Q: My skin is sensitive how can I be sure it won't react on the day?
A: During your consultation/trial we will analyse your skin and ask you a series of questions to ensure we will not use any products that you know react with your skin. We will then only use products that are designed for sensitive skins. We will use a minimal amount of the products at first to do a test area. If there is no reaction we will then proceed gradually. If in the unlikely situation you were to react we will remove all make-up and try something new. This was we are well prepared in advance of the day.
Q: How far in advance should I have a trial?
A: It is completely up to you! The usual time is between 4-12 weeks. This way we still have time to recommend an effective skin/hair care regime, if necessary , but also allowing us to gauge more or less what we will be working with e.g hair length.
Q: Does everyone have to have a trial?
A: No, we appreciate it is difficult getting everyone together all on one day. If a trial is not conducted on a particular member of the party then we will just take some details so that we are prepared for the day. This will just help with timings etc. However trials are recommended to ensure the perfect style!
