If you’re booking hair and makeup for an important event, speak with our team so you can plan your appointments in the best order.
We recommend booking as early as possible for important occasions, particularly during school formal, wedding and Christmas party seasons when popular appointment times can fill quickly.
If you need several appointments for a bridal party or group, booking early also gives us the best opportunity to coordinate your preferred times.

We particularly recommend keeping your lip product available for touch-ups throughout longer events.
We can accommodate many guests with sensitive skin, but it’s important to tell us about known allergies, sensitivities or previous reactions before your appointment.
