I found Hairs 2 Bride at a bridal expo in Schaumburg. They did my hair/makeup and my bridesmaides/ mom’s hair & makeup for my wedding a couple weeks ago. Lisa did my hair & makeup and Angel worked on the others. They both arrived early. Lisa did an incredible job with my hair and makeup and capturing the more natural vibe I wanted. She was also super helpful with organizing and giving tips to my bridesmaides to help make the day run more smoothly. They both finished their services on time and stayed really structured. I also really liked my experience working with the owner/administrative team, they were always super responsive & I liked the chart they sent before my wedding that had everyone’s services timed out/planned out.

We absolutely loved having Cat and her team be a part of our wedding! Windy City Glam came highly recommended to me by my planners, who knew that they had great expertise in doing hair and makeup for East Asian and South Asian skin tones. They absolutely aced the assignment and everyone loved the results. Cat was extremely receptive to my feedback and knew all the tricks to make my makeup last on my oily prone skin type.

Tiffany was the best! I was recommended Tiffany by another friend who used her for her makeup for her wedding and I’m so glad I did. She was so communicative and so timely in her responses! And she really heard me when I told her what I wanted and emphasized how important to me my freckles are and letting them shine through the makeup. She found the perfect partner for my hair styling, and I truly felt so so beautiful on my wedding day. I looked in the mirror and exclaimed how much I really felt like a bride after finishing in the chair. Compliments all night from guests and it looks so good in makeup. She also handled the moms and bridesmaids makeup so well, everyone looked so gorgeous.

We come to you; whether you’re getting ready beachside, at a resort, or in a private suite, creating timeless, radiant looks that enhance your natural beauty. Our signature Hydroblending Technique combines lightweight hydration with flawless coverage, giving you breathable, long-lasting makeup that feels like skin just smoother, softer, and more luminous. You’ll still feel like you, only more polished and photo-ready.

    I got my makeup done for my wedding and booked on faith because I live out of state but came for a beach wedding. I am a prior makeup artist but I wanted to relax on my big day. I was beyond nervous to have someone else do my makeup because I know what I like. Izzy was amazing with communication and booking and got me in only a few weeks before my wedding after my makeup artist from a different company canceled on me. Ally did mine and 5 of my bridesmaids makeup and it was to die for. I got my makeup done at 7 in the morning and it still looked fresh at 10pm. Everyone complimented my makeup throughout the day and said I looked fresh out of a bridal magazine. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ALLY! She constantly checked in to make sure I was loving my makeup and quickly made the only adjustment I wanted. Book here, you won’t be disappointed!

    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

    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. Being a bride in the past, I understand the need of being surrounded by professionals that not only provide you with beautiful and organized work but you also treat you as a special person and not just a number.

    Awarded Best of Zola
    Chrys was more than my hair and make up artist that day. She was my fairy glam mother! She stayed with me all day for touch ups (which my now husband really enjoyed receiving too). She would run over in-between a photo and fix a strand of hair, blotting some sweat, the little things that made my wedding photos truly perfect. There is nothing worse than looking back and wondering why did no one fix that piece! When she wasn't perfecting my look, she was an absolute angel and was helping me walk around with my extra long train and giving me pep talks. When we arrived at the church it all hit me, that the big day was here and I was about to walk down the aisle, she knew exactly what to do and calmed me down while holding a fan to my face for my make up to stay put from tears. She is truly the kindest and most genuine person. I was so lucky to have her with me during that moment! Now... for why you're reading this review, the hair and make up skill. 5 stars!!! Chrys is beyond talented! I loved her work in Instagram and reached out. The truth is, you never know what you're booking in the wedding planning phase. I saw she had an amazing portfolio and was reliable. I can say booking with Chrys was the best wedding planning decision I made! NO NOTES! I'm whole heartedly in love with my look and how it all came out in photos. She took the direction and feedback from the trial and perfected it on my wedding day, I was blown away! I seriously think she was reading my mind! lol. She hit every single detail, she helped mix what I wanted and what would last on a hot June summer day with ease. I felt like a princess! Chrys also did my mothers hair and make up. She's never had it professionally done and is very picky. My mom is OBESSESSED with Chrys and her work. She also said it was the best wedding planning decision I made. After it was all over, we agreed it was so important to have someone who was full of positive and calming energy as you're anxious sitting in the chair all morning. She was exactly what everyone needs on their wedding day. A true full package, a fairy glam mother! XOXOX

    Emily and her team were amazing! I did a lot of research before booking hair and makeup for my big day and came across Beauty by Emily and couldn’t have booked with her sooner! Starting at my trial, she made me so comfortable and even sent a prep sheet on how to best prep for this. She listened very intently to what I was saying I wanted and took the time to go through inspo photos I had saved to pick apart what I liked and disliked. After the trial, she was communicative leading up to the wedding day. On wedding day, she was very adaptable, as we had a small space to set up in and the room got very warm. They worked promptly to get my bridesmaids, myself, my mom and mother in law all pretty for the day of. Everyone’s hair and makeup lasted throughout the wind and the tears of the day.

The quality of her work was perfect - they allowed time for touch-ups and individualized everyone's hair exactly how we wanted it. I also changed my style after the trial and she sat with me to understand exactly what I wanted and executed it perfectly. Sophia was so thoughtful, even offering me her extra sweater when I was feeling a bit cold. She brought such a calm presence and spent extra time ensuring my front pieces were styled just the way I envisioned for my look. Sophia is truly a kind soul and I highly recommend her services for any wedding or 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%.
