The short answer
The Junction sits between the city and the surf, and the brides here usually know exactly what they want. Bellus brings hair and makeup to the house or the apartment, so the look can be built without anyone leaving the neighbourhood. The Junction is inside the free travel zone, and the whole look is agreed at the trial well before the wedding morning.

Amanda's professionalism and attention to detail is amazing! I have never felt more beautiful as I did on my wedding day! I did trials with other hair and make up artists but was so happy with Amanda's ability to naturally get the exact look I wanted was amazing!
★★★★★
What can I say... Amanda is absolutely amazing with what she can do. I have never felt or looked more beautiful than I did on my wedding day, and my husband couldn’t agree more. My hair and make up stayed in place for the entire day, as did my mothers and bridesmaids. We were all so impressed.. Amanda went above and beyond to ensure that we all felt comfortable on the day & it was so lovely to have her with us as we were all getting ready. I could not speak more highly of Amanda and would recommend her to anyone..

The Junction questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does hair and makeup cost for a wedding in The Junction?
The Junction is inside my free travel zone, so no fee is added for the drive. The bride is $320, made up of $160 for hair and $160 for makeup. Bridesmaids are $150 a service, mothers of the bride and groom are $130 for makeup, and flower girls start at $60. If the bridal party is a large one, the extra stylists come at no cost to you. Trials are $150 each and a $300 deposit holds the date.
I have a lot of bridesmaids, how do you manage a large party?
For larger bridal parties I will bring along extra talented stylists as required and at no extra cost to you. I will co-ordinate the morning with my team and I will look after all Bride services personally.
Do you do both the hair and makeup for the whole party, or just the bride?
I do both hair and makeup for whoever is included in the booking - bride, bridesmaids, mothers, flower girls. Just let me know the full headcount when you enquire.
What if I'm not sure exactly what look I want yet?
That's what the trial is for. We can explore different directions, try a few options and land on something you love. You don't need to arrive at the trial with all the answers, just some ideas and an open mind.
