A wedding day is one of the most important day in someone’s life and some people especially the bride don’t mind to splurge money to make sure their wedding day is the perfect day of their life.
But to some people, wedding day does not necessarily need to be big and exclusive as they need to be under their budget. However, while staying under budget, the bride to be need to be considerate of other too. This make up artist has shared his frustration upon knowing the budget allocated by a customer for the make up and hairdo. His post on Facebook has massed over 955 likes and 1.1K shares.
The original post read as;
“Please respect Makeup Artist ! Even a water color painting or kids art craft tools is way more than RM100 . Ridiculous ! She appoint me and mine was over her budget (I don’t charge that expensive lol)
I thought of intro other makeup artist for her .So i ask her what’s your budget ?
she say RM100- RM200 for a wedding makeup and hairdo . i was shocked ! I understand all fields of business are having a tough time now , But this price is seriously humiliating an artist man …. First time I see such budget with RM100 , I rather you request a sponsor at least wont sound so bad .

Netizen’s responses
▼ Another options to get a cheaper make up service.
▼ She need to consider of the transportation, product cost and service cost too!
▼ Some think that as a make up artist he should just gently explain to her about the market rate.
▼ All bride-to-be, please take note of this!
▼ Isn’t it to make a horror make will cost more?
▼ Imagine if it is for a grand wedding with over 1000 guests?
▼ This make up artist is not alone in this matter.
▼ Let’s normalise to appreciate other’s hard work and pay them accordingly to their services!
Almost every business is having a hard times due to MCO, so as a customer, let all be considerate and show them some support. And to business owner, let’s be understanding that not all customers well aware of the current market value.
