So unhappy with second hair and makeup trial. Feedback?

I was happy with my first hair and makeup trial, but decided I want more on my eyes but loved everything else. I also decided to do something different with my hair this time.

I was happy with my first hair and makeup trial, but decided I want more on my eyes but loved everything else. I also decided to do something different with my hair this time. So, I said I wanted everything the same except to play up my eyes and gave an example photo for the hair and makeup(separate inspo pics). I think she did what I asked for the eyes but it's just not flattering on me?? I also feel like my hair is already falling out an hour later and just don't think it looks good. What do I do? I can't afford a third trial.

ETA: I think I may just stick with the first makeup trial look. She really didn't get my hair right at all for the second hair trial(my hair fell out after an hour and my hair holds a curl really well), is it fair/appropriate of me to ask for another hair trial for her to correct at no cost?

    Been said a bunch but honestly, I enjoy the first trial a lot more than the second one. It seems softer and a lot higher quality work than the second one.

    Okay so I know you don’t wanna spend more money than you already have, but is there any way to find somebody else? I know this is silly, but I still look at my hair and makeup (which actually was pretty) from my junior prom and hateeeeee the way it looked and that was years ago! Everyone loved the way it looked and it IS pretty to me, HOWEVER it wasn’t what I wanted originally and I still regret that I didn’t do something different. I love hair and makeup but that was my first time to have it professionally done and so its one of the few pictures I have including my senior prom where I was in a very formal dress - however I got it right the next year with hair style I had somebody pro do, and then loved the way my makeup turned out. So the point I am trying to make is.... even though it doesn’t look bad (I personally love the makeup in your 2nd trial, you look stunning, however I don’t think it looks like the insp. pic you gave, which is gorgeous) BUT if YOU don’t like it, then years later you might look back and be annoyed that it wasn’t what you actually wanted. And if you haven’t 100% been pleased with two trials - then I would be looking for someone else who can deliver exactly what you want.

    Ahhhh just read about your contract.... I don’t know what you do, but if it was me personally, I would sit down and let her know straight up that is not what you have envisioned if that doesn’t work with a third trial then contract behind I would definitely be looking elsewhere. Just be upfront and let her know exactly what you like and don’t like with the preovious two trials. I also think a third trial should be free.

    You're gorgeous. I agree with everyone else. I like your first trial much more, you look very bridal and pretty. Your second trial looks more like an everyday makeup look.

    I agree as well that your 1st trial looked best
