hate my hair trial

Alyssa, on January 20, 2019 at 7:05 PM Posted in Hair and Makeup 0 8
So, I went with the Spa at the resort in which we’re getting married, thinking that it would be super easy to just spend the day with my girls at the spa before our evening wedding. Well, there’s only two women who do hair at the spa, and both would be doing all of our hair and makeup (theres 7 of us total). So I paid for the hair and makeup trial... 156$. Which would’ve been more, but their gun for the airbrush broke down.... and my makeup wasn’t so bad.. just a lot which I’m not used to. But the hair didn’t come out like I wanted at all. I felt like she used too much product, and yes, though it was secured and stayed, I explained to her that I curl my hair on a daily basis and it holds a curl without hairspray, all day. I showed her a picture off of Pinterest, which is attached and she gave me something completely different. My hair was super stiff, and very frizzy. The worst part other than the price, was that it took 1.45 minutes for my hair and an hour for my makeup. At first i thought maybe the rushed it because it was just a trial, until i realized how long i was there for. So, Ive recently decided to go with a mobile hair dresser and makeup artist, that has 10 girls and 190 five star reviews on wedding-wire. All my other vendors were review based. I just feel bad cancelling now at the spa, especially because i have a massage scheduled the day begore the wedding and I’m afraid I’ll have to see the two hair dressers. All my girls asked me MY opinion before telling me their opinion. So I knew it wasn’t good.

    You shouldn’t feel bad at all. They are providing a service. A service that you’re paying for. If you don’t like said service, you can go elsewhere.

    I can see how diff it is from the pictures and honestly I think they didn’t do a good job. Don’t feel bad at all go with your gut. You should feel amazing and not have to stress on your wedding day. I love the style you are going for from the Pinterest picture! Hopefully the mobile group can get it right for you.

    That picture does not look professionally down. Definitely not worth the money.

    It is cute from the front but that braid is weird!!! Don’t feel bad. If you’re afraid it is going to be awkward, I would call and tell them honestly that you didn’t like it (perhaps there is an office manager to talk to instead of the stylist themself)

    The makeup looks gorgeous but I agree the hair does not look right. How disappointing. I am sure you will find a great stylist nearby!

    I'm glad you decided to hire a different hair and makeup team. Honestly neither look professionally done. The foundation they used doesn't even match your skin tone and looks darker on your forehead. The hair doesn't look like your inspiration pic at all. I think that style will look great on you once someone more capable gets their hands on you.

    That is a lot for a trial. Your hair looks good, but not like the picture. Just cancel your HAMU. I had two trials before I booked. The first one went like yours, my curled hair was hard & crunchy & had a ton of fly aways. The second one was WAY better.
