We begin with a quick consultation about your hair, your plans, and how you want it to sit. Your stylist will prep and style with a condition first approach, aiming for a polished finish that feels comfortable and wearable. You will also get simple advice on how to keep it looking good at home. How long will my style last? That depends on your hair type, your aftercare, and what your day looks like. We will tailor the prep and finish to help it hold up as well as possible, and suggest a few easy tweaks if you want extra longevity. If you are unsure, tell us what you need it to last for when you book. How should I prepare for a blow dry and styling appointment? Arrive with an idea of the look you like and anything you need the style to work around, such as work, travel, or an event. Let us know about any scalp sensitivity, extensions, or recent chemical services, so we can choose the gentlest approach. If your hair tangles easily, a quick brush through beforehand can help. Is blow dry and styling suitable for all hair types? Yes, it can be adapted for most hair types, including fine, thick, curly, or textured hair. The key is using the right prep, tension, and heat settings to protect condition and create the finish you want. We will recommend what is realistic for your hair and your upkeep. How do I look after my hair after styling? Try to keep hair dry, avoid too much touching, and use a gentle brush if needed. Sleeping with hair loosely secured can help maintain shape and reduce frizz. If you want product recommendations for your hair type, we will keep them practical and easy to use.
