We have so much fun getting creative on these days!
-
How far in advance should I book my trial?You can book your trial in at anytime, however we recommend your trial to take place 4-8 weeks before your wedding day. A trial questionnaire will be sent to you 4 and half months prior to your wedding date which will ask for images of your most favoured styles, what your hair type is like, etc. Once this is completed we will be able to book in your trial.
-
Will you come to my venue?Absolutely, no problem at all. I charge 0.65 pence per mile after 20 miles. My team and I currently cover the following areas: Gloucestershire Herefordshire Warwickshire Wiltshire Worcestershire Surrey London Somerset Monmouthshire Shropshire Oxfordshire West Midlands South Glamorgan We are happy to travel further, including destination weddings, please just enquire.
-
How long will it take on the morning of the wedding?This all varies depending on the style you have chosen and if we are adding in additional extensions for fullness and volume, I will go through timings with you at your trial.
-
Should I wash my hair on my wedding day?It depends on your hair type and the style you are having on the day. I usually prefer to work with very clean, very dry hair, no product and hot heat application. So I would recommend the night before or morning of, but you know your own hair best – if it gets greasy quickly, you will feel more confident by washing it on the day. Wash your hair with a clarifying shampoo - easiest way to think about a clarifying shampoo is for example, Head & Shoulders. A clarifying shampoo helps to remove any build up from oils and product on the scalp and hair, thus allowing the hair to respond better to styling, with tools and products, and also help the longevity of the style.
-
When is the best time to colour my hair?It is recommended a week to 10 days before the wedding to give your hair time to settle.
-
What styles will suit my face shape?Complementing your face shape is all about balance. Oval face shape will suit most styles; square and round faces will benefit from height on the crown, which create the illusion of looking longer; long faces need width; heart shapes need width at the jawline, layers work well here.
-
My hair is fine and mid-length. How do I add body and length for my dream look?Clip-in extensions are a great way to boosting your locks. I use a great brand called cliphair.com. We can do a trial run with them if this is something you would like to try. I use great thickening a texturising products that really do have amazing results.
-
