Danielle Jacobs Hair and Make-up Artist

Danielle is an incredibly talented hair and makeup artist. When I first met her for my wedding trial, she listened closely to what I wanted and on the first go, created a natural look that was absolutely perfect. She made me feel really comfortable and confident too, which I really appreciated. On my wedding day, she was such a lovely, kind presence while we were getting ready and made me, my sister and my mom look and feel absolutely beautiful. She uses high quality products and is very professional. I'd highly recommend her services and would work with her again for other special occasions in a heartbeat!

Danielle is INCREDIBLE. She did my hair and make up for my wedding, and just surpassed all of my expectations - which were high to begin with!She listened to all of my feedback attentively and made SURE I felt beautiful and happy.Moreover Danielle was such a calm and beautiful energy to have around me in the morning, she put me at ease and I genuinely loved having her around.Don’t even hesitate to book her!

What a wonderful experience with stunning results from Danielle, was lovely having her do my and my bridal parties hair and makeup for my wedding. She gave me exactly what I asked for and we were all very happy with our looks.

Danielle and her team did an incredible job doing the hair and makeup for me, my mom, my sister-in-law and six bridesmaids on my wedding day. The team was very organised, but also made us feel at ease as they were all lovely and very accommodating to the look each of us wanted. Having never had my makeup done professionally, I had a trial with Danielle beforehand which was great as it helped us find what would work best for me. Danielle managed to get me looking glowy and bridal, but still able to see my freckles which I loved! The makeup lasted the whole day and night, which was a feat in the Stellenbosch heat! Thank you Danielle and your wonderful team for making us all look and feel great for the special day! xxx

Danielle, and Monique the second artist, could not have done a better job if they tried! My bridal makeup was just stunning - Danielle knew exactly what I was going for and was able to make the best recommendations on how to get to the look I wanted. Not only that, the bridesmaids hair and makeup was perfect and my Mum loved her more simple look. Danielle was also great with my niece, the flower girl and curled her hair beautifully. I could not recommend Danielle enough - thank you so much!

My wife and I chose Danielle to do our bridal hair and make up for our elopement in Cape Town. From the initial communication right through to the wedding, Danielle was very responsive and helpful throughout. As we are from Ireland it was very hard to choose a hair and make up artist we have never tried before but we are so thankful we chose Danielle, she was absolutely the best choice! My wife is very fussy about her hair and always comments that hairstylists can't get her hair to sit properly as it is quite fly away, which was even more of a concern in Cape Town's winds! Danielle assured her that she would be able to get her hair to sit and hold shape for the wedding and she did! My wife was so happy with her hair both at the trial and on the wedding day and has said that Danielle is the only person who has been able to do her hair how she wanted. She was able to have her hair down at our wedding thanks to Danielle's skills. I was also extremely happy with my hair and make up. As two brides we would highly recommend Danielle for bridal hair and make up and we also felt extremely comfortable with her so would recommend for other LGBT+ couples. Danielle is very talented and creative and we couldn't have chosen a better person. She even went the extra mile helping us with our dresses. If you are looking for a hair and make up artist then look no further! She is extremely kind and just a lovely person, she really cared about our wedding and was genuinely so excited and happy for us. We both feel like we have made a friend. Thank you for everything Danielle! <3

We had a destination wedding in Cape Town and the one thing I was stressed about was finding a make up artist and someone who can do my hair, exactly how I invisioned it. It was my first time working with a make up artist, however, Danielle made me feel so at ease. I could share my stories with her as if I had known her for years. Danielle gave me so much confidence after my trial that I didn't think I could feel even better on my wedding day. Danielle didn't just style my hair and do my make up as I wanted it, she did it all beyond what I initially invisioned. I had a calm over me on my wedding day that I cannot describe and it was due to Danielle's presence and the way she managed 5 peoples hair and make up within the time she allocated. Danielle is very professional and I could not recommend her more.

Danielle is by far the best hairstylist and make up artist I’ve ever used! I was fortunate enough to meet the lovely Danielle when I was a bridesmaid for a good friend of mine - she was so friendly and warm and made me feel so comfortable. When I saw her amazing work and the way she interacted with everyone, I knew that I had found my hair and makeup artist for when I got engaged! Danielle did my hair and make up for our engagement photo shoot - she made me feel so much more confident and knew exactly what to do so that I would look beautiful and slightly more natural for our engagement shoot. She is thankfully also doing my hair and make up for my wedding coming up and I have full confidence in her that it’s going to be incredible as always. She has also been extremely accommodating and helpful with me when I asked about make up products and additional services leading up to the wedding. If you are looking for a hair or make up artist for any occasion, then Danielle is definitely the person for you! X

Danielle was the best MUA & Hairstylist experience I’ve ever had, I am from the UK and travelled from Dubai for my wedding. I also had 2 bridesmaids & mum & Danielle did all our hair & makeup to perfection, was so lovely & really made me feel like the most beautiful bride! I can’t recommend Danielle enough for brides overseas & in SA she really is awesome!

Danielle is a true artist and what a beautiful lady, both inside and out. When I met her for my trial, I hadn't even sent her any pictures of what I wanted at all. We had a brief chat on my hair and makeup, I showed her one picture and wow did she create magic!! I was so happy that we didn't need to change anything at all.On the day of the wedding she was a dream. My bridesmaids loved her and there were no issues with timing at all (despite me having a million ladies who needed hair and makeup done)!I had a bit of an emotional moment as she began my makeup and she just took it in her stride and helped calm me down with her gentle manner and kindness. I absolutely recommend Danielle to any bride who wants to feel beautiful, but also still feel like yourself. She is a truly talented and wonderful person to have with you on your big day.
