    HI
    We're getting married on a Sunday....what do you think I should be reasonably looking to pay for bridal hair (with trial) and makeup (with trial) for me? Then i have 4 bridesmaids - but they wont require trials as they live all over the country :-)

    many thanks......i just dont know where to start looking!

    Price vary massively. I've seen lots of people on here get really good prices, but mine was really expensive: £350 for me (for both hair and make-up inc a trial) and £150 for my mum (hair and make-up; no trial). Bridesmaids would have cost the same as my mum (about £150 each) so needless to say they're doing their own lol.

    At a guess I'd say that probably the minimum you're looking at on average is maybe £40 for bridesmaid hair and make-up, and double that for your own? That's based on prices I've seen on here.

    It really depends where you live though and what you want, so my advice would be to contact a few people locally to get quotes.

    Agree with lala my hair and make up is £80 and my trials will be £40 bridesmaid will be £70 with trials at £40. My lady does hair and makeup which is hard to come by so I'd pay that and more so it's only the one person doing it all :-)

    I've been quoted anything from £200-£450 just for me so I'll definitely be getting as many quotes as possible! Xxx

    My hair trial cost £30 and my make up on the day cost £75 by brideology who are fab i didn't pay for make up for my adult bridesmaids or they didnt have a hair trial before hand as one had short hair which could only be blow dried and the other two just had theirs curled on the side x
