Average Cost of Hair and Makeup Artist-Houston

Hello Everyone,

I am currently looking for a Hair and Makeup Artist in Houston and I am seeing prices that vary from $250-$1,000. Can anyone tell me if these prices are reasonable?

Check on your local Houston board.

This is an international board.  But I can say off the top of my head that $1,000 seems crazy, even if it included airbrushing.  (I'm assuming that is a pp price?  Because there's a big difference between $1,000 for one person, and $1,000 for 12 people for hair and makeup).

Umm…I'm paying $220 for hair, make-up, and a trial run for both. And this is in the San Francisco area. So $1,000 for one person seems WAY too high. Check on your local board.

I'm going the cheap route and booked an appointment at mac. 50 bucks, great make up, multiple artists so everyone can get done at the same time. ..simple

When I told my planner I wanted hair and makeup done for me she budgeted $350 for both in my break down. So far with the people I have looked at online that seems about spot on, give or take $15-20. I will take into consideration a lot of factors, like how close they are to me/the venue, before I book. But I would not go over around $370. Of course that is just for me. If you are talking about several girls then break out the calculator!

HTH!

ETA: This includes a trial run.

$200 for hair and makeup would be more reasonable in Houston.  You didn't ask for any recommendations, but if you would like a couple, email me at kerriwright85@gmail.com.  GL
