I’m getting married abroad, how do I find a hairdressers
for my big day?
Kellie answers:
Start by searching on Google where you are getting married
and there will be websites of hairdresser’s, view their
work on their website to get an idea of bridal styles
they have done and what they can offer you. When you
have found someone on google, email them directly to
ask for their bridal portfolio and latest pictures of
their work.
How do I get in touch with other brides who have
tied the knot abroad?
Kellie answers:
Check out web sites for forums for brides getting married
abroad, ladies who have already had their special day
and written reviews to recommend a hairdresser and also
other tips. Also check out Trip advisor forums on where
you are getting married, (ie getting married in Cyprus
wanted a hairdresser) there are always recommendations
on there.
Where else can I look for inspiring hairdressers
abroad?
Kellie answers:
Facebook and Twitter now-a-days are the key for finding
hairdresser’s wherever you are getting married abroad.
As they will update these more regularly than their
website so you can keep up to date with their work.
Will it be awkward working with a stylist I’ve never
met before?
Kellie answers:
When you have found a hairdresser don’t hesitate to
build up a relationship via email as they and you will
feel comfortable on the day of your trial run ( if required)
and also your wedding day.
Does it cost extra arranging a hairdresser abroad?
Kellie answers:
Another good tip is to try and book the hairdresser
yourself, as if it is booked through a wedding planner
they will be adding a commission on top, so it will
cost less to go direct through the hairdresser.
