How much are you paying (or did you pay) to get your hair done?

I was quoted $100 for someone to come to my room & fix my hair. Is that about right? I haven't had my hair fixed by a pro in a long time. I think I paid $25-$35 for prom, but that was *gasp* almost 10 years ago. It will be really nice to have them come to me.

i think i paid $300 - that included a trial, and she had to come out to Las Caletas

I would love to hear the answers to this question. My cousin who is a hairdresser is coming to the wedding, so I want to ask her if she'll do my hair, but I have no idea what the "going rate" is to pay her. Thanks for starting this thread!

It's $90 at the spa at the resort.

So far it sounds like $100 isn't overpriced. I was a little shocked at the price, but I guess it's worth it because it's the day I'll be the most photographed of any other day.

Looks like EDR is only charging $66 (right now) for you to get your hair done in their spa. That's not bad at all - I wonder if the hairstylist is any good, though....

I think $100 is reasonable for someone good to do your hair for your wedding - but I definitely wouldn't pay $200 or $300! $150 - tops.

Mine was $75 each time. I did two sessions - one practice/bridal portraits and the one on the big day. But that was here in Dallas...

 

You'll definitely pay more to have someone come to you.

Side note: it's only $65 at my resort if you put the veil in yourself. Yeah, that's right $25 for a veil! Man, they sure do take advantage of brides!!

I paid $65 in San Antonio 6 years ago. I was completely shocked at the price. I think I hadn't paid more than $35 before that. That was the last wedding I got my hair fixed for (bridesmaid). After that I did it myself. Nothing great though. For one I put in one of those curly fake hair things. I thought I was going to look silly, but everyone thought I had paid for an updo. Now that my hair is shorter, I just wear it down & curl it for weddings. But now as the bride instead of bridesmaid, I feel like I should let myself spend a little more & have it really pretty.
