Wavy Bridal Hairstyles
Soft, romantic waves never go out of style for wedding hair. Whether you want boho-chic curls, old Hollywood glamour, or loose, tumbling waves, our stylists know how to create glossy, defined waves that feel both timeless and modern.
This style works beautifully with veils, hair vines, or delicate floral pins, adding texture and movement to your overall bridal look.
Wavy bridal hair is suitable for all hair lengths and looks especially striking in outdoor or summer weddings where a natural glow is key. Our team will help set your waves to last from “I do” to the last dance, ensuring they remain smooth, touchable, and perfectly photo-ready all day.
A bridal trial allows you to explore different wave thicknesses and finishes so the final effect is tailored exactly to your preference and complements your dress, accessories, and personal style.


Wedding Upstyles
A classic wedding upstyle is a popular choice for brides seeking an elegant and timeless look that withstands a full day of celebration.
Our stylists are skilled at creating everything from sleek chignons and sculpted buns to soft, textured updos that gently frame the face and neck.
Upstyles are perfect for showcasing embellished hairpieces, keeping hair secure under a veil, or highlighting intricate gown details on the back or neckline. We tailor each upstyle to your hair type, ensuring lasting hold without feeling too tight or uncomfortable.
Whether you prefer something polished and traditional or soft and modern with loose tendrils, we ensure your hair remains flawless and picture-perfect from the ceremony until the final moments of your big day.
Our team also offers upstyles for bridesmaids and mothers of the bride so the entire wedding party feels elegant and coordinated.
Half Up, Half Down Hairstyles
For brides seeking a versatile style that blends the elegance of an updo with the romance of worn-down hair, the half up, half down look is a brilliant choice.
This style combines height and structure at the crown with soft waves, curls, or sleek tresses cascading below. It’s a popular option for adding subtle volume while keeping hair away from the face - so you can enjoy every moment without fuss.
Half up, half down styles work especially well with small braids, twists, or added hair accessories like pins and combs for a personalised touch. It allows brides to show off length and texture while maintaining a formal, polished finish for the ceremony.
Our wedding hair stylists in Hampshire will work with your hair’s natural texture and wedding theme to craft a unique, red-carpet-worthy look that feels comfortable and lasts through every dance, photo, and embrace.
