Everything You Need to Know

Planning your wedding look, or booking microblading, a tiny tattoo, a facial or waxing? Here are answers to the questions brides and clients ask us most often.

Wedding dates, especially weekends in peak season, tend to fill up quickly, so we recommend reaching out as soon as you have your date and venue. As a general guide, we suggest booking 6–12 months ahead for wedding hair & makeup. For microblading, tiny tattoos, facials and waxing, you can book online and choose any available time. Last-minute request? Send us a message anyway and we will do our best to help.

Your date is reserved once the 30% retainer is paid. The remaining balance is due on the day of your service, before it begins. Refunds follow our cancellation policy below. We accept Zelle, credit/debit cards and cash.

A bridal trial is optional but highly recommended. It is a relaxed session of about 2 hours where we get to know your style, test looks with your outfit and jewelry in mind, and make sure you feel completely confident before the big day. We suggest scheduling it about 4–8 weeks before your wedding. Trials take place at our Pleasanton studio.
