Your bridal hair trial is a proper run-through before your wedding day—a chance to experiment, ask questions, and make sure you absolutely love the final look. You'll get a treatment and blow-dry, then your stylist will work with you to create the style you have in mind, whether that's an elegant updo, romantic waves, or a textured half-up look.

What happens at your trial
Your appointment starts with a chat about your wedding—what you're wearing, the venue, your veil or accessories, and any inspiration photos you've saved. Then we'll wash and treat your hair to get it in great condition, blow-dry it, and style it into your chosen look.
- Your stylist will fine-tune the details: parting, volume, curl size, face-framing pieces
- We'll work out exactly where your veil, tiara, clips, or hair vine should sit
- You'll see how the style holds and feels, so we can adjust anything that's too tight or too loose
- We'll take photos from all angles so we can recreate the look perfectly on your wedding day
Bring any accessories you're planning to wear—even if they're not finalised yet, having something similar helps us plan placement and make sure everything stays secure.
When to book your trial
Most brides book their trial four to twelve weeks before the wedding, but you can come in earlier if you'd like. If you're planning to change your hair colour, add extensions, or have a big cut before the day, let us know at the trial so we can advise on timing.
- Come with an open mind—sometimes a style you've loved in photos needs tweaking to suit your hair type or face shape
- Coordinate with your makeup trial if you're having one, so you can see the full look together
- After your trial, wear the style out for a few hours to check it holds up with movement and see how it photographs
Getting ready for the big day
Once we've agreed on your final look, your stylist will talk you through any prep needed between now and your wedding. That might mean scheduling a root touch-up or conditioning treatment, trimming your ends a week or two before, or simply using the right products at home.
- We'll confirm how long your hair will take on the morning, so you can plan timings
- You'll know exactly how to arrive—whether that's freshly washed or done the night before
- We'll advise on weather-proofing if you're getting married outdoors or in hot, humid conditions
- All the details are noted and photographed, so there are no surprises on the day
Your trial gives you one less thing to worry about as your wedding gets closer—and means you can relax and enjoy getting ready, knowing your hair is sorted.
