Makeup and Hair Artistry is part of the creative industries, and unlike a corporate or bureaucratic environment, it's free-for-all. Anybody can claim to be a makeup artist, so it's up to the consumer to discern professional versus amateur artists. It's not a shock when you see artist 'steal' images from senior artists from another state, or another country and claim it as their own work in their portfolios! The bottom line is, the consumer really need to be responsible and do their research, especially in the area that they live in, and find out what the "average" cost of a makeup & hair on-location artists charge. What other artist in other states charge is not relevant information. Here is a useful blog post: "What you should know before hiring a makeup artist" and some things you can look out for!
