2 Questions RE: Makeup pricing - Traveling Fees and Gratuity

I want to get an idea of:

Who is paying traveling costs and how much. What is the location they are traveling from/to for this fee?

Any makeup artists who are adding a set gratuity (ie - 20%) to their prices?

Thanks girls.

generally makeup/hair will not automatically add the 20% gratuity - it is up to you to tip them on your own

and im not sure i understand the question about traveling fees?

I guess she means the makeup artist traveling to where you are getting ready instead of going to the makeup artist.

my MUA already included the cost of travel in her price. But I wouldn't have gone to her anyway on my wedding, she would have had to come to me.
She is $300 for hair & makeup

i'm paying for my hair/MUA's traveling cost - which is how much a cab would cost her from Astoria to my house and back. sucks but i was happy w/ her and if i went looking elsewhere - that trial would've been her traveling cost.

and no, she did not add gratuity - that is up to my discretion.
