FAQ
A Hair & Makeup trial is a crucial step in a Bride's wedding preparation journey, ensuring she feels confident and radiant on her special day and in turn me as your stylist am confident with the styles we've chosen for your special day. This personalised session allows us both to collaborate and experiment on the hair & makeup looks you envision. It provides an opportunity to fine-tune details, from makeup colours to hairstyle tweaks, ensuring everything compliments your dress and overall aesthetic. Additionally, a trial reduces the risk of last-minute surprises, allowing every Bride to envision the complete look well ahead of the big day. Overall, a hair & makeup trial not only enhances the Bride's piece of mind but also contributes to a seamless and joyful wedding experience.
This varies depending on aspects of the morning of, however in general we allow 1 hour per person per service.
I do like to allow up to 1.5hours per service for the bride however as this gives the bride more time to relax and enjoy the 'getting ready' process.
Should bridal party members have extra long or thick hair though, this will be factored into the wedding day HMU schedule so that we have everyone ready in time to get dressed.

Get Expert Advicei got a bad haircut do i need extensions
Makeup by Mir
Hi there, I'm sorry of this happened to you.
if your haircut is close to your wedding day and it is now too short or has been thinned out too much and your are wanting an out style I would recommend some clip in extensions to fix the fullness and length issue.
if you are wanting an upstyle and you can still pull your hair up into a ponytail you won't need extensions necessarily depending on how full you want the upstyle.
without seeing your haircut and the hairstyle you desire makes it hard to give you exact advice however I would stick to my above recommendation in general.
Hope this helps.
red lipstick
is it risky for sweaty and the kiss
Makeup by Mir
I would suggest if you are definitely wanting to wear a red lipstick to find a long wear or lip stain that won't rub off on your husband during 'the kiss'. This way your lipstick will also withstand humidity and heat and you'll be less likely to sweat it off or transfer onto your gown or anyone else.
Red lipstick is a daring colour to wear for your wedding, so choose it wisely and make sure it's applied and dried well before you go anywhere near your gown.
Should I wash my hair on my wedding morning?
Makeup by Mir
Always wash your hair the day/night before your wedding day, this includes shampooing twice and only conditioning from the mid length to ends to avoid oily roots. Blow drying your hair as smooth as possible so your hairstylist isn't wasting time drying your hair when she can be styling in that time.
If you have curly hair, this can be done the morning of whilst applying your usual curl products and either allowing to dry naturally or using a diffuser hairdryer to eliminate frizz.
