    Thank you for your input. It's great that you have a friend that's a make-up artist.

    I think it's great that you decided to make it optional. You are getting around the same quotes I am getting.

    I am paying for everyone to get their hair and makeup done. It just feels right to me to do so. It was around $2,000 (including tip) for me, 4 bridesmaids, junior bridesmaid, MOB/MOG, and just hair for my fiancé’s grandmother

    Does the $100 include your consultation? $100 is pretty cheap for bridal make-up.

    That's really expensive! For the trial run, I've been getting between $65 - $ 150 so far. 🤦‍♀️ $500 for a trial is definitely way too much!

    For my makeup I'm paying $160 I'm in Bakersfield CA area. My 5 bridesmaids/MOH are paying for themselves if they want it done.
    I'm not requiring everyone to get it done by the professional

    No, I don’t want to do a trial. A few inspiration pics for the eyeshadow and that’s it. I’ve seen lots of her work and I’m confident it will be fine. It’s just bridal makeup… it’s not movie special effects makeup 😆 Lol!!


    She had more expensive packages. But I don’t need all of that makeup and I don’t want airbrush. Also, I’m not doing strip lashes because I’ve been getting lash extensions for over 10 years.

    I agree it does feel right to cover your bridal party cost. I just don't want to see the bill! lol It's also really nice of you to cover the cost for the MOB/MOG and hair for your fiancé's grandmother!

    I think $1200 for everyone's hair and makeup is pretty good!

    Yea for that amount of people I think it sounds about right.


    I know when I get my hair done at the salon colored or highlighted n cut then style it costs $300 maybe more plus I got thick long hair too.
    Sometimes ppl complain about prices on hair n make-up for weddings but again you want it professional done not from someone who half does their job n makes you look like a darn clown..
    Gotta spend the $$$ to look beautiful on your wedding day plus you deserve that its a day of a lifetime💖

    I used to do bridal makeup and I went back and forth about doing my own to save money but I figured it cause me more stress than the money I was saving so I reached out to one of the girls I used to work with and she charges $125 for the bride $75 for bridesmaids. That's about normal for the area I'm in anywhere from 120-150. I'm going to pay for my bridal party.

    You are right about that Amber. It is the day of a lifetime. Plus I don't want a half-done job and because of that, I see that I'm going to have to spend some $$$. it will all be worth it in the end.

    I’m paying about $900 for bridal hair & makeup plus 7 other people (6 bridesmaids & MOTB). I thought that was a pretty good deal and their work looks great.

    My hair and make up (including trial for each) will be $550. I’m giving my bridesmaids the choice at their expense because I don’t mind if they do their own. Hair and make up are $85 for each service for bridesmaids (lashes adds $10). Nashville is pricey but I also am really particular about my hair and make up. Smiley smile
