Cheap makeup & hair in Surrey

Tammy86

Hope someone can help!
I'm trying to find a makeup artist and a hairdresser (would consider one person who can do both) to do mine and my bridesmaids hair and makeup (More bothered about my makeup than theirs tho).

I'm getting married in Woking, but everyone I have looked at, are massively expensive.

I've got a budget in my head and they are well over it!

Does anyone know anyone or any company who can help?

Can't help with the area aspect, but have you considered getting your hair done in a salon on the morning, and looking on Facebook for a make up artist? I've found a few salons in my area that change around £40 for the hair.

Have you considered going to MAC and having a tutorial to enable you to do your own make up on the day? Costs £25 which you redeem against products and they are really professional. They don't just slap a load of make up on you and make you look like katie price, they discuss your preferences etc.

How about approaching Woking or Guildford college to come and do the bridesmaids hair? You could then spend a bit more on yours, or even go to somewhere like Toni and Guy to have it done, unless you need them to come to the house.
I second the MAC counter idea, or what about going to the MAC or bobbi brown counter, and asking if they would come to the house to do your make up for the day with theirs??? Probably would not be as expensive as an actual make up artist, but still very good and you could easily have a trial with them at the counters before.

Thats a good point, most of the MAC staff also do freelance. Worth asking them. They can't discuss prices with you in the shop, but they will give you their contact info to get in touch with them outside of shop times. As most of them are looking to increase their portfolio's they will be much cheaper than a professional.
