A hairstyle that looks amazing on girls with fine to medium hair thickness. We just add texture, volume and maybe some hair padding! Looks extra special with hair highlights and jewelled hair pins. ⠀

“Wanted to say a massive thank you for the amazing Hair and Makeup for our wedding in Byron Bay in December. Myself, my family and my bridal crew all agree that you both give such a happy and chilled vibe when working. Perfect for what can be a day filled with a few nerves!
 So appreciate that you came down to Byron Bay, and I absolutely loved my hair and makeup! Felt a million dollars.
 Thank you so much Karrisa and Michelle. You were awesome!!” #realreview #kmlover #kmbride
