Bride vs bridesmaid hair/makeup

Michelle, on November 19, 2021 at 8:26 PM Posted in Hair and Makeup 0 6
Do the artists you went with (or are considering) focus mainly on the bride and barely touch the bridesmaids or does everyone get equal time and attention to detail?

    For us, the amount of time spent on each person depends on what look everyone wants. If it’s something simple, less time will be spent on that person; more extensive looks (ex: complicated up ‘do, or heavy makeup with lashes, etc) will mean more time on that individual(s).

    For us it will be something like 45-60 mins per bridesmaid and 60-90 minutes for me. So, a little more attention and time, but not like, no focus at all!

    It'll be something similar to this timing for my wedding! And whoever is in the chair having their hair/makeup done gets the full attention of the stylist until theirs is done, along with the same attention to detail. I would never book a hair/makeup artist who would give less attention to detail to the bridesmaids. Bridesmaids hair styles typically take less time because they're often not as complex as a bridal hair style (depending on what the bride wants done), though the attention to detail should be the same regardless of if the style takes 5 minutes or 45 minutes.

    Obviously I got more work because I was the bride and was supposed to stand out, but we pretty much got equal timing. Mine took a little bit longer because I got extra detail but my MUA did amazing on all of our faces! My bridesmaids were definitely touched as well

    For us it was pretty equal with me getting maybe a little more time. Whoever was in the chair though got their full expert attention. Everyone looked absolutely beautiful and hair and makeup lasted all day and night for everyone.

    Probably about the same amount of time, one of my bridesmaids has short hair so she won’t require much in terms of hairdo but she will still get close to 45 min/1 hr. I probably will have a full 2 hours, only because of my hair.
