About me and what I do
Freelance bridal hairstylist with over 25 years’ experience
My biggest passion is being creative with long hair so I'm at my happiest working on weddings and photoshoots.
I’ve been featured in Brides, Rock My Wedding and Love & Lavender to name a few......
A wedding is one of the most important occasions in a woman’s life and I have the pleasure to play a special role in up to 100 big days a year. Testing my creative flair and passion for hair, I create original looks for each and every bride, taking care that each style compliments the dress and any theme.
'My number one priority is to leave my clients looking picture perfect and feeling more beautiful than they’ve ever felt before'
If you are looking to book me for either wedding/occasional hair, please get in contact at charlottewesson@gmail.com.
I will travel anywhere if hotel\travel costs\time are covered.
Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire and Rutland.
Trial and planning
Organising a hairdresser to come to your home or chosen wedding venue will make your big-day much more relaxed. I work well under pressure to rest assured, your hair is in safe hands!
I also work alongside some excellent makeup artists, please have a browse through my recommended links.
What happens at the trial?
We discuss preferences, (bring pictures) try styles and decide on a look for the day.
I take photographs for both our reference and to help your final decision.
The trial saves valuable time on the big day itself.
If you’re unhappy with your look at the trial or unsure about a potential hairstyle, please voice your concerns - I can’t read minds!
I want to leave you feeling happy, so please don’t be afraid to say.
At the end of the day, I can only advise.
The final decision must be left up to you.
Although many looks are possible with the help of added hair pieces and extensions!
With that in mind, you’ll still need to be realistic with what's achievable with your hair.
My college tutor told me….."it’s a comb, not a wand!
I do trials during the week at my salon NG33 5HB
Weekends are full with weddings and family commitments. However, I’m occasionally available on Saturdays during the winter months, so please keep this in mind while planning.
Where do trials take place?
I usually arrange trials to take place at my salon 'The Hair Hut, Cross Swords carpark, Skillington Nr Grantham NG33 5HB.
When should I have my trial?
Deciding on a trial date is completely up to you. Some brides like to schedule a date early, as this leaves time to grow their hair if need be and buy accessories. Others prefer to leave it closer to the day and opt for a style that compliments accessories they’ve already bought.
Either way, there’s no right or wrong way to do it.
Its often a good idea to have hair and makeup trials on the same day to see how they look together.
At the trial.
A photo of your dress, any accessories you have already such as veil, tiara or flowers.
Avoid washing your hair on the day of the trial.
If you’re also planning to colour your hair, be sure to get it done 1-2 weeks before the big day.
On the day.
As mentioned before, avoid washing your hair unless your hairdresser asks you to. Be sure to also wear a top that easily unbuttons or unzips, as you’re likely to ruin your hairstyle if you have to tug a tight top over your head.
.
Then all you have to do is sit back, relax and leave the rest up to me!
It’s not uncommon to feel slightly overwhelmed during wedding prep, as the day becomes very real.
Try to relax and treasure this special time with those you’ve chosen to spend it with - and don’t forget to crack open the bubbly!
How many people can I style in one booking?
Numbers aren’t a problem as I work closely with other stylists who help me with larger bookings.
Hair Trends.
Anything goes!
Loose chignons, half up, half down looks, 40s waves, plaits and bouffant styles.......
My personal favourites are vintage, I do love a challenge!
