  • Sure do! Fifty percent of the minimum estimated services is required to secure your date and is non-refundable. Payments accepted for deposit are bank transfer or major credit cards though a secure payments system.

    Please see Extra Fees FAQ for more info!

  • Heck no, Techno. What a terrible myth. Most hair is styled best fresh washed and dried with a bit of mousse for volume and hold. You know your hair, and you always like it best second day, that is perfectly fine! Just not too greasy, okay? Nobody likes that smell on a curling iron πŸ™‚

  • Your hair will stay in place until you're good and ready to take it down, and your makeup will last through the last dance. Barring inclement weather, the combination of techniques and professional products will ensure a flawless look throughout your big day.

  • Of course we can! It can get tricky with destination weddings, but if it fits into both of our busy schedules, we can make it happen!

    Trials are available to brides after deposit has been paid and for an extra $219.

  • Fresh, clean skin is always best. A little bit of your favorite moisturizer won't hurt though πŸ™‚ We’ll bring everything else: primers, setting sprays, you name it. If you have any of these products that you know you love, just let us know so we can use them for you!

  • It all depends on how many people are using our services and what time you want to be finished. A typical start time is between 8a - 9a for four styles/makeups.

  • We use a variety of professional products, including waterproof eye products to ensure a flawless look, no matter how many happy tears! If you have sensitive skin, or want to use products you know and love, we can still use your own makeup and apply it like a pro! We recommend finding a lip shade you love so you can carry it around and reapply as needed throughout the evening.

  • We'll bring everything we need! The only exception to this is any special hairpiece or temporary extensions you'd like to use day-of. We also recommend bringing a lip shade you love so you can have it with you all evening, but this isn’t necessary.

  • No ma'am, short hair can actually be more challenging and time consuming to design.

  • Not always. We base service costs primarily on the amount of time it takes to create a design for you. So long as we stay (primarily) within the allotted time, all’s well.

    Should we go over, it’s an additional $25/half-hour, regardless of the service being rendered. Please let us know ahead of time if you have a lot of hair so we can plan our timeline accordingly πŸ™‚

  • Nobody wants this, but if the last few years has taught us anything, it's that we can't predict the future. The deposit is non-refundable but is transferrable, so you can secure another available date and still be all set!

  • All services are subject to Hawaii State Tax.

  • A couple of extra things -- I am available for travel and I LOVE to do it! You can even add on time for touchups in the middle of a hike if that's where your adventure elopement takes you!

    Also, any appointments requiring travel fees will need to have at least one full hair and makeup sesh (or two hairdos or two makeups πŸ™‚).
