FAQs
What deposit do you require?
I require a £50 deposit in order to confirm the booking and reserve your date.
Where/when do the trials take place?
I'm mobile and can travel to your home (or another location) for your trial.
How long does a trial take?
Trials usually last around 2-3 hours. We will sit down and have a chat about your theme, what look you want and go through your ideas. We will then do your makeup and style your hair into your chosen hairstyle.
Do I need to bring anything for the trial?
Ideally wear a top that is the same colour as your wedding dress. Have any accessories you’d like to wear on the day. I can also provide hair accessories to help you get a feel for what you like. Finally wash and dry your hair the night before.
What additional services do your offer?
I offer a mobile service meaning you are able to get ready in the comfort of your own home/venue.
How long do you need on the wedding day?
I cater for smaller parties so Hair and makeup for up to 4 people. Hair or makeup up to 8 people.
