Award-Winning Hair Salon in Madison, Wisconsin

Your Wedding Makeup Preparations

1. Pictures speak to professionals

Most brides bring pictures to their artists showing them what they’d love their hair to look like. We want to know what your dream makeup looks like as well!

You may be inspired by a natural look or you may want a bold look.  We want to see what this means to you!

2. Selfies are a must

Be Inspired Salon will provide you with photos from your bridal hair and makeup trial.  We will take front, side and back view pictures both indoors and if weather permits, we will go outdoors as well.  So, not only will you have the opportunity to live in your style throughout the day, but you will also see what this will look like for your wedding photography!

 

3. Sunless tanning match-up

We recommend you practice sunless tanning with a professional that will give you believable results that blend best with your skin tone.  Once you’ve tried this and are prepared with the proper tone for your wedding day, you will want to remember this:  You must have your spray tan scheduled the same amount of days prior to your bridal hair & makeup trial as you would before the wedding date.  This is to ensure the makeup tones we use for your trial are the perfect shades used for your wedding day.  Especially for the brides we travel on-site for hair and makeup!

4. Facial Waxing Timeline

If you are a regular waxing recipient, please proceed with your facial waxing as soon as one week prior to your wedding date.  However, if you have sensitive skin, dry skin, or you are not a regular waxing recipient, we recommend you schedule these facial waxing appointments two weeks prior to your wedding date.  This would include your lip wax, brow wax, chin wax, and potentially cheek wax.   Why?   Because your wedding makeup will NOT sit evenly on freshly exfoliated skin.  You will need time for your skin to rejuvenate themselves appropriate so you’ll be one flawless canvass for your wedding makeup.

5. Flawless skin= flawless makeup!

Your makeup will only be as radiant as your skin’s condition allows.  Acne is not as concerning as dry skin.  It’s imperative you seek professional guidance to ensure your skin is properly hydrated. Our partner, Robertson Cosmetic Center, will provide you the very best service for your skincare needs.
