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!

    MAKEUP ARTIST ONLY Hello! My name is Ashley. I am a professional Minneapolis makeup artist with over eight years of experience. I worked for MAC cosmetics for almost 4 years and that is where I grew as a professional makeup artist.

So, I did it afraid: In 2018 I started my own freelance makeup business-Ashley Larae MUA LLC. I couldn’t have done it without my faith in God.

From the first time meeting her at the trial, she put me at ease, listened to my wants and don’t wants , and completely nailed the vision I had with little inspo pictures to go from in terms of my makeup. I was very particular about my eyebrows and she worked her magic and they never looked better ! Hazel was such a good sport during a hectic wedding morning. I was told by other hairstylist the look I wanted for my hair couldn’t be done due to the heaviness and surplus of hair I have , but she KILLED IT !!!! She is kind, funny and so very talented! 20/10!

    Mandalin Collective Beauty 

    5.0

    Austin, TX
    • Team of 20
    • Starts at $625

    Welcome to Mandalin Collective! We encourage women to embrace all that they are. Every skin condition, ethnicity, body form and hair texture. Our goal at Mandalin Collective Beauty, is to make you feel like the most beautiful version of yourself while keeping you looking like yourself.

    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

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.

Amber's work is 100% worth the investment for how she personalizes her services and takes the time to make sure you feel your most confident, beautiful self. I couldn't give a higher recommendation!

    5 Stars isn't enough for One Salon and Bridal Co. Michelle (make-up) and Rochelle (hair) were my artists and they are incredible. They take the time to get to know you, are genuinely interested in your personal color scheme, and then work their magic. Both my hair and make-up withstood the day and night. Their prices are also very reasonable. If you're recently engaged and shopping around for hair/make-up for you and your party (or even for engagement photos), book these ladies immediately. You will be thrilled.

    Rie did an amazing job with my hair and makeup for my wedding. I booked her for both a trial run and the wedding day, and I had fantastic experiences each time. As someone who doesn’t usually wear makeup, I wanted a natural look, and Rie delivered perfectly, making me look and feel great. She was incredibly attentive and thoughtful, and consistently asked for my input throughout the process. I highly recommend Rie to anyone looking for a talented HMUA for a special occasion.

    I hired Kelsey for my November 2024 wedding and she and her team exceeded my expectations. I honestly can't stop thinking about how good my hair and makeup looked the day of my wedding. I was admittedly nervous scheduling my trial because I realized the salon is not in Philly, but in Quakertown, which was about an hour drive. However, when I met Kelsey, I was reminded of why I booked in the first place - her personality is so warm and welcoming, funny, and puts you at ease immediately. I had the same exact reaction the morning of my wedding. I received hair and makeup services and my bridesmaids and MOB/MOG had their hair styled by Kelsey's associate. I thought everyone looked gorgeous and as this was one of the more expensive vendors I paid for myself, I did feel like my money was well spent. If you like full, full coverage with heavy foundation, etc I don't think this is the vendor for you. However, I think what Kelsey did with my makeup was even better because it looked so natural, but still looked like I was wearing the right amount of makeup. On top of my hair and makeup already looking perfect in my opinion, it happened to be snowing/freezing rain the day of my wedding and all of our photos were taken outside. My makeup did not budge! I touched up my lip gloss that was about it. My curls fell slightly because of the rain, but I was still very impressed my hairstyle lasted at all because of the weather. Overall, if you're on the fence about whether you'd like a professional to do your hair or makeup for your wedding, I would highly recommend someone like Kelsey who will make you feel like the most beautiful version of yourself and take the stress out of doing it yourself.

    I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Windy City Glam. From the planning stages to the wedding day itself, everything felt thoughtful, organized, and deeply personal. Celeste and Alex were not only incredibly talented but also genuinely lovely to be around. And having Catherine who owns Windy City Glam and is also a close friend and one of my bridesmaids, made it feel all the more special. We got ready at the Hyatt House in West Loop, which isn’t the most spacious or salon-like spot for hair and makeup. But Celeste and Alex showed up early, fully prepared, and made the space work so seamlessly you’d think they set up there all the time. The room felt calm and happy, exactly what you want on a wedding morning. Celeste did makeup for me, my bridesmaids, and my mom. We had done a trial beforehand, and I gave quite a bit of feedback on what I liked and what didn’t feel quite like me. She took every note seriously, and on the wedding day, it all came together perfectly. The look felt just right, elevated, soft, with sparkly eyeshadow and still very much me. I felt beautiful without feeling overdone. The makeup lasted through every emotion, every hug, every photo, and hours of dancing. She also gave so much care to the rest of the bridal party. Everyone looked incredible and felt comfortable and confident, which set the tone for the whole day. Alex styled everyone’s hair, and she was just as amazing. At our trial, I had tighter waves than imagined, and I mentioned wanting something a little softer. On the day of, she adjusted the style to make the waves looser and added pearl accents that made it feel more romantic, and I loved it. It held beautifully all day and night through wind and nonstop dancing. My bridesmaids and mom also looked gorgeous, with styles that fit each person’s hair type and vibe. Alex was calm, focused, and incredibly efficient, but she never made anyone feel rushed. She cared about how everyone felt walking out of that chair. Catherine was a huge help behind the scenes with planning the schedule. She organized the timeline for hair and makeup so well that we stayed on track the entire morning without feeling on a timer. That kind of planning and attention to detail made the day run much more smoothly and let me enjoy the getting-ready part instead of stressing about timing. What made Windy City Glam stand out is how personal and supportive the whole experience felt. Celeste and Alex are true professionals, but they’re also kind people who bring such good energy into the room. They made me feel like the best version of myself on one of the most meaningful days of my life. If you’re considering Windy City Glam, do it. You’ll feel cared for, listened to, and completely at ease. I couldn’t be more grateful for them.

    NYC Based Hair Stylist I started my career at John Barrett in New York City and quickly began working with some of NYC’s top hairstylists over the last decade. I’ve traveled all across the United States, to London, and Morocco for my clients, and have been featured in top publications like Vogue, The Coveter, Elle, Green Wedding Shoes, and more.

    Oh my goodness, Andria and her team were absolutely incredible. She went above and beyond literally following me pre-ceremony with touchups throughout photos and curled my hair, maybe four different times to make sure it was perfect #AugustExtensions Her energy and fun attitude made the morning extra special. I wish I could go back to my wedding day so we could hang out and laugh a bit longer. I was truly lucky to have found Andria in my vendor search process. I could not recommend a better stylist and person to have by your side on your big 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%.
