XP: SOS! On site hair/makeup for August 6th?
I posted this on the Knot (hadn't been there in aaaaages) but thought someone here might have an idea as well!
My sister's BFF is getting married August 6th and her hair/makeup people JUST cancelled on her via text message! (Rude!!)
Are there any on-site hair/makeup people you'd recommend calling??
Any help appreciated!! Thanks!!!

Re: XP: SOS! On site hair/makeup for August 6th?
I don't have any recs, sorry. I would think that for the right price many salons would send someone out.
Quick Google search: http://www.mytwincitieswedding.com/makeup. It looks like a few of them list on site as a basic, so hopefully your sis won't have too much trouble (assuming she is here in the cities)
I never used them but I've heard good things about Smart and Chic.

My sister is the maid of honor so she's trying to help as much as she can to find someone. The wedding is in the Twin Cities. I will forward that link!
Thanks!
That picture about sums up my reaction!! She was supposed to have her trial today at 1:00 and they texted right before to cancel everything. And her bachelorette party is tonight so I hope she isn't too stressed to enjoy it. :-(
SUCKY.
Wow. Horrible. Are they a well known company or a company that's just starting out? I hope she complains ... but not until AFTER she enjoys her BP! :-)

I have never heard of them but that doesn't mean much. Some Googling shows a listing on a wedding directory site but no actual website.
I just talked to my sister and she said they overbooked!! That is horrible business practice since it is something you bring on yourself and have complete control over!
Smart and Chic Bride did an amazing job for my wedding. They just won a MN Bride award for best hair/makeup.

They do get booked pretty far in advance, but maybe they had a cancelation. You can give them a shot.
That's crazy, Kiz. I used Jamie Mikkelson from the Hair District for my wedding. She just did my makeup but I think she does hair too or could recruit someone to do it. http://www.thehairdistrict.com/hd_edina/jamie_mikkelson.asp
I googled Jamie and she did this bride's make-up and her hair distric colleague did the hair

Thanks!! I forwarded the info!!
My fingers are crossed that someone cancelled somewhere and there is an opening!
The company that did my make up is called SMOOCH. You can find them on FB at

She has done weddings for numerous friends of mine and also works with a salon to do hair. They travel to you and the make up prices are very reasonable (she uses all high end products).
We used them for our wedding. They were the first name I passed along. :-)
This is who I used for my wedding. She does onsite makeup/hair. http://www.nicolefae.com/NicoleFae/Open.html
She does Brittani Sensors makeup and hair (if that floats your boat:))

one of my HS friends and current neighbors does bridal make up. I'm not 100% sure she does on site though. I'm also fairly certain that if she doesn't do hair, she has people she works with for that.

My bff used Kai Salon in Champlin. They came and did hair and makeup at our Hotel. They did a great job!

I used to work with Chris, the photographer that works with her at Studio 510. I was trying to figure out why her name sounded familiar. I love all of the stuff they post- her make up is fantastic.
