We strongly encourage all of our clients to at least secure their date and venue before booking. This helps ensure a smooth booking process, and avoid service reschedules, and cancellations.
Trials are a separate service and completely optional! A trial is not required to secure your booking.
Trials are typically held at Mimi's Home studio in Bristow, VA during the day on Mondays - Thursdays. This is because most of the team is booked Friday - Sundays!
The quality of Hair by Mimi's styling requires the extensions to be 100% human hair. Hair by Mimi recommends purchasing extensions from Bellami.com. There are also additional options available on Mimi's Amazon store. We suggest a minimum of 24" and at least 240 grams of clip in extensions.
Before your event we recommend washing the extensions out of the box with a clarifying shampoo to strip off the factory sheen, gently pat dry with a hand towel, then left to air dry in hair extension provided drying device/hanger/etc. Upon drying, gently brush them out.
