    Today I had my hair and makeup trial. Let me start by saying the hair is HORRIBLE! I hate it!!!! I have like a snooky poof and literally a rats nest in the back. I will definately find someone else. This lady didn't seem to know what she was doing. Now onto the makeup, I am in love!!!!!!!! He spent an hour and a half doing my makeup including airbrushing and I looked great!!!!!! Only difference is on the wedding day, I will have individual lashes as well. When I got home I took my hair down and played around with it. In doing so I managed to find a really cute hairstyle for the wedding!!!!! Let me know what you think!!! I think its really pretty swept back on the sides in curls. Wanted to share ladies! Thanks!

    Your makeup looks beautiful (not that you really need it), but I especially love the hairstyle at the end that you found by playing around with it... it is GORGEOUS!

    I love the make up! I actually prefer the first hairstyle on you - I think you pull the volume in the front off well! But I think the back could be more "done" than it was - I hope that makes sense!

    You look so pretty (with makeup and without!). And I like your hair from the trial and when you experimented with it, but I really like the soft/effortless feel of the second style.

    The makeup is great! But I liked your "Snooky poof", lol! The back was a mess though, I'd just ask for another trial and let them know what you did and didn't like about it.

    I think the part in your hair is beautiful, frames your face much nicer than the pouf.

    So pretty! I like the first hairstyle better, it looks beautiful from the front. You could ask your hairstylist to do something different with the back. Maybe doing a loose half up while keeping the poof in the front? I love it though!

    Makeup looks amazing!  Awesome job.  You can tell you're wearing makeup, but it all looks very natural.  I love what you did with the hair on your own!

    @Tswife4ever: I think for your wedding day its good to go a little darker. Plus, you have to remember that the make up will come off throughout the day so starting with a darker look will result in really good make up for right around the time you are having your ceremony and taking pictures!

    Makeup = gorgeous. It's perfect!

    Hair = I kind of agree with some PPs, I liked it with the poof. I think the back could have been executed better and not as messy, but I liked the volume the poof gave you. You can't go wrong either way though, your hair is gorgeous.

    I loved the picture from the front but not the picture from the back. The other pictures were fabulous. 

    You have great skin! I loooove the close up of the eye makeup. I love the makeup and definitely want to recreate eye shadow like yours!

    The makeup looks fantastic and although the first hairstyle wasn't as bad as I had expected, the part at the front of your hair is definitely more flattering!  Good job!  Now you can show that pic to your new hairstylist :)

    i think the darker colors on you look great! It is blended really well and I love how she used a darker color in the crease. If you want to "tone" it down- you could always ask her to use a highlighter on your brow line and/or on the inside V of your eye. Just a lighter color- a very light gold, almost cream color, would work well. But--- I like the make up as it is! Just a suggestion if the colors bug you.

    I really like the first hairstyle better to be honest. Just show him the picture of the back, and tell him you want it to be alot neater, and no stray hairs hanging about. Also, I think the first style, with some nice wispy bangs with a few highlights, accenting your eyes, would be beautiful!!!!

    I love the make up it looks incredible! I quite like the first hairstyle - but it's all up to you and the second hairstyle is nice too - and a lot freer and soft which is good!

    I like the "snookie poof" too. I think that she could have done a better job with the back, but the added drama of the front goes great with your makeup.

    I actually like both hair pictures! I think you wear the poof great as well as the way you pulled it back! I think you should do it how you feel comfortable though because if you hate your hair on your wedding day, trust me it will show!! Good luck with what you decide!!!

    how much does getting a professional to air brush makeup cost? One of BMs is a cosmotologist but she is better with doing hair so i have thought about hiring a pro to do all of our makeup but im pretty low budget.. any suggestions?

    Actually, I do like the first hair style better..  But not the "rats nest".  The front looks nice and elegant, but the back needs to be worked on..   It needs to be tightened up and any loose strands tucked in.  Up to you though, see if you can maybe cover up the part in the second picture if you like it better?  But your pics look great though, makeup done very well!
