Planning Your Bridal Hair
A little planning ahead can make your wedding hair appointment much more relaxed. We recommend booking your bridal hair trial a few weeks or months before your wedding, particularly if you're getting married during a busy season. This gives you plenty of time to try different ideas, make adjustments and feel confident in your chosen style before the big day.
For your trial, bring screenshots or photos of hairstyles you like, along with details of your dress, veil and any hair accessories you plan to wear. If you already have your veil or accessories, bring them along so we can see how they work with your chosen hairstyle and create a look that complements your whole wedding outfit.
Plaited Bridal Hair
Fishtail braids and chunky bo-ho plaits are popular, stylish looks for brides however, there is a new kid on the block. Bubble braids offer a cool, modern twist on a classic wedding hairstyle. They are simply, fluffed up plaits that have been separated by elastics to create a loose, relaxed, messy hairstyle.
Braided wedding hairstyles are not just for long hair, there are countless ways to incorporate a beautiful plait into a short hairstyle.
Curly Wedding Hairstyles
To enable your stylist to get a clearer idea of how you would like to wear your hair on your wedding day, it’s a good idea to create a bridal mood board. Simply collect your favourite hair images and bring them along with you to your appointment. By working together we can trial different bridal looks and create your dream hair.
Curly & wavy wedding hairstyles are so versatile as we can leave the hair down, create a gorgeous ‘half-up half-down’ look, pin up sections of your hair or add some pretty plaits into the style.From romantic curls to relaxed beach babe waves we are confident we can deliver a look you'll love.
Special Occasion Hair
Why not try adding a few hair accessories to pep up your look? The humble topknot, for example, feels a little less mundane when it’s teamed with a handful of beautiful, on-trend hair clips, whilst a sleek, ponytail feels youthful and chic when finished off with a glitzy headband.
Whilst you are in the salon why not freshen up your hair colour with a glossing treatment or add some sun-kissed highlights to brighten up your existing hair colour?
Vintage Wedding Hair
If you are having a special bridal theme or have chosen a unique bridal dress or outfit, why not let our wedding hair experts work with you to find a wedding hairstyle that complements the overall effect you are looking to achieve?
We can deliver stunning hairstyles which incorporate 1940s waves, glamorous Hollywood curls as well as classic chignons and French rolls.
Beauty Treatments For Brides
If you have found that organising the wedding of your dreams has left you feeling stressed and your skin frazzled, why not enjoy a stress-relieving facial to ease away the tension and rehydrate the skin? We also LOVE creating fabulous gel nails, whether you want bold polish, discreet nude nails or a simple file & polish our nail specialists can deliver a look you'll love.

I’ve never booked bridal or occasion hair before - can I have a trial before the wedding or event?
«Absolutely. A bridal or occasion hair trial is a great way to explore different styles, discuss your dress, hair type and overall look, and make sure you feel completely confident ahead of the big day. Trials also allow us to recommend any preparation, treatments or haircare that could help your style look its best on the day itself.
My hair doesn’t usually hold curls or styled looks very well - will my hairstyle last all day?
«Our stylists will create your look using professional techniques and products chosen specifically for your hair type and the style you want to achieve. During your consultation, we’ll also advise on any prep, treatments or styling products that can help improve hold, reduce frizz and keep your hair looking flawless for longer.
I’m not sure which bridal or prom hairstyle will suit me, can your stylists help me choose?
«Of course. We’ll consider everything from your face shape and hair length to your outfit, accessories and personal style. Whether you want something soft and romantic, sleek and polished or more modern and effortless, we’ll help create a look that feels like you.
Should I have colour or hair treatments done before my wedding or special event?
«Healthy hair always creates the best foundation for styling, so we often recommend hair colour appointments or conditioning treatments in the lead-up to weddings, proms and special occasions. We can create a personalised plan to help your hair look glossy, healthy and photo-ready for the day.
My hair gets frizzy or flat in certain weather, how can I keep my style looking good all day?
«Weather, humidity and heat can definitely affect styled hair, especially during long events. We use professional styling and finishing products to help maintain your look throughout the day, and we can also recommend take-home products such as heat protection, smoothing products or anti-frizz sprays to help keep your style looking its best.
We may also recommend a keratin treatment ahead of your event to help smooth the hair, reduce humidity-related frizz and make styling more manageable and long-lasting.
Can you work with hair extensions for bridal or occasion styles?
«If you already wear extensions, let us know when booking your consultation. Extensions can provide additional length, volume or texture for certain hairstyles, and we'll advise whether they are suitable for the look you're hoping to achieve.
Can you create prom and special occasion hairstyles?
«Yes. We offer hairstyling for proms, parties, graduations, balls and other special occasions. We can create everything from polished curls and waves to updos, braids and more creative styles, with the look tailored to your hair and outfit.
Should I wash my hair before my bridal or occasion hair appointment?
«This depends on the hairstyle and your hair type. In some cases, hair that isn't freshly washed can hold certain styles more easily, while other looks may work better on clean hair. We'll advise you on how to prepare your hair when you book or during your trial.
How long does bridal or special occasion hair styling take?
«The time needed depends on the hairstyle, hair length and thickness, and whether you're having one or several people styled. We'll discuss timings when you book so there is enough time to create each look without rushing on the day.
Can you create occasion hairstyles on short or fine hair?
«Yes. Your hair length and thickness will influence which styles are most suitable, but there are plenty of options for shorter and finer hair. During your consultation, we'll consider your hair's natural texture and how well it holds a style before recommending an approach.
Do you offer styling for bridesmaids and wedding guests?
«Yes. We can create wedding hairstyles for brides, bridesmaids and guests, whether you’re looking for coordinated styles or something more individual. We can discuss everyone's hair type, preferences and the overall wedding look when planning the styles.
