Hair and Makeup

It is best not to wash your hair the day of the service.  It is preferred to have the hair washed 1 day beforeException: flat ironed hair can not be curled.  If you have flat ironed your hair since your last wash and intend the artist to curl your hair you will need to rewash your hair and style without flat ironing before your consultation.  Your hair should not be wet when the artist arrives.  This will be treated as tardiness and overtime charges will apply.   Please have pictures of sample hairstyles ready for your artist.

Hair accessories such as decorative combs, clips or flowers etc., must be provided by the client and should be available for the artist at the scheduled appointment time.
Your face should be freshly washed and free of all makeup when the artist arrives.   We do not have sample lipstick for you to take with you, the client should provide the artist with the desired lipstick to be applied for the bridal session and/or wedding day.  The artist will provide a suggested color of lipstick at the consultation so the client can better select a color for the wedding day and bridal session.

False eyelash application is included with you makeup service.

Hair services for attendants and anyone other than bride

Please note that the fee for these services is at a reduced rate from the bride and due to time constraints our artists are able to do basic updo’s for anyone other than the bride.  Detailed updo’s require longer services and a higher fee.  If an attendant or someone other than the bride would prefer a more detailed hair style an additional fee will apply for these services and additional time will be needed.    Please contact our office in advance to schedule these services.

Artist

Scheduling conflicts occasionally result in an alternate artist performing services.      

Parking and Travel Fees

The client is responsible for parking fees incurred by the artist.   Parking fees can be paid in advance or on the day to the artist directly.  

The client will be charged a travel fee of $2.00 per mile round trip for services outside of Loop 1604.  Travel fee is applied per artist.
