Additional Information
What is a trial and how far in advance should I book?
A trial is an opportunity to sit down with your artist and discuss your hair and makeup requests. It includes:
- A consultation about your makeup and/or hair – essentially your likes and dislikes
- A makeup application (includes false lash application)
- Hair service with veil or headpiece
This could be done at your discretion, however I recommend at least three months before your wedding. This allows time assess the condition of your skin and eyebrows and perhaps suggest a skincare regime to help your skin be in top condition for your wedding.
Will my makeup last all day?
With the exceptional use of professional and luxury brands your makeup is guaranteed to last all day and night! I have ensured to have makeup that is sweat – water and tear proof yet still providing a well-hydrated, natural and flawless look.
How long will the makeup/hair application take during the trial?
The length of a trial is 1-2 hours for either hair or makeup, 2-3 hours for both hair and makeup. For a successful trial, it will be very helpful if you have a clear vision of what look you would like to achieve. Please bring some photos of makeup and hair ideas with you to the trial.
What kind of set up do you need on my special day?
Thanks for asking!
Facing a window is perfect as natural light is best. A sizeable table for my tools and a bar height stool/chair is ideal for makeup application. A regular size chair is best for hair.
How should I and my wedding party prepare for the wedding day?
For makeup, that means having a clean, exfoliated and moisturized face.
Your wedding hair and makeup will last all day & night, but it is best to bring and carry with you a lip gloss or lipstick.
Hair must be cleaned and dried, it is ideal to work with hair washed the night/day before.
Please have it product free (the only exception is any de-frizz products for curly hair as long as they don't make the hair crunchy) and dry.
If your hair is on the fine side and it tends to get greasy easily, please have it washed and dried that day. If your hair is coarser or drier, washing it the day before is fine.
Please wear a button down top, easier for changing without ruining hair and makeup.
People should arrive 15 minutes before their scheduled time, to settle in, do last minute errands, washroom break etc.
What is included in the Bridal makeup application?
A touch up kit will be provided for the bride on the day of her weeding. Additional touch-up kits are available for purchase for the bridal party.
How Big of a group can I handle?
Working alone, I can comfortably accommodate group sizes up to 6 (assuming we have sufficient get-ready time). For groups of 7+ or when timing is tight, a second well experienced artist will be brought along (pending availability).
Do you offer second artists?
Depending on the number of services and your getting ready timeline, a second artist may be required. Second artists are based on availability and currently only available for groups of 7 or higher. Extra Artist fees will apply.
What about Wedding Hair?
I personally can do hair as well and if your services falls withing the group of up to 6, I can do both hair and makeup. For the larger wedding parties, I can reach out to talented hairstylists who offer beautiful, classic hair for the bride and wedding party.
Do you have minimum requirements?
There is a booking minimum of 6 services during weekends from June-October. Smaller bookings may be accepted if scheduling permits. At other times of the year I will accept smaller groups.
Travel fees, parking fees, extra artist fees, early morning fees do not count towards this minimum.
Depending on your timeline, a second artist may be required for groups of 7 and over. Extra Fees will apply.
