Welcome to The Travelling Stylist, where I, Kate Martin, am dedicated to providing top-quality mobile hair and makeup services. Originally from Sydney, Australia, I completed a comprehensive 4-year apprenticeship and obtained a trade license in hairdressing. Additionally, I undertook a full year's training in makeup artistry. With over 12 years of experience in the hair and makeup industry, I have honed my skills and expanded my expertise to include wig styling, cutting, and coloring.

Wigs and Hairpieces

I recognize that every individual has unique hair and facial features. That's why I take great care to craft a wig that complements your natural beauty. During a crucial consultation, we will collaborate to design a customized hairstyle that enhances your facial features. I begin by understanding your desires and preferences, and then we build a plan together to create your perfect wig.

I work with two types of wig materials: human hair and synthetic hair. While both can be cut to style, only human hair can be colored. Furthermore, please note that if you choose a synthetic wig and wish to change its style, the process may take several days, as hot tools or dryers cannot be used on them. Instead, they must be left to drip dry, so please allow up to 5 days from drop-off to pickup.

Regardless of the type of wig or hairpiece you have - full-cap, open-cap, or partial coverage (winglet) - I am equipped to style them all. I perform wig styling services in the private setting of my family home, providing a comfortable and intimate atmosphere where you can feel at ease. Wig styling services are charged by the hour, and an estimate can be provided during our consultation.

Please bring the following items to your consultation:

1. Your wig or hairpiece

2. Photos of styles or colors you like

3. Any tape or adhesive
