Wedding Prep: The best hair and makeup teams in Singapore

Planning for your big day? Well, calm down and don’t turn into a fearsome bridezilla.

Now the first step to avoiding wedding day meltdowns is by settling your look for the big day. Although glowing with happiness is more than enough, picking the right hair and makeup artist is key to looking flawless on your day – and for your pictures.

Before you commit to a hair and makeup team though, look through the artist’s portfolio to make sure their aesthetic style matches what you have in mind and always request for a trial session to avoid potential disasters on the actual day. During the session, wear a white top or dress with a similar neckline to what you’ve picked as your wedding dress. It helps the artist and you visualise the look better for the actual day.  If you intend to wear jewellery on that day, bring those along too and that way you’ll be able to gauge if your hairstyle clashes with the baubles or not.

Make sure you’ve set aside a budget for your beauty look because easily the cost can run up to SGD1000 depending on the artist and package. Some charge extra for false eyelashes or eyebrow trimming while others offer packages that are less comprehensive but cost the same.

So now that you’re armed with these tips, here are 8 of the most talked about hair and makeup stylists gathered from wedding and bridal forums and websites that you could consider.
