Wedding and event hair: how to prepare

A wedding, a communion or a special dinner takes planning, and so does your hair. Here's what we recommend:

The trial

For brides we always do a trial session. Bring photos of the style you like, your dress and neckline: they all affect whether an updo, waves or a braid works best.

When to book

In wedding season Saturdays fill up fast. If you already have a date, book as early as you can; for guests, two or three weeks is enough.

The day before

• Wash your hair the day before, not that morning.
• Skip heavy oils and masks: updos hold better.
• Wear a button-up top so you don't ruin your hair when changing.

Waves, low buns, crown braids… We'll help you choose.
