Where to begin? Some love it so much they could start their own tutorial channel on YouTube.

Others don’t have a clue. And then there’s everyone in between! So, allow us to shed some light on what really matters when you’re preparing your hair and makeup for a photoshoot.

The first question to ask yourself is: Am I going to hire a hair and/or makeup artist? Or am I going to do it myself?

This decision is a big one, there are many factors to consider; your style, your brand, your budget. Be sure to take all of these things into consideration.

In our experience, professional hair and makeup can DEFINITELY level up a shoot, especially if you’re not very proficient at it yourself.[/fusion_text][fusion_separator style_type=”none” flex_grow=”0″ alignment=”center” border_size=”” sep_color=”” icon=”” icon_size=”” icon_color=”” icon_circle=”” icon_circle_color=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” sticky_display=”normal,sticky” class=”” id=”” top_margin=”20″ /][fusion_separator style_type=”none” flex_grow=”0″ alignment=”center” border_size=”” sep_color=”” icon=”” icon_size=”” icon_color=”” icon_circle=”” icon_circle_color=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” sticky_display=”normal,sticky” class=”” id=”” top_margin=”20″ /][fusion_text columns=”” column_min_width=”” column_spacing=”” rule_style=”default” rule_size=”” rule_color=”” font_size=”” line_height=”” letter_spacing=”” text_color=”” content_alignment_medium=”” content_alignment_small=”” content_alignment=”” animation_type=”” animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_offset=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” sticky_display=”normal,sticky” class=”” id=””]
