Hair/makeup artist...willing to work for bartering?!

Ok so I have my boduoir pics in April on a Sundy morning. Its in NYC. I was going to use the girl who did my hair/makeup day of our wedding but she never returns calls.

I will start off by saying I don't have much moola right now due to some IRL issues, but I already booked a whiel back and didnt want to be a b*tch and cancel on them when their time and space is limited to begin with and I have set aside that cash for Fedali.

Anywho, I don't have much $$$$ But I DO HAVE skills to barter with!

I am a graphic artist as some girls know, and do alot of STDS, thank you cards, album layouts etc. SOOO...if you think we could work out a deal, please let me know! Going back to the days of the colonists with sharing what ya got lol; one skill for another! TIA!

I have that kind of hair that is IN BETWEEN straight and slightly wavy.... if i let it dry on its own (which i usually do b/c im lazy) it looks like a perm brushed out... but my hair will do whatever you want to it, so it doesn't take long to starighten it.

i HATE the length... i want to chop it all off... I'm MUCH better working with shorter hair b/c I've had short hair most of my life.

You should cut it then. why make yourself nust especially with a lil' guy. Does your DH prefer it long? Luckily, mine doesnt mind it short cause I have never had it super long while we've beend ating. Longest was for the wedding and after but otherwise varying degrees of short.

My hair is like yours-i blow dry it with my fingers-never use a brush. I am not that talented lol so I go for cuts that are heavy on the layers and short on time!

It was this length when we met and longer before i chopped off 10+ inches and donated it.

he HATED my hair short and made me promise never to cut it again... but it wasnt the best hair cut and i agreed. I wanted it even SHORTER...

I may just do it this summer though. he'll get used to it

I liked it from the pictures you posted-highlights your features i think but boys are weird like that. I once had it waaay too short-I did look like a boy so DH doesnt like that but he likes shorter around my chin length. he really liked it now because its asymetrical so the sides are longer and angled giving the illusions ts a lot longer than it really is in the back.

Do you layer your hair? I find that helps with my thickness; keeps me from looking like a muppet lol.

I thought of her but I didnt want to put her on the spot because she got married in 2006 and she has her albums done by one of the amazing photographers out there so I felt funny.

But Thanks!
