Any cancellation made within 7 days of the scheduled appointment time will result in full payment of the services scheduled. As we block out a large portion of time for any of our services we ask that you communicate any changes to your appointment at your earliest convenience. If you want to cancel your appointment, please email us right away.

If the appointment must be rescheduled, we will move the appointment to the date one time without a charge. Any new rates for the new date will apply. Once the appointment date has changed more than once, there will be another deposit of $100 required to hold the new date. The new rates will apply as well.

Our payments are processed via Square. The final payment must be made within 24 hours of your service to avoid a late fee of $25 per day the payment is late. We do not accept Venmo for payments, but you may use Venmo to tip your individual artist or reimburse parking. Cash may also be used to tip your artist or reimburse parking directly to the team.

We do not have a set date we need to know by, but we appreciate you letting us know as early as possible so we can schedule our team accordingly. We will always do our best to accommodate additional services requested, but there is a better chance we will be able to accommodate if you ask us sooner rather than later. We appreciate you letting us know ahead of time if you think your services may change, or if you anticipate some services will be removed or you will want to add more.

If you are from out of town or will not have time before your appointment to do a trial, that is okay! We do not require a trial. We ask for your inspiration photos and notes prior to the appointment so that we are prepared to create your look. We also have a detailed consultation process and ask questions along the way to make sure we are creating a look you will love. We are very open to feedback and happy to make changes as well, so let us know if you have anything you would like changed and we would be more than happy to make the adjustments.

Having a trial is a personal preference. We suggest a makeup trial for anyone who is not used to wearing makeup, is not sure what look they want, or has had a previous bad experience with having their makeup done. There are so many details to a makeup look, so getting an idea of the different options as far as colors, tones, coverage and how it all works on your skin is always beneficial. We suggest a hair trial for anyone who is unsure of how they would like their hair or if your hair is challenging to style. For example, if your hair is fine and does not have a lot of volume or if it does not hold curl well and you want a curled look, it would be a good idea to have a trial to see how well your hair holds the curl. We love meeting our brides before the wedding day, and some of our clients choose to do a trial just to meet us and get a few thoughts cleared before the wedding day. If you are on the fence if you need one or not, then you probably should have a trial!

We recommend doing your trial as close to your appointment date as possible so you have more time to decide on your look, and we can better predict our team schedule so we can match your trial artist as your appointment artist. Typically 1-3 months prior to your wedding date is best. If you would like a trial, please let us know when you book. Though we recommend doing the trial 1-2 months prior to your date, you may email us to arrange your trial earlier than that time frame.

SERVICE & PRODUCTS

For a blowout, your hair should be freshly washed and wet when we arrive. For any style not paired with a blowout, your hair should be clean and 100% dry.

Clean skin with all makeup removed is the best canvas for our makeup artistry. You should also moisturize your face prior to our arrival.

Dress for comfort if you’ll be changing into event clothing. It is best to wear something that buttons so that it doesn’t need to go over your head to remove it.

All of our products are long lasting formulas and our application techniques are meant to help your makeup hold up throughout your wedding. We do however suggest to purchase a translucent powder or blotting papers to help as needed throughout your day. During your trial you can also request suggestions from your artist on if you need to prepare anything for touch ups. We provide a lip touch up for 1-2 applications after we complete hair and makeup.

In our opinion, hair extensions are a great idea! They can add that little extra to your desired hairstyle and increase volume or length, especially if you're thinking of going with a braid or feel like your hair doesn’t hold a curl well.

We recommend clip-in extensions of all human hair. Clip-in sets of 7 are best. We do not sell them personally or cut them on the day of, so be sure to visit your hair stylist prior to your appointment. Here are some of our favorite brands: The Hair Shop, Rapunzel of Sweden, Luxy.

The airbrush foundation is a very thin liquid foundation that will be applied with a spray gun; it is a contactless application. Because it’s so thin, it feels very light and is barely noticeable. The coverage varies from very light to full coverage depending on how many layers are applied; however, even a full coverage application still looks and feels light.

The regular foundation is a liquid that will be applied with a brush or a sponge. Depending on the desired level of coverage, we will choose the right brand for you. Our regular foundations also feel and look very light. If you're not sure what’s the right choice for you, you can always discuss with the artist on the day of and they can help choose the perfect foundation depending on your needs.

Please note, airbrush is +$25.

Yes, we have waterproof mascara 💦🫶

We often get asked if everything is waterproof…so thought it would be good to share.
Yes, absolutely when possible we use products that are made to resist tears, sweat, rain or a dip in the ocean/pool. If you are concerned about any area in particular or if you are prone to makeup not lasting well please let us know. We can give you personalized tips on how to touch up and choose the right products in your session to help your makeup last💄 (always dab, never wipe)
