I have 20 years hairstyling experience in all aspects of hairdressing, and more recently gained a certificate in Make-up and Hair artistry for TV, Film, Theatre and Fashion at The Iver Academy, Pinewood studios. I gained consistent above average scores for my work at the Academy. My final appraisal spoke of my positive approach, striving for perfection, pride in work, exemplary hair work and people skills. I have a reputation for being a good listener and doing my utmost to deliver what people want. Trained in - Presenter/character/ SFX makeup TV and theatre, facial hair, bald caps, laying on hair, tattoo coverage, body painting, wig applying and dressing. I also enjoy styling and being on the other side of the camera as a SA/extra and co present a local radio show. I love to have fun but take my work seriously. Please feel free to ask any questions.

Hair, Makeup & Styling

I am always striving for my work to be the best it can be. I learn something new on all jobs.
I listen to what you want and am not happy unless you are.

The Iver Academy passed on some feed back they had received, from a couple of the jobs they had sent me on, I was delighted. -

‘A few weeks back I got in touch with the Iver Academy to see if I could get a make-up artist and shortly afterwards heard back from Jackie. We shot the short film over the weekend, so I just wanted to get i touch and say a huge thank you for providing me with someone as fantastic as Jackie. We needed someone to do some aging make-up for one of the lead characters and I couldn't believe just how good Jackie's work was. She was very professional, friendly and most of all incredibly talented. I will 100% be contacting her again if I need any make-up work in future.’


‘Just wanted to drop a line to say how incredibly happy my cast and crew were with Jackie Witney, who ended up assisting us with makeup for our shoot yesterday.
Jackie was punctual, had great ideas, executed hair and makeup wonderfully well, and was just a real pleasure to have on set. Very accommodating and kind. I just thought I'd let you know how happy we were with her on the day - she exceeded our expectations and we will definitely be working with her lots in the future!
Thanks again for arranging to have one of your grads get in contact - I'm very pleased!’
