Getting ready for a wedding in Palm Beach and West Palm Beach means preparing to battle humidity. In June, you can expect humidity levels to be between 74% to 80%. All bets are off, because high humidity can cause hair to:
- Fall flat
- Frizz out
- Lose shape
The temperatures outside might be delightful, but that humidity can wreak havoc on gorgeous hair styles—including the bride’s. Rely on the salon specialists at Anushka Spa, Salon, and Cosmedical Centre for perfect wedding hair in West Palm Beach.
Our team has decades of styling experience, having taken care of top models, media stars, and VIPs who needed to look their best at West Palm Beach’s finest galas. Book your appointment early and let’s plan together for your big day.
Your Palm Beach Timeline for Humidity-Proof Hair
For bridal hair that lasts in Florida humidity, start by locking in your stylist and your appointments.
Now: Get to Know Anushka’s Salon Team
We highly recommend you first visit Anushka salon several months in advance so we can schedule your appointments leading up to your beautiful wedding day.
If you haven’t already enjoyed the sun-drenched salon at Anushka, there’s no time like the present. When you book your hair appointment, a guest services specialist will likely ask you questions about:
- What you’re looking to accomplish
- Your current hair specifics (color/style/product choices)
- How long before your special event
- How soon you can come in.
This information helps us find the most appropriate appointment time and stylist for you.
Your Initial Appointment at Anushka
The first thing you’ll notice is our complementary valet service. Next, step through the doors into our chic, energetic interior, where our guest services staff checks you in for your appointment.
Your Special Day Starts Today
As our team prepares for your service, enjoy a selection of delicacies while you wait. Browse our upscale fashion boutique, drink herbal tea and enjoy the upper-level view of Downtown West Palm Beach, or sip an infused water while relaxing in one of our plush chairs.
When your station is ready, your Anushka stylist will start by discussing the details surrounding your wedding hair in West Palm Beach, such as:
- Your dress. Your hair style should work visually with your dress for head-to-toe beauty, especially its neckline, back, sleeves, and overall silhouette.
- The wedding veil. It’s important to know veil length and placement for appropriate hair styling—ensuring any and all pins are well concealed. (Be sure to tell us about any other hair accessories you decide on if you are opting not to wear a veil!)
- Your hopes. This includes the overall vision for your appearance and the events of the day.
Your stylist will also assess your hair’s current condition, texture, and volume to suggest extensions or treatments if warranted. We may also suggest supplements to take that support your hair, such as:
- Biotin
- Collagen
- Hair-specific supplements
These supplements promote hair strength, thickness, and optimal growth from the inside out. This way, your hair has the best chance of standing up to high humidity.
6 Months to W-Day
We can work with almost any timeline, so if you’ve had some last-minute needs that brought you to us (your hairstylist fell through, scheduling an appointment got lost in the shuffle, etc.), we’ll do everything possible to de-stress your tresses and make your dream wedding hair in West Palm Beach come true.
That said, we highly recommend starting your wedding hair planning at least 6 months in advance. From your first appointment at Anushka to your first dance as a couple at the reception, it’s best to set up your hair (and makeup) appointments well in advance.

3 Months to W-Day
Will you be making any major changes to your hair color? Now is the time to start the process. By the time your wedding day styling appointment occurs, your hair will have already gone through the stress of full coloring and will only require maintenance.
You should also start (if you haven’t already) deep conditioning your hair. Your Anushka stylist will recommend products and frequency that work best with your hair’s specific type and quality. Two of our top choices are Oribe and Kerastase. We also have in-salon nourishing hair treatments by both of these brands
This maximizes hydration so that your wedding hair in West Palm Beach will best hold its style through the day’s events.
We may also recommend Keratin treatments if you struggle with frizz—one of the major issues that comes with Florida’s heat and humidity.
Your stylist may also schedule regular trimming to remove split ends (rather than trying to grow out the damage). This scheduled trimming helps your wedding day arrive with the healthiest length of hair for styling.
2 Months to W-Day
Just like a dress rehearsal for a major Broadway performance, your stylist will set up a “trial run” for your hair. You’ll come to Anushka’s salon with:
- Your bridal veil
- All expected hair accessories
- Makeup in place
We’ll see how the ensemble works together, testing the weight and stability of the veil and accessories, and ensure that the color, tone, and fullness of your hair achieves the desired results. Your trial run will include taking pictures from multiple angles so we have a record of what worked where—and a reference to take home with you to show off to your friends.
2 Weeks to W-Day
It’s time for your final coloring, including any highlights or lowlights. By doing this step 10 to 14 days before your wedding, the color will have time to settle.
If needed, we may also do a last, light trim to make sure we address the style, such as side bang trim, bang trim, and finesse that style while still retaining the length necessary for your wedding hair in West Palm Beach.
Day Before W-Day
Depending on the hair style choice, you should wash your hair the evening before the wedding. If you wash your hair the day of your wedding, the freshly cleaned strands may be too soft and/or slippery to best hold your wedding hair style.
If you’re planning certain updos, your Anushka stylist may recommend a different wedding-eve protocol. We’ll make sure you have all the information you need for the best possible outcome.
W-Day Is Here!
Most of our brides make an in-salon appointment for their wedding-day styling. We can arrange on-location wedding hair styling with additional fees, but to a greater degree brides (and grooms!) schedule their appointment to occur here in the delightful energy of Anushka salon.
When you come in, be sure to wear a button-down or zippered shirt. You don’t want a pull-over shirt that risks jostling your finished style when you change into your wedding clothes.
Here Comes the Bride’s Vision
Now is when the experience and artful dedication of your Anushka stylist truly shine. We may use any (or all) of the following to make your hair amazing while also giving it the resilience to stay perfect even in our West Palm Beach humidity:
- Professional-grade anti-humidity sprays
- Texture sprays
- Light hairsprays designed specifically to withstand the South Florida climate
Anushka: A Bride’s Choice for Humidity-Defying Style

From short wedding hair to long wedding hair, natural to colored hair—and even full bridal party hair—we can provide styling that makes your wedding day memories magical and your confidence truly shine.
FAQs About Wedding Hair
In West Palm Beach, our clientele asks insightful questions. Anushka’s hair experts are ready to answer.
How much should I pay for wedding hair?
Several factors influence how much you should pay for wedding hair. There is no definitive one-size-fits-all price, because one hairstyle doesn’t fit all. Some of the considerations for pricing include:
- Complexity of the style
- Products/treatments required to complete the style
- In-salon vs on-location styling
- Add-ons such as hair extensions
- Bridal party considerations
- Your wedding budget
In West Palm Beach, high-end services such as Anushka’s in-salon bridal updo starts at $139 and up—so we can meet any budget. When you come in for your first appointment, your stylist will guide you through these considerations and others so that you can have a budgetary expectation in mind.
Which hair style is best for a wedding?
The hair style that is best for your wedding is the one that makes you feel absolutely beautiful. Your stylist will discuss how certain hairstyles work with the conditions and activities expected on your special day.
For elegance that holds up under our heat and humidity, we’ll make suggestions that either perfectly match or closely support your vision. Popular styles to consider for wedding hair in West Palm Beach include:
- Texture Chignon/Bun: keeps hair off the neck while being both elegant and reliable.
- Low Ponytail: minimizes frizz at the base of the neck and allows the neckline to breath.
- Half-Up/Half Down: softens facial lines while securing the top for veil placement.
