As someone who doesn’t get professional makeup done very often, it’s usually a little hard for me to feel comfortable with it. But she made the entire experience amazing. I was in California for an event (I traveled from New Jersey), and she took every detail into consideration even how the weather was affecting my skin and hair. The makeup looked perfect. The shade match was spot on. Ididn’t look lighter or darker, just like myself but enhanced. She was professional, punctual, and very kind. You can truly tell she knows exactly what she’s doing. I absolutely loved her work and would highly recommend her.

Awarded Best of Zola
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).

Palla Beauty was an absolute DELIGHT to work with for my wedding weekend (Saturday and Sunday!) beauty needs. From the moment I first spoke with Nicole, her communication style was effortlessly direct and collected - she made me feel heard about my wants and also offered incredible suggestions to elevate my look. Nicole was very clear about planning and timing (as any incredible wedding vendor should be!), but also had an open ear for understanding my preferences and adjusting my makeup and hairstyle accordingly. She is so incredibly skilled with her makeup and hair brushes and the makeup and truly made me feel so beautiful! The extensions she gave me for my Sunday look lasted through dancing and snow and so much jumping!! Nicole also worked on makeup with my mom, who can sometimes be a tough customer (but Nicole handled it with ease!) and TOTALLY EXCEEDED my mother’s expectations (particularly because she is new to makeup!). On my wedding day, Nicole made me feel like a princess - I felt so confident, and the makeup and hairstyle lasted flawlessly through tears, winter weather, and heavy dancing. Nicole was so adaptable to my changing energy levels and needs, so easy to talk to, and a gem to work with. I feel really lucky that I was able to find someone who was so skilled with makeup and also was able to really elevate my hair and make it exactly what I always dreamed of for my wedding!!! I can't recommend Palla Beauty highly enough!

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!

I have serviced over 300 + brides throughout the country and have over 6+ years of experience in the wedding industry.

Johan did hair and make up for me, my mother, my two tween daughters, and my sister for my wedding and she nailed every single style we wanted. My bridal look could not have been more perfect. She was professional and a great way to start our wedding 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%.
