What to expect

Look amazing on your big day. At The Refinery Hair Lounge, we offer hair and makeup for weddings, proms, galas, photoshoots, and more. As a result, your style will last from the first photo to the last dance.

We create updos, waves, braids, and textured styles. Makeup ranges from soft and glowing to bold and glam—all done with pro methods that look great in photos and hold through hours of fun.

First, each service starts with a chat about your timeline, outfit, and vision. For weddings, we do group styling with flexible timing. Plus, trials help you lock in your look before the day.

We use pro products that hold up through humidity, tears, and dancing. In addition, our Middletown salon has space for groups. So relax with your people while we handle the details.

The Refinery has salons in Middletown and Shelbyville, KY, serving Louisville, Shelby County, and nearby communities. So book your event styling and feel confident from every angle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Updated

Packages vary but often include styling and makeup fit to your event. For example, weddings may add a trial, false lashes, touch-up kits, and on-location visits. Meanwhile, prom or gala packages include hair and makeup timed to your schedule. Add-ons include airbrush makeup, extensions, and braided updos. So tell us your event, how many need services, and your timeline. We'll build a package that fits.
For weddings: 6-12 months out, or at least 4-6 months because peak season (March–May) fills fast. For prom: 4-6 weeks ahead since prom weekends get packed. For other events: 2-4 weeks is usually fine, but earlier is safer.
Many of our stylists do on-location services. They'll come to your hotel, venue, or home. However, this adds a travel fee based on distance. Just ask when booking. If it's not available or fits your budget, come to our Middletown salon—we have space for groups.
A trial is a test run weeks before your event. You meet with your stylist, try looks, see how they photo, and tweak until it's right. In contrast, day-of is the real thing and it's faster because we already know what you want. As a result, trials help you feel confident on the big day.
For the bride: 2-3 hours for hair and makeup. For each bridesmaid: about 45 minutes per service. A party of 6 bridesmaids plus moms could take 4-6+ hours with one stylist. However, hiring extra stylists cuts time. Start 4-5 hours before the ceremony.
First, bring inspo photos, pics of your dress and veil, and any hair clips or jewelry. Also wear a top in a similar color to your outfit. Come with clean hair and a clean, moisturized face. Put contacts in first. Finally, bring one trusted person for input—avoid a crowd.
Yes! We do bridal parties and large groups for weddings, prom, and more. In fact, we coordinate multiple stylists to work at once so everyone's ready on time. Just tell us how many people, what they need, and when you need to be done. Then we'll build a schedule.
