Venezuela Fury’s wedding hairdresser has opened up about working with the family
A hairdresser who styled Venezuela Fury for her extravagant wedding has spoken fondly of the family, calling them “absolutely lovely” and “down to earth”.
Lynsey Austin, who runs LA Salon in Wrexham, was brought in just weeks before the ceremony after being requested to produce the elaborate finger-wave hairstyle desired by Tyson Fury‘s daughter for her special day.
The teenager wed Noah Price in a ceremony on the Isle of Man, with photographs from the nuptials garnering significant attention across social media. Discussing her involvement, Lynsey said collaborating with the Fury family was an overwhelmingly positive experience.

She told the BBC: “The Fury family were absolutely lovely. They were so down to earth. It was just like going to meet a friend. They were brilliant.”
Lynsey disclosed she initially got a telephone call from a Chester-based beauty firm about two weeks before the wedding, enquiring whether she could replicate the vintage hairstyle Venezuela had envisaged. Following a demonstration of her capabilities, she was asked to meet the family and landed the job.
Despite approaching two decades in the profession and past celebrity bookings, Lynsey said working with Venezuela was the most significant assignment of her career.
She said: “I’ve had one or two celebrity clients before, but this was definitely the main person I’ve ever done.”
The wedding demanded an enormous dedication from the Wrexham-based stylist, who worked deep into the night preparing the bride’s hair before returning in the early hours to put the finishing touches to the look ahead of the ceremony.
“I was literally running on an hour and a half of sleep, but the adrenaline of the day keeps you going,” she said.
Although she was not present at the ceremony itself, Lynsey later watched footage online and admitted she was moved by the finished result. She said: “I felt like I was going to cry because she just looked so stunning.”
The wedding sparked considerable interest, with Lynsey’s own posts from the occasion drawing millions of views. She revealed the exposure had already made a significant difference to her business, prompting a wave of new enquiries and bookings.
Venezuela, 16, wed Price at the Victorian Royal Chapel of St John’s on the Isle of Man. While the minimum age for marriage in England and Wales was raised to 18 in 2023, marriage remains legally permitted at 16 on the Isle of Man with parental consent.
