When you book Lovely Hair and Makeup, it’s more than just a beauty service; it’s having a calm, reliable, and fun friend by your side. I’m part bodyguard, part therapist, part jokester, and 100% focused on making sure you feel beautiful, relaxed, and ready to shine.
FAQ:
1. How do you make sure my makeup lasts in Orlando’s humidity?
We use professional, long-wear, waterproof products designed to withstand Florida’s heat and humidity. Our techniques include prepping the skin with humidity-resistant primers, using setting sprays, and layering products for a flawless finish that lasts all day (and night).
2. What brands of products do you use?
We use high-quality, professional-grade brands such as MAC, NARS, Charlotte Tilbury, RCMA, Pat McGrath, and Danessa Myricks, to name a few. Every product is chosen for its longevity, comfort, and photo-friendly finish, ensuring you look great in person and on camera.
Do you offer airbrush makeup?
No, I do not offer airbrush makeup, and that's intentional. While airbrush is often marketed as flawless, it actually has several limitations that don't align with the results I want for my clients. Airbrush makeup sits on top of the skin rather than working into it, which means it can emphasize fine lines, texture, and dryness, especially on mature or textured skin. It's also very restrictive in application. Airbrush is applying a single thin layer without the ability to properly build, blend, or customize coverage. You can't layer creams underneath or tailor the skin prep and finish the same way you can with traditional makeup. Another downside is flexibility throughout the day. Airbrush doesn't allow for easy touch-ups. If it wears off or separates, it's difficult to fix without disrupting the entire base. With a traditional foundation, I can provide a touch-up kit so you can refresh your makeup seamlessly. My goal is always to create skin-like, long-lasting, and customizable finishes, whether that's soft matte or radiant and dewy. Traditional makeup allows me to fully tailor it to your skin type, your preferences, and how you feel.
4. Will my hair hold up in the humidity?
We use professional heat protectants, strong yet flexible hold products, and techniques that ensure your style holds even in high humidity. For outdoor weddings or beach events, we often recommend styles that are less prone to frizz or collapse.
5. Do you travel to me?
Yes, all of our services are on-location. Whether you’re getting ready at your home, hotel, or venue, we bring everything needed to create your look on-site.
6. How far in advance should I book?
We recommend booking as soon as you have your date confirmed—especially during peak wedding season (spring and fall in Florida). Many clients book 6–12 months in advance to secure their preferred time slot.
7. How long does hair and makeup take on the day of?
For most clients, hair and makeup take about 90 minutes per person. Brides may take 2 hours, depending on the style. We create a timeline for you ahead of time to keep everything stress-free and on schedule.
8. Do you offer touch-ups or stay-through services?
Absolutely! We offer optional touch-up packages or all-day services for photoshoots, multiple looks, or humid outdoor events where extra maintenance might be needed.
9. Can you handle large bridal parties?
Yes! We have a team available for larger groups and can create a schedule to keep everyone on time. The earlier you book, the more flexibility we have to bring in additional artists if needed.
10. What sets Lovely Hair and Makeup apart from other artists?
We’re more than a beauty service. We bring a calming presence, attention to detail, and a reliable experience. We’ve built our reputation on being punctual, dependable, and making sure you not only look amazing but feel relaxed and cared for throughout your day.
