Carol Fairfield Bridal Make Up & Hair. Covering the whole of Scotland and the U.K offering makeup and hair for Brides as well as working in Fashion, Film and TV in Scotland, Europe and South Africa.
Carol Fairfield is an international bridal hair and makeup artist based in Glasgow, specialising in luxury, camera-ready bridal beauty for weddings throughout Scotland, the UK and worldwide.
With more than 23 years of professional experience across bridal, fashion, film and television, Carol brings an exceptional level of expertise to every wedding morning. Her bridal style ranges from beautifully natural and radiant makeup to soft glam and full luxury glam, with hair styling individually designed to complement your features, wedding dress, accessories and overall bridal vision.
Carol’s extensive professional background means she understands not only how your bridal hair and makeup should look in person, but how it will translate beautifully in professional photography and film. Every look is designed to feel comfortable, photograph flawlessly and remain polished throughout your wedding celebrations.
For destination brides, Carol is available throughout the UK and internationally, including weddings across Europe in destinations such as Italy, France, Greece and Spain.
Every bride receives a personalised experience designed around their individual style, wedding and beauty preferences.
Carol works with her brides to create a complete bridal look, combining professional makeup artistry with expert hair styling. From naturally radiant bridal beauty and soft glam to sophisticated full-glam looks, each style is tailored specifically to the bride rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach.
Bridal trials provide an opportunity to explore your preferred hair and makeup look before your wedding, including trying different hair accessories and discussing whether additional length or volume would help achieve your chosen hairstyle.
On the wedding morning, Carol brings her extensive professional experience to your chosen location, creating a relaxed yet organised environment while ensuring your bridal hair and makeup is beautifully finished and ready for both the ceremony and photography.

Carol was amazing! Contacted very last minute as I was let down and carol fitted both me and my mum in for hair and make up! We got so many compliments and stilled looked as good coming home & this morning!
Carol went out of her way this morning at 6:15 to come do my hair and make up at my home, what an amazing talent she has, I honestly couldn’t be happier with both, I highly recommend xx
I was let down right at the last minute for a wedding today, travelled down from Aberdeen so was in a huge state of panic. Carol could not of been more helpful and genuinely cared about being able to help. She drove through from Glasgow to Edinburgh at the last minute and could not of made me feel more comfortable. She was on her way and with me as soon as possible without a bother. Once she was here she could not of been more amazing. I feel like a million dollars when this morning I didn’t think I’d be able to get my makeup and hair done at all. Can’t stop looking at myself in the mirror.
Booked Carol last minute for a friends wedding. She was very accommodating and the service was amazing. Everyone commented on my hair and make up including the bride. She made me feel relaxed and at ease and made look and feel amazing. Would definitely recommend. Xx
Carol is a fantastic make up artist. Very professional, listens to what you want and makes you feel and look amazing. Very reliable and such a lovely lady, inside and out xx
Carol was amazing. I had issues with the original make up artist I had booked for my wedding. Carol was able to step in and was so great. I was able to arrange a make up trial and Carol was able to drive to our wedding location in Tarbert. The make up was amazing and exactly what I was looking for. Everyone in my bridal party and guests who had their make up done loved the finished product. I highly recommend Carol. Thank you so much Carol for everything and contributing to make my day the most perfect day.
I recently booked carol for wedding guest hair / makeup. I don’t wear a lot of makeup and was conscious of looking too ‘done’. I loved the finished look, Carol nailed the beachy waves and natural & glowy makeup brief I gave. I got lots of compliments on the day and it lasted all night (until 3am) into the bargain! Highly recommend
I can not recommend this lady enough? Carol is absolutely fantastic and what she done to my face and hair was amazing? I got so many compliments and a few people did not recognise me? If I won the lottery she would be my personal make up artist and hair stylist? Thank you Carol you are the best In the business.
I booked Carol for hair and make-up for my brothers wedding day. She did 3 of us at a fast pace and gave us a stress free morning. She applied a full face of make-up with lashes and did 3 amazing hair up styles, lasting all day. We all felt fantastic. I would highly recommend her.
Got carol to do my make up for a wedding and it was amazing she’s so professional and fantastic at what she does would definitely recommend her to anyone
