How far in advance should special occasion hair and makeup be booked?

For formals and bigger events in particular, it’s worth booking well ahead of the date to secure a preferred time. A trial appointment beforehand can also help confirm the look.

Is a trial appointment necessary before a special occasion?

A trial isn’t essential, but it does give a chance to test a look and make adjustments before the actual event. It’s particularly useful for more complex hair and makeup combinations.

How long does special occasion hair and makeup typically last through the day?

Special occasion looks are generally created to hold up through photos, dancing and long events. Using the right products and techniques helps the style and makeup stay in place.
