Mya from Cosmetic Artistry is doing my makeup. I don't have someone for hair yet and I'm starting to worry because my day is just around the corner :(

Where in Queens are you? There is this place called Explosions in Howard Beach- I know a couple of brides who have had their hair done there. They looked great. They are on my list for hair.

I am using Paula from Paula's House of Brides in Ridgewood, I am using Jackie from I Make Up You. I have had trials with both and loved the way I looked.

I used Anna from Explosion too. My BM used a couple other people and they all did a fine job. This is the place that my mom goes to regularly so I used them for my wedding.

I didn't get my makeup done by the person they have there though. She was very nice but later that day my eye makeup ran badly. Also I thought she made my face too pale. I reapplied blush my self throughout the night. I know when I foundthe right makeup person my maeup lasted the entire day and I only had to reapply lipstick.

Re: Queens girls.. Who is doing your hair and makeup for the big day?

I recently started to go to Salon De Ja Vu to get my hair cut and colored. Lori is great! I used to go to Christie's b/c a friend worked there - but they are just too overpriced! I think I am going to hire Linda Palladino to do my hair and makeup. I wanted someone who could do both and the girls on the Knot love her. She is also reasonably priced

I think my hair cost about $100 (I'm not possitve) All my girls got their hair done there as well.

Call for a trial if you want un up-do ask for Glatia (Gla-di-a) She is the best.

Re: Queens girls.. Who is doing your hair and makeup for the big day?

I am getting my hair done by Rose from Saccente Hair Designs in Glendale, Queens. Claudia from Saccente is doing my girls hair.
Both do an excellent job. I have been going there for years and they do not kill you withe the prices. the girls cost 50 and my hair costs 60.

The make-up is being done by Denise of Angel Eyes. She is coming to my house.
