- <strong><a href="http://www.parlorsalon.ca/" target="_blank">Robin Achterberg</a> in Victoria, British Columbia</strong>.<br /> <br /> A three-time semi-finalist for Canadian Hairstylist of the Year and owner of Parlor Salon, Robin Achterberg says one of the things she loves most about working with brides is that it’s a chance for her to be extra-creative and form a piece of art. “It’s not often you have the occasion to dress hair in such a beautiful way,’ Achterberg shares. “I tend to work with brides who are looking for a romantic and soft look. Beautiful waves and looks with a sense of natural beauty are definitely my thing.” We love that Robin takes a less is more approach to wedding hairstyles—she believes hair should be an accent and not a focal point of a bride’s look. “Gorgeous wedding hair is the result of you listening, collaborating and giving the bride what she asked for.”<br /> <br /> <i>Photography courtesy of <a href="http://tuesdayphotography.ca/" target="_blank">Tuesday Photography</a> as seen in <a href="http://www.weddingbells.ca/real-weddings/a-peacock-themed-wedding-in-victoria-british-columbia/" target="_blank">this real wedding</a>.</i><br />
