From bridal specialists and editorial stylists to beauty therapists and industry veterans, our team is made up of multi-talented professionals who share one thing in common: they genuinely care about making you look and feel your absolute best.
Hi I’m Marie…
A multi-award-winning, internationally published professional hair & makeup artist based in beautiful Wiltshire, and the founder of MK Hair & Makeup. With decades of experience in the hair and beauty industry, I’ve dedicated my career to making women feel confident, radiant, and entirely themselves—just with a little more glow.
I trained in Media Makeup & Hairstyling at Plymouth University and later refined my craft through further training with Beauty Call Academy London, Jane Iredale, and the internationally renowned Kristina Gasperas Academy. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of working with Disney, Intel, VIP clients, and even a few celebrities—and my work has been featured in Vogue, Brides Magazine, and Wedding Ideas Magazine.
Over the years, I’ve been humbled to receive a number of industry awards, and I’ve also been a finalist multiple times in the English Hair & Beauty Awards, Whitewed Directory Awards, and for Most Inspiring Business Person of the Year.
The biggest achievement in all of this? It’s you.
It’s that magical moment when a client sees their reflection and says, “Wow.” When they feel beautiful, empowered, and completely themselves—just elevated. That smile, that hug, that glow? It’s why I do what I do.
I truly love this work, and I can’t imagine doing anything else. I hope this little introduction helps you feel at ease—because I can’t wait to help you look and feel your most beautiful, confident self.
