Why hire a makeup artist for your wedding?
Many nearlyweds prefer to do their own hair and makeup to save on costs. However, those who have availed of beauty services in the past understand how invaluable an experienced hair and makeup artist truly is. To-be-weds can expect high-quality, reliable, and quick services from a professional stylist in London. Many beauty artists in London also offer mobile services to travel to the client’s home or venue for added convenience. Hair and makeup typically take up to 45 minutes per person and up to 90 minutes for the person-of-honour. With this in mind, it’s no wonder that so many opt for professional services over DIY.
How much does it cost?
The average person spends between £150 to £200 on hair and makeup services in London. If you include the wedding party, you can expect up to £600 for a makeup session for everyone. Costs vary depending on the artist’s experience and if they charge travel fees or other expenses.
When should I hire a hair and makeup artist?
It’s recommended to start your beauty search up to 1 year before the wedding day. Sought-after London artists will be booked out in advance, so it’s important to start early. If you have a particular style in mind, browse online through various stylists’ websites and see if they have anything that tickles your fancy. Always arrange a trial and consultation before the wedding day to decide on a makeup look and hairstyle that accentuate your features.
