How to Maximize Your Bridal Preview.

Your hair and makeup trial is a crucial step in bringing your wedding day vision to life. To make the most of it, preparation is key! Here’s how you can ensure your trial is as productive and stress-free as possible:

1. Know What You Want: Don’t wait until the day of your trial to start figuring out your look. Spend time experimenting with different hairstyles and makeup looks on your own. Try pinning your hair up or wearing it half-down—how do you feel? Make note of it. For example, if you don’t like how you feel with your hair up, you’re likely not going to like up an updo. For makeup, try different styles: a lip color, different eyeshadow tones, a matte lid, a glowy lid. Do you feel confident? Do you love the way it complements your features? Make note of what you like and what you don’t like. The more you explore beforehand, the more prepared you’ll be to make decisions during the trial. This will allow your artist to spend their time really honing in on your look verses guessing what you will like/dislike.

2. Narrow Down Your Options: Come into the trial with a clear idea of what you want for both hair and makeup. Bring inspiration photos and focus on styles that suit your hair type, skin tone, and face shape. Keep in mind, it’s inspiration, not replication—be realistic, and know that your hair, skin, and features are unique. The outcome may differ slightly from the photo, but it will be beautifully customized to you.

3. Be Open to Adjustment and feedback: Even if you have a strong vision, stay flexible and open to your stylist’s suggestions. Whether it’s adjusting your makeup to suit your skin tone or adapting a hairstyle to suit your hair type, we can offer expert advice to make sure you look your best.

By preparing ahead of time, narrowing down your options, and staying open to adjustments, you’ll maximize your trial session and leave with a look that’s perfectly tailored to you for your big day!
