Would you rather... do your own makeup, or do your own hair?

If you could only splurge for a professional for one thing... which would you chose to do yourself? Would you rather... do your own makeup, or do your own hair? Next Question: Would you rather... be on Four Weddings or Say Yes To The Dress? Previous Question: Would you rather... have a guest show up...

    Hands down do my own hair... I'm good at that. Make-up not so much

    I would rather do my own hair. I could always do an updo. Make up I’m not great at and would much rather have a professional do it.

    For sure do my own hair. Even my hairdresser knows this, haha. Makeup I could let someone else if they like to do dramatic.

    Do my own makeup, it might be very simple but I am not good with doing nice things with my hair and it staying because I have really thick hair and a lot of it.

    I would do my own make up. I have lots of practice from performing and do a lot of fancy looks on myself all the time anyway. But I get super frustrated trying to get a hairstyle close to what I want for the wedding done on myself. I usually use pre-styled wigs to perform so I dont have to deal with the hair.

    My own hair. I know the bad spots, the areas that hold a curl better than others. I'm good at my makeup, but i'd like to have someone else do it that day so it stays put better

    By far, do both myself. Don't want a pro for a special event even if free. Ever. Unless injured hand, as has happened. An excellent present as I was about to turn 16, and would be traveling and living abroad for most of 18 months, my grandmother and auntie paid a HMUA instructor to give me a series of lessons. Wonderful for self confidence, and work. Whether my hair is long, shoulder length or short, in an updo, braided do, or down, I can take a shower, do my hair, do makeup, and dress usually in 45 minutes. Did for my wedding. Whenever I put my hair up, quickly and skillfully, I give a word of thanks for those 2 special people. And, I have very easy to work with hair.

    My own make up. I can do simple make up and it would look okay. My hair I am not good at all with.

    My own makeup for sure. I feel I know my face best anyway, and had already planned to do it myself! As far as hair goes, I’ll need help with a nice updo!

    My own hair! I don’t wear much makeup and I’m not experienced with it.

    I suck at both but I would rather do my own hair. I don't know how to "woman" very well so I don't know ANYTHING about make up.

    My baby sister who is going to school for cosmetology will be doing my hair and makeup (she Voulenteered) but if put in the situation where I had to do one myself I would pick makeup. I can at least make my face look mostly not like I just climbed straight out of Oscars trash can, doing my own hair on the other hand? Disasterous.

    Neither. I'm hiring a pro for a reason.
