The Powder Room is a buzz wondering what Kate Middleton is going to look like for her Wedding day! Most of us think that she is going to have her hair down in some way, as her hair is one of her most beautiful features! Thinking that a half up and had down look is a possibility.

Kate’s hair is being styled by her hairdresser James Pryce and there is a lot of talk about if she will be wearing a tiara or not. Camilla is keen for Kate to wear a tiara, and the Queen would like her to wear Diana’s tiara. Kate may wear flowers and break tradition. This is what we found showing a sneak peak of an idea of what James may have in mind for Kate’s hairstyle if she decided to go for an upstyle.





Just for a bit of a giggle check out the video of Kate and William dancing down the aisle.

We are coming to that time of year when we are starting to plan out 2012 collection and we are thinking that we might do a Kate Royal Wedding hairstyle look alike. So make sure you keep checking out our Facebook and Blog for updates!

Cheryleigh and Kory were married on 2nd April and looked after by the fabulous, Sarah and Rebecca, Powder Room hair and makeup artists on the big day.

Net Productions have created a gorgeous wedding teaser from their wedding day we thought we’d love to share with you below!

Congratulations Cheryleigh & Kory!

Lots of Asian Brides ask us “are you experienced in different culture Weddings hair and make up…and the answer is Yes, Yes Yes, we love our brides and are experienced in looking after different nationalities.  Minyen was such a beautiful Bride, Sarah and Sue looked after Minyen and we wanted to share these beautiful images, photographed by the talented Ben Clark. Minyen’s gorgeous side soft low style was created by using a hair padding to support the style.  Bar lash extensions really enhanced Minyen’s gorgeous eyes.  The girls all had airbrush make up to complete the flawless foundation look.  The Powder Room has a studio in New Farm and a Mobile service, as the girls travelled out to Minyen on the day to her home.

One lovely day a gorgeous bride called Aleisha was married on the 26th February ……Weddings really are a Fairytale event and it always excites me to see our Brides on their special day!  Aleisha’s photo’s from her Wedding day took away our breath!  Captured by the talented Jade and Matt at The Arched Window.  Her gorgeous Chantilly lace dress really was a Fab frock! Sarah and Sarah Jane created the gorgeous hair and make up on Aleisha’s Wedding party on the day and the girls had so much fun being apart of Aleisha’s day! We wanted to share with you all what is used to create these beautiful shaped Wedding hairstyles.  Every girls has to cheat a little!  Using hair paddings and hairpieces can really help in creating the perfect look.  Paddings are used to create a beautiful shape and also to give support, particularly if you are having a heavier veil.  Hairpieces are wonderful if you don’t have quite enough hair to wrap around the bottom of the mould.  At the Powder Room we allow double the time on your Wedding trial day to chat through your look ideas and work out the best way for you to create that amazing Wedding day look!

Check ou the Paddings we can use to create beautifully shaped hairstyles and hairpieces for extra thickness and length.

Jody and Sarah Jane looked after Emily’s Wedding yesterday at Stradbroke Island and the girls really enjoyed the day.  WE really do have the best job, being able to work in such lovely environments.  Emily has been living in the UK and this was part of Emily’s email to us just before she arrived.


“OMG I CANNA wait for the heat! I am doing sun dances everyday.  So I’m praying for hot baking days! BRING ON THE SUNNNNNNNNN!!”….well it was the most beautiful day and here is a few snaps from the day that Jody took on her iphone and emailed to us, such an instantaneous world we live in!


Please  we’d love to hear what everyone thinks of these gorgeous looks!  Braids are a classic style but that doesn’t mean they have to be boring, absolutely perfect for a beach Wedding.
