How much does wedding hair and makeup cost?

You definitely want to look your best on your wedding day to slay those wedding photos—so be sure to entrust your hair and makeup to the professionals! Of course, you’ll have to pay to have your hair and makeup done, but it is certainly worth it. The average wedding hair and makeup cost in the U.S. is around $300, but typically ranges from $150 to $600 depending on both your location and the intricacy of the wedding hair or makeup style you’d like.

$ 77 or less Lower range
$ 410 Average cost
$ 170 - $ 720 Most couples spend between
$ 1,174 or more Upper range

Costs displayed are based on spend from thousands of couples who recently reported pricing for this service within their WeddingWire review. Pricing varies based on factors including, but not limited to, vendor’s experience, level of expertise, event guest count, date, and geographic region.

What is included in the price of a bridal hair and makeup package?

In general, your wedding hair and makeup cost will include your stylist’s or makeup artist’s time on your wedding day. Most hair and makeup pros charge by the hour, so the longer you need your hair stylist and makeup artist to be present during your wedding, the more you’ll pay. Also know that for hair stylists, wedding updos tend to cost more than blowouts—in fact, the average cost of a bridal updo is $100 and the average cost of a simpler blowout is $55. When it comes to makeup, airbrush makeup typically comes with a higher price tag than traditional application. The average cost of airbrush makeup is $115 while the average cost of traditional makeup is $100. Some pros include a hair or makeup trial in their bridal makeup prices or wedding hair prices, but some do charge extra.

How far in advance should I book my hair and makeup artist?

We recommend booking your wedding hair stylist and makeup artist at least three months before your wedding. Start by reading online reviews of beauty pros near your wedding location, and then reach out to a few to find out availability and pricing. You may want to interview several wedding hair stylists and makeup artists to find someone you’re comfortable with, and whose style and vision matches yours.

Are there any add-on costs for wedding hair and makeup?

Depending on your style, needs, and budget, there are many different possible add-ons to bridal makeup packages or to your wedding hair cost. A few examples:

Extra services: There are certain makeup techniques and styles that might add dollars to your bridal makeup cost. For example, false lashes may cost extra, as can airbrush makeup. When choosing your wedding-day makeup style, be sure to factor in these additional costs.
Travel: If your wedding hair and makeup pros work out of a salon, you may have to pay extra for them to travel to your wedding location. And if it’s an especially long distance, you may have to pay even more for mileage.
Additional people: If you’re planning on having your hair stylist or makeup artist also provide services to your bridesmaids, mom, etc., you’ll have to pay more. Your hair stylist or makeup artist may choose to bring an assistant to help speed things along on your wedding day—another add-on to your wedding makeup cost or wedding hair cost.
Additional hours/touch-ups: Want your hair stylist or makeup artist to be on hand at different times throughout your wedding day to provide touch-ups or even a new ‘do for your reception? The more time you have your beauty pros on hand, the more you’ll pay for your wedding hair and wedding makeup prices.
Trial: As mentioned, many wedding hair stylists and makeup artists charge extra for a trial run.
Tips: Many couples forget to factor tips into their wedding-day budget. We recommend tipping your hair stylist and makeup artist as though it was a regular appointment—15 to 20 percent of the total cost for each professional.

What are wedding hair and makeup trials? And how much do they cost?

A wedding hair and/or makeup trial allows you to meet with your hair or beauty pro a few months before your wedding, and see how exactly your hair and makeup will look on your wedding day. You can also make any tweaks or adjustments if necessary. If your hair stylist or makeup artist charges extra for a trial, the average cost is $75 per service.

How much does bridesmaid makeup cost?

It’s a good idea to have your bridesmaids’ makeup professionally done—they’ll feel more confident and look even better in photos! The average wedding makeup cost for bridesmaids is $75 per service.

So so glad I booked with Taylor! She was super easy to work with and great with communicating. I have very straight, fine hair that does not curl easily and was getting disappointed when I was hunting for a hair stylist because most places suggested extensions if your hair doesn’t hold curl well. I booked my trial with Taylor and quickly knew it was the right fit. She listened to me at the trial and the day of when I wanted to adjust the style a little she rolled with it and I couldn’t have been happier. My curls held all day and night even with the humidity and lots of dancing. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Very grateful Taylor was a part of such a special day and helped me feel beautiful! My mom even goes to Taylor for her coloring now because our experience with her was so positive, highly recommend!!

Heather and Tiffany from Shade & Strand were absolutely amazing — not just as artists, but as people. From the moment they arrived, they brought such calm energy and laughter to the room. It honestly felt like spending time with old friends who just happened to be incredibly talented. They listened, made thoughtful recommendations, and somehow managed to make each of us feel completely comfortable and beautiful in our own skin. Everyone looked stunning, and I truly believe their work — and their positive energy — helped us all shine in the photos. I’m so grateful we found them at the bridal fair. They were such an important part of our day, and I can’t recommend them highly enough!

A friend of mine had her wedding makeup done by Glam Dolls Studio and she really recommended them! I had Yuquectzin rather than Joanna, but I do have to say, Yuquectzin was amazing! She knew exactly what I wanted and was able to make suggestions if I didn't quite know what to do. She also brought along Natalie (I'm not sure if she's a part of Glam Dolls) with her so that we would be able to finish everyone's hair and makeup in time. The bridesmaids looked absolutely fantastic! Their hair was done just as they wanted it to be and their makeup was flawless! And it lasted through the ceremony and the reception (and in hot weather!). As for me, Yuquectzin did a wonderful job! I had some reservations about creasing eyeshadow, and she was able to make it so that my eyeshadow didn't crease at all even though I was sweaty half the time! And I do have to say, I looked gorgeous on my wedding day! I would definitely recommend them!!

Meztli is a dream to work with! She did a fabulous job with my wedding updo, and had no issue working with extensions and a lariat that I borrowed for the occasion. She has the expertise and friendly, calm, collected demeanor to make for a wonderful part of your wedding day. She also did my mom and MIL’s hair and make up, and they loved the results and getting to chat with her. They were originally a little nervous because they don’t wear much make up, but Meztli listened to what they were hoping for and they loved their results. I highly recommend Meztli for anyone looking for glam in San Diego!

Hair and makeup was the vendor I was most nervous about when we first started planning our wedding. I don’t wear a lot of makeup regularly and I was worried I wouldn’t look or feel like myself on my wedding day. Andrea was recommended to me by a friend and I am SO happy I went with her. She took into consideration how I was feeling, what I wanted the day of, and made sure to consider my skin type. She even gave me a bunch of tips at the trial on how to prep my skin and they made a huge difference. The trial itself went wonderfully and the wedding day was even better. Andrea and her extra artists were fantastic, fast, and everyone in my bridal party loved their hair and makeup. I felt so beautiful and love how I looked in all my photos from beginning to end. I cannot recommend Andrea enough and now hope I have another event in the future where I need my hair and makeup done just so I can hire her again.

I’m so happy with how my hair turned out for my wedding! Riri listened to exactly what I wanted and was super friendly, calm, detail oriented and easy to work with! After our trial, I asked for a few small changes, and she nailed it perfectly. She also did my bridesmaids’ hair, and they all looked amazing and felt great about their looks too. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a great bridal hairstylist!

I was traveling across the country for my son’s wedding and found Doris through Thumbtack. Being 3,000 miles away with no local referrals, I took a chance—and I’m so glad I did. From our first conversation, Doris was professional, warm, and incredibly responsive. I sent her photos of myself and what I was hoping for, and on the big day, she came to my hotel and worked her magic. When she handed me the mirror, I was blown away. I looked elegant, radiant, and truly beautiful—something I don’t say lightly. Throughout the wedding, strangers came up to tell me how stunning I looked. My hair and makeup held perfectly through tears, hugs, and dancing. Doris made me feel like Cinderella for a day, and I can’t thank her enough. If you’re on the fence—don’t be. Doris is a gem!
