Hair and make up trial a success

I am in love with my makeup artist as she understood that I wanted to go for a soft look with a pop of color and she had great suggestions. She told me along the way the stuff she was doing and asked me if I'd be okay with certain things and she even took me a little bit outside of my comfort zone...

Ultimately I think I'm going to go with the full updo but I'm curious to see which hairstyle you all like the best and what you think of the makeup.cfb_1423091.jpg

    You are gorgeous! I love your hair down but I also love the loose updo and hairpiece that you chose. Your makeup is perfect! So happy you were able to finalize that perfect look. You will be a stunning bride!

    Thanks so much! The heavy fave seems to be down but I think I am loving the up more esp with the veil. I loved those hair pieces too and thank God I found some very similar on Amazon for less than $9 lol.

    I think all of the hairstyles look gorgeous, but the updo is my favorite.

    Awwwww thanks. I am going with the updo. It made me do a happy dance once I put on the veil.

    The makeup is stunning!! IMO though, I like your hair down better. I think it looks more youthful. But you gotta do what makes you happy. Congrats, Beautiful!

    I agree but I think the updo has a bit more of a bridal feel to it does that make sense? LOL. I may decide differently the day of ha ha. Thank you so much Smiley smile

    I get what you're saying. You can make the first look more "bridal" though by adding a blingly comb or even the one you have in the updo picture. You'll be in a gown....you'll look bridal anyway. LOL. But again, you have to go with what you feel. I just was most partial to the first pic of you with the hair down. You'll be stunning no matter which hairstyle you choose, though.

    Yeah I bought pins similar to the up do. It's okay most people even my friends loved it down more and I do too. On the day of I may go that route it's just something about it up I love more. Maybe because I have never written that look as a Bridesmaid and my goal the day of is to not look like a Bridesmaid ya know? Like even my hmua was hesitant but with the updo she loved it more and something about it with the veil made my mouth drop and even do a little shuffle. That's what I think about when I compare the two styles. I loved the down one but it didn't make me go crazy ya know?

    You look so gorgeous!! The makeup is natural but enough to define your features - it's totally on point! 👌 And I love the updo! ❤️

    Thanks so much. I am most excited about that style and loved my make up. She did exactly what I wanted which was natural w a pop of color.

    Love this all so much!! Your makeup is on point, and I love all three hairstyles! I think the updo is so beautiful, but all look amazing.

    At the risk of sounding like a total creeper (haha) it's so nice to see your photo! I feel like we follow/respond to each other so much LOL, it's like planning with a friend Smiley smile

    LOL you do not sound like a creeper lol I get it. Sometimes we are all odd faces on here hee hee. Thanks so much, I am glad to hear that. I wanna look good for the day. Funny the hair down is the most popular. My nail tech said it is more romantic but I want the more classic look if that makes sense. Also, that hair was similar to a style I wore as a bridesmaid so I keep feeling updo is more bridal for me. Maybe I am wrong lol. Thank you so much.

    So glad you got it LOL. Yea, I feel you on the hair. I really love the first hair photo, but for me, a bridal updo is so classic and formal. I debated doing half up and down (and actually always thought that I would), but I wear my hair down when I dress up for every day, and felt that an updo would really give me that "wow" factor. The hair pins are super pretty as well!

    I think you are one of the few that gets me. I have never done up and I want classic and formal which is why I am thinking that. Plus, while I loved the other styles that one when she put on the veil actually made me jump a little jig. That is what is making me go for that style because of how it made me feel. Even my HMUA was doubtful but I asked her to do an updo just to humor me and she is team hair up do lol. I almost considered half up half down but did that too and wear my hair like that sometimes too so yeah I feel you about the up do. You deserve the wow factor too. My FH may die from the fake lashes though lol.

    True. I am keeping the up do even if I make modifications to it. If it was not $110 I would use her for my bridal shower or bachelorette but that is alright lol.
