We chose Windy City Glam for our wedding day hair and makeup, and it was one of the best decisions we made. Jean was our makeup artist and her understanding of my Filipina skin tone made all the difference—she had the expertise and care to make me feel radiant. Hung worked his magic on my hair, and even though I wasn't happy with my trial style, he listened to my concerns and completely transformed it into something I loved.

Hairs 2 the Bride, LTD, in Arlington Heights, Illinois, will bring the salon to you on your wedding day. They create beautiful hair and makeup styling, offer facials, and do manicures and pedicures for a complete experience. With multiple licensed stylists available, Hairs 2 the Bride will work with groups of up to 50+ people.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Hairs 2 the Bride, LTD was such a smooth experience from start to finish. Michael, the owner, answered every question we had quickly and made it easy to stay in touch throughout the planning process. I opted to go with the Gold Package and I was so glad I did - while it was a haul out to the suburbs from downtown, I was able to have a trial to test run my wedding "high pony" and learn a little bit more about what I wanted on my additional makeup day. I ended up using my additional service day to do my hair and makeup on the Friday before our wedding, when we were actually getting married in the church and having our rehearsal dinner and welcome party. My hair and makeup was on point the entire day. My Hollywood waves held up and my face kept strong throughout all of the events. On the day of our wedding, their work was outstanding—our hair and makeup looked flawless and held up perfectly through the whole celebration. Everyone on our bridal party felt confident and beautiful, which is exactly what you want when you're getting ready. We were thrilled with every detail of their service and would absolutely recommend them to any couple looking for talented professionals who actually care about making you feel your best. I chose Hairs 2 the Bride originally because their prices didn't make me want to have a heart attack (they felt reasonable and fair), and they were a Veteran-owned business (my now husband is a Vet). I was a little bit anxious because while all the reviews were great, I didn't necessarily see hair or makeup that was exactly what I wanted on their socials. Safe to say trust is key - I trusted in the reviews and they delivered. I was beyond happy with all of my services and the services for my girls, and I couldn't recommend Hairs 2 the Bride more! Attached pictures reflect my Friday Hollywood waves slick back, and my makeup being done on Saturday where the stylist cut my hair on site to make sure my face frames hit exactly where I wanted them to.

I cannot say enough amazing things about this team! From the initial inquiry, to booking, to the wedding day itself, the communication was absolutely fantastic, and everything felt so seamless and organized. Jenna was truly incredible and such a calming presence throughout the entire day. The moment she noticed I was starting to feel stressed, she immediately stepped in to help calm me down and made me feel completely taken care of. In the middle of such an emotional and hectic day, that meant more to me than I can put into words. She was not only so talented, but also so kind, attentive, and genuinely caring. She has such a great personality, and I absolutely loved her energy and being around her throughout the day. I absolutely loved my hair and makeup trial, and Jenna made a few suggestions that ended up making the final look even better than I could have imagined. Day of, everything came together more beautifully than I could have asked for. Matt did hair and Diana did makeup, and every single one of my family members and friends looked absolutely beautiful. Everyone felt confident, comfortable, and so happy with their look. They were both so much fun to be around and brought such great energy to the day, which made the entire getting-ready experience even more enjoyable.

I never felt prettier than I did on my wedding day…Tiffany did an incredible job with both my hair and makeup, and everything looked glamorous while still feeling like me. She also recommended affordable hair extension options to add fullness to my bridal bun. They were excellent quality, looked completely natural, and I can reuse them in the future. My bridesmaids were equally thrilled with their hair and/or makeup. One of them even said she had never been happy with professional makeup before, but absolutely loved how Tiffany made her look. Beyond her talent, Tiffany brought such a calm, reassuring presence on the morning of the wedding. She helped create a relaxed atmosphere, which made getting ready so much more enjoyable.

As someone who suffers from eczema and sensitive skin, looking through make up artists was nerve racking. However, when I found Glam Beauty and saw the amazing jobs that they can do, I immediately contacted them. Communication was nothing short of fantastic, all of my concerns were answered. When it came to the wedding day, the Glam beauty team was remarkable. They worked so fast and were so much fun and conversational. They even allowed the bridal party to have that small break between photos and getting dressed because they were so efficient. The makeup stayed ALL DAY, and did not smudge one bit! Despite the happy tears. Our hair was in place perfectly and did not move! And none of us had one outbreak and our skin is still as smooth as can be! Cannot be more grateful for Glam Beauty!

If you're a bride, you know that things have changed a little bit since the day you got engaged, you started making plans right away and every step it's a roller coaster of emotions that will follow you until your wedding day.

You’re not just looking for a hair and makeup team. You’re looking for peace of mind- an experience that feels calm, organized, and completely you. At Mandalin Collective Beauty, we specialize in creating effortless, natural, and elevated looks that feel like your best self: refined, radiant, and deeply confident. From your trial to the final touch before you walk down the aisle, every detail of your beauty timeline is intentionally planned so your morning unfolds with ease. You’ll never feel rushed, overdone, or overlooked. Just calm, cared for, and glowing from the inside out. You are the moment.

Awarded Best of Zola
I know most glowing reviews start with, “I can’t recommend (insert name) enough!”—but seriously, I CAN’T recommend Mandalin Collective (MC) enough. Read on, thank me later. If you’re a SparkNotes kind of person, here’s the gist: Book MC. Every time you look at a wedding photo, you’ll think, “Woah, I looked GOOD.” Because you did. MC made sure of it. December 15, 2024—my wedding day. My hair and makeup stayed flawless all night: through happy tears, hugs, hours of dancing, and even a misty rain. I’ve never felt more beautiful, and I owe that to Mandie Murphree, the mastermind behind MC. From the trial to the big day, she thought of every detail, made me feel like a queen, and still surprised me with the sweetest appreciation gifts. The trial? A must. It let me tweak my hair, pick a lip stain that wouldn’t smudge on my husband, and gave me total peace of mind. Mandie’s attention to detail is unmatched. She created a seamless timeline for 9 bridesmaids, my photographer, and me—without stress or rushing. She was calm, organized, and a joy to be around. And just when I thought she’d done enough, she showed up mid-dance party to touch up my makeup. Now, here’s something unique—I didn’t just hire MC, I also had Mandie as a bridesmaid. She’s a dear friend, and I wanted her to enjoy the day with me. To make that happen, she handpicked Magdy and Mayra to handle glam for myself, my bridal party, and even Mandie herself! It was the best of both worlds—I got the full MC experience, and Mandie got to celebrate with me. Magdy and Mayra were incredible—on time, professional, calming, and the best energy to start the day. I cried 7.25 times, and my makeup stayed flawless. The proof? A photo of me at 2:30 PM during the first look vs. 12:30 AM post-reception. Still perfect. Fun fact: I actually debated on hiring MC—not because of quality (they’re top-tier) but because I wanted Mandie to truly be a part of my day. But then Zola (yes, THE Zola) recommended MC as a top pick, and that was my sign. Mandie and I figured out a way for her to balance both roles, and it worked out beautifully. One last perk? Airplane makeup. Yes, Mandie glammed me up before I jetted off to my honeymoon in NYC. Rockstar moment. Bottom line: Hiring Mandalin Collective was one of the best wedding decisions I made. Their professionalism, talent, and attention to detail ensured I looked and felt my most beautiful—something I’ll appreciate forever. So if you’re on the fence, take this as your sign. Book Mandalin Collective. You won’t regret it. Forever grateful, Natalie Neumann

From our trial to the actual day she was always available for a question or comment and managed to turn my general “I don’t know what do you think will look good” into an absolutely stunning look. And let it be known my glam (makeup AND hair) held up not just through the wedding and reception but through the after party. So from 1pm-1am!!!!! I would highly recommend Cheryl’s services, ESPECIALLY if you want a natural makeup look because I cannot stress how much she absolutely nailed it. And she’s just super fun and professional to work with!!!!! Book her!!!!!!!

Corinne did an absolutely incredible job on my hair and makeup for my wedding! After two trials with her, I knew I was in the best hands, and she truly delivered on my big day.

About wedding beauty professionals

How much does hair and makeup cost for a wedding?

According to Thumbtack, wedding makeup artists cost $90–$475 per person on average in 2022. Here at Zola, we recommend putting aside around $300 for your own wedding hair and makeup. Services for wedding party members are generally less expensive, as the artist or stylist will spend less time perfecting the look. Be sure to have a transparent conversation with your wedding party if you expect them to cover their own costs.

How long does wedding hair and makeup take to do?

The more involved the look, the more time it will take. In general, allocate 60–90 minutes for your own looks and 30–45 minutes for each member of the wedding party. Extensions, extra thick hair, and intricate makeup all take longer. Communicating who (with pictures and descriptions) is getting what (again, with photos) to your stylists will help them plan an accurate timeline.

Who usually pays for hair and makeup for the wedding party?

Traditionally, whoever is asking for the services should pay. However, this may not be in the budget for every couple. If you’re planning on having your wedding party pay, be transparent when you first ask them to be in the wedding party itself. Then, they can choose whether it’s possible for them to participate.

How much should we tip for our wedding hair and makeup artists?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 15–20%.
