Im going to Pakistan from the UK for my wedding, which will take place in July/August inshallah. i live in Dina, Jhelum and i was wondering if anyone has experienced any of the beauty salons around this area. i have read the threads looking for help on beauty salons but they just seem to cover the major cities with no mention of Dina or Jhelum .
can anyone suggest any good beauticians in Dina or Jhelum that dont do the typical ‘ghostly’ looks?
i have read about all the beauty salons in Islamabad, Lahore etc. but it would mean travelling 4 hrs to Lahore to get my make up/hair done or 2 hrs to Islamabad. by the time i get home the make up would have melted in the boiling heat.
Does anyone know if any of the beauticians are willing to travel to the bride’s house?
It's better if you contact sum1 who live in that area, You don't have any friend out there ..?. And yes beauticians are willing to travel to the bride's house.... But they may charge you sum extra.
Hey everyone!! thanx for the advice and everything.
i've got rellies in Pakistan but they don't really know what we like especially when it comes to the powder/foundation whatever they call it. when you tell them to stop thats enough, they're like what!!! no it isn't. no1 listens over there.:(
Muslim_Queen u PM'd me i cant reply to ur PM cos im a new member. i wanted to know if Baby was from Dina or Jhelum? if i know where she's from then i can ask around. i would really appreciate if you gave me a reply. thanx for ur help. :)
how about taking your own makeup with you and asking the makeup artist to use it?
this way, you make sure it matches your skin tone and complements you, you don't have to rely on their makeup supply, you'll love the colours and if there are any touchups required, you can easily make them yourself cos you'll have your supplies right there. personally, im anal about these things, so it seems good from a hygiene point of view as well :p
and before you go, maybe pay a visit to the local Mac counter and ask them for a lesson in applying your own bridal makeup? just as a backup and so when you're fully made up, you can see if its done properly, or if theres less/more touching up/toning down needed and do it yourself. its always good to be in control of these situations. Mac in Canada are really good and I believe its about $40 for a lesson but its well worth it if it gives you peace of mind! you could also contact local UK makeup artists and ask for a lesson from them. Or, if your budget allows it, fly them in with you, set them up with your fam during the wedding, they can do your bridesmaides, moms, and you, and then you're really set with the whole thing. im sure they'd love the experience as well!
also, pictures! take pictures with you of bridal makeup you love. visual aids will go a long, long way in conveying what you want.
good to see some one here from dina, me also from dina n yah got married there.
I know its very hard when u hear all of these gud beaty parlours in islamabad n lahore but it very hard to go there on that day.
My wedding was also in august. (extreme hot weather)
No never ever go to any beautition from dina they will make u pestry,
I been to kushboo for the wax menicure n pedicure but for the wedding day makeup i got it done from jhelum. it was very hard for me to go to parlour so i made her come to my place she charge me double.
there are few good ones in jhelum. like Morning glory, beauty spot, mehwish. i got mine done from beauty spot, the beautation's name was tehmina n she did her diploma (or what ever) from diplax.
If u need anyother help feel free to ask me, i know every little bit about DINA.:)
thank god theres 1 person who's from Dina :) i wanted to know, did the beautician (tehmina) know what she was doing, did she listen to what u wanted? if u dont mind cud i see some of ur wedding pix just so i can see how she did the make up. its no problem if u dont want to.
did u book a hall? my cousin owns a wedding hall in dina, so we'll probably use that but just wanted to know of any other alternatives.
did u have a wedding organiser/planner? or did u do everything urself?
by the way, where r u from in Dina?
lol think ive asked2 many questions think i should stop now.
Sorry couldn't answer to ur post b4, i was away,
to answer ur questions:
Hmm yah that beautation knew what she was doin, actually i was so nerves n i was keep telling her do this n do that but then she said okay if u don't like what i am doin just don't pay me anything but after she was done n i saw in tha mirrior she did realy good job.
Hmm i don't have any pics here, but when u go to pakistan just go to different salons n ask for the albums they do have them, maybe u like some other better.
This aplander lady salon is so famous these dayz, that makeup look so good in pics, u could just take a trip to jhelum.
yah we actually had function at jhelum club. but walima was at tulip. when u get there u'll know its really good. on the bank of jhelum river and the decorations was quite good. dina halls were small. ur cousin own a hall? whats the name? I been to the alkousar n iqbal on my cousin's wedding, they were so small.
No i had no planner/organizer, just my brothers n uncles n cosions did it.
I am not exactly from dine its near Rohtas fort.
r u from mirpur? have you been to pakistan before? i mean lately?
U can ask anyother question,
N good luck
i went to Pakistan in July 2005, my aunt and uncles wedding.
cousins hall is somewhere opposite Al Kausar.its alot better that it was before :) hes known as Bhola dont know what his real name is.
we went to Rohtas Fort before sunset and it was beautiful :)
i dont think we're from Mirpur my dads from Siyah (dont know how to spell it) im not sure if thats in Mirpur or close to it.but we've lived in Dina for quite a while now :)
we went to Tulip at night and it does look beautiful, that night we saw Owais Raza Qadri. anyways, we're not getting our make up done from Dina. and we're going to try them out before the actual wedding.
i feel as if i know u 2
u are like my two cousin sisters
all the weedings i went to in pakistan they did the same thing!!
tulip is the best hall in jhelum( the staff in tulip are abit pervy)
my mum and sister got ready in mevish
I would recommend Splender in Jhelum. The owner used to work in Lahore before she came to Jhelum. She is really good in doing makeup. They have their own photographer who takes really awsome pics right after ur done with putting ur makeup on. I strongly recommend it. Good luck with planning the wedding .May u have a great marriage:)
another question i have, does anyone know wher u can buy
Unze style wedding slippers/sandals?
i was going to buy them from here and take them to Pak.
but then i read on a different thread that u can get same style
from Pak and obviously they're cheaper.
i might be doing my wedding shopping from Lahore. so any shops in Lahore selling Unze style footwear??
If your in Jhelum
Splendour Lady/ Morning glory both are excellent u'll def like both of them
n i believe both have photographers who take excellent photos with nic eback drops..........
a lot of my family brides have been done by these and the results are brilliant!!!
Definitely book them as they are very popular within jhelum.
hi i think your best bet will be mirpur its not that far from jhelum dina,its abt 15 minutes the salon is called milli shes the best around her make up does not melt wat so ever i tried it,luks stunin i could sho u my addy is [EMAIL="[email protected]"][email protected], gud luk
