​ Celebrity, bridal & editorial makeup and hair styling service to bring your vision to life. 

We recommend booking 6 to 12 months ahead, especially for weddings during peak season (October to December and around Lunar New Year). Popular wedding dates fill up quickly, and Ka Lam personally handles a limited number of weddings each month to ensure quality and availability on the day. For destination weddings or overseas bookings, we suggest reaching out 9 to 12 months in advance to allow time for travel planning.

Yes, a trial is strongly recommended and included in most of our bridal packages. The trial allows us to understand your skin type, preferences, gown, venue lighting, and the overall mood you want for your wedding day. It's also the best opportunity for open communication between you and your makeup artist, so there are no surprises on the big day.

Kalamakeup is based in Central, Hong Kong (Room 101, Ivy House, 18-20 Wyndham Street), and is available to book for bridal makeup and hair styling both at our studio and on-location across Hong Kong. [Book a free consultation] to check availability for your date.

You can book a free consultation or trial directly through our contact page, by phone, or by email. We'll ask about your event date, location, and the look you have in mind, then confirm availability and next steps. Many overseas clients book their trial via video call before flying to Hong Kong, with an in-person trial scheduled closer to the wedding date.

During the trial, Ka Lam or a senior member of her team will discuss your vision, skin concerns, and event details, then create a full makeup and hair look based on what you share. You're welcome to bring photos of looks you like, your gown or a swatch, and any reference inspiration. The trial usually takes 1.5 to 2 hours.

Yes. The trial exists so we can adjust before the actual event. If anything doesn't feel right, whether it's the eye makeup intensity, hair style, or overall tone, we'll refine it together until you're confident in the look.

Yes. Ka Lam and her team regularly travel for destination weddings and overseas fashion or bridal bookings. We coordinate travel, accommodation, and on-location logistics as part of the planning process so you can focus on your wedding.

Destination wedding pricing includes the service package plus travel costs such as flights, accommodation, and ground transportation for the makeup and hair team. We provide a full, itemised quote once we know your wedding location and number of people requiring services, so there are no surprises.

For destination weddings, we recommend booking at least 9 to 12 months in advance. This gives enough time to plan travel, confirm flights and accommodation, and schedule a trial, either in person during a visit to Hong Kong or via video consultation.

Yes. Many of our international clients start with a video consultation to discuss their vision, skin tone, and event details. We then schedule an in-person trial once you arrive in Hong Kong, or coordinate the full look remotely if travel timing doesn't allow for an in-person session beforehand.

International clients should reach out as early as possible with their wedding date and location, since travel scheduling requires more lead time than local bookings. We're happy to communicate by email or video call across time zones, and we provide clear package and travel cost breakdowns upfront so you can plan your budget with confidence.

Pricing depends on the package you choose, including the number of looks, whether hair styling is included, and whether the service is for one person or a full bridal party. We offer different packages to suit different wedding styles, from a single application to multiple looks and changes throughout the day. Contact us for a personalised quote based on your wedding plans.

Yes. Many of our bridal clients book additional services for bridesmaids, mothers, and other members of the wedding party. Let us know your group size when you reach out and we'll recommend the right package.

Yes, a holiday surcharge may apply for weddings booked on public holidays or peak wedding dates. This will always be communicated clearly in your quote before you confirm booking, with no hidden fees.

Wedding day makeup and hair styling typically takes around 2 to 2.5 hours per look, depending on complexity. Multi-look packages, which include a change of makeup or hairstyle partway through the day (for example, between ceremony and reception), will take additional time. We'll confirm a full timeline with you in advance so everything runs smoothly on the day.

We offer one-on-one and group makeup classes, taught in English or Cantonese, from our Central studio. Classes run across a 2-session syllabus, covering everyday natural looks through to evening glamour, tailored to your face shape and skin type.
