Heavenly hair:

In the lead-up to your wedding day Severin will work closely with you to create the perfect look, taking into consideration your wedding theme, colours, gown, make-up and accessories. Following a three-hour trial where several styles will be created, a personal online moodboard is put together as a reminder of your chosen hairstyle and point of reference when choosing accessories. On the day itself, Hepburn Collection will be on hand throughout the morning preparations to create the chosen styles for you and your bridal party, ensuring you look beautiful until the moment you leave for the ceremony. If you’re keen to change your look for the evening celebrations, you can opt for the full-day package ensuring you look your glamorous best from morning to the last dance. To assist with all the little details such as tying sashes, pinning buttonholes and adding accessories, the unique concierge service offers a helping hand to add the final touches to your styling.

2011 bridal hair trends:
To get you started with thoughts of how to wear your hair, Severin has shared his pick of favourite bridal looks for 2011.

Classic chignon:
A sleek and chic Parisian chignon is a timeless and classic wedding day look. Not too structured, hair is swept to one side creating a neat, high side bun. It’s also such an easy style to make your own with pretty accessories or fresh flowers.

Retro curls:
For a touch of vintage glamour, Rita Hayworth style retro curls will be popular. For this 1930s look, hair can either be styled down creating big curls or to one side with soft waves. Add a vintage hairclip or pretty hairband to complete the look.

The beehive:
2011 will see the return of lots of volume and backcombing in the style of Brigitte Bardot. A great look for effortless glamour, this style can be adapted to suit most hair types and complements the current trend for Sixties inspired fashion, which will be carried through to bridal.
