How much does a combined bridal hair and makeup trial cost in the UK?

Answered by the UK Wedding Websites editorial team · Updated 2026-10-12 · For brides

Short answer

The cost varies widely across the UK, so there is no single price. Trials are usually charged separately from the wedding day fee. Ask your stylist for their trial price when you book. Prices depend on location, experience and travel.

In the UK, a combined bridal hair and makeup trial can cost anything from a modest fee to a premium rate, depending on where you live, the stylist's experience and whether they travel to you. There is no standard price, so it is best to ask each artist directly for their trial cost when you enquire. Many stylists charge a separate trial fee, which is sometimes deducted from your wedding day package if you book both. Others include the trial in a package price. Always confirm what the trial includes, such as lashes, a second look or a touch-up kit. Trials usually last one to two hours, and you should bring inspiration photos and any hair accessories you plan to wear. It is also worth asking whether the trial fee is refundable if you decide not to book. Prices tend to be higher in cities and for well-known artists, so set a budget and compare a few options before you commit. Remember that a trial is not just about the look, it is also a chance to see how the products feel on your skin and how the style holds through the day.
