1.) History of the hair & makeup artist

• How long have they been working hair and makeup for weddings? 
• Will they still be around for years to come?  
• This could speak to their experience and ability to adapt to trends and a variety of styles. 

2.) Artist Reviews

• How many do they have?
• What do they say?
• Do your homework and read them.  Are they mostly good reviews? Do they call out specific instances that may pertain to your wedding as well? 

3.) Versatility of hair & makeup

• Do all of their styles look the same? 
• Can they vary their styles? 
• Are they able to provide a variety of makeup looks from glam to natural? 
• Will they work with inspiration and have a vision (for those who need some extra help with picking styles) as well?

4.) Availability

• Are they available for your wedding date? 
• How far in advance can and do they book? 
• Are they able to go on location or have a salon to work in (or both)?
• How big is the team?
  1. Can they accommodate your entire wedding party in a timely manner? 
  2. Can they do both hair AND makeup?  This way you don’t have two hire more than one team.      

5.) Diversity for Hair & Makeup

• Are they able to work with different skin tones or a variety of different hair textures?
