#2. Know what you want!

During the first meeting with the artist, pay attention to every detail. A professional artist will always discuss the following points with you:

a) What kind of makeup and hair do you want?

A professional keeps in mind the likes and dislikes of his/her client as customer satisfaction is his/her utmost priority. Share your opinions with the artist. Tell them what you are looking for, give them some references or show them pictures of your previous work. If you have no idea about what you want, then it is best to let the artist take the lead.

b) What are you wearing?

A veteran will always focus on the colours of your bridal attire, jewellery and the accessories. The colours hold a very important place while deciding the palette for your makeup. Beware of the artist who suggests the same colour of the eye-shadow as your attire. A professional will always go for the colours that will make your face stand out.

c) What is your skin and hair type?

An artist needs to know the texture of your skin and hair, so as to work out the apt look for you. Skin and hair texture may vary in different weathers. The artist will keep in mind the kind of products he/she should be using on you, according to the season. While consulting the artist, it is important for you to be actively involved. Ask the artist to share with you the makeup and hair brands he/she uses. Check whether the brand is compatible to your skin type.

#3. Connect with your artist

Most brides do not bother about this one. But, if you wish to get the best out of an artist, you need to notice whether he/she is able to understand what exactly you want. Not only this, you should also be able to understand the working style of the artist. Remember, it is more of the skill of the artist that you are paying for, rather than the brands being used!

You can choose from various looks- natural look, smoky eyes, bronzy look, glossy makeup, Arabic makeup, classic retro and many more. A professional will always play with your features like eyes, lips, cheekbone, etc. You can opt for a trial session as well.
