Testimonials

Krystle and Bonnie I just wanted to say you made my day with how amazing you made me feel I can't stop looking at my hair in my wedding photos wondering how you created such incredible detail in my hair up and the colour you did before my wedding as I had had it coloured by someone else the week before and they made a huge mess of it you made me feel like I could trust you to make me look and feel beautiful. And you did my husband couldn't stop crying as I walked up to him, the girls and my mum also loved how you made them feel beautiful thank you so much.

Dear Krystle, I would like to say a BIG HUGE thank-you for playing such an important part of my Wedding. As you know I didn't have a lot of hair to play with at the time but thanks to your magical fingers you made me look and feel like a million dollars, and turned all my Bridesmaids into Angels. My hair lasted all day and night, and was still holding strong the next day when we arrived in the humid heat of a Brisbane summers day. You're radiant personality took away my entire Wedding jitters, and I was able to sit back and relax and enjoy being pampered. I can't thank you enough for the way you made me look and feel, you are one in a million, and such a talented woman.

First time client, and will be glad to return! A massive THANK YOU to Ashleigh from the salon. Your recommendation and reassurance was amazing as I am very indecisive and don't get my hair done frequently, so major thumbs up and fully recommended to guys and girls!

Hi Krystle. My new husband and I wish to thank you so much for helping to make our wedding day as special as it was. Our hair and makeup looked and stayed absolutely flawless throughout the entire day and helped make our photos unforgettable. I will be highly recommending you to my other engaged friends and wish you both all the best.

I am from Australia and wasn't sure who to use as my hair and makeup artist. After looking on the wedding forum I knew I wanted Krystle she is highly recommended by so many people I spoke to photographers and even a celebrant and they all told me she was the best, she was from the time we were in contact I knew we would work well together. She went out of her way to help me and from the trial she worked magic even putting her latest extensions in and the eyelashes my husband loved how confident I was a felt a million dollars thank you so much Krystle.

Krystle helped make my wedding such a special day. She was relaxed and professional and helped make the whole getting ready process as enjoyable one. We were all amazed at how fast Krystle was designing our hair, and I had a lot of comments on how amazing it looked, people couldn't believe it was all my own hair. My make-up was also really wonderful, I have quite sensitive skin and have to be careful with what I use, and it was absolutely fine no reactions what so ever. It was also nice that it wasn't too heavy and it certainly lasted the whole day I was also very impressed by the knowledge that Krystle displayed with all products she used. I would fully recommend her to anyone.

I have had my hair done by Krystle for my school ball, graduation, and now my wedding. Every time Krystle has created a different style depending on the look I am after she loves her job and you can tell, she also colours my hair I am a regular colour client and also have started getting my eyelashes extensions done Krystle is a fun, hardworking person who I would recommend to anyone.

Krystle I can't believe how you did it, two days after the earthquake without power at your studio you coloured my hair and did my eyelash extensions from you house to have me ready for my special day with all that was going on you made me feel so good I looked and felt fantastic on my wedding day I thank you for all you did with what was going on around us.

Krystle I arrived to my trial with you with no ideas of what I really wanted you and me put some ideas together and the first hair up you created was just perfect you had listened to what I liked and didn't like and put it all together I was not stressed at all on my wedding day knowing I was in your hands I was so happy with the end results and so were my bridesmaids I can't wait for you to do my hair at my sister’s wedding next year.

I love coming to Astonish, my stylist is Rowena who I have been going to for years. I am one of those people who don't have firm ideas on what I want and Rowena is always helpful with suggesting what would work (and what wouldn't) which is just what you want from your stylist! I've never been disappointed and always get good comments from people for weeks afterwards! Astonish has such a great vibe, I look forward to my visits, all the staff are fun and so lovely, and after hard day I am always in a much better mood when I leave! I would also trust any of the others there loose on my hair (which is not something I would have said about other salons I previously went to) I would recommend both Rowena and Astonish to anyone (and often do) in a heartbeat! Great work team!

I was a first time client yesterday and Krystle did the most AMAZING job of my hair. Took me from a multi coloured mess to a full head of foils in ash blonde. I LOVE it and feel so confident and happy with how it looks, will definitely be back again.

I used Krystle for my wedding on December 6th 2008 and she did a fantastic job of my bridesmaid, my mums and my hair. I found Krystle to be very experienced and professional. From the hair trials to our wedding day Krystle was so helpful with great advice and listened to what I really wanted and the results were fantastic. I had so many comments on my bridesmaids and my hairstyle on our wedding day and I was stoked with the results. Not only did I have a fantastic hair stylist for my wedding day but Krystle is now my hairdresser, she is that good!

Rowena has been my hairdresser for 10 years - I'm so lucky having Rowena as a hairdresser - not only because I love the way she cuts my hair. Rowena will always listen to my fussy requests and offers great advice on style and products - she also cuts my children's hair and has helped my teenage son develop a really cool individual style of his own. I have only great things to say about Ro and can highly recommend her.

Krystle. Thank you so much for the amazing job you did for my wedding. My bridesmaids and I were all really happy with our makeup. We were really happy with our hair as well; it looked great the entire day, despite spending an hour in strong winds at the top of the Port Hills! I really appreciated that you listened to what we wanted and managed to get it just right. We had so many comments on how stunning we all looked. I cannot recommend Krystle highly enough they were both very professional, well organised and lovely to deal with.

When I first meet Krystle we just clicked straight away. She has such a passion for what she does and is very knowledgeable and well respected in her field. I had haircuts and colours leading up to our wedding and have always been extremely happy with the work she has done. On our wedding day Krystle did such an amazing job I was so happy with both hair and makeup on my three bridesmaids and myself, I had lots of compliments on the day the makeup lasted the whole day and our hair looked great all day, I would highly recommend Krystle to any bride.

What an amazing job you did with my bridesmaids’ hair and mine for my wedding. You listened to exactly what style I wanted and ensured all of our hair was perfect for my big day. When you arrived at my house on such an emotional day you had such a calm presence and made me feel at ease. Not only did our hair look stunning, it also stayed in all day. When people look at our wedding photos the first thing that most people say is how fantastic my hair looked! As well as looking after me for my special day you also look after me as your regular client, ensuring I always get an appointment and making sure my hair looks great every time I leave your salon. A huge thank you for making my special day such a perfect one! There is no one who could have done a better job than you.

First time client. Had my hair cut and coloured by Aleisha. She is so lovely, really gentle and takes her time. Absolutely loved what she did with my hair, colour came out fab! It's so nice to go to a salon where all the staff are friendly and chatty. I felt totally relaxed and can't wait for my next visit.

I had a gel polish, eye lash and brow tint and it's the best I've ever had! The service was fantastic and Gemma who was my beautician was lovely and presentable. Would highly recommend going to get treatments here!

I would like to thank you so much for the amazing hairstyles you created on my wedding day, even with you needing to start at 6am to get through ten peoples hair for our 11am wedding you made our morning so fun and stress free. You are very talented in what you do and it shows through your hair designs, your assistant was also so great too you work so great together. I have had three of my friends book you already from seeing our hair at our wedding I can't wait for you to design me a hair up again in the future.

Bonnie you did such a fantastic job of our hair and makeup. We felt beautiful our makeup was so natural just what we wanted and our hair was amazing the style you created made me look like I had so much hair and suited the look I wanted I can tell how passionate you are about what you do thanks again.

Krystle I am back in Australia looking at my photos and can't believe how amazing you made my hair look you went out of your way, with all the photos I emailed you before my wedding and how you put a bit of everything together to make a hair up just for me thank you for making me feel like so beautiful I have the photos to enjoy forever, I would recommend you to anyone who is getting married.

Had an amazing pedicure this morning! My feet feel incredibly soft and silky :D will definitely be back for more. Thanks ladies!!

I used Krystle for my wedding hairdresser and she was incredible from the time I met her I knew how much she enjoyed her job with a big passion when it came to designing, putting together and achieving a style to suit you for your wedding day. She did eight people’s hair on my wedding day I couldn't believe how calm and enjoyable she made my getting ready time. My bridesmaids each had a different picture and Krystle gave advice and helped each of them get there desired looks they were after, I wanted my hair to look thick and curly and didn't have the hair at all for it but Krystle went out of her way to achieve my dream look and she did it, it was still looking fantastic at midnight everyone loved it and my photos look amazing. I look forward to using Krystle in the future for making me feel beautiful.

Dear Krystle, I would like to thank you so very much for all you did on Olivia's wedding day. From the moment you entered my home your professionalism and style put the bride and six bridesmaids at ease. Olivia's hair through to all the six bridesmaids looked fabulous and from 8am till midnight not a hair out of place. I would recommend you highly to any bridal group seeking a talented hairdresser for their special day.

Krystle did my hair for my wedding on 24th April 2009. She also did my mum, matron-of-honour, bridesmaid and flower girl. Right from my hair trial through to the wedding Krystle was amazing. She coloured my hair the perfect colour for the look I wanted and has continued to be my hairdresser since the wedding. When I first met with Krystle for a trial I told her that I wanted curls. I have incredibly fine hair and curls never hold but Krystle didn't even bat an eyelid!! She gave me beautiful romantic curls that held more than twelve hours until I went to bed. I've had curls in the past from hairdressers that fall out before I've even left the salon. I cannot express how ecstatic I am that she gave me the look I so wanted and got it to hold for so long. Krystle's personality is so laid back and easy going and she helped to relax everyone on the day. She always goes above and beyond the call of duty even bringing beautiful pearl hair clips for the flower girl on the day which I had forgotten to do and supplying handbag sized hair spray. I would not recommend anyone other than Krystle to work her magic for your special day, she works really fast and the end result is faultless. Thanks Krystle for helping make my day so stress free and for being a great friend

Krystle I would like to thank you and Bonnie so much. You both made us look amazing. We felt just beautiful with hair and makeup that lasted all day and the next, we had such a fantastic day and everyone commented on how stunning we looked we owe it to you both thank you I would recommend you both to any future brides.

Bonnie, Thank you for making me feel so special I never wear makeup and I loved the look you created me you listened to what I did and didn't want and came up with the perfect end result I loved my hair too, mum had never worn makeup and since she had gone and bought some that how many comments she got thank you again Bonnie.
