Preparing for your wedding makeup and hair is a big deal, right? As someone who’s been part of 100s of brides’ big days, I know how important it is to feel confident, beautiful, and CHILL. Let me walk you through the process of preparing for your wedding makeup and hair so you know exactly what to expect and how to prepare. Here’s my step-by-step guide, from our first consultation to the moment you say, “I do!”

1. The Initial Consultation

Everything starts with a chat—this is where we get to know each other! We’ll talk about your vision, your wedding style, and any makeup or hair inspiration you might have. Whether you’re going for a natural glow or a more glamorous look, I’ll help you figure out what will make you feel like the best version of yourself on your wedding day.

My Tip: Bring inspiration photos, your wedding theme details, and any questions you have about the process. The more I know, the better I can bring your vision to life!

2. The Trial Run

The trial session is one of my favorite parts of the process. It’s the chance to experiment and make sure everything is just right. During the trial, we’ll test out a few makeup and hair styles to see what works best for you.

  • For Makeup: We’ll play with different levels of glam, find the perfect foundation match, and make sure your makeup feels comfortable and lasts through a day of celebrations.
  • For Hair: Whether you want a sleek updo, flowing waves, or something in between, we’ll try out a few styles. And don’t worry, you’ll have plenty of time to see how each look holds up.

My Tip: If possible, bring your veil, headpieces, or any accessories you’re planning to wear. This helps us make sure everything fits perfectly with your overall look.

3. Skincare and Hair Prep

In the weeks leading up to your wedding, it’s all about preparation. Healthy skin and hair make a huge difference when it comes to creating a flawless bridal look.

  • Skincare: I always recommend starting a good skincare routine months in advance. We’ll make sure your skin is moisturized, exfoliated, and glowing. Avoid introducing any new products right before the big day to prevent breakouts or reactions.
  • Hair Care: Regular trims and deep conditioning treatments are key to keeping your hair healthy. Damaged hair can’t be magically fixed in a style and you don’t need extra long hair for an updo.If you’re coloring your hair, we’ll plan the final touch-up a week or two before the wedding so it’s fresh but not too new.

My Tip: If you’re considering a spray tan, I recommend scheduling it a couple of days before the wedding for a natural glow that complements your makeup. If you’re a spray tan newbie, schedule a trial spray tan a few weeks before.

4. Wedding Day Prep

On the big day, we’ll make sure you have plenty of time to get ready. I like to create a calm and relaxed atmosphere so you can enjoy the process. Here’s how we’ll get you wedding-ready:

  • Makeup: We’ll start with a clean, moisturized face and use long-lasting, waterproof products to keep your makeup looking fresh all day. I’ll focus on enhancing your natural beauty while making sure your look holds up in photos.
  • Hair: We’ll style your hair to perfection based on what we decided during the trial. Fresh, clean hair or a bit of texture (depending on the style) will help us achieve the best results.

My Tip: Keep a small touch-up kit handy, with essentials like your lip color, pressed powder, and hairpins. I’ll also help you put it together so you can stay flawless throughout the event.

5. Final Touches and Go Time!

Once your makeup and hair are done, I’ll make sure everything is picture-perfect before you step into your dress. We’ll check your look in different lighting to ensure it’s flawless in every shot. After any last-minute adjustments, you’ll be ready to make your grand entrance!

 I’m always so honored to be part of a bride’s special day, and I’ll be with you every step of your wedding makeup and hair to make sure you feel confident and radiant. This guide ensures that when the time comes, you’ll be fully prepared for a seamless beauty experience and can focus on what really matters—enjoying every moment!
