FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Everything you need to know about your bridal hair experience.

WHEN SHOULD I BOOK MY WEDDING HAIR?

I recommend enquiring as early as possible, particularly for popular summer Saturdays. My diary can book well in advance, and I only take on a limited number of weddings each year so that I can give every bride my full attention.

WHERE DO YOU OFFER BRIDAL HAIR?

I'm based on the Cornwall & Devon border and provide bridal hairstyling throughout Cornwall, Devon and beyond.

I’m also available for destination weddings and celebrations further afield. Travel fees may apply depending on location.

WHAT IS INCLUDED IN MY BRIDAL EXPERIENCE?

Every bridal booking includes a 2.5-hour bridal preview, where we can explore your ideas, refine your style and make sure everything is perfect for the wedding day.

Your experience also includes personalised planning, a wedding morning timeline, dedicated email support and final finishing touches before you leave for your ceremony.

Your wedding date is reserved exclusively for you, so there’s no rushing away to another booking.

WHAT HAPPENS AT MY BRIDAL PREVIEW?

Your preview is your opportunity to try, refine and perfect your bridal hairstyle before the big day.

We’ll talk through your dress, accessories, overall wedding aesthetic and the look you’re hoping to create. We can experiment with shape, texture and details until we find something that feels completely right for you.

I’ll also photograph your finished style from different angles so we have a clear reference for the wedding morning.

DO I NEED TO KNOW EXACTLY WHAT HAIRSTYLE I WANT?

Absolutely not.

You’re welcome to arrive with Pinterest boards, saved images and ideas, but you don’t need to have it all figured out. Part of my role is helping you understand what will work beautifully with your hair, features, dress and overall wedding aesthetic.

Sometimes the best bridal look is the one you hadn't originally imagined.

CAN I CHANGE MY HAIRSTYLE AFTER MY PREVIEW?

Yes. Your preview is a creative process, not a commitment to a particular style.

If you go away and decide you'd like to make changes, we can discuss them and make sure we have a clear plan for your wedding morning.

CAN YOU WORK WITH FINE, THIN OR SHORT HAIR?

Yes. Hair doesn't need to be long or thick to create a beautiful bridal style.

I’ll work with your natural hair and can advise on preparation, products, padding, extensions and other techniques where appropriate to create the shape, volume and longevity you’re looking for.

CAN YOU WORK WITH HAIR EXTENSIONS?

Yes. Extensions can be a wonderful way to add length, volume or texture to a bridal hairstyle.

If you're considering extensions, I can advise you on what would work best for your chosen style and how to prepare your hair ahead of the wedding.

WHAT SHOULD I DO TO PREPARE MY HAIR FOR MY WEDDING?

I'll give you personalised advice based on your hair type and chosen style.

Generally, the most important thing is following the preparation guidance we discuss before your wedding rather than making any last-minute changes to your hair.

Your preparation can have a huge impact on how your finished style looks and lasts.

HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN YOU STYLE?

My packages include styling for the bride and three members of the bridal party, with additional members able to be added where time allows.

I'll create a personalised wedding morning timeline so everyone knows when they're being styled and the morning runs smoothly.

DO YOU STAY UNTIL I LEAVE FOR THE CEREMONY?

Yes.

I stay with you through the final finishing touches, making sure your hair is checked and perfected before you leave for your ceremony.

It’s important to me that you walk out of the door feeling completely confident in your hair.

DO YOU TRAVEL TO MY WEDDING VENUE?

Yes. I provide mobile bridal hairstyling and will travel to your chosen venue.

Travel is calculated based on the location of your wedding and will be confirmed as part of your proposal.

DO YOU CHARGE FOR TRAVEL?

Travel charges may apply depending on the location of your wedding.

Any applicable travel costs will be clearly outlined in your personalised proposal, so there are no surprises.

CAN YOU STYLE HAIR FOR DESTINATION WEDDINGS?

Yes. I love travelling for weddings and am available for destination celebrations both within the UK and internationally.

If you're planning something further afield, get in touch with your date and location and I'll be happy to discuss what's possible.

HOW DO I SECURE MY WEDDING DATE?

Your date is secured once the required booking fee and agreement have been completed.

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER I BOOK?

Once your booking is confirmed, you'll receive everything you need to begin preparing for your bridal hair experience.

We'll stay in touch throughout your planning journey, and you'll have direct email support whenever you need advice or reassurance.

Closer to the wedding, we'll finalise your styling details and wedding morning timeline so everything feels organised and effortless.

WHAT IF I HAVE QUESTIONS BEFORE BOOKING?

Once your booking is confirmed, you'll receive everything you need to begin preparing for youPlease get in touch. Choosing your bridal hairstylist is a personal decision, and I'm always happy to answer any questions before you commit.
