Makeup and hair in the city - under $100 each service

I'm trying one more time...my googling is not finding me anywhere I am happy with either with price or their work.  

I'm looking for hair and makeup for myself and my MOH that will cost under $100 for each service, does this exist????  I'm finding insane prices and I had a trial at Style Down the Aisle/Bridal Beauty Salon that was very disappointing and poorly done.  

My entire wedding is under $15000 for 80 people (my MOH is my florist which makes flowers only around $300, I found a fantastic journalistic photog for 1500, and other good savers) and cannot stand the thought of spending over $500 for hair and makeup for just the two of us and I know there's got to be someone out there that is in  my price range for decent work.

Any ideas?

    Tracy is awesome, lots of fun and very affordable!
  • Thank you - I have emailed them and am awaiting a reply.  They are affordable for sure.  Did you use them?  Their site is kind of interesting, they offer some business things that aren't hair and makeup.

  • Thank you, but I am looking for hair and makeup from the same person/company.  I appreciate the input though!

  • My wedding party and I went to Blueberry Moon Aveda salon. It was $50 for my makeup (I got a "free" lipstick to keep) and $80 for my hair. . . . a little over what you want, but really great. My hairdresser was Grace and she did an amazing job (even though I didn't go for a trial). I had to put down a pretty big deposit since there were so many of us, but that was fine for me to carry on my credit card until the wedding day. Hope that helps!
    Glad to hear you're keeping your costs down - we did ours at your same venue (as you know) for a similar cost :) 
  • Yes, I will never forget you because you recommended the Irish Bistro!  The most perfect and gorgeous space ever. 

    I am checking out this salon right now, thank you!  See the problem is I live in the burbs and my hair lady is a family friend, and a guest at the wedding so I'm not putting her to work that day, plus I need makeup too.  So I have to research city salons through Googling and that's not always the best.  Those prices are great, that's what I'm looking for, under $100 per service (not combined, although that would be nice it just doesn't exist).

  • And by the way, I love your pictures!  I'm so freaking excited to celebrate there, and seeing your photos makes it even better because I know it will work perfectly for us.  You have no idea how happy I am you recommended the place to me, seriously.  My mom tells everyone "someone on a message board told her about it!" when they ask how we found a kind of random place.

    Were your outdoor photos taken by the museums?  I have such a bad sense of direction so don't laugh it that's totally off.  We still have to figure out where to meet before for daylight photos.
