At Jax Mini Sessions Studio in Jacksonville, FL, we believe that a photoshoot is more than just taking pictures—it’s an experience. One way to take your session to the next level is by investing in professional hair and makeup, and that’s where Curl Wink Blush comes in. We’ve created the perfect pairing to ensure your photoshoot is stress-free, luxurious, and unforgettable.

Why Professional Hair and Makeup?

Let’s talk about why professional hair and makeup are game-changers for your photoshoot:

  • Confidence Boost: Professional artists, like the team at Curl Wink Blush, enhance your natural beauty, leaving you feeling confident and radiant.
  • Camera-Ready Glam: Makeup and hair that look stunning in person can sometimes translate differently in photos. Curl Wink Blush knows exactly how to create a look that’s perfect for the camera.
  • Stress-Free Prep: With the cozy prep space at Jax Mini Sessions Studio, you can relax, get pampered, and focus on enjoying your session.

Hair and Makeup Prep Tips

To ensure the best results during your session, here are some key preparation tips:

  • Hair Preparation: Start with clean, dry hair. Lightly prep your hair with your usual styling products, as completely bare hair may not hold curls well or could become frizzy. If frizz is a concern, leave it to the professionals to handle during your session.
  • Textured/Curly Hair: If you’re expecting a smooth style, arrive with your hair already smoothed, as stretching curls can take extra time and may cut into your styling session. For natural curls, style as usual and make sure your hair is completely dry. The team can refresh and enhance your curls to perfection.
  • Skin Preparation: Be sure your face is clean and moisturized. Avoid wearing mascara, tinted moisturizers, or any makeup from the previous day. Your artist will prep your skin as needed, but following your usual skincare routine will help ensure flawless results. If you have specific products you’d like to use, wait to discuss them with your artist before applying.
  • Avoid Last-Minute Treatments: Refrain from trying new skincare treatments, such as peels or waxing, in the week leading up to your session to prevent unexpected reactions.
