Makeup By BIA

Makeup By BIA is a bridal and celebrity makeup business based in Dallas, Texas. The business works in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and travels for weddings and events worldwide, including destination weddings. The business describes its style as luxury glam for memorable occasions.

Makeup and hair services cover bridal makeup, celebrity makeup, party makeup, editorial work, corporate event makeup and hair styling. Bridal looks combine South Asian and Western styles. Hair options include bridal updos, half-up styles, Hollywood waves, and traditional South Asian settings with a dupatta or veil. Traditional settings with a heavy dupatta and crown are offered to brides only. Makeup-only bookings do not include dupatta or jewelry styling, and hair styling is timed separately and set out in the booking proposal.

Makeup-only services are available for the bride and her bridal party. In-studio makeup trials are offered on weekdays. A standard bridal trial takes about 2 to 3 hours and covers skin preparation, trial preferences, outfit and jewelry pairings, and lash testing. On-location services for brides on the wedding day can take place at a hotel suite, venue or home. Travel within the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex is priced by mileage, and parking and valet fees are billed to the client.

Destination bookings, both domestic and international, use a tiered package. It includes client-funded flights, airport transfers, a standard baggage allowance and hotel accommodations. To start, clients send an inquiry with the event type, dates, number of people, whether makeup, hair or both are needed, the ready time, and whether getting ready is in the studio or on location. The inquiry does not confirm a booking. Pricing is sent once availability on the wedding date is confirmed, followed by a call and a customized contract.

Each booking is shaped around the client, blending South Asian and Western bridal styles where requested.
