Consultation & Trial

Once you have booked, we will arrange a complimentary consultation to understand your overall vision.

We'll go through your hairstyle and makeup preferences and address any concerns or requests you may have. Your outfit and location will also be considered so that your look complements your event.

For bridal makeup and hair, I'll incorporate your flowers, colour scheme, hair accessories, dress, if you will be wearing a veil, and possible themes like vintage and bohemian into your styling.

I'm happy to arrange a consultation in person if you live in Brighton or nearby. Otherwise, we can schedule a phone call. You can then go ahead and book me directly for your event or arrange a trial session.

Please note: the trial is essential for wedding bookings so we can make any necessary adjustments ahead of time.

Your trial will be approximately six to eight weeks before your wedding day. This gives us an opportunity to experiment, try out colours and test various products to see how they work on your skin. We can be creative and experimental, but the outcome will be a firm decision about how you will look.

During the trial, you may find your original idea of what you want evolves. This is completely normal and allows us to fine-tune your look to perfection. Throughout the process, I'll document what products I am using and take photos for reference to ensure we create the same look.

A consultation lasts approximately 15 minutes while a trial lasts for around two hours.
