Finding someone to do your wedding hair is just as important as finding your dream dress and there’s just as much choice. If you are searching for someone who will give you the wow factor then the Bridal Hair by Sam Gateley & Team could be just what you are looking for.

We have been helping brides achieve their dream look since 2003 and have always maintained our commitment to making you feel as special as you deserve from the minute you contact us. 

Wedding hair isn’t just about the final result. It’s about the whole experience and we pride ourselves on making each and every bride happy. 

If we haven't met yet, I'm Sam. A salon owner, wedding hair stylist, wedding hair educator, and proud fur mum to two pugs, Dobby and Bella. I'm also a Harry Potter lover, red wine enthusiast, foodie, and currently planning my own Christmas 2026 wedding!

Wedding hair has been at the heart of my career for many years and remains my biggest passion. I genuinely live and breathe bridal styling, and there's nothing I love more than helping brides feel their absolute best on one of the most important days of their lives.

Most Mondays, you'll find me teaching all things bridal. I offer masterclasses, one-to-one education, and salon-based training, sharing the skills, techniques, and knowledge I've built throughout my career with fellow hairstylists who want to elevate their bridal work.

The rest of my week is split between two places I love. First is my salon a place that's been part of my life since I started there as a Saturday girl back in 2001. Today, I'm proud to own the salon and work alongside an incredible team who make every day enjoyable.

The other part of my week is spent travelling to weddings, creating beautiful bridal hair for my wonderful brides. This never feels like work to me; it's the part of my job that fills my cup and reminds me why I fell in love with bridal hair in the first place.

Whether you're a bride looking for your dream wedding hairstyle, a stylist joining one of my masterclasses, or someone investing in private education, I can't wait to meet you and be part of your journey.

The Team By Bridal Hair By Sam Gateley

I have carefully selected some of the most talented stylists in the industry via my bridal hair education business and have trained them to offer the same style and service as I offer my brides.

Alongside making brides feel beautiful on their wedding day, we put them at ease, and always go that extra mile.

My team of experienced hairdressers have been in the industry for many years. As fully trained hairdressers we can help with all of your pre wedding hair preparation and we are there every step of the way, no unforeseen problem can faze us on your wedding day. We see being part of your day as a privilege but styling your hair on your big day is just the icing on the cake.


You will be shown your stylists portfolio before you reserve your date. You’ll be given their full contact details once your date is reserved so you can get to know your bridal team before your big day.
