1. Schedule Frequent Manicures

As soon as you get engaged, everyone is going to ask to see that rock “the RING”.

“Working out will help tighten and firm your body while also detoxing your whole body.

Besides your hair trial, you should also schedule a makeup trial at least three months before the wedding.
