...” which in my opinion, is not a great way to put your bride at ease or gain any business!

This should be a relaxed and fun occasion and the perfect time to discuss any ideas you have, any concerns and all the details for the big day.

Getting married in September, this lovely bride was desperate to get a second opinion after bring left unhappy with her previous trial...needless to say, she was over the moon with the look we created at the trial...

Skin Care Guide

I’m frequently asked about skin care routine so, I’ve decided to put a little skin care guide together! Hopefully you find this useful and please contact me if you have any questions or need product advice.

STEP 1: CLEANSE
Using your fingers, rub the cleanser of your choice all over your face making sure you also reach those blemish prone areas around your nose and chin. Rinse with warm water and if you want a light exfoliation, try using a muslin cloth when removing the product.

STEP 2: TONER
Toner is so important as it finishes removing anything you missed during cleansing. Place a small amount of the product on a cotton wool pad and sweep over the face.

STEP 3: SERUM
Serums are still fairly new so many people still don’t incorporate this into their skin care routine yet. There are many different serums on the market, from anti-aging to acne prone skin but all come loaded with vitamins and nutrients and this product has the ability to really penetrate all layers of the skin.  Use a small amount and massage into the face well.

STEP 4: EYE CREAM
Eye cream is always a recommended product but a necessary one?...probably not.
If like me, you can get away with using a light moisturiser, than you can probably give eye cream a miss. If you use a rich moisturiser for anti-aging or very dry skin, these shouldn’t be applied to the sensitive eye area anyway as it can cause puffiness and damage to the sensitive skin area.
Take a tiny bit of product onto your finger and pat it lightly beneath the eye.

STEP 5: MOISTURISER
Light, rich, firming, anti-aging...whatever your choice of moisturiser, use a generous amount.

 STEP 6: SUNSCREEN

Most makeup products come with SPF in which technically means you can skip this step. However, if you really want to look after your skin, use a sunscreen for your face beneath your makeup.

STEP 7: PRIMER (prior to makeup application only)
I can’t recommend a primer enough...really really really. It helps form a protective layer between your skin and makeup and most importantly helps your makeup stay on all day. Once your moisturiser has thoroughly absorbed, using your fingers, work in a small amount of primer across your face, primarily around the T-Zone.
