Awarded Best of Zola
I had the best experience with Windy City Glam for my wedding in July! Jeanette gave me the most beautiful, glowy soft glam look—exactly like what we did in my trial. Reyna nailed my hair and brought my vision to life effortlessly. I truly felt like the best version of myself. All of my bridesmaids were thrilled with their hair and makeup too—one even said she wants to book Windy City Glam for her own wedding! Beyond making everyone look amazing, the team helped set the perfect tone for the morning. They arrived 15 minutes early and kept everything running smoothly. Thanks to their efficiency and calm energy, I was seated and ready 30 minutes ahead of schedule, which gave me extra time to relax, eat breakfast, sip mimosas, and enjoy the moment with my mom and bridesmaids. If you're looking for a talented, professional, and calming beauty team for your big day, I can't recommend Windy City Glam enough.

What really impressed me was how natural everything looked and felt—my skin looked like skin, the lashes were so comfortable I forgot I was wearing them, and the glam lasted all day without ever looking heavy or fake.

I don't even know where to start. Anastasia was incredible to work with since the beginning. She made my day so special. I'd like to start off by saying that the quality of work was impeccable, she was honest in what worked and what didn't, she gave suggestions that were even better than what I had in mind, and delivered quality work whether it was the trial or the day of. Anastasia really loves what she does and that shows. Her enthusiasm really shows through and she thrives in this environment. On the day of my wedding she was on time, absolutely focused, and made everyone look beautiful. My hair maintained its shape for most of the night. I sweated and danced for hours and still felt beautiful. I would like to mention that we did change my hair after I decided to add a veil, so don't be afraid to do a second trial or ask her to change the style to suit your needs. She is very accommodating.

Corinne is MAGIC! From the moment I inquired about my wedding day, she has been such a pleasure to work with! From my hair/makeup trial, to the wedding day - Corinne's professionalism, positive demeanor and talent are UNMATCHED! She gave me the look I dreamed of, and with such a warm and joyful presence. Her and Monique did such a spectacular job on my wedding day for my girls, my mother, even my daughter and I. Hair and Makeup is SUCH A KEY PART of your wedding day. If you're thinking about hiring Mrs. Hercules, do it! You won't be disappointed! ;)

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. I felt extremely beautiful thanks to Emily and her team. She even included a bridal touch up kit which was so nice to have to refresh throughout the evening! Emily is amazing and so sweet and so communicative, I definitely recommend to anyone booking her!!

Johan did such a great job with my hair and makeup for my wedding and she was amazing to work with! When I wasn't sure between two hair styles for the wedding we tried both for the trial. She listened to what I wanted and was open to changes when I requested them. The end result was so beautiful and it lasted the whole evening! Johan is so lovely to work with, she is so kind and friendly and really added to my wedding day experience. I would absolutely recommend Johan to anyone looking for hair and makeup services.

I could not be happier with having Ulyana and her team for my wedding hair and make-up. From my first contact with Ulyana, she was quick to respond, professional, and gave so much information, which as a nervous bride was so great to have! I do not typically wear makeup so my main concern was to still feel like myself on my wedding day, just the most beautiful and confident version of myself. I did a trial with Ulyana a few months before the wedding and while the make up and hair were both beautiful, I still felt like it was a bit too much for my comfort level. Ulyana listened to all of my feedback and her responses were so kind, professional and understanding. She made me feel so comfortable and confident leading up the wedding that everything would be perfect. And it was! The wedding day Ulyana arrived on time with her team and they had everything set up and ready to go right on schedule. She had worked with our wedding coordinator for a schedule that worked with our photographers schedule and wedding start time, it was so nice to not even have to think about that! Our wedding party had 6 bridesmaids, my mom and myself and I felt like having Ulyana and two assistants was the right decision, it allowed for a relaxed morning with plenty of time for everything to be done on time. All of my bridesmaids and my mom looked amazing. Her and her team did a great job listening to the wants of each person and tailoring the look to them. For my hair and make up, it was absolutely perfect. The make up was enough to make me feel more beautiful than I ever had while still feeling like 100% myself. I had switched hair styles the week of the wedding and Ulyana was able to do exactly what I wanted and incorporated decorative hair pieces that I had provided. Both the hair and make up held up completely through tears, sweat (May wedding) and a bit of rain! Ulyana, thank you so much for helping to make my wedding day perfect. It was truly the best day of my life and you helped to create that!

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%.
