Professional Bridal Trial Photography
After your trial at our studio, you will know how your makeup and hair looks and feels in person, but what will it look like in your wedding photos?
Bridal trial photos are emailed same day. We offer professional photography at our bridal trials so you can see high resolution pictures of your makeup with consistent, even lighting. You can clearly see all angles of your hair design in color and black and white.
Our wedding trial photos allow you preview your wedding day look on film and make any necessary changes before your bid day – we hope that it gives you peace of mind before your big day.
Photos are also sent in black and white. Preview your look before your big day! Along with our detailed notes we compile after your trial, we always arrive with the photos of your trial for reference on your wedding day, ensuring that you receive the exact look you approved for the trial.

Bridal Makeup and Hair for Pre-Wedding Photos
While the Bay to Breakers was taking place right outside our studio, we had a blast with Veena for her pre-wedding makeup and hair for her photo session at the Civic Center! Thank you Veena!

We love clean.
Calm, relaxing bridal trials at our studio in Union Square. An important part of any professional training will focus on cleanliness, so when choosing your beauty vendor, make sure that your artist uses these best practices too. Below are some of the techniques we use to maintain the highest level of cleanliness with our clients.
How is Triple Twist different?
We make you look your best while maintaining the highest standard for cleanliness. We only use professional makeup and hair products, purchased at professional outlets that require business licenses and permits. We use products from Shu Uemura, Chanel, Dior, Make-up Designory, Ben Nye, M-A-C, to list a few.
We take cleanliness very seriously, and follow strict guidelines when it comes to maintaining clean equipment and a clean environment.
Triple Twist applies the best makeup industry techniques and practices for cleanliness. Cleaning Makeup Brushes
At Triple Twist we clean and dry all of our brushes with safe professional brush cleaner after every client. After a thorough cleaning, we allow the brushes to dry horizontally for 24 hours.
We have multiple sets of our brushes, so there is always a disinfected, dry brush for every client.
Applying Lipstick
All lipstick is taken from the original packaging and applied to a clean Ben Nye palette. Lipstick and gloss are placed on the palette, then applied with a cleaned brush.
This palette is cleaned with 99% isopropyl alcohol before and after each use. This method prevents transfer of product between clients.
We use palettes to eliminate transfer of product between clients. Pads and Puffs
The sponges, pads and puffs that we use in our sessions are used once per client. You are welcome to take the puffs home after your trial, otherwise they are disposed of. They are also great for quick touch-ups throughout the day on your wedding, as they contain your custom foundation color.
Everything Else?
Curling irons, flat irons, combs, and all other equipment are disinfected after each use, and our studio is cleaned daily by a maintenance crew. The studio hair is cleaned eight times per hour with a professional HEPA air purifier. I hope this helps answer some questions that you should have about cleanliness with your makeup and hair artist! Triple Twist’s ‘clean techniques’ are industry standard in Hollywood. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at 888-865-6960 or email at [email protected]. Thanks!
