Awarded Best of Zola
We are so grateful to have had "Hairs 2 the Bride" for our wedding on September 21, 2024! From start to finish, they were fantastic. I went to a hair and makeup trial before the wedding, and both Eva and Maria were incredibly warm, friendly, and professional. They took the time to really listen to what I was looking for and made sure everything was perfect. I felt so comfortable with them, and they made the trial fun and relaxing. On the wedding day, we decided to add Natalia to the team after discussing with the owner, and it turned out to be the best decision. Having an additional stylist really helped speed up the process, and everything ran so smoothly as a result. They brought everything they needed, including lighting, and set up in no time. They were punctual, organized, and ready to get started as soon as we arrived at the venue. Throughout the morning, Eva, Maria, and Natalia were a joy to be around. They kept the whole group on time without making it feel rushed, which was such a relief with all the wedding-day chaos. They were also fun to talk to and kept the mood light, which made the getting-ready process so enjoyable. I had a bit of a rash on my shoulder that day, and I was really concerned about it. But the team worked their magic and expertly covered it – I couldn’t even tell it was there! They also added on makeup services for my mother-in-law at the last minute, which was so thoughtful. My mother-in-law was absolutely thrilled with how she looked and felt so special. In the end, I felt absolutely stunning on my wedding day, and I have "Hairs 2 the Bride" to thank for that. They made me, my bridal party, and my family look and feel beautiful. I can’t recommend them enough – they’re not just talented professionals, but they genuinely care about making your day perfect!

I had a hair and makeup trial with Heather about 3 months before my wedding. I felt so gorgeous, and my fiancé and I went out that night. The hair and makeup held up great, and even looked better as the night went on. Heather and I had such a fun time, and I knew she would be my artist for the big day. The day of the wedding, six of us had to get ready - myself, 3 bridesmaids, my mother, and mother-in-law. Heather brought her business partner Crystal, and the eight of us had the best time ever. We chatted, listened to music, and had a blast the whole day. Heather and Crystal were both so fun, down-to-earth, and really made it feel like you were talking to a bestie. Besides marrying the love of my life (obviously), the part that I was most excited about was getting ready with my girls. The Shade and Strand team gave us exactly the experience that I was looking for, and made all six of us look absolutely stunning. I asked Heather to be my new go-to hairstylist, and she happily agreed. I can’t wait to make my first appointment with her and watch her work her magic. I also know who to go to whenever I need my hair and makeup done for a special event. Shade and Strand can do natural, glam, and everywhere in between. Book them and you will not be disappointed! (More detailed photos to come once I get them back from the photographer).

She worked with me during the trial to find a style that fulfilled my vision and did an amazing job of integrating flowers into the style. We even changed the style up pretty significantly between the trial and day of and it turned out perfectly. I was so happy with how the make up turned out. I don't wear a lot of make up normally.

I did my trials for hair and makeup a few weeks before my wedding. They texted me a few hours later to see how everything held up and what I wanted to change. On the day of my wedding the helped me deal with the awful news that my venue would not be staffed for my wedding. They helped me get my mind off of all that and focus on my friends and the hair/makeup. We made the changes I wanted and I genuinely have never felt so beautiful in my life. My bridesmaids looked incredible as well. Were all different ethnicities, skin tones and hair textures and all looked amazing. They were efficient in our timeline so much so that we finished nice and early which allowed me to take a breather with all the things going on with my venue. The make up and hair held through tears, sweat, outfit changes, and head banging on the dance floor. I can’t thank them enough for making my wedding day the best it could be!

I can’t say enough good things about Mandie and her airbrush tanning! Every single time I get sprayed, my tan lasts over a week, and sometimes it even stretches to two weeks, which is amazing. Not only is Mandie incredibly talented and on top of her game, but she also goes the extra mile to make sure you’re comfortable throughout the entire process. She provides foot stickies, a hair net, lotion, and even finishes with baby powder so you feel fresh and not sticky. Attached is a picture of me and Mandie after a fresh spray! I’m on the left. After every tan, I get tons of compliments on my skin and skin tone—people always ask if I’ve been on vacation! I feel so confident and beautiful when I’m bronzed. Plus, the convenience is unbeatable—whether I go to her or she comes to me, it’s always such a smooth and easy experience. Mandie is hands down the best airbrush artist I’ve ever been to!

I could not be happier with my experience with Palla Beauty. Nicole was so easy to work with from my first inquiry through the wedding. I wanted to embrace my natural curls for my wedding so it was important to me to find someone I could trust to handle curly hair. Nicole made me feel at ease (she has naturally curly hair) and at my trial I knew I made the right decision. She even emailed me ideas to help get closer to my hair vision in the time between my trial and wedding. She also specializes in natural glam which is exactly what I wanted- to look like myself, but enhanced. She brought Cassi for makeup and Nichole for hair for my mom, sisters, and niece, and they both killed it. It was misty/rainy all day and both my hair and makeup held up great. I got to reunite with Nicole at my sister’s wedding four months later :)

Amber is an incredible person and artist. Her experience and talent made me feel at ease and excited for my big day from the moment I booked with her. As a makeup lover, I knew I was going to be particular about my glam for my wedding day. After learning about her years of experience, reading her reviews, and seeing her beautiful and diverse portfolio of work, I knew I needed to book with her. I'm so happy to get to add to her incredible reviews, because she was such an important part of making my wedding day the best day of my life! She was professional, kind, and SO much fun to hang out with while getting ready. My bridal party had a variety of different levels of comfort with makeup and types of coverage, and Amber and her second artist Shari went above and beyond making sure everyone felt beautiful. Everyone, regardless of age or style, was obsessed with their makeup. My makeup lasted all night--seriously. I'm usually quick to get oily, and I didn't need any touch ups beyond my lipstick the entire night. It also looked incredible in my photos. Her technical skills as a makeup artist combined with her personality and ability to listen to clients make her the perfect choice for your wedding day. You will look and feel beautiful, inside and out. (photo credit: Lisa Hornak Photography)

Ann and her team were incredible from start to finish! Ann impressed me with how organized she was throughout the entire process. From scheduling the trial to coordinating the hair and makeup schedule for the wedding day, she was attentive to every detail, making the experience seamless and stress-free. Both Ann and Laura did an amazing job—they made me feel like the best version of myself, a bride but still me. My wedding party also mentioned how beautiful they felt, and their hair and makeup were stunning as well. I’m so grateful for Ann and her team’s talent, professionalism, and care. They made getting ready such a fun and relaxed part of the day. I couldn’t recommend them more for anyone looking for hair and makeup for their special event!

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%.
