We have only positive things to say. Zoe and Eva did a fantastic job. I had some changes I wanted from makeup trial, and it was extremely thoughtful and smooth making those changes. My hair turned out BEAUTIFUL, and without a trial! Better than I ever thought it could look! The girls were so lovely to chat to and really made our morning calm, relaxed, and enjoyable.

Taylor did a great job with my makeup for my husband’s cousins wedding. She came to my house which was really nice and even brought someone to do my hair while she did my makeup.

Heather and Tiff are absolutely AMAZING! I went to a few hair and makeup trials with different vendors, but they completely blew everyone else out of the water. They created such a fun, relaxed environment—it truly felt like I was getting ready with friends. They were incredibly receptive to any adjustments or tweaks I asked for and worked much faster than I expected without compromising quality. Throughout the planning process, they were clear and communicative about deadlines, flexible with changes to the number of people getting services, and never once made me feel like a burden while I sorted out my wedding party’s preferences. On the day of the wedding, they arrived bright and early—even before my wedding party—and had everything set up and ready to go. They kept the vibe fun and light, playing great music, chatting with everyone in the bridal suite, and working just as efficiently as they did during the trial. Heather even went above and beyond by snapping a few pictures and fun videos—totally not part of her job, but it was so appreciated! If you’re looking for a vendor who delivers stunning results while creating an unforgettable experience, Shade & Strand is the one for you!

Our hair and makeup team from LE Glam—Nolyn, Natalie, and Karyn—were absolutely amazing! We had 13 people (10 bridesmaids MOB & MOG, and me, the bride) who needed hair and makeup, and not only did they finish early, but every single person felt beautiful and confident. The atmosphere that morning was so fun and relaxed. The team was incredibly friendly, and we truly enjoyed spending those special hours with them. The updos were perfection (a solid 10/10!) and they worked wonders with curly hair, making sure everyone’s style lasted the whole day in New Hampshire in July. I also LOVED my trial day. Doing a hair & make-up trial with a bunch of other brides was a highlight of my wedding planning experience. If you’re looking for a professional, talented, and warm team to make your wedding morning unforgettable, these three are the dream team!

I specialize in creating looks that feel like 'you'--from soft and natural to full glam--while keeping your morning organized, calm and fun!

I couldn’t have asked for a better hair and makeup experience! I loved that Tiffany did both hair and makeup and that I didn’t need to book 2 different people. She listened to what I wanted and made quick changes when I changed my mind last minute. Everything lasted all day and looked flawless in photos, I didn’t need any touch ups at all throughout the entire night (I even wore my wedding hair 2 days later). I have never felt more beautiful. I owe this all to Tiffany and would tell any bride to book with her if you want a flawless look to last your entire wedding. In addition to this all, she was kind, warm, easy to talk to, and very accommodating!

Awarded Best of Zola
THREE WORDS… BOOK BOSS BEAUTY! Words cannot describe the most incredible experience with Boss Beauty AZ. I especially wanted to highlight Barbie’s exceptional professionalism, warmth, and kindness. Not only was her and her team easy to communicate with, their expertise, techniques, and knowledge of this industry puts your mind at ease when selecting them to do your hair and makeup on your big day! Barbie’s communication through out the whole process from my trial to my wedding day was top notch, there was no stone left unturned and her responsiveness is another skill to highlight. Wedding planning is stressful, however Barbie did not contribute to any of that stress as the whole process flowed so seamlessly and it was the least of my worries. As for the hair and makeup… all I can say is WOW! I had 5 bridesmaids, my mother and my mother-in-law totally 8 individuals (including myself) getting ready. Everyone LOOKED SO FLAWLESS, whether it was a soft or full glam, all of them were just enhanced versions of themselves, which was the main criteria I was looking for when selecting my beauty vendor. Everyone in my wedding party loved their looks and they kept commenting on how beautiful they felt and that made me so happy knowing they felt seen, beautiful, and pampered. We also had the best time getting ready, chatting about everything and anything while listening to some throwbacks which everyone enjoyed and participated in singing along. And last but no least, MY EXPERIENCE with my hair and makeup as the BRIDE. From one bride to a bride-to-be, I would say selecting your beauty vendor is one of the most important vendors for your wedding day because they set the tone for the rest of your day. You have to LOVE and ALIGN with the artists to your own personal style and vision of how you want to look on your big day because when you look back at your videos and photos you want to say “WOW, I FELT BEAUTIFUL!”. And Barbie did just that! As an Asian American not only did I want to look like myself but enhanced, I wanted to make sure I had an artist that understood Asian features and knew how to apply makeup to compliment those features. She exceeded my expectations, Barbie is well versed in the techniques in makeup applications for Asian and non-Asian faces and she will make you look so radiant on your day. And for my hair, Natali is so talented and executed any photos or inspiration I had for a timeless look for a classic bun and she perfectly replicate my vision flawlessly! If I have another special event to go to my first call will always be Boss Beauty AZ! Thank you so much for everything!

But what stuck out to me during that appointment, is that they sought to connect with me and made me feel special.

I was looking for a hair and makeup artist on Zola and I came across Cheryl’s page. Her easy approachability, warmth, and cheerfulness put me at ease with our initial chat over text messages. I enjoyed chatting with her be it over phone calls, text messages, or voice messages. Cheryl was very accommodating when I had to reschedule my trials and she always tried her best to respond to my texts in a timely manner. Cheryl understood the assignment and my makeup trial went very well. She even had a press on nail in her kit and saved my day! Although I was a little nervous after my hair trial didn’t seem to go well, Cheryl assured me that she had understood my hair well and that I need not worry for the wedding day. She was open to all the feedback I gave her. And She delivered. Cheryl was on point with how I wanted my makeup and hair. I didn’t believe perfection existed in this world until I experienced Cheryl’s art. I felt like a queen on my wedding day. My bridesmaids had a bit of a rough time with their makeup artist and had become upset but Cheryl came through (all of them have different skin tones) and made sure all my girls were happy to start the day! I think Cheryl is one of the best vendors I got and I’m so glad to have worked with her. I highly recommend her.

Beauty By Emily AZ was an absolute dream to work with for my best friends wedding day! From our very first conversation, the team was extensively communicative, providing detailed information and coordinating seamlessly to ensure the hair and makeup process went off without a hitch. On the day of, the stylists arrived early and worked quickly and efficiently to give us all a glamorous, clean, and perfectly organized look. We had plenty of time left over once everyone's hair and makeup were done, which was so appreciated. The girls were also so friendly to chat with - we felt like we were getting ready with a group of close friends. Beauty By Emily AZ truly went above and beyond to make us feel and look our absolute best for our special day. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

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%.
