I'll start by saying that I rarely wear makeup, maybe like 3 times a month. I was considering not wearing any for my wedding but my mom is like think about the pictures, so I am.

I'll start by saying that I rarely wear makeup, maybe like 3 times a month. I was considering not wearing any for my wedding but my mom is like think about the pictures, so I am. I don't know anything about makeup, i.e. how much products cost, how long it will take, the extensions I want, nothing. I have been getting quotes for $400+ for my hair and makeup, is this the average? Thank you all for your help Smiley smile

    That's so good. I checked on thumbtack and only found 3 people but didn't like their work, unfortunately Smiley sad!

    That's really good! I live in L.A. but I'm getting married in the Inland Empire and I don't want to be charged the travel fee, so I actually found someone out there.

    I'm feeling pretty good about my $60 hair and $45 makeup from my normal salon.... I'm sorry your quotes are so high. Smiley sad

    Call Nordstoms department store and ask for the MAC or makeup brand of your choice counter and book an appointment with them to do your makeup on the day of your wedding. It's free with the purchase of any product. Some stores say $65 minimum purchase but that's not bad considering you're walking out with your face done and products as well. Then get your hair done at a salon and don't say it's a wedding. Just take your inspiration picture and tell them you're going to a private event.

    It's sad, but once you say wedding, they add on extra $$$.

    I am in a big city (in Canada), and my H/MUA charged 350$ for both services including trial (which I think is already a steal). I booked when she was having a 50% off sale so I got both for 175$! Yay for savings. I think 400$ isn't unreasonable if it includes trials.
