FAQ

How far ahead can I book your services? Can I book a pre-wedding makeup/hair preview?

You can book us a year or more in advance with a signed agreement and 50% deposit. We can then schedule your beauty preview 2-4 months before the event. Previews take place at our studio on evenings and select Saturdays. We will always work to accommodate your schedule, and we understand that you may be traveling into the city for event appointments.

Do I have to schedule a bridal preview for my hair or makeup?

No, you are not required to schedule a preview session. We do advise clients to book a preview with one of our beauty artists so you can perfect your wedding day look. SB Beauty offers complimentary phone consultations to discuss your vision and schedule your preview.

How can I prep for my bridal preview?

To make the preview process as seamless as possible, please bring:

  • A photo or two of your stunning dress
  • Several inspiration images of makeup and hairstyles you like
  • Any hair accessories you’d like to incorporate into your look

For best beauty outcomes, please observe the following:

  • Arrive with clean, dry hair
  • We are happy to remove your makeup from the day
  • Kindly discontinue use of retinols for 3 days prior to the preview

Will I have the same artist on my wedding day as I do for my preview?

Before we book your preview date with SB Beauty artists, we confirm they are also available for your wedding day or weekend.

I’d like to know more about my bridal beauty timeline. How does it work?

Once we have the necessary details—including number of attendants, and photo and ceremony schedule—we create the timeline for you. Working closely with your wedding planner, we assemble a detailed and flexible agenda that accounts for last-minute changes, guest lateness, interruptions, and unforeseen speed bumps.

Do you have timing recommendations for facials, waxing, and spray tanning?

We suggest getting your eyebrows tweezed, waxed or threaded no later than four days prior to your wedding. For facials, we recommend getting a light “glow and go” facial with no extractions about a week in advance of the event.

Our makeup artists can color-match your foundation to your skin tone, so you don’t need to worry about a spray tan matching your face.

Sharon Becker did my hair and makeup (and hair and makeup for my mom and bridesmaid) at my Spring 2014 wedding. We all looked great, and I loved the way I Iooked–fresh and pretty, but my makeup stayed in place for hours without looking overdone or feeling sticky; plus Sharon is fab to work with–calm and fun and flexible.

Sharon Becker, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts for the amazing job on my hair and makeup on our elopement to NYC in September. I truly felt beautiful by the time you had finished with me and was so thrilled with the natural, elegant style you created for me.  Denise & Scott xx

Sharon, thank you SO much for making myself and the wedding party look absolutely stunning. (and for making me beautiful after I cried) Please let Chelsea and your team know what an amazing job they did. Myself and the bridesmaids looked and felt gorgeous on my wedding day! You are the BEST and I will be sure to recommend you to all my friends and coworkers!

Sharon is talented, organized, patient, hard-working, and calm; she listens carefully to her clients, executes any desired look perfectly, and does an all-around incredible job. I could not have felt more beautiful on my wedding day, and that is largely thanks to Sharon’s exquisite work. My six bridesmaids and all of my family members adored working with Sharon as well… I could not recommend Sharon more highly!
