Domenica and one assistant did great work in making me and my bridesmaids and mother feel beautiful on my wedding day. Prior to the wedding I had my consultation with Domenica at a salon in Fallbrook, which went great! I was happy with my makeu...p and she suggested I get my hair layered before the wedding in order for the curls to last longer. We communicated before the wedding via email and she utilizes Honeybook to create your day of timeline and for payment. We had several issues with Honeybook and with the timeline not being correct.
On the day of the wedding Domenica was suppose to arrive at 7:30 am, however she was an hour late as she arrived around 8:30! The first 2 bridesmaids were suppose to start at 8:15 and instead were started on around 9:00 am! This frustrated me and put the timeline that I had sent to the bridal party behind. Domenica and her assistant were rushing on the final bridesmaid at the end and she was not happy with her hair, which she ended up curling herself at the wedding venue later.
All the girls were very happy with their make-up, however I was very disappointed with our hair. Everyone's curls, including mine, had fallen out within an hour of leaving our hotel and arriving at the venue! My hair in our first-look photos is barely curled and after the ceremony, I had a bridesmaid re-curl my hair. It was a very hot day and we were all sweating, but I feel that a good stylist who does weddings all the time should know what product to use in order to hold a curl for a wedding day!
We were all given a lip kit before leaving the hotel, however there was barely any lipstick in the kit for re-touches! I felt that I as the bride should of been given enough lip color to last me the day.
Overall, Domenica and her assistant were professional, super sweet, and held great conversations as they worked on our hair and make-up. I expected my hair and all the girls' hair to hold all day for the price that we had paid.
