Yes, all our team carry their own Public liability insurance.
You will find that there are many freelance MUA’s and Hairstylists that are not insured.
All our carefully selected freelance artists are fully qualified and insured before joining the team.
We only have the most exceptionally talented and trained professionals working under the PRG name!
At your Trial we ask you to have a collection of photos and ideas and a picture of your dress to show your chosen makeup artist and hairstylist.
She will listen to your ideas and will provide the best advice to achieve the look you are after.
We want you to be 100% happy and if there is something you are not sure about; we can change it until you are.
By the end of your appointment you should see yourself exactly as you will on your wedding day.
Our hair and makeup artists aim to have everyone ready an hour before you need to leave for the ceremony, they usually allocate 1 hour per service for the bride and 40 minutes for each person thereafter.
This is a guideline as some people can take less or more time depending on hair type, length and style chosen, your artist will go through the timings and ETA at your trial.
Only professional products are used.
Our team are all freelance so use a wide variety of brands that they feel blend well, give the best finish to the naked eye and in photos, and are friendly on skin.
You will find Estee Lauder, inglot, Nars, Laura Mercer, MAC, Dior, Bobbi Brown and much more in our kits.
Certainly – we can advise on hair extensions to add length or to thicken your hair.
These can either be semi-permanent hair extensions that last up to three months or clip-in extensions to be used just for the day. Feel free to ask us for more details at the time of booking.
This is the real reason for your trial, as we want to get to know you first and look at photos of your dress and your ideas, and then we’ll make suggestions of what we think will look the most beautiful, suiting your hair ,face shape and personality We’ll explore options with you, showing you what will most suit your dress, and you’ll soon know what you feel comfortable with.
Absolutely.
We will start with minimal make up and build it up to a point where you feel it is exactly right.
We advise brides to wear slightly more than usual so it shows in photos and lasts all day.
However, it is important that your natural beauty is enhanced and that you still look and feel like you.
Yes, most definitely – you do not even have to wear very much as it is all in the specialist application techniques.
We gradually layer your make up, blend and then seal with fine powder. At the end of your Trial we can give you the name of the powder and lipstick we have used so that you can reapply later if you wish.
We have even known some brides to leave their eye make up on the following day since it still looks so good!
Absolutely, many of pour brides report that their hair was perfect the next day and were totally delighted that they did not need to do anything with it.
Our Hairstylists always stay to apply hair accessories and veil if wearing one, and our Makeup artists stay with you as well to do final top ups with lipstick so they can make sure that you are picture perfect when leaving.
Many brides want to have the best-looking skin possible for their wedding. Your makeup artist can advise you how to best achieve this at your trial and she can talk you through what needs to be done and advise you on products.
We highly recommend that you have a Trial as this will give you the chance to meet your personal stylist an or makeup artist to talk about ideas and try out your looks, and you’ll avoid any last-minute anxiety about your finished look.
Trials are organised directly between you and your chosen team.
Don’t worry if you do not have time ,our artists are very experienced so can recreate a look from photos and if you want to have a trial before you come to Ireland and show your team this will give you peace of mind but it is not absolutely necessary.
