I am born and bred in North Yorkshire and at 16 I left school to pursue my dream of becoming a hairdresser. I completed a 3 year apprenticeship with Saks and I loved every minute of it. It was an absolute privilege to be trained by the highest standard of hairdressers. Since qualifying 6 years ago, I have worked in various salons as a senior stylist, during this time I also completed my fashion media and bridal makeup course with DFMA Make up academy which was another dream come true. At the end of 2018 I decided I would try and create my own business another massive goal of mine!

I started Poppy Lear Makeup Artistry And Hairdressing and I have never looked back I am living out all my dreams working on bridal catwalk shows and having my own work featured in Magazines. I thank all of my clients and beautiful brides for all their ongoing support. You will never know how much it all means to me!
