Ok, how expensive because I LOVE these hair do's. I have long, Japanese-staightened hair (used to be curly), and I would love my hair to look like these. The hairstyles are so fun and beautiful. You all look like models.

How much do they charge for a trial? I am hoping they deduct it if you book them... Boy o Boy... they do do beautiful work so the price doesnt discourage me that much, but DAMN!

Re: NELSON & MARIA D'LEON
I do not think that Maria & Nelson D'Leon are 'the best' rather than just well known for their services. I'm sure there are tons of stylist (mine for instance) that can recreate the styles for far less.
I asked my stylist about a post on this site noting that a bride was quotes $1,000 plus 20% travel time for wedding day hair.
She told me that she has given at least one wedding day quote of $2500 for the bride, 2 BM's, 2 FG & MOH plus MOB - 7 people total.
The reason it was $2500 is because the wedding was on a Saturday morning out of the local area. Saturday is her best day in her shop. She would have to travel to the hotel the night before meaning she could not work in her shop late on Friday night or work at all on Saturday so she would be missing out on the payments & tips from her regular Friday night & Saturday clients.
She would need to prep all 7 people the night before (setting their hair in rollers, touching up color or other prep). She would have to pack up her car with all the equipment (clips, pins, portalable dryers, chemicals, curling irons etc.) since so many people claim they won't need this or that but they can need color touched up or a cut or some other process. Then she was expected to do all 7 hair styles the next morning starting at 5 or 6 a.m. and then stay to touch up the hair styles until at least the beginning of the reception.
I had no idea so much was involved in having a stylist come to do everyones wedding day hair![]()

Her rationale is that if she gives up Friday night & all of the Saturday clients she should at least charge what she would have made had she been in her shop.
Say 36 people total Friday night and all day Saturday (9 a.m. - 9 p.m.) is the norm assuming she stacks appointments (which my stylist does all the time![]()
). Using your regular price of $65 per person (no tips or tax) she would make $2340 in her shop from Friday night through Saturday.
After doing the wedding hair from Friday night through Saturday, she would not even bother going back to her shop so late in the evening. Plus, she could not book anyone in advance at the shop anyway because there is no telling what time she would be done with the wedding.
I think the $1,000 price Nelson & Maria D’Leon charge is high but now that I understand all that goes into it I see the rationale for the price - especially if they are to give up an entire day at someone's home (meaning no appointments with other brides).

No, it's not deducted from the price.
