The Trial Experience

How Wedding Hair Trials Work

Your trial is more than a test run — it's a collaborative session where we lock in the look that makes you feel like the best version of yourself.

When to Book Your Trial

Ideally 4–8 weeks before your wedding. This gives you time to make adjustments if needed, without the stress of last-minute changes. For peak wedding season (May–October), we recommend booking your trial alongside your initial consultation to secure your preferred date.

Tips for a Great Trial

  • 1Bring inspiration photos — Pinterest boards, magazine clippings, or screenshots
  • 2Wear a top with a similar neckline to your dress
  • 3Bring your veil, headpiece, or any accessories you plan to wear
  • 4Come with clean, product-free hair (no dry shampoo)
  • 5Be open to suggestions — your stylist may see possibilities you haven't considered
