About Me

Bridal Hair and Makeup Artist

Gail Gardner Wedding Hairstylist and Makeup Artist -  professionally trained at WELLA Hair Studios in London by world acclaimed Patrick Cameron, renowned for his many styles on the cat walk.

I am a Multi Award Winning Professional Hair and Makeup Artist based in Writtle, Chelmsford and have been working in the wedding industry for over 20 years.

Let me take care of all your hair and makeup needs on your wedding day.  Let it be my responsibility to make sure you and your bridal party look absolutely stunning on your wedding day and help make your wedding morning go as smooth and stress free as possible.  I honestly believe I have the best job in the world,  being a part of one of the most important days of your life, it's only natural that I will want you to look and feel amazing all day long.

Trials are held at my premises from Monday to Thursday mornings and are usually complete by midday. On arrival at my premises you will most likely be greeted by chickens, a pheasant and a few ducks. My cat Moses also usually makes an appearance too, when we have visitors, so please let me know in advance if you have any cat allergies as he will be seeking lots of attention.

I am very calm, and patient, and work quietly, professionally and will help eliminate any stress from your wedding morning by ensuring you have ample time to get ready.  Timing is key when it comes to a wedding morning and I will make sure your bridal party is ready in plenty of time without any stress.

I carry out one wedding per day so you won’t find me rushing off anywhere on your wedding day.

Don’t be surprised to find me helping you into your wedding dress or snapping away with my camera to help capture memorable moments if your photographer isn’t around.  After your wedding day, I will ask you to leave honest feedback on my Reviews page on google or my website.

I am relaxed, friendly and approachable and will love hearing all about your exciting Hair and Makeup ideas.  On your wedding day I work quietly and professionally and I am very much in the background of all the excitement. I will be focussed and my eye will be on the time the entire morning.

Your trial will end around lunchtime. Most brides go for lunch at one of the local tea rooms, which are 2 minutes away. They are called The Lordship Tearooms and are part of the Wilkinson Jam Group or Robyns Nest, which is on Writtle Village Green.
