What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

✔ Inquiry & Consultation – ************************ to discuss your makeup and/or hair needs. A quick phone or virtual consultation will help us finalize details. ✔ Booking & Payment – After our consultation, I'll send an invoice/contract outlining services and pricing. A signed agreement and non-refundable retainer fee are required to secure your booking. ✔ Preparation & Trial (Brides Only) – Bridal previews are optional but recommended. A skin prep guide will be provided for all makeup clients. ✔ Event Day – I arrive early to set up and provide services at your location. A well-lit space is required; I’ll bring a makeup chair and additional lighting if needed. ✔ Completion & Follow-Up – Final payment is due before departure. I’ll follow up post-event for feedback and any additional needs.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

unfold fold
1️⃣ What’s Your Desired Look? – Have a clear vision of your makeup and/or hair goals. Gather inspiration photos and be ready to discuss your preferences. 2️⃣ What’s the Occasion? – Whether it’s a wedding, photoshoot, or special event, details like the setting, dress code, and theme help customize your look. 3️⃣ How Many People Need Services? – Knowing the number of individuals requiring hair and/or makeup ensures accurate pricing and scheduling. 4️⃣ What’s Your Budget? – Be realistic about the investment. Professionals set their rates based on experience, quality, and time—expecting a discount undervalues their craft. If you're seeking professional services, it's because you value expertise, so respect their pricing accordingly. 5️⃣ Do You Have Any Skin or Hair Concerns? – Share any allergies, sensitivities, or special product needs in advance. 6️⃣ What’s the Event Timeline? – Have your schedule ready, including when services need to be completed, to ensure a smooth experience. 7️⃣ What’s the Service Location? – If on-site services are needed, provide the address in advance to factor in travel time and fees. Being prepared with these details not only streamlines the booking process but also ensures a seamless, high-quality beauty experience!
