Intro & hair/makeup question

Eri72

Hi, Knotties!  I've been lurking for a while and you've all been so helpful.  I'm getting married on May 29, 2011 at the Grain House Restaurant (at the Olde Mill Inn). 

I'm currently looking for a hair and makeup stylist for the big day.  I was going to use Michelle LoConte but she requires 4 people, and I only need services for myself and my MOH.  Gina Brozon is booked.  Mandy at LaSorella is also booked, but says other people at her salon can do it.  I'm thinking of going with Gillian at DeVenir (in Millburn)--a friend used her and liked her.  Any other suggestions or tips?  I have fine/thinning hair, so I need someone sensitive to that (I may use extensions).

Also, seems like they're all pretty pricey, but I'm thinking the expense will be worth it.  Thanks in advance--would love your input!

I used Jillyan at Skin Bar & Paint and she has a hair stylist named Jamie who did my hair for my e-party.  They both did a great job, maybe they are available.

Thanks for the tips--I will look into the suggestions.  I realize I'm a little late with finding someone for May, so fingers crossed...

I just booked Jillyan from Skin Bar and Paint the other week for my NYE wedding, so you should be ok.  I had my trial with her and her hair person (Elizabeth is doing my wedding party) and I loved them both.

Thanks again!  I spoke with Jillyan and she's free on my date.  I have a trial with her and one of her hair stylists next week.  She sounds great and she also doesn't require a minimum amount of people which is awesome considering I have a very small wedding party.
