At heart, I’ve always been deeply passionate about styling, especially when it comes to the uniqueness of bridal hair and makeup. Over the years, I’ve been fortunate enough to not only carve a niche in Germany as a full-time bridal stylist but also to master every hair texture that’s come my way. In addition, with my expertise working with all hair lengths and also hair extensions, no challenge is too big or small.
After securing my German “Master of Hairdressing” in 2005 and becoming a certified Makeup Artist in 2010, I never stopped learning. Every year, I make it a point to train with the best in the business worldwide. Why? Because I want to ensure I can make your bridal dream look come alive. Since 2015 I’ve been humbled to guide and train many up-and-coming bridal stylists from Germany, Austria and Switzerland, with quite a few of them now leading their field.

I would never describe myself as a pure artist in my profession. I lean more towards the terms “crafts(wo)man” or “technician.” A true artist typically brings their own visions to life, often without regard for precision or perfection, as that often defines their artwork.
However, as an expert in my craft, I can bring someone else’s vision to life, incorporating my skills and experience, using the essential techniques, executing these flawlessly, and paying attention to the smallest of details. To me, that’s the fundamental difference and what I always focus on with my clients.
my styling Philosophy
Write me via the contact form and tell me more about location and date of your event.
You will receive a personal offer for a complete styling at your venue. Fixed price, no hidden costs.
Say yes! After a “yes” from you and a reservation payment, your day is booked!
Enjoy the most beautiful YOU on your special day, exclusive and stress-free, by one of the best in the world.
Currently I serve brides across Europe. However, the wedding/ event venue must be located in a max. 1-hour driving radius to the nearest airport.
A complete styling consists of bridal hair and makeup. After contacting me through my website form, you will receive a reply with all the necessary information. You will be asked to fill out a short form. With these infos, I will then send you an individualized offer for you and your guests, all-included.
Offers outside of the Algarve (Portugal) start at 2.500€.
Yes. All individualized offers contain all costs, incl. service and travel expenses. There are no hidden fees or extras.
Of course. On the discovery call we will discuss how many guests are to be styled as this reflects in the offer. Should spontaneous/ additional requests arise on the day of the wedding, then this is usually no problem either. However this is always subject to time availability.
While I do not offer an on-site (live) trial before the wedding day, we will have a virtual call together to discuss your vision, wishes and all relevant aspects of your styling beforehand.
Yes. You will receive this info in detail via email after inquiry.
I am completely flexible and will be there as early as you need me. This will be communicated in full detail prior to styling date.
If necessary, I can provide bridal hair accessories such as tiaras, hairpins, combs, headbands, and other decorative pieces. This will be discussed on the discovery call.
Of course. If hair extensions are needed due to the desired hairstyle, these will be provided by me after prior discussion. If simply “thickening” of hair is sufficient, I usually use synthetic hair. The use of hair pads is also possible. A detailed consultation on this will be done beforehand on our virtual call.
Lash extensions, or eyelash thickening, are non-permanent real hair clusters with approximately 24-hour durability. This is a great way to give your eyes more expression with longer and fuller lashes.
Of course you can choose to opt out of the eyelash service. However, since this is complimentary, the price of your individual wedding offer remains the same.
The hair must be freshly washed and completely dry. Please do not use heavy hair masks, as these can weigh the hair down. A spray treatment on the ends is the best solution for hair that is difficult to comb. Then blow dry completely. It is important that there is no residual moisture in the hair. This would lead to a shorter lifespan of the hairstyle, which would be both unfortunate and frustrating. Anything further will be discussed directly. Don’t worry, I will remind you of everything necessary before the big day.
I always recommend a facial scrub the evening before. This removes dry flakes from the skin, resulting in makeup that looks better and lasts longer. Ideally, eyebrows should already be plucked a day before as well, as this usually leads to unnecessary redness right before walking down the aisle.
I will arrive at the previously agreed location at the arranged time. The complete styling for the bride usually takes about 2 to 3 hours. After the makeup is applied, the hair is styled. The wedding dress is put on at the end. It is important that we are undisturbed during this time, as this allows for a smooth and timely process. The maximum of one additional person is allowed in the room during styling.
A reservation fee will apply to all bookings. This is to be paid online or via bank transfer if you would like to lock-in your date.
The outstanding payment will be made on-site on the day of the wedding/event after the styling is completed. Additional service costs are billed separately and are also paid for that day on-site. (Please be advised, similar to a hair salon, there is no pay-later option.)
It truly depends on multiple variables over the course of the day /evening. Weather conditions for example play a huge role. However, because I work exclusively with professional and high-quality products, such as water-resistant makeup, both hairstyle and makeup usually last the entire evening and often even throughout the night.
In my many testimonials, you can read about how many customers were satisfied with the ‘durability’ of their styling. However, a guarantee can never be given. Just do me a favor and avoid a convertible ride… True story 🙂
Although I did not take all the photos myself, you can rest assured that all the stylings you see on my website are exclusively my work. You will not find any ‘stock’ photos on my site.
Send me your request today via the contact form on this website! I will get back to you with all the necessary information.
