More information

What's Included

Everything you need for a flawless, camera ready finish.

  • Bespoke consultation to plan your shape, parting and balance.
  • Professional blowdry to prepare the base with volume or smoothness as needed.
  • Custom half-up detailing: twists, braids or sleek pinning at the crown or sides.
  • Polished lengths worn down, finished smooth, waved or bouncy to suit your look.
  • Discreet grips and targeted products for comfort, hold and anti-humidity protection.
  • Finishing touch with shine or texture spray and a light set.
  • Advice on keeping it perfect, plus placement of clips, pins or accessories you bring.

Who It's For

Perfect if you love your hair mostly down but want it off your face and beautifully refined. Ideal for weddings, races, black-tie events, milestone birthdays, work functions and nights out.

Best on shoulder-length to long hair, in any texture. We adapt the technique for fine hair needing lift or thick hair needing control, and shape the finish to flatter your features and neckline.

Duration & Appointment Timing

Allow 60 minutes for consultation, blowdry and styling. If your hair is very long or very thick, or you plan to use clip-in extensions, let us know so we can allow extra time.

For evening events, a mid-afternoon appointment gives the style time to set while staying fresh. For morning occasions, book an early slot so we finish close to your start time.

Aftercare & Maintenance

Avoid touching the pinned area and keep hair away from steam or rain. If needed, a light spritz of hairspray at arm’s length refreshes hold without stiffness.

Carry a couple of spare grips and a mini finishing spray. At home, remove pins gently and brush from the ends upward before washing. For regular events, keep lengths glossy with routine trims and a weekly hydrating mask.
