When should my preview appointment take place?
Ideally we like to carry out makeup and hair previews 2- 3 months before your wedding day during the daytime Monday to Friday as we're usually fully booked with weddings at weekends. However, we will do our best to fit you in around this if you are only available during evenings or weekends. We usually contact Brides at the beginning of the year to book this in!
do you offer joint appointments?
Yes, we highly recommend this so you have a good idea of both how your hair and makeup will look on your wedding day.
If we're unable to do a joint appointment we'll arrange 2 seperate appointments on the same day.
Please allow up to 1 .5 hour for a joint hair and makeup preview.
Some brides also try to arrange their hair and makeup preview on the same day as their wedding dress fitting so that they can see how the overall look will all come together.

Can I bring my maid of honour or mum with me?
Yes we encourage you to book in your Maid of Honour or Mum too! If they'd just like to watch, please confirm this with us beforehand as sometimes we're limited on space and would hate to leave Mum out in the cold!
What if we run out of time?
We're mindful of time as often book Preview Appointments back to back so we ask you to provide us with as much information as possible on your booking form so that we can spend the majority of time doing the 'hands on' practical bit.
If at the end of your appointment you'd like to try out more ideas we can always look to book in a second appointment.
Our current price for this is £60 - £65 per service.

Should I wash my hair beforehand?
It's best to come to your appointment with "day old" hair so we recommend you wash your hair the day or evening before as this makes it easier to hold your style.
Freshly cleansed and moisturised skin works best for us too but you are welcome to come with makeup already applied if you feel more comfortable. It's also a good idea to do a gentle exfoliation the day beforehand so that we have a nice smooth canvas to work with!

what if i'm not local to have a preview?
We are used to helping brides who live out of the area so don't worry we can arrange your wedding hair and makeup consultation via phone, FaceTime or WhatsApp video call instead. We encourage you to provide us with as much detail and photo ideas as well before the call.
I like to dance! will my makeup + hair stay put?
A great skincare and hair routine helps and we can offer you specialist advice at your preview appointment to ensure it all stays put.
We always use the strongest of hairsprays and have plenty of pins for your hair.
For your makeup we'll select the correct moisturiser for your skin type, a suitable primer, foundation and set this all with a light powder as well as a setting spray. If you decide that you'd like a top up or different look for the evening we can return to your wedding venue and carry out a restyle or we can always give you some tips on how to transform your look from day to night.
You can also purchase additional products recommended by us to touch up your makeup for later on in the day.
