i found a hair stylist that charges $75 for the bride and $65 per BM which is great ... but the trial costs $100...!!!
how is that possible?!
her explanation is that the trial takes several hours but i don't understand how it can be $25 MORE than the actual day-of hair!
and not just that, but it's $100 for the trial for hair trial, makeup trial OR both .... so i can get a hair AND makeup trial for teh same price as just the hair?! why would i choose to do just one?!
is it just me or is this super weird?
should i have a trial with her?

Re: um really?
I'm just as confused as you are!! The math is just not working. I would recommend my girl but she's a friend of mine and she'll be partying at my wedding the night before so I don't think she'll be in any shape to do it. Good luck!

I do understand that the trial usually takes much longer than the day of styling...but I have never heard of any stylist charging more for the trial! At the very least, they should reduce the price if you book with her

It is a little screwy-that you can get a hair & make up trial for the same price as a hair trial by itself , but I do sorta see her point that a trial takes longer than the day of (she might do three different styles on the trial) as opposed to just one on the day of

I think its sothey are guaranteed more money becasue they get 100 out of you for the trial whether you book with them or not opposed to just getting a guaranteed 50 or 60 bucks

It does sounds weird, but truth be told, that's good pricing for both the Day of and the trial.
I say give her a shot, especially if she comes recommended. Do both hair and makeup.

That really doesn't make any sense? Maybe she figures if the bride doesn't book, she'll at least have made more money that waY?

Re: um really?
I can see that the trial would cost more bc it can take a while but getting 2 for the price of one is just weird... take her up on it though if you do get a trial with her!
