SOPHIA

Hair & Make Up Artist

Growing up with creativity and design surrounding her – her father was a bespoke Saville Row tailor and her mother was John Galliano’s sample seamstress, all Sophia knew was fashion and trends. From this tender age and watching ‘old school’ movies, all that captured her was the hair and makeup – Audrey Hepburn’s liner, lashes and sleek bun (think Breakfast at Tiffanys), Mary Poppins’ lined upper lids, flawless skin and peachy lips and Madonna’s curls, red lips and sculpted cheeks.

In her teenage years, Sophia started experimenting – mastering the liquid liner and the ombré lip. She straightened her hair using just an iron, ironing board and towel (in the days before GHD) and this is when she found my true passion. She wanted to become a hair and makeup artist.

 

With the backing of her wonderful family she went on to study fashion styling for hair and makeup at the London College of Fashion. These were some of her best years, with all the projects, networking, and collaborating with amateur and professional photographers, stylists, designers, and models, she gained some wonderful friends and started to gather images for her portfolio! This was Sophia’s stepping stone into the real world!

 

Here are some of the companies Sophia has worked with – WWE tour 2019, National Television Awards 19/20/21, Lancôme trainer,  lecturer at London College of Fashion, London Fashion Week, The Baftas, Hollywood Dreams bridal collection, Muubaa,) Bathroom origins director – corporate, Charles et Figuero tailors, Daily star, Just Seventeen.

Sophia is amazing. From the moment I met her I knew I wanted her to be the one to make me up on my special day. Sophia listened to what I was after, made suggestions whenever I was unsure and managed to create the exact look I was after. She is professional in what she does, makes you feel comfortable and she makes the experience enjoyable.

Sophia is always the first person I and any of my family members turn to when it comes to needing our hair and makeup done. Thank You so much for everything sophia. Its inspiring to see how passionate you are about your work!”

I first met Sophia ten years ago when on an impulse, as she was doing my close friend Emily’s wedding make up I asked if she could do my makeup too and she said yes!

Since then she has had me hooked!

She listens to what I want (although she’s desperate to do more with my make up) and that’s what I love about her!! I love the way she does my make up and she is also a great reliable artist!!”
