    My club has a makeup artist on some Fri and Sat nights, she charges $10 and $20 for makeup and lashes. She probably does makeup for 10-20 girls a night (we have anywhere from 40-70 girls on weekends). She works at MAC so she's pretty good. I have only had my makeup done by her once because I think I do okay on my own.

    We don't have anyone that does hair, usually we help each other lol. I would totally love to have someone do my hair while I'm doing my makeup to cut down on primping time!

    How much does your club's makeup artist charge per girl?
    It's free but you have to tip, and if you want fake eyelashes it's an extra $3.

    Does she do hair?
    If she has time, it's not part of her gig.

    How many girls use her each night?
    The majority.

    How long has she been there? Is she the resident artist?
    Probably a couple years. Yes she is the resident artist.

    How many girls does your club have?
    Depends on the season. 30-100.

    What would your club be considered? Upscale, Dive, Midrange, Neighborhood Bar?
    Mid-range. Party atmosphere.

    If your club had a makeup artist, would you use her services?
    No, she makes my makeup too light.

    If your club had a girl who does hair, would you use her services?
    No. I am avoiding the damages of heat!

    I've never worked in a club that had that option. I would only pay her if she made me look gorgeous.

    Our MUA is a he, not a she.
    He charges anywhere from $20 to $35 depending on what you want done (ranging from a simple eye look without fake lashes, to a full face). I usually get him to do my eyes with lashes, which is $25. Most girls tip more, though, b/c he is fantastic at what he does.

    No, he doesn't do hair.

    Most of the girls use him. I always get there early on weekend nights b/c he always has a long waiting list by the time night shift starts.

    He's been there for longer than I have, so I don't know how long. Not sure what you mean by "resident", but he comes in on Fri and Sat nights.

    My club is upscale, and I'm not sure exactly how many dancers are on, but it's a LOT. On a weekend night I'm lucky to get onstage twice.

    Our MUA is self-taught, but is now going to school for cosmetology.

    And no I wouldn't pay someone to do my hair. I can do that perfectly fine for myself for free. I could not, on the other hand, seem to do eye makeup if my life depended on it.

    $7 for eyes
    $10 full face
    $10 hair

    Does she do hair?
    yes he does.

    10 or so, I don't really know. He's there for 3 hours.

    How long has she been there? Is she the resident artist?
    Much longer than I have! I would guess 5+ years. Yes

    How many girls does your club have?
    Depends on the season. 30-100.

    What would your club be considered? Upscale, Dive, Midrange, Neighborhood Bar?
    Mid-range

    He went to some fancy school I can't remember the name of.
    I often use him for eyes and occasionally for hair.

    We don't have one. No, I wouldn't use one, nor would I use a hairdresser. I know how to do hair/makeup as well as anyone they'd put in the dressing room, and I would never spend time and money on something like that.

    Thanks for the responses girls. I think I'm done dancing (yep, that's right) so I'm applying at MAC Cosmetics and thinking about doing freelance makeup at clubs in my area. The feedback helps, so please keep it coming.

    10 bucks hair, 10 bucks makeup, 5 bucks eyeslashes.


    you can have him do your makeup, if you wanna wind up looking like a "sexy, fierce" TRANNY. He does a really good job with hair tho.

    He makes your eyes look pretty, maybe he just hates me. He took that bobbi brown gel BLACK eyeliner and used it on my eyebrows. "OMG YOU LOOK FIERCE WOMAN!"

    Fierce. I think he meant I look like a farce.
