Appease Inc. has offered hair and makeup since 2003. Its work centers on weddings, though it also books bridal showers, engagement parties, birthday parties, proms and photoshoots. Services are delivered where the client is, whether that is a home, hotel, workplace or set, and the business also has studio locations in Addison and Highwood, Illinois.
Stylists are sorted into three levels. Standard stylists have one to two years of experience and are usually recent graduates of beauty or makeup school; they offer traditional makeup only, without lash or airbrush upgrades. Platinum stylists have three to five years of experience and are the recommended level for updos, half-up styles, textured hair and hair extensions. Celebrity stylists have five to ten years of experience in bridal work and, or, with celebrities, runway, media and print, and they can be requested for vegan or organic products.
Trial runs are offered with hair and makeup and can take place at the Addison or Highwood studio, at the North Shore Studio, or at a destination wedding location. The North Shore Studio can also be rented on a wedding day as a place to get ready. Bookings carry a non-refundable reservation fee that is applied to services, and a minimum service charge of $250 applies, excluding gratuity and discounts. A 20 percent gratuity on regular rates is added at final payment, due two weeks before the wedding.
Wedding party rates are flat regardless of stylist level, and the party receives the same level as the bride. Junior bridesmaid and flower girl rates are set by age. The business describes itself as multi-award-winning and says it won a Couples Choice Award on WeddingWire, was named to The Knot's Best of Weddings Hall of Fame, and has been featured in Chicago Style Weddings, Grace Ormonde and Modern Luxury Bride.
Work is done on location, and the stylist level is matched to the style and the day, from traditional makeup at the Standard level up to the Celebrity level.
