Bridal & Special Event Pricing

Ethix Makeup Beauty and Styling

When you book your wedding hair and makeup with me – I will help you in any way I can to help you stay as relaxed as possible right up until I say goodbye as you are about to leave to walk down the isle.

Southern Highlands Berry Wollongong South Coast hair and makeup artist

To ensure you have the most relaxed day ever – I only book one wedding per day – you have my complete attention on the day – I allow plenty of time to get you and your family and or girls ready for the big event

I spend as much time as you need talking to you before the wedding (outside of the trial time or the zoom meeting). 

I send you a 6 week bridal preparation plan when you pay your deposit which has been published in multiple bridal magazines over the years because editors think that it is amazing for helping you get yourself looking and feeling perfect on your wedding day! Yay!

I supply free hair padding for your hair in a variety of colours and sizes – and an array of false eyelashes to help achieve the look you are after..

I do not leave till you are ready to leave – I even help you dress if there is no-one to help you! Even if there is – I am there to help you in any way I can on your day from taping you or your maids up with Hollywood tape, turning a broach into a hair piece, to redesigning your bouquet if need be!

I also offer full day packages. This package will include me staying with you till the start of your reception which can include hair and or makeup changes.

For 8+ services of hair and makeup an additional artist may be required. Artist co-ordination included in prices. If the wedding is extremely early, potentially multiple artists.

You receive a touch up kit of lipstick pot and brush for every person there, pins, and anything else you need – basically a bridal day maintenance kit! Mind you – all you will need is a lipstick – my makeup doesn’t move, and my hair stays intact – no matter what you do on the dance floor! Years of working in film under hot lights, sun and freezing storms – mean I have perfected creating long lasting hair and makeup which still looks completely relaxed and natural.

39 years of being a makeup artist, makeup artist educator, beauty therapist and beauty educator and fashion stylist ensures you get the best quality care on your wedding day.

Trial or Zoom?

Southern Highlands Hair and Makeup Artist

For me a trial is not important, it is an added expense for you which is usually not needed – if you love my style – I will create the perfect look for you without the time and effort a trial takes. 

If you are not sure that what you want is going to work for you – then we can do a trial so that you can try it out!

If you need a trial because you are not sure if I can do the style you want – I am not your ideal makeup and hair stylist and I recommend you find your perfect match. 

I do insist though that we have a Zoom/Google appointment. 

The reason I like to make contact with you face to face is because I like to work with you to help you design your whole look – it also allows you to meet me. It is important for you know who is going to spend your special morning with you getting your ready for your wedding day.

When you have a zoom or trial with me you also receive a glowing skin and wellness consultation valued at $100


Other possible costs

Full size lipstick (s) to top up for you and your bridal party can be organised for you – this is the only cost which I don’t quote up front as it can differ depending on make of lipstick and number of lipsticks needed.

Full day bookings where I stay with you throughout the photos till the start of the reception with the option of hair changes and or makeup changes – please enquire for pricing if this is something you feel you would like.

Starting time for everyone’s sanity is no earlier than 7 am – if you need me to start earlier it is $100 per hour before 7 am.
