Many gay and lesbian wedding makeup artists have extensive online profiles showcasing their work in photos and videos. At this stage, look for the best in business, not necessarily for professionals in your geographic area.

Check their social media profiles, watch their makeup lessons and makeup tutorials. It will allow you to learn about your artist as a professional and as a person. Check which hair and makeup products, and beauty brands they use.

Start a Conversation

So, if you’ve got two or three LGBT wedding hair salons in your area that you like, it’s time to start a conversation. At this stage it’s key to understand that your personality clicks.

By now you’re familiar with their style and determined that it rhymes with yours. It’s time to talk about the details: date, time and location.

Ask your vendor about the date and time availability. Do they have a team that can service both partners at the same time? What about your entire bridal party? Or can they only service one partner at a time?

Location of your trans friendly makeup artist is important. If they’re located downtown and your wedding venue is outside of the city, it may be tricky to go there and back during rush hour. Many individual LGBTQ makeup artists will come to your location. Make sure to ask about it.
