Ok, need to think about this one, but would like some advice as i'm at work, and the only girl, so need some girlie opinions.
Last year I was asked to do a photo shoot and be a "real lives" person for Look Magazine. As part of this, i had a lovely lady who did my hair and makeup for the shoot, and also a stylist who was lovely too.
I was so impressed with the make up artist that i've asked her about doing my hair and makeup for the wedding. I've spoken to her and although she lives in London, and the stuff that she has done before all looks great, and her client list is brilliant, she is happy to travel all the way over to Gloucestershire the morning of my wedding, do my hair and makeup and then head home afterwards. For this, she is only going to charge £250.
I've had an e-mail from her as when i spoke to her, i wanted things confirmed by e-mail, and what she has said is that she doesnt need a trial run with me as she has already done my hair and make up before, so she knows what to expect.
The question is, should i go ahead and say yes without a trial? (its mainly the hair that i'm concerned about), or insist that i have a trial and have added expense....or should i get a trial from my local hairdressers and make sure that i take lots of pics and say, this is what i want, please copy.
Lucky thing is that i dont want anything fussy going on with my hair, just a real natural look with flowing curls and maybe half up, half down.
When i was a bridesmaid for my brother, the lady didnt do a trial on me, and my hair was lovely.
What should i do???
I'm tempted to go for the 3rd option - get a trial locally and take lots of pics.
