You might be wondering…

How do I prep my hair?

  • -Please arrive with clean, dry hair. I promise this will help the hold of your hairstyle!

    -Use a clarifying shampoo & wash twice - be sure to really scrub the roots/scalp to remove any product buildup and oil. This step is important. Any oils or buildup left on the hair will work against us for shine and volume. Curls also tend to look “stringy” at the root. No worries. With product, I am able to create any texture we need.

  • -Blow-dry smooth, but not completely straight. totally doesn’t have to be perfect, the goal is just to have it dry! Also can’t hurt to use your favorite volumizing product at the roots!

    -Please fight the urge to pick up the flat iron. I can touch up anything as needed.

    -I highly suggest no ponytails, clips or messy buns prior to styling, these will leave unwanted dents/bends in the hair

  • For styles utilizing natural curls:

    These are styles where we will keep/further define your natural curls.

    -Every curly girl has their best hair day after washing. Take note of the day when your curls look their best & try to coordinate this with the wedding day.

    -For naturally curly hairstyles, please arrive with curls in their natural state.

    -You can totally use your favorite curl cream or wet styling products for prep beforehand. The goal is to keep your hair moisturized, bouncy, and frizz free.

    -Don't worry if anything is frizzy or unruly that morning, I can always touch up your curls with whichever size iron mimics your natural pattern the closest.

  • -If your hair is curly & you are looking for a wavy/straighter style (ex. loose waves, beachy curls or glam waves with the curling iron) please blow-dry style with a round brush prior to arriving. The goal for these styles is to have your hair smooth with movement, without being completely straight.

    Please avoid the flat iron

    -I can also blow-dry style your hair for you if additional time is previously allotted in the timeline. We would need around 30 mins for this.

    (There will also be an additional $75 added on to your final total.)

    -For blow-dry styles on curly hair, you can arrive with freshly washed, wet hair with no products.

Hair extensions are not always needed, but are the perfect way to add volume and length to your desired style. If you would like to use them, please purchase these prior to your hair preview. I currently do not carry extensions, but I would love to share my recommendations!

*If we are doing a glam wave hairstyle, extensions are a MUST. 20-22 inches for length is preferred.*

-You can totally bring any hair accessories, or flowers with you too!
