Ashleigh Bunting

Multi Award Winning
Bridal Hair Stylist

Welcome and congratulations on your recent engagement!

Your wedding day is one of the most meaningful moments of your life — and you deserve to look just as incredible as you feel.

I’m an award-winning Bridal Hairstylist, proudly recognised with 8 regional and national awards, and I specialise in creating beautiful, bespoke bridal hairstyles that are tailored entirely to you.

When you book with me, you’re not just booking a hairstyle — you’re choosing an experienced professional who will guide you every step of the way. From your initial consultation to your wedding morning, I offer honest advice, expert styling, and a calm, reassuring presence when it matters most.

I believe your hair should enhance your natural beauty, compliment your dress, and reflect your personality — not just follow a trend. If a style won’t suit you or isn’t achievable, I’ll tell you, because my priority is that you feel confident, comfortable and truly yourself.

Based in a stunning salon within The Maidstone Studios, I’m able to offer pre-wedding hair preparation including colour, extensions and intensive conditioning treatments — ensuring your hair is in perfect condition for your big day. Healthy hair really does make all the difference.

I’m also incredibly proud to be a Zen Hair Brand Ambassador, working with premium-quality hair and receiving ongoing professional training to ensure the very best results for my brides.

Let’s create a bridal look you’ll love just as much when you look back at your photos.

“Amazing!!!

Absolutely amazing experience from start to finish! My wedding hair was everything I hoped for and more. The attention to detail, patience, and skill really showed, and I felt completely confident in their hands.
On the morning of the wedding, everything was so calm and well organised, which helped me relax and enjoy every moment. My hair looked flawless and lasted perfectly all day and into the night without moving. Not only a fantastic hairdresser but also such a lovely, friendly person to have there on such an important day.”

Bride Testimonials

Ashleigh was absolutely incredible from start to finish. She guided me through my entire wedding hair journey, from helping me choose and fit extensions to getting my colour absolutely perfect in the months leading up to the big day. Her advice, patience and attention to detail gave me so much confidence that my hair would be exactly how I imagined. On the wedding morning, she was so calm, organised and such a lovely person to have around. She not only created the most beautiful hairstyle for me, but also styled all of my bridesmaids’ hair. Every one of them wanted something completely different, and Ashleigh absolutely nailed every single look. Everyone looked amazing, and each hairstyle suited them perfectly. My hair stayed in place all day and night, despite all the dancing, and I had so many compliments. I genuinely couldn’t have been happier. If you’re looking for a talented, professional hairdresser who truly cares and goes above and beyond, I couldn’t recommend Ashleigh more. Thank you for making me and my bridal party feel so special and helping us all look our best on such an important day!

I booked Ashleigh for my wedding hair after meeting her at a shoot, and I knew right away there was no one else I wanted. At my trial, I showed her just one photo, and she immediately understood my vision. On the wedding day, Ashleigh arrived early and styled my hair, my three bridesmaids, and my mum’s hair beautifully. She even stayed to help when things got stressful just before I walked down the aisle. I can’t recommend Ashleigh enough for your wedding or any special event!

Beautiful Bridal Hair Ashleigh was fantastic from initial consultation through to the big day. She made me feel so at ease and nothing was too much trouble. After my initial trial (which I loved) I spontaneously opted for something totally different and fully trusted Ashleigh to pull it together without another trial. She's exceptionally talented, great value for money and would recommend to any bride!

Ashleigh was a godsend for my wedding!!! Even whilst planning for the big day across different time zones, she made coordination as seamless as possible. She gave my bridal party and family beautiful, romantic hair -- not to mention a traditional Korean bun for my mum, which I especially appreciated. Even under a time crunch (I'm sorry, Ashleigh!!!), she got my hair in a gorgeous updo in record time. Even with a heavy cathedral veil, my hair DID NOT BUDGE for hours after the ceremony. I strongly recommend working with Ashleigh to complete your beautiful looks for your big day.

I honestly couldn't recommend Ashleigh enough! From all of the appointments up to my trial right through to my wedding morning, she was absolutely amazing. She completely understood the look I was going for and created the most beautiful hairstyle that was exactly what I'd envisioned. It looked incredible all day and night, despite the warm weather, and I had so many compliments. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she's also such a lovely, calming presence to have around on the morning of your wedding. She made the whole experience feel relaxed and enjoyable, and she styled not only my hair but my bridesmaids' and mum's beautifully too. Thank you so much for making me feel so confident and beautiful on such a special day. I genuinely couldn't have asked for a better hair stylist and would recommend Ashleigh to any bride without hesitation!

My wedding hair was everything and more I could have asked for, from the first appointment to the last appointment Ashleigh was always there to guide me the right way. The colour of my hair, the extensions, the trials everything was perfect. I will forever be a client of Ashleigh’s now✨ I am so happy I picked Ashleigh - absolutely amazing

From the bottom of my heart thank you. We don’t know what to say to thank you enough for everything you have done. You are talented, kind and also the driving force to the key worker competition. Thank you for giving myself and my new husband the wedding of a lifetime. I asked you to make me look like a Hollywood movie star and you absolutely did that. Your presence was so calm in the morning even when suddenly I felt overwhelmed. Forever thankful to you. Connie and Sam xx

I want to say a massive thank you to Ashleigh for creating hairstyles that made me, my Mum and four bridesmaids all feel incredibly beautiful on such a special day. Not only was Ashleigh incredibly organised (she actually beat us to the venue and was already prepped and ready to go!) and calm, but she was also incredibly warm and friendly, which helped set the tone for the morning and made it feel as if a friend was helping you to get ready. As someone who can be quite indecisive, I found the hir trial fantastic. On her suggestion, Ashleigh tried two different hairstyles on me to give me choice, but also not overwhelm, even then, I found it incredibly hard to decided as they were both perfect. From taking an interest in how I wanted to feel on the day and the overall look I was going for, Ashleigh was great at helping me decide. The actualy day could not have gone smoother. My Mum and four bridesmaids all have very different hair and preferences, and I was keen they all had hairstyles that not only made them feel beautiful, but felt like them. Ashleigh was so attentive and took the time to understand their preferences and styles, and it was wonderful to see how happy they all were with their final look. After the trial, my hair was just as fabulous as I thought it would, and stayed that way for the entire day, which for fine hair thay doesn't like to hold curls was great! From start to finish, Ashleigh was amazing and I cannot thank or recommend her enough.
