Hair stylist, Maya Jasinska tells us how to find the perfect hair stylist.

"You have managed to put together a plan – congratulations, the hardest part is done! You want to look beautiful and feel special on your big day, which can easily be achieved with the assistance of a professional.

"First, decide on your budget. Set your minimum and your maximum. At this stage, it does not matter the exact numbers of people in your party, but it’s good to know what your limits are.

"This next step is very important. There are hundreds of suppliers who offer hair styling and having to contact them all for prices is almost impossible and can be tiring, so don’t try to contact them one by one. Instead, view their gallery first, and if you like what you see, then enquire.

"They should be able to send you packages to choose from. If they don’t, or something is unclear, don’t hesitate to ask questions. 

"Once you’ve booked, you can send them your favourite looks and together you should be able to find the right hairstyle for your trial. For the trial, try to choose a maximum of two looks if you feel indecisive. This can be hair all up or hair half up and half down. The best time to arrange a trial is between nine and six months before the wedding. This is when most of the other important things are already in place, like the dress, theme, colour scheme, venue, flowers etc.

"Let’s not forget about hair accessories. The trial is the perfect time to bring or discuss your accessories, whether this is a head crown, a tiara, fresh flowers, a hair vine or jewelled pins. Once you have your hairstyle chosen, you will feel more confident and assured on the day of your wedding."
