Wedding Forum - Should i risk it or stick with my original...

So i originally booked a local hair stylist to do both my hair and my bms. Shes got loads of experience and her hair styles look amazing and most of all shes reliable (returns all my messages/has good feedback).

Now my friend is a hair stylist and offered to do my hair and bms hair and said shed do mine for £25 and my bms for £20 each and i thought would save me some pennies so i said id give her a go (I didnt cancel my other hairstylist just in case!)

Well she said she'd do a free trial on me and my MOH and to give her a date and we could go over hers. We arranged it then day before it got canceled by her, then re-arranged it again and had another excuse, so re-arranged it and it got canceled again as she said she twisted her ankle ......

When we eventually did have a trial my MOH's hair looked lush she done it all properly up into a side bun. But mine seemed rushed she said was just a rough idea of how would look. I had it curled and wanted it pulled up into a bun (like stacey in gavin & stacey at their wedding) the pins were all on show and were hanging out as she didnt have right ones and she didnt put a doughnut in so was flat at thr back. She said on the day we'd do it properly but i dont want to risk it.

Thing is shes not very reliable, when she cuts my hair it gets cancled last min or re-arranged, she told me last week she was defoo coming out for my hen night was going to get a outfit then days later she told me she couldnt make it knowing id paid out!

Now im worrying as shes not very reliable that on the day something will come up and she wont turn up or she'll be late!

I feel like maybe im just stressing over nothing and she wouldnt do that do me on the day but part of be thinks what if?

should i follow my gut instinct and stay with my orginal hair dresser?

I wouldnt risk it - go with your original one.

I agree with everyone so far, I wouldn't risk it. You want to rule out as much chance as possible for anything going wrong on the day.

I'd stick to your original stylist.
Tell your friend you want her there as a guest and not worrying about everyone's hair.

You could even use both.
Your stylist for you and friend for your BMs.

Just stick with the original one, Id sooner pay the extra knowing I have someone reliable who I know will do a good job



I like Lulas sugggestion :)

I wouldn't risk it. I would also suggest what lula suggested - you could always have her freshen up and tidy your hair during the day if you think she'll be offended with you going with your original stylist.

I agree, stick with the person you originally booked.

i agree with everyone else, i wouldnt be risking it x

Follow your gut instinct stick with your original hair stylist be on the safe side hun I Would be worrying she cancels on me at the last minute
