Philosophy
Loving how you look — that's what matters most
Whether you're feeling excited or a little anxious — I'll still try to share my philosophy with you.
For years as a stylist I followed and created rules about which style suits whom and which hairstyle matches which dress. Until I became a bride myself. At that moment all my professional knowledge took a back seat, and the only thing that mattered was feeling comfortable, beautiful, and confident.
My wedding look didn't match style standards at all, nor did it match cultural standards. But I felt beautiful.
That's when I clearly understood: there's nothing more important than simply loving how you look. I encourage you to just breathe out and trust your feelings and the artist who can bring any hairstyle to life.
And I think I know one such artist =)
Guide
How to match your hairstyle to your dress
Despite my philosophy, I'm still sharing a little guide on how to match your hairstyle to your dress.
Choosing your style
Follow your heart
When choosing what suits you, I suggest not focusing on hair length, thickness, or type. These are not important factors. You can almost always create any hairstyle from any hair.
I suggest following what resonates in your heart. Just bring those photos to your stylist — or better yet, upload them to your profile and I'll take a look.
Choosing your style
- 1
What do the photos you save have in common?
- 2
What do you like the most? (if it's just a certain line — write that down)
- 3
Are all photos the same hair color — and is it different from yours?
- 4
What feeling do you want to project on your special day?
- 5
What kind of dress?
- 6
If you're still unsure — I suggest trying several options at the trial session.
Trial session
How the trial session works
I've changed the pricing — the trial is now cheaper and not time-limited, so we can:
Try several options if needed
Get to know each other to find a connection
Calmly discuss options and logistics without rushing
The trial takes place at my home studio.
It's best to schedule the trial about one month before the wedding, so we can better understand the hair situation — as close to the wedding day as possible.
Plan about 2 hours for the trial. If you need to try several options, mention it in the booking so I can allocate more time.
If you know you want to try just one hairstyle, we make it as durable as on the wedding day. So you can test how long it lasts — I suggest going somewhere for a crash test.
After the trial I always ask for a photo and feedback — how it held and looked in the evening. So we can adjust the technique if needed.
At the trial we can test hair extensions, which you can rent for 35 euros on the wedding day.

Trial bookings are available on weekdays only.
When it's time to book, you'll receive a reminder and can simply choose a date on the calendar.

Front zone styling ideas
At the trial we always try to find what reveals the best in you — not what fits the overall wedding theme, but what makes your eyes sparkle. I suggest letting go of dry trends.
Wedding day
How the wedding day goes
On the wedding day, at the agreed time, I arrive at your getting-ready location and work with the bride and guests.
The bride takes about 2 hours and each guest about 1 hour. If time is tight, 1.5 hours for the bride and 40 minutes per guest works well too.
The bride and guests should ideally have dry hair, unless we've agreed otherwise.
All hairstyle details and hair preparation are discussed in advance.
