REPOST How Do I find hair and make up for my wedding



Brides: How do you find hair and make up for your wedding Part:1



So you’re going to the chapel and you’re going to get married…but who’s doing your makeup and hair for that special day!!! 

.So many times brides run into the dilemma  that their regular hairstylist does not come on location and they feel their only options for makeup is the local mall cosmetic counter.

Not at all the case, there are many bridal salons that specialize in making that special day run smoothly and come to you so that you nor your bridal party have to stress about the hustle and bustle of a busy salon on a weekend morning.






When you identify a mobile bridal salon what do you do next?   


It’s important to make sure that the company and individual is a good fit for you.  Determine what your style and vision is for your special day.  Collect pictures and information and schedule a consultation.  A consultation is generally complimentary; it is a time to sit with the artist and get a feel for them.  To take a look at their portfolio and get feedback on the vision that you have verses the reality of what you are working with.

If you are not comfortable during your consultation then don’t feel pressured to book or purse services with the individual or company.  This is the most important day of your life; its imperative that you have a vibe and comfort level with your artist or stylist.

For destination brides consultations can be done over the phone or by email.

After you have completed your consultation and you feel comfortable; you may want to have a trial run.  A trial run typically cost but that fee is nominal in comparison the peace of mind you will get after you have nailed down your bridal hair and make up look.

What should you expect from your trial??  That is our next blog…stay tuned.

Until next time Lena G
