Smile Hair and make up (ROR)?

Hi does anyone know if there is someone on site at Riu ocho rios who can do my hair and make up on the day ? My friend was going to do it for me but she has fell pregnant and won't be going, so now I'm panicking.

Renova spa provides hair and makeup services and is located on site. I can't find all the information, but its on here if you search.

Here is their price list but I think its for Negril, not ROR. Should be similar though:

I had my hair and make up done at Renova Spa. The girls there were fantastic. Bring along a picture of how you would like your hair done and I would recommend bringing your own make up like foundation and mascara and have them apply it for you. They have a lot of make up there and use disposable brushes when possible. Oh, and if you plan on having flowers in your hair, don't forget to order them through Chandlyn in your planning session!

Hiya!

How far in advance did you book your appointment for your wedding day? Is there someone specific you used or can recommend?

Hi

I booked my appointment about 3 mths. or so. When you book it online you get 5% off and you have to pay 50% thru Paypal

as one of the other girls on here mentioned I took a pic with me to show them how i wanted it to look

I didn't book my appt until I got there. I made sure that I did it on the day that I arrived just in case they were booked, but they weren't. My MOH went there with me the day of the wedding & they were able to also do my FG's hair with no problems.

I booked my appointment when I got confirmation of our wedding which was about 4 months in advance. As far as requesting a certain individual to do your hair and makeup, well, i'm not sure you can. The spa is pretty small and I'm not sure how many girls actually work there. I believe the name of the girl that did our hair and makeup was Nicole and Karine did our manicure/pedicure.

Hi,
We purchased the Caprice Wedding package which includes hairstyle for the bride. Does that automatically mean they book the appointment for you? Does anyone know?

I am doing a hair trial here with my hairdresser (and taking a bunch of pics) and then going for a fitting of my dress to see if it looks good.
I will have the ladies in Jamaica try to copy what she did :)
I think it should work out fine.
Might book my appt before leaving for Jamaica though.
