Testimonials

DJ Aleks Mac, One More Song DJs

“I did one of Danee's private make up masterclasses to learn how to do a glam look for when I DJ. The whole experience was amazing. Danee's home studio is perfectly equipped and I felt instantly relaxed as soon as I walked in. There was even cheese! I picked up so many good tricks in just that one session, as well as recommendations of great products to use, which I really appreciated, as it's a bloody minefield out there. Would definitely recommend it to anyone - from make up novice through to those who feel confident with make up but want to learn how to master a specific look. Danee is an absolute legend and I have already booked her in to do my hair and make up for a special upcoming event!”

Heather Wain, Killer Bride

“If you want a skilled hair and makeup artist who will highlight your natural features while still making you look glamorous, look no further. Danee from Killer Queen did my hair and makeup for my wedding, and I couldn’t have been happier. I booked a trial to test out the hair and makeup beforehand, and Danee used her expertise and attention to detail to find the perfect look. On the day, she came early and prepared. She helped me stay relaxed, and had me laughing as she was getting me ready. The look came out identical to the trial, and I felt so glamorous. I’ve had so many compliments on how my hair and makeup looked, and that’s all thanks to Danee’s skills. Book her now, seriously.”

Bec Baints, VA

“Killer Queen Beauty and Creative Studio did my hair and make up for a branding headshot photo shoot that I had. Danee was absolutely incredible to work with. She was warm and welcoming from the outset and made the entire process very easy and relaxing. I was also incredibly happy with the end result; she absolutely made me feel like a queen for my photo shoot!”

Emily Stowell

“Danee is incredible! I did a masterclass and it was a morning filled with compliments, expert advice and hands-on experience. Danee is SO informative and SO kind and was very patient with all of my questions. Her home studio is professional and set up like a dream with all the products you could ever need. I walked out looking amazing and feeling confident and excited to practice my new skills. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and giving me the skills, confidence and resources to use my makeup effectively.”

Gisella Donato

“Danee is absolutely amazing, I did a masterclass with her and she was very professional, inspirational, motivating and so much fun. By the end of the lesson, I felt like I could achieve any look, her guidance and positivity were fantastic. Her makeup studio is a girl’s dream. I felt very welcomed and her knowledge is at a high standard. I would definitely recommend her to everyone”

Iseult McButler, Killer Bride

“Simply amazing - from the trial session, which was so fun to the big day itself - perfection. Danee actually listened to what I said about make up / hair - I’ve had bad experiences before so am always nervous when getting this done but she put me at ease & I knew I was in good hands. On the day itself it was the most chilled, relaxed afternoon getting ready - we had all the time in the world & it was lovely to just sit there knowing Danee had it all under control. The end result was exactly what I wanted & I loved it. Thank you so much for being a part of our big day”

Zoe Yeoman, Killer Bride

“Danee did the most incredible job on my hair & makeup for my wedding, as well as both my mum & mother in law’s makeup. Danee made me feel like the best version of me!!! I felt glowing and glam without feeling overdone. Just perfect! She works like a true artist and her makeup & hair products were outstanding and great quality. AND she’s a lovely person too! Could seriously not be happier!”

Rachel King, Killer Bride

“Danee is a powerhouse and 100% a killer queen! The KQ ethos and branding stood out to me, and I’m so happy I reached out to her! She made me feel so welcome and really listened to what I asked for when it came to my personal make-up preferences. On the big day Danee was so lovely making me feel calm and relaxed! We were all over the moon and felt beautiful whilst still very much us. I would 200% recommend Danee to anyone looking for hair & make-up in Melbourne!”

Leesa Martini, Killer Bride

“Danee did the makeup for my wedding day. She was amazing!!

I wanted a natural bridal look and she absolutely nailed the brief. She was also very accommodating and flexible with my 7 bridesmaids and everyone was so happy with the result!

Highly recommend! She’s incredible!”

Laura Holland-Braddick, Killer Bride

“Danee was amazing both in the lead up and on our wedding day. Danee nailed my hair, and my bridesmaids hair, she was such a great, calming and kind energy on the day and was also so professional and went out of her way to help and put me at ease in the lead up to the wedding. Not only is she talented at what she does, but she is just a genuine, down to earth person - the type of energy you need around you on your wedding day!”

Charlotte - Charlotte Isaac HQ

“I booked Danee to help me get ready before my Brand Photoshoot, and she was incredible! We arranged for her to come to me which made my morning so relaxing and easy, and I had so much more confidence in front of the camera than I thought I would. Thank you so much Danee - you're amazing!!”

Marie Nadal Sharma - Them, You and Me

“I was lucky enough to come across Danee from Killer Queen Creative. I had never done a makeup session before and I was quite nervous. Danee was very reassuring and followed my requirements for a natural look. The results were beyond my expectations! She is a glamagician. I highly recommend her.”

Jenny Joy, Celebrant & Reiki Practitioner

“I want to tell you about a really excellent person who can teach you to love your face. A few weeks ago I went along to a workshop at Killer Queen Creative and I learned how to do makeup, properly. I learned SO MUCH. I made friends with my face. I learned how to enhance the nicest bits and to help the bits I wasn't as in love with to feel better. A safe, welcoming, informative space - and a GREAT investment in my self esteem!”

Priscilla Thompson

“Highly recommend Danee’s 1:1 masterclass!! After years of being out-of-touch with the makeup world, I re-entered to a plethora of new products, new brands and even new eyebrow styles! I was completely overwhelmed. Through her masterclass, Danee provided the guidance, personal advice and understanding that suited my needs. Danee truly loves what she does and it shines through her work! “

Madeleine Baud, Designer/ Illustrator & Copywriter

“I did Danee's makeup masterclass and it was truly brilliant. Danee is welcoming, patient and knowledgeable and makes you feel like a million bucks! If you want answers to all the makeup questions you're too scared to ask, give Danee a call. I've gone from totally clueless to I got this!”
