Occasion styling, the running order of an event morning, and a conversation about how you want to come across.
Image consultation is a conversation about presentation, not a verdict on how you look. What you want to be read as in a given room. What you already wear and like. What you have been avoiding and why. Which parts of your routine you will actually keep doing afterward. It is most useful when it is specific and least useful when it turns into someone else's taste being installed over yours, so a consultant asking more questions than they are answering is a good sign.
Occasion styling is the same thinking pointed at one day. What the event is, what everyone else will be wearing, how formal the setting really is, and how all of it will photograph. Hair styling for the occasion is part of that picture — how it is worn on the day and when it happens in the sequence. Anything done to the hair itself, including cutting, coloring, extensions and smoothing treatments, is the salon's work and belongs at salonhabit.com, ideally finished well before the event rather than the week of it.
Then there is the running order, which is where event mornings actually go wrong. Hair and makeup have to be sequenced against each other, against getting dressed, and against when the photographer arrives — with more than one person to get through in most wedding parties. The sequence should be written down in advance, with the finish time set to the first photograph rather than to the ceremony, and with slack built in. Ask for that schedule before the day rather than assembling it that morning.
