Hair & Makeup Artist Advice

View quoted message Reach out once more and then if they don’t respond you need to point out that by them not getting back to you with a time to book the trial they are not upholding their end of the contract and if they do not get back to you in x number of days you will take their lack of response as them failing to uphold their end of the contract and will be taking your business elsewhere.

I would say if you didn't already sign a contract, I would look somewhere else

I would be a little more aggressive and say it is coming up on 4-6 weeks and you need to lock down a trial date.

Give them 2-3 dates and times for your trial and advise them to pick one that works for them.

Maybe it’ll get the point across that they need to light a fire under them and get moving! Granted it was the holiday season but still - they should be in communication with you.

Okay ladies thanks for the advice!

Thanks for the feedback ladies!

Unfortunately, the contract is not in my favour and states I have to pay the full service amount if I cancel less then 3 months. I'll reach out again, I suppose....

I agree with Helene! Check your contract if one is signed, read what it says about when the trial should be done (for instance mine says the trial should be 4-6 before the wedding, theres a lot of break down in times for mine!) I would send them a very forward email that you are getting worried about their commitment to your contract and you need to get things moving and secured asap or you are going to start looking elsewhere!

This would be way too stressful for me. In my opinion, you are not blowing it out of proportion. Check your contract if one is signed and, if you can, move on to someone else who shows they’re committed to you and your wedding day.
Just my 2 cents.
