Hello my name is Megan Gough, owner-operator of Pinned Up Ltd. As you may already know, Pinned Up is an on-site hair and makeup company that strives to create your desired look in the convenience of your own space. I started Pinned Up Ltd because this is what I love to do. I didn't always know that until one day I decided that I didn't want a nursing career and made the jump to start cosmetology school. As a student, I loved creating different hairstyles, especially for formal events. I wanted every style to be artistic, different, and to stand out from the rest. Once I graduated, I started working in a salon full time. Everyone I worked with quickly found out that I had a passion for updos. Every homecoming, prom, and wedding I looked forward to. I describe those occasions as "game day" because I get that same feeling I had playing sports through high school and college. That might be a funny way to describe it, but I ALWAYS looked forward to game day. All the prepping and it is finally here! When it came time to get married myself, I had so much fun getting ready at the venue with my closest friends and family. As the morning progressed and everyone was finishing up their hair and makeup, I almost didn't want it to be over! But of course I couldn't wait to FINALLY wear my dress and walk down the aisle to see my future husband. It was the best day of my life. After the wedding I realized I wanted to be in the wedding business. I fell in love with everything about it. About 1 year later I decided it would be so much fun to give brides the same scenario I had getting ready for my wedding day. I immediately knew this was what I wanted to do with my career. It was another jump I had to take. It wasn't going to be easy, but I finally did it, I jumped! Today, I am so thankful to have a job that I LOVE to do. Every part is fun for me, traveling to the bride, sharing those moments before, helping her and her bridesmaids feel beautiful. In the past year... show more
I was able to do all of my friends' weddings and that was truly a privilege to help make their day easier and share those moments with them. To everyone who has allowed me to be a part of their wedding day I want to thank you. My friends and family have been the best support and I would not be here without them and I want to thank you too (you know who you are:)). I am excited to continue this journey and help future brides to feel their best on their big day. show more
