So lets just say the hair and makeup trial did not go so well, I won't name where I went because overall they were very nice and could do a good job just not what I personally was looking for.
We are back to square one.
I already got some great recommendations from Everyday Bride, she looked so amazing on her wedding day. If anyone else has suggestions for hair and makeup in the Chicago area please, please comment. I would be so appreciative!
I have already contacted Beauty on Call but thinking they might be booked at this point. Plus, I had ruled them out before due to how expensive it was, now I am thinking it is totally worth it!

Andie Cumber for make-up and Livia Caporale for hair! They're both awesome, they work with the famed Sonia Rosseli. Good luck!
Marla Del Angel! She was in charge of my make-up and I couldn't have been happier. It looked just the same at midnight as when she applied it at 10AM and she couldn't possibly be sweeter. Definitely someone you want to have around you on your wedding day! Her site:

and her email is marlamakesfaces@gmail.com. Tell her I sent you!
Liz with Le Bon Visage will be doing my wedding makeup. She is an esthetician who specializes in facials (she is the best!) and special occasion make-up. http://www.lebonvisage.com. Love your blog!
Oh...this is the part that I dread! I have no idea where to even start looking for a hairdresser for the big day. Hopefully, some friends will have a good suggestion.
Splurge if you have to! I definitely did, but it was so comforting knowing I didn't have to worry about that part of the day at all. I had to splurge to have my hairstylist from college. {She had recently moved to a high-end salon in Indianapolis.}
Good luck with the search!
Would your 'normal' hair stylist be an option? That is what I did and it was helpful as he knew my style and how to work with my hair.
I would be happy to send you my hair stylist if you would like - just let me know!
Melissa at J.Gordon Designs in Lincoln Park! She doesn't do airbrush though, in case you were looking. I've also heard great reviews about Sonia Roselli. Good luck!
Hey Girl!
I will totally make you coat check tags if you want them. Not even kidding you. E-mail me if you really want them!
Also, Beauty on Call was so worth the splurge if you can swing. I wish that I would have sucked it up and had my hair done by them. It would have saved from stress.
I had Roshanda for my makeup and received a ton of compliments.
Did you see that Colleen's makeup lady works cheaper on the side? Maybe she could recommend a hair person too.
I am using Trisha at Sine Qua Non in Lakeview. She is my regular stylist, but also did a recent friend's wedding. She looked fantastic, but still like herself - which can often be a problem with wedding hair. good luck.
