Why Choose Cutting Club Salon For Your Race Day Hair?

Race day styling is about so much more than simply curling your hair. It's about creating a complete look that complements your outfit and gives you the confidence to enjoy your day in style.

Our experienced team take the time to understand your outfit, hat or fascinator, face shape, hair type and texture, and the look you're hoping to achieve. Whether you're aiming for timeless elegance or modern glamour, we'll recommend a hairstyle that feels comfortable, photographs beautifully and lasts from your first glass of fizz through to the final race.

Planning to wear a fascinator, statement hat or decorative hair brooch? No problem! We regularly create hairstyles designed to showcase accessories beautifully while ensuring they're secure and comfortable enough to wear all day.

Why not complete your race day look with a fresh hair colour before your event? Whether you're dreaming of sun-kissed highlights, a seamless balayage, a rich glossy brunette or a vibrant colour refresh, our colour specialists can help you achieve healthy-looking, head-turning hair that's perfect for race day photographs.

If it's been a while since your last appointment, we'd also recommend booking a haircut before the big day. Removing dry or split ends will leave your hair looking healthier, shinier and easier to style, helping your chosen hairstyle hold its shape while giving your locks a beautiful glossy finish.

The Top 3 Most Requested Ladies Day Hairstyles

Braids, Buns & Beautiful Ponytails

Braided hairstyles continue to be hugely popular for Ladies Day.

Our stylists can create:

• textured ponytails
• fishtail braids
• Dutch braids
• French braids
• twisted updos
• relaxed boho buns
• intricate plaited hairstyles

These styles add detail and interest while keeping your hair secure throughout the day.

Soft Glam Waves

One of our most requested race day looks.

Using professional styling tools, we'll create polished, glossy waves that hold their shape while still looking soft and effortless.

This versatile style looks beautiful:

• worn down
• half up, half down
• with one side tucked behind the ear
• with a deep side parting for added glamour
• paired with fascinators or statement clips

Soft waves suit almost every hair length and remain a favourite for racegoers wanting a sophisticated yet relaxed finish.

The Elegant Low Bun (Chignon)

Nothing says classic elegance quite like a beautifully styled low bun.

Whether sleek and smooth or softly textured, a chignon sits neatly at the nape of the neck, making it the ideal choice if you're wearing a larger hat or fascinator.

This timeless hairstyle is:

• sophisticated
• practical
• weather-friendly
• comfortable to wear all day
• perfect for formal race events
