Please share these notes with everyone booked in for hair and makeup.

Clothing – Wear something that is easy to remove after hair and makeup. This will allow your hair and makeup to stay perfect when you change into your dress. Robes are perfect.

Skin – We suggest a good skincare routine on the day. Cleansing, exfoliating and moisturising is essential. Feel free to use hydrating face/eye/lip masks and serums the morning of. We suggest avoiding sunscreen as this can cause your face to have a white cast with flash photography. If you’re needing a beautiful skincare line we recommend the Queen Street Apothecary range.

Hair – Clean hair is essential. If your hair has any amount of oil in it, our styling will be greatly effected. 

Anyone who has oily/normal hair – we suggest washing your hair the morning of doing 2 shampoos and only condition the very ends. We need completely dry hair to begin our upstyles, so please dry off/smooth out with a blow drier. 

For those who have dry hair – washing a day or 2 before is fine – you will know your own hair and how it performs best. If you can smooth out with a blow drier after washing this will help us with our styling. 

Anyone having a blow dry can wash their hair the morning of and we will dampen it down before we begin.

PLEASE USE HIGH QUALITY PRODUCTS. Do not use straightening irons after drying your hair

This hair advice is very highly recommended by our stylists and if not followed correctly will effect the outcome of your style.
