Roxy D'Souza is a makeup artist and hair stylist working across Crayford and the Bexley side of DA1. She travels to you with everything she needs, and covers hair as well as makeup, so a group needs one artist rather than two.
Crayford is the useful one to get right on travel. The address is written Crayford, Dartford and the postcode is DA1, but Crayford itself is in the London Borough of Bexley, so it is inside Greater London and there is no travel charge. Dartford, just to the east, is outside London and does carry one.
More than fifteen years in the chair and more than five hundred clients. Crayford is about twenty minutes from her studio in Thamesmead.
Haberdashers' Crayford Academy on Iron Mill Lane runs to eighteen with its own sixth form, and Beths Grammar is a few minutes away in Bexley, so there is a strong prom season across the DA1 and DA5 border. A group in one house is quoted per person and planned into one running order.
Crayford Community Centre above the library in Town Hall Square takes up to ninety in the main hall and is set up for birthdays and baby showers, the hall at St Mary of the Crays on Old Road takes up to a hundred and fifty, and Crayford Social Club on the Waterside has a refurbished hall with its own bar. For anything grander, Hall Place on Bourne Road, a Grade I listed Tudor house a few minutes west, takes birthdays and anniversaries. For christenings there is St Paulinus on Perry Street, a twelfth century church, and St Mary of the Crays.
Tell her the time you need to be ready and she will work the timings back from it.

Crayford is inside Greater London, so there is no travel charge here even though the postcode is a Dartford one. Bridal makeup, occasion makeup and makeup lessons are all booked the same way.
No. Crayford has a DA1 Dartford postcode but sits in the London Borough of Bexley, so it counts as London and travel is free. Dartford itself is outside London and carries a fee of £10 to £20.
Yes. She works on location and brings everything with her.
Yes. A group in one house is quoted per person and planned into one running order so everyone finishes together.
Both, herself, which for a group usually saves an hour.
