The Grooms Wedding Hair

Guys you've named the date, the brides getting everything planned and discussing her hair for the day,BUT WHAT ABOUT YOUR HAIR?
Men often make a few mistakes when it comes to their hair on the wedding day. At James Whitaker Hair we like to start the discussion early on with what you can do with your hair.
#1 Dont change your style just before the wedding day. You want to be comfortable with it.
#2 Dont go for high fashion style- it will only date your wedding photo's
#3 Dont get it cut on the day- you dont want to look like you've just come out the Barbers with too sharp a cut.

We like to start talking about a year before the wedding day. This gives you a chance to try a few styles and if need be grow length.
What are you wearing? If you are having a top hat and heavy textured style will go flat or high fashion cut wont look right in a classic suit.
You want to be sure you have the right products and be able to style it comfortably yourself.
We recommend your final cut at least a week before to let it settle and offer a free neck and sideburn shave the day before the wedding.
DONT GET A CUT THROAT SHAVE FOR THE FIRST TIME ON THE WEDDING MORNING!!
Blood spots and a red neck dont look good!!
We work with a highly regarded London Photographer http://danieldaviesphotography.blogspot.com/
who will produce excellent pictures of your day ,so you want to look your best and give the bride a run for her money!

Why buy products from your salon?

One of the most common questions we get asked at the salon is ' I can never do my hair like you can at home'
Now of course we are professionals so we do have an advantage ;) but really the most common problem is use of products.
At James Whitaker Hair in Enfield, we will do our best to explain to the client how to use product properly. Less is generally best! Too many people feel the more they have in the hair the better it will be. If you are using PROFESSIONAL products you only need a small amount. Cheap supermarket products are weaker and of a far less quality so you will NEVER achieve a salon finish at home.
Too much product makes the hair heavy and it will fall and look lank.
A little product in the right place will give you the hold you want.
Do you use the right shampoo?
The right shampoo will make your colour brighter and last longer. You'll only need a fraction of the supermarket amount so will save on the long term.

You trust your stylist to cut your hair and advise on style so why not on the products you use.
Salon hair can be achieved at home,just ask your stylist how.
James Whitaker Hair stocks L'Oreal Professionel, and Therapi products.
Ask us whats best for you,and look great everyday.
