Sugar & Spice post-review

Well, I had my B Pics with Sugar and Spice today! Kristin and Kylie were the two that did my shoot, and I had so much fun! I was a little nervous but once I walked in they immediately made me feel comfortable. It was fun having girl talk while I got in hair/makeup and they were just so friendly! I was planning on using FI's Packers jersey for part of one outfit but when I went to pack it today I saw he spilled crap on it during the Superbowl! So I just brought his Packer hat and they found this cute green and yellow tank paired w/ yellow lingerie for a football outfit. :) The other was more of a softer, pink/white outfit.

I can't say enough how happy I am that I did it! The hair and makeup was awesome and I definitely have never seen extensions in my hair, but they looked great! Both of them were very encouraging and at one point after doing one pose, Kylie said, "Ok great, time for the next outfit!" She was so excited with how good the pictures were that she forgot we had only done one pose, lol. Anyway, I had an awesome time and can't wait to see the photos!

    YAY!  That is awesome!  How long did they say the pics take?  I *really* wanted to go with S&S because of how they pamper you (extensions, eye lashes AND provide the outfits) but I just couldn't spend that much.   However after going to the marathon at Cadence Cornelius I kinda wish I had gone with S&S anyway because after buying the lingerie, buying fake eyelashes myself, buying extensions (and not even getting to wear them) I probably spent over $400 anyway and I didn't get exactly what I wanted in terms of how I looked.  Plus the stylist cut a chunk of my hair in front in order to get it to do what she wanted - wtf?  Now I have this misc piece of hair in front that bugs me and sucks. 

    Anyway you'll have to post some of your pics if you're comfortable, once you get them!  :)

    They said the pictures would take around 2 weeks, which I figure is pretty standard. They are going to send me a link to a gallery where I will have a few pictures edited so I can see what that looks like, in case I want more retouched. I agree that it IS pricey, but I think in the end I am glad that I did it. I did the 2 outfit package, and I got a slight discount when I paid in cash for the final deposit. I loved the extensions, it was cool how much it enhanced my hair. It was kind of insane how many different outfits & lingerie sets they had!! I wanted to wear so many, lol.
    That is weird that she cut a piece of your hair, I would've freaked out haha. I'm sure your pictures will look great though! And yeah I might post the link to the gallery when I get it, depending on how much I like them! ;)

    Musical - you are going to love them... mine took longer because the girls had a vacation planned - it was torture and then I got the email (link) and work and wanted to check them out so badly! I had a GF over and we had dinner and wine and looked at them together it was a blast!

    :)
