It is understood that we strive for lasting hair & MU but cannot guarantee 100% waterproof MU. Heat, humidity, wind rain $ tears can impact the longevity of hair & MU. Client understands that textured, pocked or flaking skin cannot be perfected/ covered with MU. We are not responsible for allergic reactions.

If artist doesn't feel airbrush makeup will work for skin type, client understands switch will be made to traditional makeup for optimum satisfaction/coverage. No refunds for airbrush add-on fee will be made if charged.

Client understands that no wet hair will 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.

If individual is dissatisfied with hair or MU, 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.

But please be realistic!

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.

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!

We come to you!

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.

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.

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.

High-Glam

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

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.

Bring your hair accessories and veil if you have them. If not, your stylist will be happy to discuss what options are best. Check back with Dana to get some suggestions on where to purchase - WE SELL THEM! GO TO WWW.BEAUTIFULBRIDESHAIRANDMAKEUP.COM/SHOP

If you want to use extensions at your preview and they need to be trimmed, we are happy to do that for a fee of $25. Please let us know before preview so the stylist can be prepared with their sheers.

Glam Waves

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.

How long will it take?

Do you want more than one look?

Animals

A Few More things . . .

Typically, a hair and makeup preview session takes about 2-2 1/2 hours. Hair or makeup only about 1- 1/12 hours.

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.

IMPORTANT
