Frequently Asked Questions

As a Virginia bridal hairstylist team, we often get asked many of these same questions, and we would love to help answer any questions you may have about bridal hair, the wedding morning, the process, or whatever bridal beauty questions may come up!

Absolutely! As long as the minimum booking is met and all changes are made 3 months before the wedding, changes are accepted.


Unfortunately, we do not offer trials prior to booking. This is because we can't guarantee your date will still be available. I would hate for you to love your hair at the trial, which I'm confident you would, then not be able to have is style your hair for the wedding.


A good way to look at it: 

Trials are to show you a preview of your bridal hair, not to test out your stylist.


If my team is available for your date, and I am not, I will book them for your wedding. Each girl on the team has been trained directly under me so that our work all had a similar fingerprint! I base which member/s I send off of who I think best fits the vibe of your wedding.


No. All bridal hair trials are held at my studio in Locust Grove, VA.


However, on the wedding morning, We’ll travel to you so you can sit back, relax and enjoy your wedding hairstyling experience 


Yes! Whoever is the lead stylist for your wedding will be the one styling your hair at your trial!


Since I offer packages and every party has a different budget, it’s important to me that you have full control over how much you would like to ask of your party to pay for their hair. An appropriate range that is expected for the bridal party is approximately $125 - $175+ per person.


1 hour one way is included free of charge. Anything over is $.75 per mile every mile thereafter. 


If location is over 2 hours from me, a hotel/air bnb is required for the night before the wedding.


For the highest quality and a relaxing morning, we allot 1 hour per mother, bridesmaid, guest. and 1.5-2 hours for the bride. 


We do not offer wedding makeup. We are a Virginia wedding hairstyling specialists team. However, I can send you my top Virginia makeup artist recommendations so that you have the best in the industry for each field.



There is a minimum booking requirement of $1,350, which is our Diamond package. This is because we receive multiple inquiries for the same dates & we can only work 1 - 2 weddings per date. 

Most dates fill 12-18 months in advance.

As long as the minimum is met, we can still service smaller parties. Credit can also be used toward the minimum such as extension rental/purchase, & preview appointments for your ladies


Unfortunately, length and thickness does not determine or change the price. All contracted prices are firm.


Unfortunately, we do not offer bride only deals due to demand. Bride only would fall under our Diamond Package of $1,350. 


We try to stick to first come first serve rule of thumb. We receive multiple requests for the same date & therefore can't hold any wedding bookings without a signed contract & deposit.


I may bring a second stylist from my team for bride & party of 6+ to help speed up the morning.


If you want Hollywood waves, any half up/ half down styles, a woven boho braid, or a big voluminous updo, I usually recommend extensions. They add volume to the styles, whereas without them, the hair can look spindly at the ends. 


I highly recommend Zala Extensions, Bellami & Luxy Hair. You typically will want 18-20 inches.
