Depends on the time of the wedding, and how many people and what they want done ie hair, make-up or both. If people want hair and make-up done, depending on the length of the hair and type of style it could take around 2hours per person. Short hair up or blow dry with make-up might take around 1hr 15mins-1hr 30mins.
I started my business when I was 20 years old doing the beauty side of things, then eventually did the hair side of things, and qualified within a year, and a month before I had my first son. It will be 32 years I've been in business in October 2025.
Get in touch in plenty of time with companies, and have all information such as date and time of wedding, address of where you'll be getting ready on the morning, and if not at the venue, a time when you have to leave by.
Meeting a variety of people, and doing different work, such as just hair or make-up or both, whether it's for the bride and bridal party or guests etc coming to the area to attend a wedding, wanting hair/make-up done.
I always turn up on time or earlier, I have told them in advance of the day what the routine will be, to who I will start with and the order of my work.
