Read reviews to ensure past clients received quality service from the artist. Lastly, ensure the artist’s portfolio reflects a clientele that is diverse in age, skin tone and style.
  2. Have a vision. Take some time to gather inspiration photos. Choose looks that will complement your skin tone, hairstyle, outfit, and venue.
