hairdresser dilema

Jump! I am having my own hairdresser, but that's because he's one of about 3 ppl whose cuts I've been happy with - you really need someone you can trust for your big day.

Thanks for that I know that is what I have got to do but i forgot to add she is invited to the wedding?

I had the same dilemma, my friend who is a hairdresser always done my hair and I was never entirely happy with it but as she was my friend (even tho i was paying her) I felt rude sayin anything. I decided that with 3 months to go til the big day I wanted to go to a new hairdressers and have a fresh start where i felt a bit more in control of my own hair! So i went on friday to a new hairdressers and they did a great job with my hair, i was also able to look at a book with all the past wedding hair they have done. Im booked in for a consultation on Friday to discuss wedding hair and i have a good feeling about it.

Its entirely up to u wat u do, but make sure its ur decision and you dont stay wiv ur hairdresser as to not hurt her feelings, you only get 1 wedding day and u want ur hair to be perfect, u dont want ur hair to be an extra worry on the day ?

Jump! Tell her that you don't want her worrying about your hair on the day when she has to get her self ready! Also add the element of surprise....

Thanks that is the advice i need...you are right I don't want to be worried on the day that she will not do what I want. I know everything had to be perfect for her day so I am just having the same.

I have actually lost sleep over this as I really don't want to upset her. ?

I agree with what everyone else is saying. You only get one day.

If she is coming to the wedding can you not give her another job and say you need her to do x and you dont want her worrying like others have said?

I've got it. Say you've found a brilliant make-up girl who you really want to use but she won't do just makeup and has to do your hair as well.

? That's made me laugh, my sons girlfriend (i'm 45 by the way and getting married for the 2nd and last time) works for the hairdressers i've booked into....so i was thinking of telling her they had booked me a bridal package as a wedding present.

do you think that is just wrong and i should just tell the truth

can you tell i'm a worrier?

Im a worrier too!! No i think that is a good idea, you are not lying out of spite or malice, it is to save hurt feelings which is sometimes okay.

I am in a similar situation, except i love my hairdresser! She did my friends wedding hair and i was BM then. She always cuts my hair and always does a great job so I couldnt not have her do it!! I think she was one of my 1st bookings!

Maybe if you made an appointment with her and said that you wanted something really different for your wedding hair and you would like a proper wedding trial she might be well in with the ideas. She maybe doesnt know what you want when you're going to your normal "trim" appts!
