Hair Beautique

💙 A little blue moment 💙

As you may have seen, I previously created a gorgeous blue balayage for this beauty, and I was lucky enough to style her hair for her summer ball too! 🫶🏻

Originally, we were going for a half up, half down style, but with the weather being ridiculously hot that day, we decided a loose, textured low bun would be perfect to keep her hair out of the way! ☀️

And well… I’m absolutely OBSESSED with how this blue looks in an updo! 😍💙

Sometimes a little change of plan works out even better! 🫶🏻

✨ I’M COMING BACK! ✨

My first full week back in the salon will be
Monday 16th November 🫶🏻
I’m also working Friday 13th November 💗

For now, my new working days will be:

✂️ MONDAYS
✂️ FRIDAYS
✂️ SATURDAYS

I’ll also be working a few extra days over the Christmas period 🎄✨

I’ll be posting my availability very soon!

For now, I’ve kept myself OFF online booking, so if you’d like to book an appointment with me, just drop me a message 🫶🏻

Can’t wait to be back behind the chair and see you all! 🤍

Let’s brighten me up, please! 🙏💗

From a natural warm blonde to a beautiful, fresh, natural balayage! ✨

I’ve only used blonde highlights for this transformation, using WellaPlex bleach to protect the condition of the hair while giving it a gorgeous blonde refresh! 😍

Toned with Colour Touch /16 & /36 to neutralise any unwanted warmth, followed by a cut and curls to finish! 🫶🏻

We decided against a root melt as we wanted to keep everything super natural, allowing for a softer grow-out without needing those roots done every 6 weeks! 🙌🏻

Low-maintenance blonde is always a winner! 💗

Not long now until I’m back behind the chair, guys! I can’t wait to see you all! 🥰

Ohhh a little throwback to one of my May weddings 🫶🏻💍

I still have a few weddings left for this year and I’m sooo excited to get straight back into it! 🥰

My wedding diary is open for 2027 & 2028 and it’s already filling up nicely, which I’m so grateful for 🫶🏻

Andddd I’m officially back in the salon the week of 16th November 🥳✂️

For all my March & April brides, I’ll be getting in touch soon to start booking your trials in for January & February 🫶🏻

I can’t wait to get back to doing what I love and being part of all your gorgeous wedding mornings 🤍

As if it’s been 6 years since I got the keys to Hair Beautique 🥹🫶🏻

And wow… what a journey it has been!

I genuinely wouldn’t still be here doing what I love without all of my lovely clients. Some of you have been with me from the very beginning, some have joined me along the way, but every single appointment, recommendation, like, share and bit of support has helped keep my little salon going and I honestly can’t express how grateful I am 🫶🏻

Being away from the salon at the moment has actually made me realise just how much I miss my job! I miss doing hair, the chats, the laughs and seeing all your lovely faces… although right now my days are slightly different with newborn cuddles, nappies and chasing a crazy toddler around 🤣💙💗

It’s crazy to think that 6 years ago I had just turned 30, was still a party girl and Hair Beautique was my new baby… fast forward 6 years and I’m now a mum of two beautiful babies! Who would have thought my Saturday nights would go from getting ready to go out to trying to get a toddler to bed while holding a newborn 😂🙊 How times change!

Hair Beautique has been through so many different chapters of my life with me and I’m so proud that 6 years later I can still call it mine 🫶🏻

So here’s to 6 years of Hair Beautique 🥂
Thank you to every single person who has been a part of it — I really couldn’t have done it without you.

And don’t worry… I’ll be back behind that chair before you know it ✂️🫶🏻

Love,
Alex xx

Life update 🫶🏻

Hey everyone! Just wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone who has messaged and checked in on us, it honestly means so much 🫶🏻

Well… whoever told me labour was quicker and easier the second time 🖕🏻😂😂

I’ve been in a lot of pain and really struggling to get about, so I’ve pretty much just been resting and recovering. I’m slowly on the mend though, and hopefully after a few more days of taking it easy I’ll start feeling a bit more alive again 🙊😂

Once I’m feeling more human, I’ll start figuring out what I’m doing with salon life and what hours I’ll be doing✂️🫶🏻

Luca James is doing so well 💙 and luckily for me, he seems to enjoy his sleep 🙊 Mia is absolutely loving being a big sister… although she still hasn’t quite figured out what the word gentle means 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

For now, I’m just soaking up the newborn cuddles, resting and enjoying my munchkins 🫶🏻

Lots of love,
Alex

Well, that was great… I managed ONE whole day off before little man decided to make his appearance! 🤣🙊 And what an absolute whirlwind it’s been! 💙

Welcome to the world, Luca James Stephens 💙

Weighing a whopping 9lb 9oz… which definitely explains why I was the size of a house! 🤣🙊 Can’t wait for to tell you all about it 🫶🏻

And of course, I love the fact you decided to arrive the day before Mia’s birthday 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣

I’m absolutely obsessed, completely in love and absolutely shattered all at the same time. 💙

And that’s me done 🙊🤰🏻💙

I still can’t quite believe I’m crazy enough to be having another baby 🤣 but the scissors are officially down and now it’s time to get ready to meet little man… although I HATE WAITING 🙊🤣

This pregnancy has definitely been sooo much harder! I don’t know if it’s because I have a crazy toddler at home, because I’m older this time… or maybe the 100 heatwaves we’ve had 🥵🤣

This page will probably be a little quieter over the next couple of months. I’ll still be helping with messages where I can, but replies may take a little longer than usual 🫶🏻

If you need to change an appointment with Kelsey, it’s best to either message her directly on Kelsey or call the salon on 01733 214906.

A massive thank you to everyone who has stuck by me and been so patient recently, especially over these last few weeks when being on my feet has definitely been a struggle! 🫶🏻

But don’t worry, I’ll be back before you know it making you all feel beautiful again before the C word… 🎄🙊🤣

And of course, when little man finally makes his appearance, I’ll let you all know 💙 Once he’s here and we’re settled, I’ll also be able to confirm my proper return date and what my working hours will look like.

Thank you for all the love and support 🫶🏻

Love you all,
Alex

Bridesmaids 🫶🏻

This lovely lady had tape-in hair extensions, which can sometimes be a little tricky to hide when creating a half-up, half-down style… but there’s always a way around it! 🙊

I created two soft twists to give this beautiful half-up detail, then curled the rest of the hair for a soft, full finish 🫶🏻

And can we just appreciate this colour too?! 😍 Absolutely gorgeous!

My diary for next year is filling up nicely, which is so exciting! 🥰 If you’d like a quote for your wedding, simply fill out my enquiry form through the booking link 🫶🏻

Mother of the Bride 🩵✨

Such a beautiful style for the Mother of the Bride 🫶🏻

We went for a soft half-up, half-down style with plenty of curls and a little detail through the back, finished perfectly with her gorgeous fascinator. 🩵

Elegant, soft and perfect for such a special day! ✨

I absolutely love getting the mums ready too — they deserve to feel just as special! 🫶🏻
