Upstyles & bridal hair in Gold Coast, at a glance

An upstyle has to survive a long day, photographs and usually some dancing, which makes it a different job from a blow-dry. For a wedding, the trial is where you find out whether a stylist's work holds.

Most start between
$42–$75

What to look for

  • Photos of upstyles and bridal work on hair like yours, including how it looked at the end of the day.
  • A trial for a wedding, booked far enough ahead to change your mind about the style.
  • For a bridal party, how many people they can style before you need to leave, and whether they travel to you.
  • Whether they want your hair washed the day before or on the day. Most upstyles hold better on hair that is not freshly washed.

Common questions

How far ahead should I book wedding hair?
Popular stylists book out months ahead for weekends in peak wedding season. Book the day as soon as the date is set, and the trial four to eight weeks before the wedding.
How long does an upstyle take?
Around an hour for most event upstyles, and longer for very long or thick hair or for added pieces. Bridal styling is usually booked with extra time to spare on the day.
