What to expect
Our formal updo service is perfect for weddings, proms, parties, and other special events. Your stylist will create a polished style tailored to your hair type, outfit, and desired look, whether you prefer something elegant, soft and romantic, or sleek and classic. Please arrive with clean, dry hair for best results, or add a wash service to your appointment for full preparation before styling. If you would like to include hair accessories or hair jewelry in your style, please bring them with you to your appointment.
Recommended frequency
Booked as needed for events and occasions. Many regulars schedule a standing weekly or bi-weekly blow-out to keep the look polished without daily styling time at home.
Pair with
Add a Professional Hair Wash or Styling Prep Hair Wash for the cleanest base, or pair with a haircut to refresh your shape on the same visit.

Formal Updo — frequently asked questions
Quick answers to what clients usually ask before booking.
How long does a formal updo take?
Plan on 60–90 minutes depending on intricacy. Bring inspiration photos and any hair accessories you want incorporated.
How far in advance should I book an updo for an event?
For weddings and big events, we recommend booking 4–8 weeks in advance — especially for Friday afternoon and Saturday slots. Smaller events can usually be accommodated with a week's notice.
Should I come with clean or dirty hair for an updo?
Day-old hair holds an updo better than freshly-washed hair. Skip the deep conditioner the day of the appointment — a little texture is your friend.
Can you accommodate a headpiece, veil, or tiara?
Yes — bring it to the appointment so we can place pins where the piece will sit. A trial run a few weeks before the event is the best way to lock in placement.
