Doing your own hair? Practice, practice, practice.

1. Time your practice session and make a list of all of the tools and products you will need.

2. Put everything in a basket and hide it away to bring out fresh and ready for your special day.

3. Schedule times for showers.

4. Make sure there is a mirror and a counter or table to work from.

5. Make sure there are proper outlets, if not bring a power bar and extension cord.

6. Put on all of your pretty under things and cover up with a button down shirt or robe. This way after hair and makeup are done just slip into your gown!

Is a stylist traveling to you?

1. Give exact, adequate directions and phone numbers. Many times brides give the directions they follow and forget the stylist may be coming from the opposite side of the highway.

2. Make sure you have a place set up for the stylist to work. It can be a large bath room, well lit dining room or kitchen. Put out hot pads or thick towels to protect surfaces from hot tools.

3. Don't assume the stylist can do extra people last minute. Make sure everyone who is having their hair done is mentioned ahead of time and arrives promptly.

4. Be ready yourself and allow extra time for interruptions.

Are you going to a salon?

1. Schedule your wedding day hair appointment at least eight weeks ahead.

2. Have a practice session at least a month ahead and bring a picture of your dress and your headpiece with you to the salon.

3. Record your travel time from the salon to where you are getting dressed.

4. Add on extra time for getting dressed and make-up if the salon is not applying it.

5. Bring a camera to your hair appointment and take pictures of the front, side, and back.

6. Ask for more than one stylist to help with the wedding party. Three stylists for a party of six is the best bet for staying on schedule.

7. Schedule all nail appointments for the day before, this also saves time.

8. Don't expect to get your favourite stylist to do your wedding hair if you desire an intricate Up do. This is a specialty service and best left for the salon's up do expert.
