Hair & Makeup Trial Sessions
We lend ourselves well to brides looking to book their hair and makeup services through one company, you then have one set of admin to deal with and you can have your hair and makeup trial session at the same place and time, this works really well as you can then see your full look come together.
All trail sessions are conducted from our studio in Frodsham, Cheshire Monday - Thursday 8.45am-7.30pm when we are not working on weddings.
We advise that you have a trial session at least four months before your wedding day, that way if you change your mind on anything and require another trial, we can accommodate this.
Bridal trial sessions are only conducted by Vicky, Anna will at times help on bridal hair trials and other members of your bridal party, other team members may assist on members of your bridal party also.
A detailed email will be sent to you 2 weeks prior to attending your trial session, this will ask for photos of your hair and the hairstyle you would like created. By knowing this before you attend your session, we can advise you if we think you will need clip-in hair extensions depending on the hairstyle you would like creating and your own hairs thickness, length etc.
These can be ordered through us depending on your hair and if enough notice is given prior to your trial session.
Party lashes are included with your makeup application, we can create about 20 different looks depending on your individual eye shape and desired look. Lashes are designed to last the day and can be easily removed with baby oil or oily eye makeup remover.
Bridal hair and makeup trial session for 3-3.5 hours includes:
2022-2023 Weddings: £120
Includes: Consultation, creative hair styling, airbrush makeup application, party lashes, run through of wedding day timetable and final arrangements.

A detailed information brochure will be given to you before your wedding day to please share with all the members of your bridal party who are using our services, the reason for this is to make sure your morning runs smoothly and everyone knows how we will work on the morning of your wedding day.
This gives advice on when to wash your hair, false lashes aftercare advice and useful tips for the day.

Please also make your bridal party aware of timings and when they need to please be available, we are not always ready at the exact time we ask someone to be available as so many factors influence times, we will just be doing our very best for you all.

Booking Terms
Vicky works as the lead makeup artist and applies makeup for the bride on every wedding we are booked for, Vicky also styles about 50% of our brides hair, Anna styles the other 50% of brides hair.
Its only ever Vicky or Anna who style our brides and Vicky would normally then oversee everything and manage our team on your wedding morning.
We also have a few other artists/stylists who we can book to assist us when working on large group bookings.
Extra charges would apply:
If parking is chargeable and or if mileage is more than stated as included in the price from WA6 7BT.
If you and your bridal party need to be ready particularly early and you would rather us hire another artist than you having an early start, if your booking does not warrant us paying another artist extra, charges to you, the Bride would apply.
Please be aware that extra charges always apply if a change of location is needed while we are working on your wedding, this is often needed if your chosen wedding venue does not allow you access until a certain time, meaning that you need to start getting ready in another location. Charges would depend on distance between the two locations, even with a very short distance, we need to set up and pack away twice and extra time needs to be allocated for this.
We charge £35.00 extra per artist/stylist needed on Bank Holidays.
Booking Fee Towards Your Wedding Day
We require a £80-£230 non-refundable booking fee to secure your wedding date, depending on how many artists your booking requires, this is then deducted from your final bill for your wedding day. Trial sessions are extra and do not count towards this.
Please read our terms and conditions page before booking with us, we advise having your trial session at least 4 months before your wedding as cancellation of services within 4 months of your wedding date would mean that the total amount owed on your booking form is still due to be paid to us. It is very unlikely that we would get booked on another wedding in that time frame if our services were no longer required.
