Upstyle Narrabeen | Glow Beauty Space
Darling, we do hair so good it hurts. When your event calls for hair that actually stays in place — and looks intentional doing it — the upstyle team at Glow Beauty Space in North Narrabeen is ready for you.
Whether you're heading to a wedding on the Northern Beaches, a formal, a corporate gala, or a celebration you've been looking forward to for months — an upstyle is a styling commitment that requires real skill. A half-hearted updo falls down by dinner. A properly built, well-pinned style holds through ceremony, speeches, dancing, and the drive home.
At Glow Narrabeen, our stylists bring the experience and technique that occasions deserve. From a classic low bun with a sleek finish to a romantic braided updo with soft face-framing pieces, we work to your references, your outfit, and your personality — not a generic template.
What to Expect
Your upstyle appointment at Glow Narrabeen runs like this:
- Consultation: We discuss your occasion, desired look, accessories (veil, headpiece, hairpieces), and reference images. For brides, we also discuss timing and the order of your wedding morning.
- Hair prep: Most upstyles work best on day-old hair with slight texture. Your stylist will advise exactly what to do before your appointment.
- Building the style: The upstyle is constructed methodically — foundation and structure first, then detailing, then finishing pieces. Pins and grips are placed for maximum hold.
- Finishing: Flyaways are managed, tendrils arranged or smoothed depending on your style, and a finishing product applied. You'll get a full mirror check — front, sides, back — before you leave.
Appointment time is approximately 45–90 minutes depending on style complexity and hair length/density.
Pricing
Upstyle pricing on the Northern Beaches typically falls between $80–$180 depending on the style and hair. Bridal and wedding party bookings may have different pricing structures — ask us directly.
All pricing is confirmed at booking. Call or book online for current rates at Narrabeen.
Who Is This Best For
An upstyle at Glow Narrabeen is the right choice for:
- Brides who want a properly executed look that lasts a full wedding day — including a trial run beforehand
- Wedding party members — bridesmaids, mothers of the bride/groom, flower girls with longer hair
- Event attendees — formals, galas, engagement parties, christenings, any occasion where your hair should look deliberate
- Anyone who's tried pinning their own hair up before a big night and found it sliding out before the entrée arrived
If the occasion matters, the hair needs to be done properly.
Aftercare
Your upstyle is built to last. Here's how to help it along:
- Avoid touching it — oils from your hands disrupt sections and pins
- Carry spare bobby pins for minor emergencies (a loose tendril, a shifted pin)
- Avoid humidity where possible — particularly relevant for outdoor Northern Beaches events near the water
- Don't tug or pull if you need to adjust — lift and repin rather than drag
- To take it down: remove pins one by one, carefully. Running your fingers through before pins are out is the fastest way to turn a good upstyle into a tangled disaster.
A well-pinned upstyle on prepared hair should hold for 6–10+ hours.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should I book a trial?
For brides, yes — every time. A trial lets you see the look before the day, gives your stylist a chance to refine the technique for your hair, and removes a significant amount of wedding morning stress. Book your trial at least 4–6 weeks before your wedding.
What's the best way to prepare my hair?
Wash your hair the evening before, not the morning of. Day-old hair has texture and natural grip that freshly washed hair lacks. Avoid heavy conditioning treatments or oils in the days before your appointment. Your stylist will give you specific instructions at booking.
How long will it last?
A properly constructed upstyle holds for a full event — 6–10 hours for most hair types. Fine, straight hair may require more preparation and product. Your stylist will account for your hair type when building the style.
Do I need to have long hair?
Not necessarily. Some upstyle options require minimum length, but many work on mid-length hair too. Very short hair has limited options, though a skilled stylist can usually find something. Be upfront about your length at booking — we'll tell you honestly what's achievable.
Can I book makeup at the same time?
Yes. Glow Narrabeen offers makeup services alongside hair, and many clients book both for the same morning. Coordinate at booking so timing is planned properly — particularly for weddings where everything runs to a schedule.
