If you add the word “wedding” to a service, it costs at least 2x as much

~300, split pretty evenly (150 hair, 150 makeup)

It'll depend a lot on your area but I paid $85 for hair and $75 for makeup. For both my trial and my actual wedding day. Prices I found (in Cleveland) varied from $100 for both to $200 or so for both. I focused more on artists whose styles I liked first, then price second.

Boston: $300 for me. Did airbrush makeup and I believe the trial was another $50. I also paid for hair and makeup for the full bridal party and my mom and MIL at $125 each. They threw in hair for my flower girl who loved doing what all the big girls were doing.

Depends what kind of makeup you’re going for. I’m Indian and need additional help with draping our outfits and have 2 looks so I’m paying a $1000 in NJ. All HMUAs charge extra for Indian brides

NYC: $300 for hair and makeup trial/engagement shoot and $300 for wedding...$200 for hair and makeup for bridesmaids and mothers

0, did my own. Happy with my makeup but wish I had someone do my hair. If you’re trying to budget and cut from somewhere, don’t skimp on your look. No one cares about flowers or food in 1 year, but you’ll see your photos forever and be going “Damn! Why did I do that!” For decades.

Unless the food is really really awful lol. But in my experience, cheaper food tends to be tastier.

I think about $300 total. Went for air brushed makeup, so it was a little more expensive.

Yeah, a bit over $100 for each, plus tip

Do you mind sharing where you are located?

Wife’s was around 6-700 for both. Then add tip to it.

Based in nyc getting a quote for about 1.2k for hair and makeup for the wedding day (in NJ)

I'd go for less popular people that still fit your style. There are a lot of facebook wedding groups for specific regions, where people can find vendors within a specific price range for a specific date. I recommend joining some of those. You can also ask friends and family in the area for recommendations.

Hey! Not really a sneaker head myself but I’m trying to buy my gf a Christmas gift and needed some expert advice. She wants multicolor (ie pastel) AF1’s and I’ve found some great looking custom pairs online. I’m hesitant to buy expensive custom shoes from sellers with little-to-no reviews. Has anyone bought custom shoes? How can I be sure that quality will be up to standards? Has anyone had issues or any tips? Best/safest sites? Just want some advice before I purchase. Thanks!!

At what point do you draw the line on WLB? Working insane hours on a long/term project with what feels like no end in sight. It’s not sustainable but clearly expected. Could you get fired for drawing lines in the sand and saying (example) “come 8:30 every night I’m logging off”. That’s a 65 hour work week as-is but I currently am up until midnight working consistently. For context I’ve been rated as a strong performer consistently and am not new to the job so it’s not a lack of understanding.
