• QWhy is it important to hire a professional makeup artist if I dont wear makeup?
• AIf you dont hire a professional makeup artist, you could look washed out, shiny, & blotchy in photos that will last a lifetime. Regardless of how great your skin is, it needs some foundation for photography. Applying your own makeup can be disastrous. You could look tired and worn out on the day you want to radiate! Some brides will attempt to do their own and do not think of the pictures. If you go to a professional makeup artist they will be able to give you exactly what you want and make you picture perfect.
• QWill my makeup last?
• AIf you go to a professional artist, your makeup will last throughout the duration of your wedding. The only thing that needs a touch-up is lipstick, so be sure to purchase one for your purse.
• QWill my hairstyle stay in?
• AIf you go to someone who specializes in styling, it will last. At Demiche, we guarantee that your hair will stay for the duration of your wedding.
• QWhen should I book my wedding hair and makeup artist?
• AWe suggest booking as soon as possible to ensure a spot. Most people book 6 months to one year ahead. Some of our artists are booked on certain weekends up to 2 years in advance!
