To find out about the different pre-bridal packages in India, we talked to many makeup salons which offer customised pre-bridal packages in India. Generally, these packages begin at least six months ahead of the wedding, though some brides-to-be start with their skincare treatments three months ahead of their D-day.
They offer specific skincare treatments, apart from general hygiene solutions. Here is what you can get from the following skincare chains:
1. Facial Treatments:
Here, we are talking about treatments beyond simple facials, cleanups, scrubs and masks. “Most brides start their treatment at least 3-4 months prior to their wedding day, in order to target issues like acne scarring, hair reduction, weight reduction and hair rejuvenation. More often than not, brides approach us only weeks before their wedding, and we are happy to provide glow facials, peels and photo-facial treatmentsto the bride,” adds Dr. Hina.
2. Customised Pre-Bridal Packages:
Stylebysonam provide services with 4 customised pre-bridal packages with the choicest of services – The Au Natural Bride, The Silver Splendour Bride, The Dazzling Gold Bride and The Exotic Diamond Bride.
“These packages include one session each of a facial, waxing, manicure, pedicure, skin re-surfacer, threading, bleach, body glow service and a hair makeover with our senior stylist, along with a deep-conditioning hair spa. These pre-bridal packages start at Rs. 6,999 onwards, and can be taken in multiple settings, based on the time the bride has in hand. We recommend one in every 15 days with a minimum of 4 sessions to achieve the perfect bridal glow,” Supriya
3. Bridal Makeup:
You can also opt for just a Bridal Makeup sitting (for the wedding day, other functions et al).
“We have different types of bridal makeup options available at our centres ranging from hand-crafted makeup to hi-definition airbrush makeup. Bridal makeup starts at Rs.4999 and can go up to Rs. 29,999,”
Ideally, a bridal makeup takes about 2.5 hours. All skincare and grooming regimes usually vary from 45 minutes to 1.5 hours. Some of these regimes can be done in parallel.
How to Choose A Pre-Bridal Makeup Package
Before you choose to glance through pre-bridal makeup packages that are available, keep these pointers in mind:
- Always opt for a salon recommended by a friend or a family member.
- Try looking at different bridal images to understand what their makeup artists have to offer. If possible, request for a trial makeup session.
- Keep your eyes open – especially about the hygiene level of the salon.
- Look at the cost compared to the services provided.
Finally, a word of advice. “We do not recommend taking any skin care treatments or grooming services on the Wedding day. All pre-bridal services should ideally be completed 3-4 days prior to the wedding day; especially manicure and pedicure, since Mehndi is an integral part of all weddings” .
Now that you know the different bridal services or procedures a bride can get, choose the perfect package and look your best…
