Perfect wedding day hair and makeup By: The Wedding Day Expert
With millions of dollars spent each year on weddings, it amazes me that when it comes to cutting corners for that perfect day, the hair and make up is the first to go. If you put any thought about it, your hair and make up are the most important access
So why would you compromise the way you look to save a few bucks?
The pictures from your wedding day last forever! Can you imagine opening up your wedding album twenty-five years later, and seeing less than perfect hair and makeup?
As a professional hair stylist and make up artist, I advise all future brides to be as careful choosing your stylist as you are choosing your florist. Find stylists that are well versed in bridal and event styling. All stylists are not suited to do this kind of work. Be sure to check with a wedding consultant or bridal magazine for the professionals in your particular area. |

Please do not be afraid of hurting your regular stylists feelings. Sometimes, they cannot do bridal work but don't know how to tell you. Be up front. Come right out and ask them if they do event styling. Any good stylist will be honest and tell you yes or no. If they do, have a trial run. If they don't, there are plenty of us out there that do. Speaking of trial runs, that is as important as the actual day. Practice makes perfect! You do not want to wait until your wedding day to iron out all the kinks.
Now lets talk about makeup .I feel the biggest issue we have as stylists is finding the correct make to enhance and complement a brides coloring, as well as keeping a healthy, dewy glow all while insuring she looks natural. A major challenge beyond making sure that the application looks good in day light is applying the makeup so that it does not look as if the bride is wearing a mask. |
