YUKI - Surrey
I am originally from Hong Kong and moved to the UK when I was 17.
I studied hair and makeup at the London College of Fashion and I am also a fully qualified hairstylist with NVQ level 3 qualifications.
During my 20s, I was part of many fashion shows and was featured on TV and in magazines.
In 2009, I decided to take a short break away from the shows and spent time exploring, learning and understanding the wedding industry.
I was captivated and have never looked back since!
The feeling of making someone feel and look extra special on their big day fills me with great pleasure, satisfaction and pride.
I love exchanging ideas and working together with the bride and wedding party to produce the end result.
All the looks that I have created have been tailored down to
individual tastes and needs. My favourite style is natural, ‘glow from within’ and timeless.
I also specialise in East Asian (Oriental) hair and makeup and have many years of experience working with brides from China, The Philippines, Vietnam, Korea, Japan, Tibet and Malaysia. So I am very familiar with these skin tones and hair types.
Some of my favourite makeup brands are Giorgio Armani, Hourglass, Charlotte Tilbury, MAC, Chanel and Dior.

Testimonials
I wholeheartedly recommend Yuki for wedding hair and makeup. Yuki is very professional and extremely good at her job! I had a trial with Yuki, which was very informative – she also gave me advice on skincare and products to buy to use on the day so I could look my best.
Leading up to the wedding, she was very responsive and easy to work with
during the planning process. On my wedding day, she worked her magic on me, my
sister and auntie, and all of our hair and makeup lasted beautifully the whole day with
minimal touch-up. Not to mention she made all of us feel at ease on the day and listen
to our preferences attentively. Thank you so much Yuki!

I really don’t know where to start!!! Yuki was just amazing from beginning to the end,
although this won’t be the last time I will be going to her! Yuki beautifully did my hair and make up for my wedding. From our first meeting at the trial, Yuki gave advice on skin care and tested what best make up to use as I suffer from eczema - she wasn’t wrong!
The make up used felt so comfortable on my skin and just natural. Yuki also coloured my
hair a couple of weeks before the wedding - full head balayage and hair cut and it was
exactly how I wanted it and even better! On the day of my wedding, Yuki was just
amazing! My hair do and make up was just perfect, even better than what I could have
ever imagined with the beautiful hair piece just added that extra something and
complimented my wedding dress and veil!! Make up and hair lasted the whole day and I was complemented by all our guests on how amazing Yuki made me look!!
Thank you so much Yuki!! I really can’t recommend you highly enough!! Working with
you was just easy!!!

No better way to say thank you then to leave a very well deserved 5 starts review :) Yuki
was very professional and so, so lovely right from the onset!
She was fantastic on every front - addressing my queries on her availability including dealing with our postponement of our wedding date due to Covid.
She is also very receptive and patient to my preferences whilst also giving very helpful suggestions every step of the way and of course, making our mums and I look so amazing on my wedding day!
Our hair and make up still looked so good at the end of the day despite all the fun and dancing!
She also has such an amicable personality and was an absolute joy to speak with.
Thank you so much Yuki!!
