Frequently Asked Questions

At The Beauty Concept our mission is to provide excellent care to all of our clients. Below are a list of frequently asked questions and suggestions that may answer any concerns you may have.

HOW EARLY SHOULD I BOOK FOR MY BRIDAL HAIR AND MAKEUP SERVICES?

We recommend to book as early as possible as some popular dates (like holiday long weekends) are booked a year in advance. Sometimes there may be availability even on short notice so feel free to check with us anyways in case we can accommodate.

WILL MY MAKEUP LAST ALL DAY?

Typically the application will last all day with our makeup which has been infused with anti-oxidants. However, in the summer season, humidity may cause the makeup to slip so airbrush makeup is recommended to prevent the makeup from running.

WHAT IS AIRBRUSH MAKEUP?

Airbrush makeup is a liquid makeup that is designed to spray through a small gun using the force of an air compressor. The spray comes out as a fine mist that you can barely see but covers the face with a veil of even skin-toned shade to blur any imperfections.

WHAT TIME SHOULD MY PHOTOGRAPHER/ VIDEOGRAPHER ARRIVE TO CAPTURE GETTING READY SHOTS?

We recommend your photographer/ videographer to arrive 30 minutes before your ready time.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR YOU TO GET A BRIDE READY?

It takes 2 – 3 hours for bridal hair, makeup, jewelry setting and dressing. This also allows time for photographers and videographers to capture the ‘getting ready’ shots.

HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD I BOOK A TRIAL/CONSULTATION?

We recommend at least two or three months before the wedding date or as soon as you have your bridal outfit.

DO YOU PROVIDE HAIR AND MAKEUP SERVICES FOR BRIDAL PARTY?

Yes, we have a team of artists to cover as many ladies as you require. Once you let us know the number of attendees to your party, we can figure out the number of artists needed and the timing to get them all ready.

DO YOU SELL HAIR EXTENSIONS?

If you are interested in hair extensions, they are available for purchase to provide volume or length. They are real human hair clip on extensions, they come in different hair colour and length. It takes 3-7 days to get them ready and a colour match is required.

DO YOU PROVIDE ON LOCATION SERVICES?

Yes. For early morning bookings, our artists can provide on-site service (be it at home, hotel, or at the hall). Travel fee quote provided once we have exact address of the location. We also provide destination wedding services anywhere in the world.

SHOULD I COME IN AND GET A FACIAL TREATMENT DONE? IF SO, HOW SOON BEFORE THE WEDDING SHOULD I START?

Yes, at least 6 months before your wedding. Our aesthetician will consult with you to see what treatment is best suitable for you. Your facial should be at the latest 3 days prior to your wedding day.
