Do you want to transform your look at the next event into one that looks like it came out of a magazine? The secret lies in visiting a professional hair stylist.

Our expert stylists at Haste Hair can transform your ordinary hair into a striking style using scissors and a brush.

A well-chosen hairstyle can elevate your appearance at an event from modest to exceptional. Yet, it is not only about trimming and changing colors; even your face shape is taken into consideration.

Choosing The Right Style For Your Event

When mastering the perfect hairstyle for your occasion, it’s essential to understand the nature of the event. Will it be indoors, outdoors, casual, formal, at night, or during the day?

Addressing the above will help you select the best hairstyle. For instance, if you plan on attending a formal event, your professional hairstylist might recommend a sleek bun or an elegant updo that exudes sophistication.

Attending an outdoor daytime occasion will require a more relaxed style, such as a casual ponytail or soft waves. It’s worth noting that the hairstyle you choose should complement your outfit and resonate with the event’s ambiance.

We recommend striking a balance between the event’s significance and your appearance.

4 Tips For Preparing Your Hair Before The Event

To ensure your style holds through your occasion, a professional hair stylist advises that great styling starts with healthy, well-prepped hair. So, how do you get your hair ready for your big day?

  1. Start with a clean slate by washing your hair with a clarifying shampoo that helps remove product buildup, preventing your hair from looking weighed down and dull.
  2. Next, deep condition your hair a few days before your event. This helps to hydrate your hair before you style it.
  3. Most importantly, avoid washing your hair before you style it, as live-in hair often holds a style better. We recommend washing it in the morning if you are attending an evening event.
  4. If you use heat styling tools, always apply a heat protectant product to help minimize damage.

5 Top Hairstyle Professional Hair Stylist Trends

  • For a sophisticated look, nothing says it more than a sleek bun.
  • Or give yourself a polished yet playful look with textured ponytails.
  • Other highlights are fishtail and waterfall braids.

How to Communicate With Your Hairstylist

Clarity is essential when planning a visit with one of our stylists. We recommend starting by explaining your event, whether it’s a gala, wedding, or casual party.

A detailed explanation helps the stylist match your vibe; they speak louder than words if you can bring pictures. Also, be very honest about your daily routine. For instance, if you do not use a hairdryer, the stylist will not recommend a style that requires heat.

Also, speak up about your likes and dislikes. For instance, bangs might not be your thing, which helps the stylist know what to avoid. Most importantly, whatever feedback you give is a good thing.

Furthermore, a hairstylist does more than cut or style your hair. They are a partner that wants to achieve a perfect look for you.

Essential Hair Care Tips For The Day of The Event

Begin with these expert tips from a professional hair stylist to ensure your hair looks its best on the day of your event.

  1. Keep your hair clean, but avoid washing it right before your event. Instead, wash it the day before, as this provides a better texture for styling.
  2. To prevent damage, apply a heat protectant spray to your hair before using hot tools for styling. Also, avoid using excessive styling gel or hairspray, as they can weigh the hair down.
  3. Visit us for regular trims to help remove split ends, leaving your hair healthy.
  4. Also, drink loads of water and use a leave-in conditioner to keep it shiny and provide it with moisture.

Quick Adjustments And Fixes

If you happen to have a hair mishap before attending the event, you need not sweat, as our professional hair stylists have some quick fixes to save your day.

If you have frizz, apply a small amount of hand lotion to your hands to smooth it out. You will soon be frizz-free. For flyaways, use a clear eyebrow gel to swipe over those rebels to get them looking neat.

If your hair has gone flat, flip your head over and shake it, then use dry shampoo to give it instant volume. Yet, if your style has completely lost its edge, twist it into a low bun for a couple of seconds and let it loose.

Accessorizing For Your Hairstyle

Accessorizing is not only for outfits, but it can also be a game-changer for your hair. When you add the right accessory to your hair, you can transform your look into something jaw-dropping. Still, consider the occasion’s vibe before you start accessorizing your hair.

A simple pin or sleek clip can make a significant difference in a classy yet refined gathering. For a festive and laid-back event, consider using bold elements, such as colorful headbands or flowers. The trick is matching your accessory to your hair texture and length, not just your outfit.

For short hair, you can add subtle pieces without overwhelming your look, while long locks allow you to use bigger pieces or scarves—Accessorize so that you complement your hairstyle.

Professional Hair Stylist Post-Event Hair Care Advice

After partying the night away, you must give your hair tender, loving care. One of the most significant recommendations from our professional hair stylists is to remove your accessories gently to prevent breakage.

Then, give your hair a soothing wash using a shampoo made for your hair type. Follow it up with a hair mask or deep conditioning to replenish moisture. Detangle your hair using a wide-tooth comb, starting from the ends and working your way up.

Then, let your hair dry naturally or use the lowest heat setting on your hairdryer and apply a leave-in conditioner for added nourishment.

Wrap-Up: Professional Hair Stylist Tips

Getting yourself to look your best at an event is not a puzzle. With the tips provided by our professional hair stylist, you can easily nail your look.

Always start with a clear picture of the hairstyle you want. Then, communicate clearly with our stylists to ensure you achieve the desired look.

Never avoid using accessories, as they can turn your hairdo into something spectacular. Matching your outfit and event is about matching your hairstyle and giving it a stunning appearance.

If you decide to do it yourself, consider conducting a trial run with your chosen style a week before your event to iron out any kinks. Or book an appointment with us to help with special occasion styles.
