[steph]

Thanks for the info as well. did anyone get their hair & makeup done at their hotel? I just wanted to see how those turned out. I was not sure how these places compared to hotels here(texas).

 

Thanks ladies!

Hi Steph,

 

It all depends on the stylist and your hotel location. If the stylist is freelance (e.g. Doranna), he/she will be traveling to your hotel or the location where you will be getting ready for your big day. However, if your hotel is at a very convenient location (e.g. La Tortuga off 10th Avenue & Calle 14), there are 6 salons within walking distance that will provide wedding day hair styling services and also makeup/manicure/pedicure as well. I will post the names of these salons later this evening.

San Fran Sarah, does Doranna have a website? I'm looking for a mua in the Cancun/PDC area. Thanks!

[San Fran Sarah]

No, she doesn't have a website but you can email her at [email protected] and she will send you pics of weddings she has done. I will be having my hair done by her next week so I can also let you know how it goes!

Hi girls ~ I know a couple of you have asked about Doranna so I wanted to share the pics she provided to my wedding coordinator who met with her in February. My WC was also able to arrange discounted pricing because I have at least 10 girls that would be having hair and makeup done. I don’t like to post prices on the forum because they change so often, so if you’re interested feel free to PM me!

 

From what I was told Doranna has a girl that does the makeup, and she apparently uses high-end stuff from Italy. Also, important to add that Doranna told my WC she has not had a lot of experience with ethnic hair, but did not say she couldn't do it. Nevertheless, that was a concern for me because I have 3 African-American BMs and FI's mom. So that’s something to think about for brides/BMs with textured hair.

 

All her work looks beautiful and she is really talented, but yes she is pricey. Just as an FYI, I decided not to use her because I am bringing my own stylist who offered me a great deal that is actually costing me less. But I have no doubt Doranna is probably one of the best in the area and would have went with her otherwise!

 

So here are the pics, her work looks great!

Wow, I love these pictures! Found my hair inspiration! Thank you!

We met with Doranna during our scouting trip and she definitely is very passionate about hairdos. My fiance and I both thought she has a pretty cool personality.

 

Now that she has a partner that loves to do makeup, she only does hair for the bride and the wedding party. Yes, she is pricey but I am confident she does great work based on what I saw.

Please let us know how it goes! I am excited for you!
