I'm super psyched about the salon where my bridesmaids and I will be going for the wedding, but my budget is a bit tight. I've had my hair done many times in an updo for past school dances and proms, to varying degrees of success at different salons, and I had my makeup done once before. The salon that we are using for my wedding is not a place that I have ever been before, but they have great reviews and photos on facebook, and I got to tour the facility.
The problem is, the hair and makeup test will cost me over $150. I have photos of what I'd like, I know the makeup color family that I typically use... plus, my bridesmaids won't be having trials before the big day. I'm really not too picky, my hair is straight/wavy/long and not terribly difficult to work with, and my ceremony doesn't start until 5 so I have hours that I'm able to spend at the salon before the photographer shows up just in case the appointment takes longer than expected ... will I regret it if I don't get the trial, and save some money instead?
I'm just going to wash off the makeup and take down my hair after the trial anyway. Too fancy for me on a normal day!
