Makeup/Hair HELP!

Hello everyone!

As I have said before in previous posts, I am from Staten Island and my FH is from LI so I don't know that much about the area and could use your help.

I'm having a large bridal party and plan on paying for all to get their hair done because I know I want them all to look the same. However, I don't care as much about the makeup and know not many want to do it. This brings up my dilemma with Oksana, whose work I really like. She has a 3 person minimum and right now I am the only one getting my makeup done. I have read about M*I*A and know that she does not have a minimum. But, does anyone know of any good salons in the Mineola area that would be large enough to handle 10+ girls for a wedding including me that also has a makeup artist on hand that is good and decently priced. Personally, I'm going to spend whatever it takes to look my best on that day, I'm just thinking of everyone else. I'm starting to think that that may be easier than having someone come to the hotel I will be staying at. I am still considering all options, just would like some feedback on any full service salons from the LI/Queens girls in the area.

Also, I know it's really early but I like to do my research :).

TIA!!!

I used Maureen and Claudia Pedala and cant rave enough about them. If you have several girls getting done then their prices are good for more ppl, if its just you then yes can be on the pricey side but you said you dont care about that. They travel to you, they came to my house in Queens the day of and they live in Manhattan. They do charge extra for travelling fee's, which is basically round trip cab fare for them. For me it wasnt bad bc i live close to the midtown tunnel and their apt in the city is just a few blocks away from the midtown tunnel so it was a short trip.
