Client acknowledges that we strive for lasting hair &/or makeup. Heat, humidity, wind rain & tears can impact the longevity of hair &/or makeup. Client understands that textured, pocked or flaking skin cannot be perfected/ covered with MU. We are not responsible for allergic reactions.

If receiving makeup, client agrees to prepare skin with a daily routine of cleansing, toning, exfoliation and moisturizing before the session takes place. Skin condition at the trial may affect outcome of makeup application. Company is not responsible for discrepancies in makeup application if skin is not prepped beforehand.

Hair & makeup artistry is highly subjective and personal in nature. Inspiration photos — particularly heavily edited, filtered, or AI-generated images — may not always translate identically on every individual due to differences in facial features, skin texture, skin tone, hair type, density, length, color, natural movement, lighting, and personal perception of beauty.

If individual is dissatisfied with hair and/or makeup, it is her responsibility to inform artist(s) while they are present in ready room and still unpacked so artist can fix. Refunds won't be given after the fact and second trials will be charged full price plus travel.

The company and your team are not responsible for delays caused by circumstances beyond our control. If an artist is required to wait more than 20 minutes past the scheduled start and/or end time, a $25 per half hour, per artist fee will apply and be invoiced after the event.

Client understands wet hair will not be serviced unless approved. If artist does blow dry hair, an additional fee will be charged. Client also understands that clip-in extensions must be approved/paid for beforehand.

Our stylists are incredibly talented, but not magicians! Remember, social media photos are typically of models and are heavily edited, photoshopped and also employ false lighting to increase facial glow, shimmer and hair dimension. NOWADAYS THEY ARE COMPLETELY AI GENERATED!

Hair styles with extra thickness or length often involve extensions. Consider your hair type and skin tone when choosing a style. For example, if you are brunette, only send makeup and hair photos of women with your coloring. If you have shoulder-length hair, do not choose hair inspiration with a model hair that is past the bra line. Also, make sure you choose photos that are close in age as well.

Also, remember your trial is the time to work everything out for your chosen wedding day look! Don't be timid in expressing concerns or dissatisfaction to your artists. If you chose a look that once finished, you simply do not like it on YOU, that is not the fault of the artist and should be addressed right then and there. THEY ARE THERE TO MAKE SURE YOU 100% LOVE YOUR LOOK SO PLEASE SPEAK UP!

Embrace your natural beauty, and trust our artists to enhance your unique features authentically. Let's make your dream look a reality!

If at your home, if possible, we recommend that very young children and pets are not present. Remember --this is your time to get pampered!

Artists should not be asked to go up or down more than one floor or flight of stairs or work outdoors. Please cover carpet and valuable tables if necessary to avoid damage.

We come to you!

Please be realistic!

Share your wedding day inspiration!

Makeup Prep

Our artists specialize in elegant, timeless soft to high-glam bridal makeup.

Please mention any product allergies you may have. Feel free to wear makeup or come with a clean, moisturized face. Practice good skin prep at least two weeks prior to your trial and add exfoliation and moisturizer to your weekly routine.

Please mention if you'd like to try airbrush makeup prior to your session.

High-Glam

Lashes are included with all bridal trials.

Brows should be groomed/waxed/tweezed. Artist can pluck a few hairs, but full brow grooming is not provided.

Facials and Botox should be done a minimum of two weeks prior to trial. Fillers, one month.

Hair Prep

Hollywood Glam Waves or Retro Styles require more time, talent. Please request this look ahead of your preview as you may also need to purchase clip-in extensions to get this on-trend look. See photo example.

For 3-D Hollywood waves, the fee is $100 for the trial and $100 for the wedding day plus $50 per application if using clip-in extensions.

Bring your hair accessories and veil if you have them. If not, your stylist will be happy to discuss what options are best.

Hair should be clean and DRY and do not flat iron, as it's harder to curl and put into an up-do or down do. Feel free to use product but nothing that weighs hair down. If you are thinking of cutting your hair before the trial, please discuss with owner before making that decision as most tyles require hair to be as long as possible. Have your hair colored/highlighted as it will

be for the wedding.

A Few More things . . .

Typically, a hair and makeup preview session takes about 2 hours. Hair or makeup only about 1 hour. NOTE: IF TRIAL GOES BEYOND THE REASONABLE AND ALLOTTED TIME, A CHARGE OF $25 PER HALF HOUR WILL BE CHARGED FOR OVERTIME.

We are more than happy to give you more than one hair or makeup look. Just let us know ahead of your preview. This may take extra time and an additional fee.

What to wear . . .

We love animals! But for the safety and sanitary well-being of everyone, animals should be kept away from the ready area if at all possible.

Next Steps

Try to wear a top that is a similar color and cut off the top of your wedding dress. Avoid anything button down or that you have to pull over your head.

Dana, the owner, will reach out 24-48 hours after your preview to see how everything went!

Gratuity

Artists love a tip for a great job! They take cash and Venmo. Also inquire if the total gratuity will be added to your contract.
