This morning I get to introduce you to Marry Me Ink’s latest advertiser – Black Cherry Wedding Hair & Beauty. I really love looking through Kristy’s work!

My name is Kristy, and I own Black Cherry Hair and Beauty. I specialise in alternative hair and make up and love all things vintage, zombie or cheesecake related.

I live in Kent with my gorgeous wife, our cheeky baby, Atticus, and a menagerie of crazy animals: Daisy (the dog), Ducky (the cat) and Petri (the lizard). Ok, so I have a thing for ‘Land Before Time’…

After moving from South Africa in 2003 and studying NVQ 2 & 3 hairdressing, I found I had a natural flare for ‘hair up’ and with the help of some awesome friends and family, I have built Black Cherry from the ground up. I love creating unique styles, be it for a wedding or photo shoot and anything from vintage to steampunk, goth to boho or rockabilly to punk. Back combing, hairspray, hairpieces and anything imaginative? That’s me, that is. Using hair pieces and structures to make bold statement hair is my ‘thing’. My next wedding this year is pirate themed – a bride with dreadlocks and a ship fascinator! Can’t wait.
