Question about Makeup and Hair for your BMs

Okay, so I pretty much gave my girls the option to where their hair and makeup however they wish and to use whoever they wish, but I have this feeling that at the last minute, they'll be at my house and want their hair and/or makeup done. I hired an MA who is on the side, so I was thinking of having someone else come to the house if they wanted their makeup done, but then again, I don't want someone coming and they won't be needed, if I'm making any sense. Should I ask them in advance if they think they will be wanting to have their hair and/or makeup done at my house and make sure they get back to me soon? Or is this too soon to think of?

What is everyone doing for this?

Thanks!

Re: Question about Makeup and Hair for your BMs

When I asked and gave prices to the BMs in the spring, more of them leaned toward having their make up done. In November, when I asked again to make sure, only one or two of them were still interested.
You could ask them now just to get an idea, but be prepared for the number to drop as your wedding date gets closer.

ETA - I forgot to mention that anyone who initially said that they wanted their hair done has kept with that.

Re: Question about Makeup and Hair for your BMs

I asked them all what they wanted to do, and they all opted to have their m/up and hair done at my house.

what you could do is ask them, and if they say they want to go it alone, ask them to have it confirmed and booked by a certain date (and to give the info to you). if they don't have something set by the date you give them, let them know you'll be expecting them bright and early on your front porch!

Re: Question about Makeup and Hair for your BMs

I would definitely ask them. In the weddings I've been in before, the bride has mentioned she wanted all of our hair done but we could decide if we wanted our make up professionally done or not. Most people opted against the professional make up.
