Inspired Hair is a bridal and event hairdressing service on Kawau Island in the Hauraki Gulf. It is owned and run by Melissa Bhikha, a bridal hair stylist based in Auckland who travels across New Zealand. The business began with award-winning bridal stylist Robyn Munro, who handed over the business.
The service offers personal hairdressing, mobile bridal hair and event hairstyling. Hair is done on location, so the bride and bridal party are prepared at home or at the venue. A trial is held before the wedding day, and the stylist can make custom hair pieces or add padding and extensions where needed. The website suggests allowing 60 minutes per person for hair on the day, and it advises washing and blow-drying the night before. Our view is that it is a practical choice for a wedding on Kawau Island or elsewhere in the Hauraki Gulf.
