Meet Rue Garande of Shades of Beauty Essex...

What beauty looks would you suggest for winter?
My absolute favourite look for this season is the classic Hollywood waves hair do with red lips. I also like playing around with highlighters and shimmers for brides who want a well put together natural dewy look.

How can you keep skin and hair looking its best in the colder months?
It's important to sufficiently exfoliate, use a face mask and moisturise at least once a day – I recommend Clinique Moisture Surge.

Hair tends to be drier and more brittle in colder months, so book in for regular cuts and conditioning treatments. Protective styling is recommended for clients with afro textures; keeping hair in braids and cornrows during colder months prevents unnecessary breakage.

How do you choose the right beauty expert for your big day?
Find someone who is going to help you feel calm and prepared for your wedding. In other words, you must have rapport with your stylist – good chemistry goes a long way!
