Annemarie & Adam's Wedding 16/05/26

Ashleigh did myself and my bridesmaids hair. Ashleigh was very professional and made me feel and look amazing. She made us feel relaxed and asked us questions about the style we wanted and offered tweaks so the hairstyles suited the individual and would last throughout the day/night. Ashleigh is value for money. I had clip in Hair extensions that Ashleigh put in, I have never had them before and she told me prices and the best option and the after care for them. The price for myself and my bridesmaids and including my Hair extensions and the trial all came into my budget. Ashleigh is a God send for my hair and I would 100 percent recommend her to do your hair. One of my bridesmaids has already got Ashleigh's information to do her her for her upcoming wedding.

Amazing hairdresser!

I couldn’t have asked for a better hairdresser for the big day. Ashleigh was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. She styled hair for the me, four bridesmaids, and the mother of the bride, and every single one of us was so pleased with the results.
Ashleigh was incredibly easy-going, which made the whole morning feel relaxed and enjoyable. At the same time, her skill and attention to detail were outstanding—every hairstyle looked beautiful and lasted perfectly throughout the day.
What really stood out was how well Ashleigh listened to each of us. Everyone had slightly different ideas and preferences, and she took the time to understand exactly what we wanted, making sure we all felt confident and happy with our final look.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ashleigh to anyone. Truly a talented and lovely professional who helped make the morning so special.

Amazing!!!

Absolutely amazing experience from start to finish! My wedding hair was everything I hoped for and more. The attention to detail, patience, and skill really showed, and I felt completely confident in their hands.

On the morning of the wedding, everything was so calm and well organised, which helped me relax and enjoy every moment. My hair looked flawless and lasted perfectly all day and into the night
without moving. Not only a fantastic hairdresser but also such a lovely, friendly person to have there on such an important day.

Can’t recommend more!

Ashleigh is lovely, she makes you feel comfortable immediately and you can have a good laugh with her. She knows what she is doing and does it well. She suggested a last minute change to the style on my wedding day and I trusted her completely- she smashed it and make me look and feel like a million dollars.
She is so professional and organised the whole way through. You can tell how much she cares and wants to do her best.
Don’t hesitate to book in with Ashleigh, you will not regret it.

Ashleigh what a hair bridal magician!

Ashleigh what a magician!! All the planning and decisions that go into a wedding can be stressful but for me over the venue, dress, colour scheme was nothing compared to my stress on finding a hairstylist.

I have very thick, long, curly hair. In everyday hair / styles everyone says to me daily “I want your hair” or “oh you have great hair” and yes I am lucky and love my hair but when you mix my hair with Bride - I am someones worst nightmare!! So for me the pressure was on. I was prepared to pay double / triple the normal rate just to secure someone because I knew my hair would be challenging.

I saw Ashleigh’s work from hitched and instagram and fell in love instantly with her up dos - to me she is the Queen of the up do! And I must have spoken to the gods praying she will agree to trail me and she did! I walked in nervous as I thought she might decline me afterwards, but she didn’t and I left with confidence and the up do of my dreams.

Ashleigh is very kind, honest, funny and so talented. Her passion is what sets her aside from anyone else I’ve spoken to and enquired with. On the day not only did she make me feel amazing but she support 2 of my friends and made them feel wonderful too, we all got lovely compliments of our hair and it lasted all night! In the bride room getting ready, Ashleigh was part of the gang joining in conversations, making jokes and made my morning lovely. Please book Ashleigh and look no further, I would never think again on any event I needed hair for now - Ashleigh is perfect! and I wish her all the success as she continues on her journey.

Beautiful Bridal Hair

Ashleigh was fantastic from initial consultation through to the big day. She made me feel so at ease and nothing was too much trouble. After my initial trial (which I loved) I spontaneously opted for something totally different and fully trusted Ashleigh to pull it together without another trial. She's exceptionally talented, great value for money and would recommend to any bride!

Beautiful wedding day hair

I was so pleased to find Ashleigh and have her do my hair and my three bridesmaids for my wedding day.
Ashleigh listened to what we all wanted, and created hair styles that were lovely and lasted so well.
Ashleigh made us feel relaxed and was lovely to have her around on the morning as she was such a calming influence.

Best of the best!

Ashleigh did my hair for my wedding day and then for my reception a couple of months later. She did an incredible job! It lasted all day from the ceremony and all the way across the channel to France the same day!!
I don’t have the easiest hair- naturally short but with extensions but she managed to get it exactly as I wanted and I loved it.
She was friendly, great value for money and offered a 10/10 service!

The best of the best!

Honestly firstly I would like to say thank you to Ashleigh you was amazing! From starting at the trail to the wedding day and everything inbetween you was the best. I loved my hair at the trail but on the wedding day my hair exceed all my expectations it was perfect. You got every last hair in the perfect place! And the bridesmaids hair they both looked amazing aswell. At the hair trail Ashleigh gave me some great advise on how to get my hair in the best condition possible and everything she said worked. She is a wealth of knowledge and you would be so lucky if you choose her to do your wedding day hair. 🥰❤️

HIGHLY Recommend Ashleigh for beautiful bridal styles that don't budge!

Ashleigh was a godsend for my wedding!!! Even whilst planning for the big day across different time zones, she made coordination as seamless as possible. She gave my bridal party and family beautiful, romantic hair, which was fitting for a castle wedding. She also learned how to style a traditional Korean bun for my mum, which I especially appreciated.

Everyone's hair looked fabulous!

Even under a time crunch (I'm sorry, Ashleigh!!!), she got my hair in a gorgeous updo in record time. Even with a heavy cathedral veil, my hair DID NOT BUDGE for hours after the ceremony. I strongly recommend working with Ashleigh to complete your beautiful looks for your big day.

Highly recommend

I was let down by another hair dressier close to my wedding date.
I found Ashleigh on Facebook. I was hesitant at first because of being let down and having to find someone quickly.
When I met Ashleigh for a trial, she made me feel so at ease, talked me through of what happens and asked me how I wanted my hair and the bridesmaids hair.

On the day she make everyone’s hair look perfect. She made us all feel so calm. Our hair lasted all day and night. I felt like a princess. One of our bridesmaids hair doesn’t curl but she made her hair curl and last all night.

I would highly recommend Ashleigh, she made me feel so comfortable and amazing. Thank you for making me feel amazing for my wedding day. I had so many compliments.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
