Wedding Hair and Makeup FAQ | Everything You Need to Know

To make your bridal journey stress-free, we have put together this Wedding Hair and Makeup FAQ guide. Below, we mention some most frequently asked questions that help you feel calm, confident, and beautifully prepared.

1. When Should I Book My Wedding Hair and Makeup Artist?

So, we suggest you to a Wedding Hair and Makeup artist as early as you can, especially for peak wedding season. Peak wedding season starts from April to October. So, when your wedding date is final and you select a wedding venue then it is good to find your hair and makeup artist along with your photographer.

2. Do You Offer Both Bridal Hair And Makeup?

Yes, Naomi’s Headmasters specializes in both bridal makeup and hairstyling. By hiring us as your professional makeup artist, you can enjoy a streamlined, stress-free hair and makeup experience with just one professional. This is effective on the morning of your wedding when timings can be tight, and I find it much easier to work effectively to a time schedule. That being said, though, if you would rather book it with a hair and make-up artist, then I am very happy to work with another artist.

3. Do I Need a Trial Session?

Yes, a bridal hair and make trial is highly recommended 3 to 4 weeks before. Trials are a great way to get an idea of what you would like. It allows you to choose different styles, discuss your vision with your stylist, and ensure that everything looks exactly how you imagined. This will help you feel more relaxed and confident on your wedding day. At Naomi’s Headmasters, we allow trial sessions for your wedding hairstyle and makeup that give you peace of mind and help you avoid last-minute stress.

4. How Long Does Wedding Hair and Makeup Take?

Generally, it takes 2-3 hours but for additional people like bridesmaids, mums, etc we allow at least 45 minutes for both makeup and hairstyle. We encourage you to plan for an early start and discuss a beauty timetable, your stylist will be able to help you with this. Our experienced team at Naomi’s Headmasters will help coordinate the timing so everything runs smoothly.

5. Should I Wash My Hair before My Wedding?

It depends on the style you are going for because some hairstylists recommend washing your hair one night before. Clean, and freshly washed hair becomes too slippery to style, and second-day hair holds curls or updos better. At Naomi’s Headmasters, we give you personalized advice based on your hair type and the hairstyle you chose during your trial session.

6. What Should I Bring to My Trial Appointment?

You can bring the following things for your bridal hair and makeup trial:

• Photos of styles you like (Pinterest boards are great!)
• Your veil, hair accessories, or jewelry (if available)
• A photo of your wedding dress
• Any skin or hair products you regularly use
• Photos of your natural makeup look, if you have preferences

This will help stylists to create a look that’s tailored to you and your wedding style.

7. What Types of Bridal Hairstyles Are Popular?

There are various popular wedding hairstyles, which include:

• Romantic curls and waves
• Elegant low buns or chignons,
• Boho braids or half-up, half-down styles.
• Sleek ponytails or straight, glossy styles.

Naomi’s Headmasters help you select the best wedding hairstyle that complements your face shape, dress neckline, and wedding theme. 

8. How Do I Make My Makeup Last All Day?

Below, we list some pro tips to make your makeup long-lasting:

• Use a good Primer and setting spray that makes your makeup long-lasting.
• Choose waterproof makeup products such as waterproof mascara and long-wear foundation.
• Do not swipe if you sweat or tear up.
