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.

$ 150 or less Lower range
$ 481 Average cost
$ 250 - $ 712 Most couples spend between
$ 1,200 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.

Just hire her. She is amazing. I don't even know where to begin. She is incredibly talented and just a wonderful person to be around. She makes you feel comfortable from the start. While she is very talented, she is open to any feedback. I had a trial run of hair and makeup prior to my wedding and she made sure to ask multiple times if I had any comments about things I would want to change (immediately after the trial, a couple days later, and prior to applying the makeup for my wedding). As for how well the makeup lasted, it stayed put throughout my wedding and reception and I never had to mess with it all. My hair also stayed how she styled it despite some strong wind. Could not recommend her more highly.

One thing about Diana and her team is that they will show up and execute hair and make up phenomenally! They are professional, kind, and extremely talented. As a fellow vendor, we enjoy every opportunity we get to work with the Something Ginger team as we know that communication will be great and our clients will be happy. Their hair and make up photograph beautifully! We couldn't recommend this team more and adore every one of them!

I can't say enough wonderful things about Ambra! She truly made me feel like a queen on my special day. The way she worked her magic on my bridesmaids, my mom, my daughter and the mother of the groom was just incredible. My champagne-inspired makeup was glowing, and I feel so lucky to know her both professionally and personally. Her positive energy really kept me calm through the whole process. For years, Ambra has been my go-to makeup artist, and her talent never fails to impress me. Gina, her amazing business partner! She did such a fantastic job on my daughter’s hair for the bridal portraits, everything turned out so beautifully! If you’re searching for hair and makeup for any occasion, look no further than Grace and Glow Studio. They are truly the dream team! Their communication, professionalism, and warm personalities make them the best around!

I had a bridal emergency when my usual hair dresser flaked out on me 2 days before my wedding. Mark Pardo SalonSpas in Nob Hill, on Wyoming and in EDO all worked to meet our needs; the stylists worked magic! Rachel in Nob Hill made my makeup look fabulous and she did a great updo. I can't say how much I appreciate her patience with me. I'm not very good at describing what I want in the way of updos, but she really worked with me. Rachel did a wonderful job. I would recommend her to any bride! Amanda, from the Paseo location, took over touchups before and after my ceremony. After photos I had melted a little and I needed some fixes before the ceremony; she not only did touch-ups, but she really took my updo to the next level and she kept the makeup looking stunning. She was very calming when things were getting rushed and she came prepared for anything. She mentioned that she loved doing weddings and I could tell she was very experienced. Since my wife and I didn't do a first look, looking good for the ceremony was my top priority. Amanda, I can't tell you how much I appreciate your help- THANK YOU!! EDO location- I'm not sure who helped my wife's Nana, but she looked beautiful. She had a wash, blowout, and styling done and was very happy with the service.
