One person can get a bride and her two closest companions ready without rushing. Beyond that, the morning hours start to run short.
The weddings that call for a hair and makeup team
A team is advisable for large weddings, celebrity weddings and those with high demands, because many people get ready or the timings are very tight. As a guide, when other guests get ready besides you and your two companions, one team member is added for every three.
How the work is shared across the hair and makeup team
With a team, the work is shared and done at the same time. I look after you, and each professional looks after their guests from start to finish, makeup and hair, in the style decided at the trial. Everything follows a written work plan, so each person knows from the start who will get them ready and at what time.
Why a team lets the morning start at a reasonable hour
If one person had to prepare eight, the morning would start before dawn. With the work shared, the timings do not stretch, and the wedding morning can begin at a reasonable hour, without anyone having to get up excessively early. For you, that means arriving rested at a day that will be very long.
