Becky and Matt 18.07.26

I honestly couldn’t recommend Sally highly enough. She is incredibly talented at what she does and was such a lovely person to have as part of my wedding day.

When I first started looking at my hair, I wasn’t completely sure what I wanted, but Sally was fantastic at helping me work out what suited me and what I was looking for. She really listened to me, understood the kind of look I wanted to achieve and used her experience and talent to perfect it. By the wedding day, we had created exactly the look I had hoped for, and I absolutely loved it.

Sally was also so lovely in the lead-up and was always happy to answer any questions and reassure me when I needed it, which made me feel really confident going into the day.

On the morning itself, Sally and her assistant were both amazing. They were so much fun to have around and brought such a lovely, relaxed atmosphere to the morning. Everyone commented afterwards on how lovely they both were, and how amazing everyone’s hair looked.

My hair stayed beautifully throughout the entire day and evening, and I had so many compliments. Sally’s talent really speaks for itself, and I’m so glad I trusted her with my hair for such an important day.

Sally, I’ll always remember how amazing you made me feel on our wedding day. Thank you for being such a lovely part of the whole experience — I’m so grateful you were there. 🤍

Would highly recommend Sal!!

I couldn’t recommend Sal more! We were all so happy with how our hair looked on the wedding day - myself, mum and bridesmaids.
From when I first spoke to Sal on the phone I got the sense she really cared about her job and is a very warm, friendly person.
The hair trial was a fun, enjoyable experience and we made a few tweaks to my style on the morning of the wedding from what was done during the hair trial, Sal was really good and talked me through each step and really made sure I was happy with how it looked.
Sal really helped make the atmosphere on the morning so fun, calm and relaxing. She put us all at ease and you can tell she really cares about making the morning a lovely experience for everyone.
Thank you so much Sal!

Honestly amazing!

I was very indecisive with what i wanted for my wedding day but sally was patient and understanding and offered another hair trial where I made my decision. She also advised me with hair pieces and let me try on some of her bits which was very handy. On the day sally was very calm and relaxed which put me at ease. The hair style came out amazing! I was over the moon with the finish product better than i could have imagined. The bridesmaid hair was also lovely. Sally was also on hand to help with other bits during the morning such as pinning the father of the brides button hole and giving advice. She even had a handy pair of scissors to cut out my wedding dress strings which was amazing because no one else had scissors on the day. She stayed right to the end to help with final touch ups. She also took lovely photos which was nice. It feels like a bit of a whirlwind but sally was absolutely amazing and if i could do it all over again i wouldnt change a thing. Thank you so much sally!!

Personalised, friendly and professional standards by Sally

Thank you so so much to Sally for doing a fantastic job. I really valued her communication and organisation with this process. She was so friendly via email and when I met her for the trial and of course on the wedding day.
She did such a good job creating my vision and all my bridesmaids and Mum loved their looks as well. Excellent attention to detail and just a lovely person to have there on your wedding day

Super talented & equally lovely

Sally Kate did an incredible job with mine and my bridesmaids' hair! We all felt absolutely incredible, and she was a joy to have with us in the bridal suite as we got ready. The styles lasted all day, and she perfectly catered to the different wishes and personalities of all of my bridesmaids and myself. Can't recommend her enough!

Just Amazing

I booked Sally-Kate for my wedding day on the 10th July 2024. After meeting her previously before our big day, I knew she was the right lady to do my hair. Where do I even begin?, Firstly her talent is astounding. An absolute perfectionist. Her attention to detail is out of this world. MY HAIR WAS PERFECT. Honestly, I could wear my wedding hairstyle for the rest of my life and be happy!!. Sally is kind and generous, she will always go to the extra mile for you. Sally will travel anywhere to make you feel beautiful!!! I highly recommend Sally-Kate, it will be one of the best decisions you make. Thank you for everything Sally! xxx

Beauty team essential!

Sally-Kate is an absolute god send for brides, and made me feel so put together despite my unruly hair type! After a few months contemplation of my ceremony style, I opted for a modern half-up and I am still obsessed. It was perfect! For the party we then let the fun out and opted for some bigger curls to shake about on the dance floor. If I could have Sal style my hair so beautifully every day, I would. Thank you again, words could honestly never be enough!!

Sally-Kate is the most wonderful hairstylist

What a dream Sal is! I booked Sally-Kate a long time before my wedding as I knew she was the only hairstylist I wanted on my special day.
I was invited to visit Sal’s home for my wedding hair trial along with my maid of honour and we had the most gorgeous afternoon. Sal discussed different styles at the consultation and we made a few tweaks to the original style I had in mind according to her advice. Sal also helped in taking so many pictures and videos so I could show my hairdresser where I wanted to have more colour to compliment the style too. My maid of honour loved her trial too. Sal is approachable, friendly and is so knowledgeable about her craft - and has such interesting back stories to her career!
On the wedding morning, Sal was full of energy, upbeat and so lovely to have around to start the party - even at 7am!
My wedding hair was stunning! It lasted all day and I did not want to take it down at the end of the night! Sal fitted my hairpiece and veil so beautifully and I received so many compliments on my wedding day. I would not hesitate in booking Sal she truly is amazing!

Hollywood waves

Sal did my hair on my wedding day (along with my mum, mother in law and sister). Sal is super professional and amazing at what she does. I was so so pleased with my hair and got lots of compliments. Also Sal is a delight to be around and it was a pleasure to be around her on the morning of my wedding day.

Brilliant 🤩

Sally was the best stylist a bride could ask for. She is such a lovely warm chatty person Sally really helped set a relaxed atmosphere on the morning of my wedding. My hair looked amazing and stayed in all day it was just what I had asked for. After some chats over the phone and hair trial later I felt completely confident in Sally, that she would do justice to my vision in my head. My bridesmaids hair also looked stunning too.

Reliable, Professional & Amazing

Sally really helped me feel at ease with choosing and figuring out a style for both my Wedding and Wedding Blessing. On both days she did wonderful work, and even though English is not my first language she was patient and helped me get the look I wanted.

Outstanding, friendly, knowledgeable, reliable.

Sally-Kate, she's so much more than a luxury bridal hair stylist, Sally-Kate is someone you can reach out to when you are in need for a pick me up as the nerves start to kick in...which is exactly what happened to me. I had a panic, Sally listened and advised, just like a friend would. Sally cares so much about her clients to make sure they are happy and focused on the end goal, to marry your best friend.

On the day of our wedding Sally-Kate was just as I had experienced with her prior, she was calm and patient with me and my bridesmaids on what felt like the hottest day of the year!

Sally's an absolute rockstar.

Look no further for your bridal hair stylist.

The best decision I made was booking Hair by Duboux!

After me changing my mind and worrying about my wedding hair a number of times, Sally made me feel beautiful and made me feel myself with my wedding hair. She was so patient, kind and extremely talented. An absolute delight and calming presence to have on the morning of my wedding, making my own, my bridesmaids and my mother’s hair dreams come true! Would highly recommend!!

Glamorous Hollywood Wave

Sally-Kate was really engaging from the moment I sent an enquiry to the day of the wedding. She understood the style I wanted (Hollywood wave) and made me feel at ease every step of the way leading up to the wedding. She was very down to earth and I was so happy to have her be part of making me feel so special. My bridesmaid was so happy with her loose waves and my daughter also looked beautiful with her naturally curly hair styled with a cute pin. If you’re a bride and after the glamorous Hollywood wave I would definitely recommend using her!!
