Hi all! Still trying to fix my avatar, but I have a question. I was quoted for bridal makeup and hair as follows:

Bride: $900 (both)

Bride Trial: $300 (both)

MOB: $350 (just makeup)

I just wanted to know if that is reasonable pricing for the area I am in? Makeup and hair are the two things that I simply know that I want to "splurge" on, and I have enough time to save for it. I also wanted to pay for my mother and FMIL as a thank you for everything. So, opinions? Thank you very much in advance!

    My makeup artist is a celebrity makeup artist and she is located in NY; she charges $300 for bridal makeup; $150 for bridesmaids. Since I know her she is charging me $150 and my Bridesmaids $75.

    Brooklyn here, I'm paying $150 total for both make up and hair. She's also charging an additional $50 per artist (3 total) for travel, gas and tolls.

    I am in Dallas, but I have one, if not the top hair and makeup artist and I am paying $300 for bridal hair and makeup, and my mom is paying $200 for both. She was the H&MUP artist for my sister-in-law's wedding and did a phenomenal job, and we are very picky. Airbrush and all. That seems so ridiculously high.
