TRIAL QUESTIONS

​

How soon should I book my consultation and trial run?

While some brides book six months or more in advance, we suggest you book your consultation and trial run no later than one to two months before your wedding day. All trials booked will require a $250 non-refundable deposit.  This deposit will go toward your final contract fees.

​

Will the stylist who does my trial be the stylist who does my wedding day?

In most instances the stylist who completes your trial will also be the stylist on the day of your wedding. However, in case of emergencies or other conflicts, you may receive a different stylist. We take lots of photos and careful notes and records of your hair and makeup look so the stylist can replicate the look completed during your trial in the case of a stylist switch. Keep in the mind that we only replace your stylist under extreme circumstances.

​

What is the booking process?

In order to secure your date and stylists we require a deposit for your services. Along with the deposit, you will be asked to sign a contract. The contract protects you, the bride, to ensure that we will be on-location on the morning of your wedding. All final contract payments are due by 7 days of your wedding date.

 

 

How to prepare for a trial?

• Bring photos of hair and/or makeup ideas. This gives the stylist a place to start in providing exactly what you want, especially with hair. You can also send these ahead via email at info@glam2be.com

​

• Bring hair accessories (veil, combs, jeweled pins, etc.) that you may have.

​

• Bring clip-in extensions if you want to use on the wedding day; There is additional fee for placement of extensions.

​

• Bring photos of your dress, bridesmaids’ dresses, jewelry, etc. It’s a good idea to wear white/ivory to get a true sense of your wedding day look and if possible, come dressed not in totally casual clothing. Perhaps wear a top that’s close to the color/neckline of your dress. This will help you see yourself more in bride mode and less how you look every day.

 

• Come with clean, dry hair that has not been flat ironed, as it makes it difficult to curl and put into an up-do or down do. Feel free to put product in but nothing that weighs hair down. If you require a blow-out, please inform us ahead of time. Come with damp hair if possible or we will simply re-wet.

 

• Provide a list or please mention any product allergies you may have. Come with a clean, moisturized face. IF YOU WANT YOUR TRIAL WITH AIRBRUSH MAKEUP, PLEASE INFORM US AHEAD OF TIME AS ARTISTS DON’T ALWAYS HAVE THE EQUIPMENT IF NOT REQUESTED.

 

• Please allow 1-2hrs for hair and makeup trials and no less than 1 hour for makeup-only or hair-only trials. If any trial goes beyond 2 hours, additional fee may apply.

 

• 20% gratuity is included in all services.

 

• And if it’s possible, plan something fun to do after your trial since your hair and makeup will be professionally done and you will look amazing!

How should I prepare for my wedding day hair and makeup?

Have everyone in the bridal party arrive with clean, dry hair and clean moisturized skin If you have SPF in your moisturizer, we recommend avoiding anything over 15 SPF to avoid the “white face” look in photos. Exfoliate your lips so that your lipstick stays longer. On the day of, wear a robe or button-down shirt so that your hair will stay in place, and sit back, relax, and enjoy the pampering before you walk down the aisle.
 

Will my hair and makeup last for my entire ceremony and reception?

Our stylists use the highest quality hair and makeup products to ensure that it hold its style for your big day!  Your stylist will advise you on the best hairstyle for your particular hair type, to ensure that your hair will look its best for your entire wedding day.
