Wedding Hair & Makeup in Charleston: FAQs

How much does bridal hair and makeup cost in South Carolina?
A bride's day-of hair and makeup together runs about $300 to $450 in Charleston and Hilton Head and $200 to $350 in Myrtle Beach, Greenville, and Columbia. Each additional person is roughly $150 to $250. Trials are $100 to $175 per service, or $200 to $300 for hair and makeup together. A bride plus four attendants generally totals $950 to $1,700 in the Lowcountry and $650 to $1,200 elsewhere in the state.
Do we need a trial?
For the bride, yes — it is the only way to see how a look photographs and how it holds up over several hours, and it is when you sort out extensions, lashes, and how the style works with your veil. Book it far enough ahead that you can change artists if it does not go well, and consider scheduling it the same day as engagement photos or a shower so the work gets used.
