HAIR AND MAKEUP ARTIST SERVICES
• For Halloween services on October 25 and 31, we are fully booked in SF. Our rates start at $225 for up to an hour and a half at our studio in SF or on location at your hotel or home in LA.
• Jobs requiring special effects prosthetics or extremely detailed work may be estimated at a higher price at $165-195/hr and based on artist availability. (The Mask makeup as shown in pics required 4 prosthetics including a bald cap, brow covers, forehead prosthetic and jawline prosthetic + a paint job application which takes 3-4 hours. Labor cost for something like this would cost $650 + $100 supplies.
• Dia de Los Muertos skull makeups take about 1.5 hours or more for very detailed work.
• MAKEUP PRODUCTS WE USE: We use professional rub-resistant face paints or water resistant alcohol based / airbrush makeup if it makes sense for your event. Our makeup generally stays on extremely well and you may only need to reapply lip products if necessary. As long as you are not sweating profusely, we have had many clients tell us that our makeup stays on ALL DAY AND NIGHT! Please describe the setting of your event for best results.
• ON HALLOWEEN SATURDAY, our busiest day of the year…, our makeup appts are booked back to back, so you might need to wait while we finish and clean up upon your arrival. If you need to be at your event at a certain time and cannot be late, please book an earlier appt and try not to book too close to your desired arrival time of your event.
• Please do not bring other people to your appointment without permission if they are not receiving a service. We may not have the space for them!
