Florida Hair and Makeup Trials
Is a bridal makeup and hair trial run really necessary? On one of the biggest days of your life, it’s important to try to avoid any hiccups that may occur and make sure that the day goes smoothly. You wouldn’t get married without a rehearsal or try your dress on only once, and it should be the same for your hair and makeup.
The trial not only gives us the opportunity for us to meet in person and build a relationship. It allows us to discuss the looks you like and try them out. Often this results in a look that’s actually different from the initial picture but is something that works for you. Everyone has a different interpretation of the idea of the inspirational pictures they bring. Having to figure out what works for you the morning of your wedding day isn’t really what you want to be doing. In having a trial, you can literally sit back and really enjoy your wedding morning with your bridal party. Confident that we will your makeup and hair exactly as you loved at the trial!

frequently asked questions
Q. Do you require a trial run?
A. Yes. Doing a trial run will help ensure that you are happy with your makeup/hair look before the big day. You don't want to have to worry about that on the day of your wedding. Having your trial run behind you, you can sit back and relax on your wedding day knowing that you love the look that you chose.
Q. Where and when will the trial take place?
A. To your location of choice on either Sundays, Mondays & Fridays. In the South Florida area, we currently offer only on-location trials.
Q. What if I want to do a trial run to decide if I want to book your services?
A. You are more than welcome to book a trial run to decide if you want to book our services. Most people know just by looking at our work and past reviews that they want to book us. If you are still unsure we can definitely book your trial run beforehand. Just remember that scheduling or doing a trial run does not secure your date. If someone else calls and is ready to book before your trial run your date might get taken. Most of the time this isn't an issue but just want you to be aware that it has happened in some cases.
Q. When should I schedule a trial run for my wedding?
A. Most brides like to come three to four months before but that is totally up to you. Most want to do it then because they are more certain of the look you are wanting and less likely to change your look or colors. On the other hand, we do have some others that want to come right away because they want to have a trial before booking and don’t want their day to be booked if they wait too close to the wedding day.
Q. What is included in the trial run?
A. You can expect that your trial run/consultation will last 60-75 mins (makeup only, if getting hair trial too it will also be an additional 60-90 mins). First, we will discuss all the details of your wedding – dresses, flowers, theme, etc. We will also discuss what makeup, if any, you wear on a normal basis. We will go over your ideas and what looks you were envisioning for your wedding day. We will look over any pictures that you have brought with you. Once you have decided, we will start with the makeup application and tweak anything we need to. If your mother or bridesmaids would like a trial run as well, we can do it at the same appointment or schedule it when it is convenient for them. We want you to be 100% happy with your look and we will make that happen.
Q. How should I prep my face and hair for the trial?
A. For makeup please arrive with NO residue on your face. If you do you will be asked to wash your face or take off makeup with makeup wipes. Please arrive with your hair blow-dried for the best results, especially if you have curly hair. DO NOT USE A FLAT IRON ONLY BLOW DRY to straighten. If you use a flat iron you run the risk of it not holding the curl.
Q. What should I bring to my trial?
A. For a makeup trial just bring inspirational photos. For hair bring inspirational photos, a veil, and any hair accessories you have. Once you schedule your trial appointment we will send you a confirmation on how to prep for the trial!
Q. How do I book a trial?
A. Please fill out our CONTACT FORM first so we are able to get as many details of what you are needing for your wedding day. After our Beauty Coordinator will contact you to coordinate a date that works best for you!
