Hair and Makeup

I finally found a hair stylist that I like in my area.  (I was driving close to an hour everytime I wanted to get my hair cut before).  However, her salon does hair only and I haven't tried a trial run for my updo.  I was wondering how everyone was scheduling their hair and makeup appointments.  Are you getting it all done at the same place?  Should I find somewhere that would do both hair and makeup in the same place.  Or make two appointments in different places for each?  Which are you having done first makeup or hair? And if anyone is from the New Bedford, MA area I would love to hear some recommendations of somewhere to go.TIA!!

  • I'm in the same boat. Found a stylist I love, but the salon doesn't do makeup. Luckily I managed to find a salon just around the corner that does do makeup, so it won't kill my timeline that morning.
  • Can you afford to have a stylist/MUA come to you (at your home or hotel room)?  If possible then that would be the most convenient for you on the day so you don't feel like you are running around all morning.  If you love the stylist and don't mind the driving, try to find a MUA that is close so you don't spend too much time in transit.  It's your big day - make sure you can relax!
  • I had my hair done at a salon and then hace the MUA come to me at the venue. I used www.makeupbybrea.com Brea is awesome. She will travel to New Bedford.

  • I am paying a makeup artist and hair stylist to come on site. I know it's a bit more but with the hustle and bustle of NY on a Saturday it is completely worth it. I want to relax and be a bride, not run around all over the place.I am getting married in NY but flying a Chicago makeup artist to our location.  I have a ton of miles so it's not costing me anything except her day rate and putting her in a hotel next door to my in-laws condo. As far as timing goes, I have no idea how it would work.
