TIMINGS AT BOOKINGS:
Time management is of the essence with any makeup and or hairstyling appointment with The Makeup Ladies to ensure the completion of the requested services at the stipulated end time, therefore adherence to appointment times is critical in ensuring that we, The Makeup Ladies deliver the requested service/s you expect. Therefore, when making appointment times please note that these times will be strictly adhered to. Should unforeseen circumstances arise, the onus is on the bride to advise The Makeup Ladies as soon as practicable. The Makeup Ladies is not responsible if desired completion time is not met due to the client or bridal party members causing delays, such as late arrivals of clients/bridal party, coffee/food/smoking breaks, breastfeeding time allowances whilst a service is being performed. Extra time fees may be applicable. These will be charged at $25.00 per 15-minute increment over and above the stipulated finish time.

Should the number of services (Makeup and or hairstyling) required change (i.e decreased amount of makeup and or hairstyling services required on the day of the appointment) after you have made a final payment you the client will still be charged for those services requested at the booking.
This is based on losses suffered by us in reserving the date and times required to fulfill your original booking requests based on the number and types of services to be performed.
Should you need to alter/change your requested appointment start and or finish time, once you have made a final payment to secure your appointment with The Makeup Ladies, and either Ashley, Maria or another subcontracting artist is not able to fulfill your requested time change due to another appointment/s / commitment/s clashing with the new requested start or finish time, you may still be charged for the services that are not able to be supplied/performed at the appointment.
Refunds for any services which are not rendered at the time of the appointment will be considered on a case-by-case situation, however, will be solely at the discretion of The Makeup Ladies, based on the time of when the cancellation was given and or the unique circumstances that arise due to the need of the cancellation/s.
ADDITIONAL SERVICES REQUIRED (Day of booking):
i.e. Extra people wanting makeup and or hair styling services
If any additional people require makeup and or hairstyling services on the day of the appointment but have not been included in the original booking/invoice issued, this is not normally a problem, and payment can be made via cash or bank transfer to The Makeup Ladies at the appointment. Please, where possible give The Makeup Ladies / subcontracting stylists prior notice if others at the booking are after further styling so that we can prepare and adjust the timings associated, if possible. Depending on the allocated time of the appointment, this may not be always possible and please respect The Makeup Ladies’ decision to decline if this is the case, especially for a bridal or group booking.
