Design HER Image hair and makeup company
Throughout the fifteen years I have been running my wedding planning and design company, A Day Like No Other, I have collaborated with Tiffany on countless wedding projects, and her work was always perfect and flawless – brides, bridesmaids and mothers were glowing and confident at looking their best ever! So Tiffany is certainly one to ask about all things “wedding hair and makeup!”
“How long have you been in business, and what brought you to hair/makeup styling?”
From the vibrant streets of Hong Kong and Taiwan to the glitz of Hollywood, my journey in the world of makeup and fashion has been a dream come true. As a child, alongside my sister, our shared love for fashion and makeup ignited my passion for beauty and style, and it’s evident that my path was always leading me to become a professional makeup and hair artist.
“What is your specific style – natural, elegant, glamorous…?”
Our approach centers on elevating natural beauty with luxurious, bespoke makeup and hair styling, ranging from timeless elegance to a radiant, youthful glow. We meticulously design each look to enhance your unique features, ensuring you look breathtaking in person and every photograph. With a refined, personalized touch, we craft an experience that reflects the sophistication and grace of your special day, leaving you feeling like the most beautiful version of yourself.
“What is your ideal bride/bridesmaid/mother?”
I especially love working with brides who have a sophisticated sense of style and are happy to communicate. If she wants to avoid overly dramatic, artificial, or stiff makeup and hairstyles, she is in the perfect place.
“Are you specializing in a particular technique? If so, why – what is unique about it?”
I am also certified in personal color analysis by a renowned South Korean school that works with K-pop celebrities as a stylist and image consultant. This expertise allows me to select the most flattering shades for your unique complexion, ensuring a radiant, harmonious look. With a cohesive blend of makeup, hair, and wedding gown coordination tailored to your undertone, you’ll achieve a polished, confident beauty that shines both in person and in photos.
“What is the difference between DIY hair/makeup and professional makeup?”
The difference between DIY hair/makeup and professional wedding makeup comes from expertise, longevity, and overall quality.- Wedding makeup isn’t just about looking good in person—it should translate well in professional photography. A skilled artist knows how to balance tones, prevent flashbacks, and create dimension so you look stunning in every shot.
“What is the difference between great and not-so-great hair and makeup?”
A great professional artist understands facial structure, skin type, and personal color analysis, enhancing natural beauty while ensuring your makeup looks perfect in natural light and photography.They are experienced in helping brides look fresh from morning to night, even through tears, sweat, and dancing.
“When choosing a stylist, which questions should a bride ask? What are “red flags” to avoid?”
When choosing a wedding stylist, ask about their bridal experience, trial sessions, long-wear techniques, and how they ensure your makeup looks great in photos. Check if they travel, can accommodate your bridal party, and have a backup plan in emergencies. Red flags include poor communication, lack of portfolio, lack of hygiene, unclear pricing or contracts, and a pushy attitude disregarding your vision. A great stylist should be reliable, skilled, and focused on making you look flawless in person and in photos.
“How much time do you reserve for each service? And do you recommend touch-ups during the wedding day?”
For a bride, I typically reserve 2.5 hours to ensure a relaxed, thorough application of makeup and hair, allowing plenty of time for adjustments and details. I allocate 40 minutes per person for each bridal party member, providing ample time for makeup and hairstyling without feeling rushed. I also recommend daily touch-ups, especially for the bride, to maintain a flawless look. I offer on-site touch-up services, or we provide a small kit ready for any quick fixes as needed.
“Why is professional hair/makeup so expensive?”
Professional makeup and hairstyling is an investment because it ensures a flawless, long-lasting look using high-quality tools and techniques that are difficult to replicate at home. Professionals consider flattering color choices that enhance your natural beauty and adapt to lighting conditions, ensuring you look stunning both in person and in photos. They provide a stress-free, customized experience, taking the pressure off you on your big day and allowing you to relax. A professional creates a harmonious look that suits your undertones and personal style, giving you a polished, elegant result that lasts throughout the event.
“Anything else you’d like to add?”
Yes!
To make the bridal experience even more luxurious, I love to pamper my brides with special touches like essential oils, face masks, massages, and a glowy body oil to add that extra radiance. The process is designed to be relaxing and stress-free, offering a comfortable, pampering atmosphere where brides feel genuinely cared for. I focus on every detail, from perfecting the skin tone to ensuring the hair stays intact, all while ensuring every aspect of the look is flawless for pictures. The entire experience is about creating a serene, luxurious moment that leaves the bride feeling confident and beautiful.
Warm regards,
