Duration & Appointment Timing
Your appointment lasts 75 mins. Please arrive with clean, fully dry hair washed the night before. Avoid heavy conditioners, oils, and tight elastics. Bring your accessories and 2 to 3 reference images. Tell us if your hair is very thick, very long, or includes extensions so we can allow the right time.
Aftercare & Maintenance
- Avoid touching or pulling the style.
- Keep away from steam and heavy rain where possible.
- Carry a few grips and a small hairspray for quick fixes.
- If wearing a veil, lift from the comb, not the hair.
- To remove, slide out pins gently before brushing.
- Detangle with a little conditioner or spray, then brush slowly.
