mua and Hair

Kaylynn, on November 12, 2019 at 12:51 PM Posted in Hair and Makeup 0 7
I wanted to see what others are doing. I told all my girls if they wanted to pay to get their make up with me great I'll add them on the beautify list and make it happen if not, it's not a huge deal because they all do their make up wonderfully already! Now when it comes to hair I am wanting them all to get it done. If I make it a requirement for them to get their hair done should I be paying for that or is that part of things they agree to when saying yes to being a bridesmaid? I just dont want to seem unreasonable. Everything is pretty formal looking in the wedding crew.
Side note- when it came to dresses I told them a color and floor length were my only 2 requirements so I would like to tie the look together some how.

    Yes if you’re requiring they get their hair professionally done then you need to pay for it.

    Agree with Kelly. If it's a requirement, the bride pays. If it's an option, the bridesmaids can pay.

    I am never sure of the proper etiquette on these things, but I will be purchasing my bridesmaid’s dress and paying to get her makeup done. I figure if I asked her to be in my wedding and purchase a certain kind of dress, then I should pay for it. And although I’m not requiring her to have her makeup done professionally, I think making sure she feels beautiful & confident walking down the aisle and having her picture taken is a nice “thank you” for standing with me during such an important event.

    Hi Katelyn,

    I gave my girls the option to have their hair and makeup done professionally or do it themselves. My only requirement was that whether or not they were going to get it done professionally, I just wanted them there with me on the day of the wedding. I think that if you are making hair a requirement to be done professionally you should pay for it yourself. It kind of stinks because I totally understand that you want it to look beautiful, but that would be the right thing to do.

    If you make it required it’s probably best you pay as others have said. If it seems like they’re receptive to the idea of paying themselves for makeup they may be willing to pay also for the hair, however if you leave it optional and at their own expense you may have someone who isn’t willing to pay for it, at which time you’ll have to decide if it’s more important that everyone has it at your own expense.
