​

I NEED HAIR AND MAKEUP SERVICES FOR ME AND 2 OF MY BRIDESMAIDS, WOULD YOU BE ABLE TO SERVICE US ALL IN YOUR OWN?

It will all depend on the timeframe that you and your bridal group will have to be ready.

When there is a large number of services requested and the timeframe available for me to complete all services is limited, an additional mua/stylist will be necessary. By having additional muas/stylists, you will be ensuring that you and your bridal group will receive quality service and a stress-free experience. Please take a look at the next table to find out if you may need additional muas/stylists for your bridal group.

DO I HAVE TO PAY A RETAINER TO SECURE THE APPOINTMENT?

Yes, to secure your appointment it is required to pay a non-refundable and non-transferable retainer, per date (35% of the total) and sign a contract.

The retainer payment counts toward the total cost of services.

***BOOKINGS MADE LESS THAN 7 DAYS AWAY MUST BE PAID IN FULL***

Booking the date of your event when booking the preview (trial) date is highly recommended.

​

I REQUESTED AN APPOINTMENT FOR MY SPECIAL EVENT BUT I NEVER RECEIVED A CONFIRMATION TEXT OR EMAIL...

WHY?

Due to the limited number of appointments I offer through the year, dates/times are unable to be secured based on an inquiry or preview alone.

Services are booked on a first come, first secured basis.

A signed agreement and a paid retainer are required to secure a date/time. 

​

I OPTED TO RECEIVE SERVICES AT YOUR LOCATION BUT I DON’T WANT TO GO ALONE...

CAN I TAKE SOMEONE ELSE WITH ME TO MY APPOINTMENT?  

Yes, only one person is allowed to come with you to the appointment since my workspace is very reduced.      

​

WHY DO YOU HIGHLY RECOMMEND A HAIR/MAKEUP PREVIEW (trial)?

During the hair/makeup preview we will discuss different options and I’ll work step by step with you until we achieve the look you envisioned for your very special day. Also, I highly recommend a hair/makeup preview to rule out any allergic reactions. Although the products I use are of the best quality, there is always the possibility of developing an allergic reaction, so a preview is a great opportunity to find out about this and thus avoid any unexpected surprises on your very special day.

 

WHAT MAKEUP BRANDS DO YOU USE?

I carry both professional and high-end brands of makeup with an extensive variety of shades and formulas in order to cater to my different client’s needs.

​

CAN YOU USE MY PERSONAL COSMETIC PRODUCTS TO DO MY MAKEUP?

I can definitely use your makeup products if you wish so, but the result of the makeup application may not be the one expected since I may not be familiar with some of your products.

​

WILL MY MAKEUP STAY INTACT ALL DAY?

I use long lasting products to apply the makeup, normally the makeup lasts between 6-8 hours depending on the location, time of day and weather in which your event will take place, however I cannot guarantee that the makeup will remain intact until the time of your event since each skin type is different.

 

DO YOU CHARGE EXTRA FOR CLIP-ON HAIR EXTENSION APPLICATION?

Yes, there is an additional charge if you request hair extensions to be applied.

This has to be requested at least 3 days in advance.

 

DO YOU PROVIDE THE HAIR EXTENSIONS?

I do offer hair extensions for sale, but the client can provide their own extensions if they wish.

Hair extensions have to be of natural human hair, not synthetic or blend.

 

ARE HOLLYWOOD WAVES/VINTAGE WAVES THE SAME PRICE AS BASIC CURLING?

No, Hollywood waves/Vintage waves have a different price.

 

WHAT IF I DON'T HAVE TIME TO DRY MY HAIR BEFORE MY STYLING APPOINTMENT, WILL YOU BLOW DRY MY HAIR?

I will gladly blow dry your hair if your hair is wet or damp.

 This will incur on an additional charge.

 

HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE YOU TO DO MY HAIR AND MAKEUP?

*These are just approximate time estimates*

The time a service will take depends on the makeup look and hairstyle you are going for and the type of service you will be receiving.
