I had a hair & makeup trial this past weeekend and loved how they did my makeup & hair. I booked them but my only concern is the price of the hair person! She charges $150 for bride, $75 for anyone else who wants a blowout and $100 for anyone else who wants an updo. Do you think that;s a bit much for the bridal party? I spoke to some of them and although they want their hair done, they don't want to spend $100 for it and I totally agree with them. The only problem is that I need someone to come to the hotel where we are getting ready at (Melville Mariott) at 6 AM. To add to the complexity, I am getting married on July 4th so a bunch of people that I have contacted are going on vacation that weekend and are unavailable.
I have already contacted Jennifer from Fairytale makeovere and Denise Venti and both are unavailable.
Iknow a lot of you have had hair stylists who you've used or booked so I wanted to see what you thought about those prices and also get some recommendations.
Thanks so much! Mindy

Re: wedding hair- need some help!
Who did you book for makeup?
I think that's the regular price usually charged for hair, but I would go with a very recommended hairperson if you're going to spend that much. I think Denise Venti charges that much, and I've read many raves about her on here.

Oh, sorry, just read Denise Venti isn't available. I would look around for other people or maybe even a salon near you, and see how their prices are.

Re: wedding hair- need some help!
do you have a personal hair dresser you could have go to the hotel room? $150 seems very high for just the hair. If I am correct others charge that for BOTH

Re: wedding hair- need some help!
The person that I go to for hair does not do wedding hair (updos) so unfortunatly, she is not an option. It is driving me crazy because I can't find anyone for less than $150!!!
