Bridal styling in Hamburg's old town

Your wedding morning starts with us

We accompany couples from the first trial appointment through to styling on the wedding day itself – hair, colour and care for both partners, coordinated with dress, suit and daily schedule.

Timeline

From enquiry to the morning of the day

We fix the wedding appointment as soon as the date is set – everything else is arranged backwards from there, so nothing is left open on the morning of the day.

  1. 3 to 6 months before: secure your appointment

    You let us know the wedding date, and we reserve the morning in the calendar. On Saturdays between May and September, the early slots are booked first.

  2. 6 to 8 weeks before: trial appointment

    Around 90 minutes for hairstyle, veil and hair accessories. We try two to three variations, photograph the chosen one, and note down every step.

  3. 2 to 3 weeks before: colour

    Colouring, roots or balayage should have some distance to the day so the colour can settle. We advise against short-notice changes just before the wedding.

  4. 10 days before: cut for the partner

    The cut grows out softly, keeping the contour neat until the day. We refine the beard contour and neckline once more on the wedding morning.

  5. On the wedding day: styling at the salon

    On request, we open for wedding couples before our regular hours. Two seats side by side, a calm setting, and results ready in good time before the agreed departure.

Preparation

The trial appointment addresses questions in advance

At the trial appointment, we work with what you'll be wearing on the wedding day. That's why we ask you to bring the veil, hair comb or flowers, a photo of the dress, and information about the neckline – a high back calls for a different neckline than a low one.

Please come with hair washed the day before; freshly washed hair holds an updo less well. At the end, we photograph the result from all sides and note down products, number of pins and the sequence.

  • Bring veil, hair comb, pins or flowers
  • Photo or sketch of the dress, neckline and back
  • Wash hair the day before, no silicone products at the appointment
  • Pictures of hairstyles you like – and ones that don't suit you
  • Time of the ceremony and photo shoot, so we can plan backwards
  • Partner's preferences for cut length and beard

Prices

What your wedding styling costs

The price depends on hair length, density and the effort required for the desired hairstyle. An updo with woven-in braided sections takes more time than loose waves, as does long or very thick hair. Hair accessories, veils and extensions are charged according to the work involved. After the trial appointment, you'll receive a written cost estimate for the wedding day.
