  • Donna was absolutely fabulous. I contacted her 5 weeks out from my day and she was so quick to respond to let me know she had availability just to ease my panic. She arrived early that morning. She is so easy to chat to, she was so organised but laid back. Made the morning so easy and chill. The hairstyles were exactly what we wanted, despite no trials. Highly highly recommend Donna.

  • Donna got thrown in the deep end with an early morning call for my bridal party!!! I could not recommend Donna more. We got married in October in Loughrea. She arrived to the venue with a pep in her step and a smile on her face. From the moment she entered the room she calmed me down and listened exactly to what I wanted. She was happy to work along side me to achieve the look I had in mind, and with thick long hair and no trial, Donna left me feeling amazing and made sure I was happy through out she talked me through what she was doing and what products. The bridesmaids wanted similar to me but Donna was able to recognise this and suggested a little change for them so it wasn't exactly the same as mine. Donna listened to my mam and aunt and done exactly what they wanted to their liking. Donna hung around while I was getting dressed to make sure we didn't need any touch ups. I truly believe there's a reason for everything and all 5 of us could not have been happier with our hair!!!!! Thank you Donna!

    Pauline

  • Donna is an incredible hair stylist! I knew as soon as I got engaged that it would be Donna that would take care of my bridal party and I on my wedding day. Donna listened to all of our requests and knew exactly what would suit each of us on the day. Everyone was so happy with how their hair turned out and it lasted through all the dancing. Her relaxed nature made us feel at ease on the morning while also having great fun together! Donna is very talented and is always upskilling, proving she is passionate at what she does! She’s like family and I couldn’t recommend her enough!

    Lauren

  • Donna was incredible from start to finish! Communication was great and any questions I had she was happy to answer. The result on the day was better than I hoped for. Everyone was not only complimenting my hair but the bridesmaids and mother of the groom also. Donna is a lovely person and a very talented hair stylist. Couldn't recommend her enough!

    Rachel

  • The mother of the bride (my mam) said it was like having another daughter in the room for the morning. Donna fitted right in and nothing was too much to ask. Not only is Donna extremely talented and able to create which ever style you would like to perfection, she is calm, kind and fun which is the perfect mix of everything you need on the morning of your wedding. Donna is professional and I couldn’t recommend her more

    Elaine

  • Excellent from start to finish. Game me and my bridal party exactly what we wanted. Couldn’t have asked for anymore. She even cleaned my rings for me the morning of!! She is always totally relaxed as well as great criac and knows exactly what she's doing. Donna is constantly upskilling and for me that is a true professional. Would highly recommend.

  • Donna provided a real professional & personal service, she slipped right into the craic the morning of the wedding and kept the flow of ladies going to make all our hair look amazing. I would highly recommend Donna if your looking for a professional, genuine & fun experience. Donna also helped with the nerves we had a really lovely time with her.

    Lena

  • From the moment I contacted Donna, I was confident that she was willing to listen to my wishes and concerns as a bride. She guided me in a most professional way in helping me to realise my ideal hair style for my wedding day. The morning of my wedding Donna arrived on time, worked with my bridesmaids, mother, aunt, flower girl and other family members in a very professional, reassuring and calm manner. Donna played an integral part in insuring all members of the bridal party looked their best for photographs taken in the morning and indeed throughout the day. Her caring, gentle and pleasant nature made everyone feel confident and relaxed throughout the morning before my wedding. I would highly recommend Donna as a hairstylist. Thank you Donna.

  • Donna was amazing. From the minute she walked into my house the morning of my wedding I immediately felt at ease. She has such a warm and bubbly presence that would cause any shred of nerves to disappear. She was so professional from start to finish. From listening to my wishes and guiding me at my hair trial to recommending the correct hair care and products I required, I felt like I could not have been in more capable hands. My bridesmaids and flower girl were all thrilled with their hair and Donna attributed to my wedding morning in such a pleasant way. I cannot recommend this stylist enough. Best of luck with everything Donna!
