I am a Make Up & Prosthetics for Performance Graduate from London College of Fashion graduating in 2014. I specialise in wig and headdress designing and making. I am skilled in foundation making and knotting; both wig and postiche (wigs, Beards, Moustaches, etc). All of my work is handmade and designed by myself. I am trained in special effects makeup and beauty makeup. I have experience working in the hair, wigs and makeup department at The Royal Exchange Theatre Manchester, The Royal Northern College of Music and Birmingham Repertory Theatre. I have 3 years experience working as a self employed wig and postiche maker. I am available for commissioned projects now.
