Danielle Thomas

Hi, I'm Danielle — founder of House of Doll Studios & Training Academy, based in Bedwas, Caerphilly. I started my beauty journey over five years ago with a passion for makeup and a dream to turn that passion into something bigger.

I trained at Guild International Training at Bella Beaute Studios before completing a year-long professional course with P. Louise Makeup Academy — one of the most respected names in the UK makeup education industry. I hold ABT-accredited qualifications in Brow Wax & Tint, Brow Lamination, and Lash Lift & Tint, as well as a Beauty Educators Diploma from Beauty Industry Approval Ltd.

In 2024, I was named Freelance Makeup Specialist of the Yearat the Welsh Hair and Beauty Awards — something I'm incredibly proud of and a testament to the standard of work we deliver here at the studio.

I have been teaching one-to-one beauty courses for over 3 years. My approach is simple: I want every student to leave feeling confident, capable, and genuinely ready to take clients. Training is never rushed, never overwhelming — everything is explained clearly and you get as much time as you need.

Whether you're booking in for a treatment or enrolling on a course, you can expect warmth, professionalism, and an experience that's totally worth it.
