Are most people....

Paying for their bridesmaids hair & makeup?

I have no idea what I should be doing here...I have bought all the girls the sashes for their dresses $35/person and am thinking of buying them either

A. Hair OR makeup
B. Both hair & makeup (but as my gift to them for the wedding)
C. Just offering them to use & pay for the services I am getting & getting them something else as my thank you gift like jewelry or a bag.

Thoughts? What is everyone else doing?

I'm not offering to pay for their hair/make-up, however I'm also not forcing them to have their hair/make-up professionally done.

I'm giving them $50 towards hair/mu. Some of my girls won't use the hair and some wont' use the makeup so I'm just gonna ask ahead of time what they want

Re: Are most people....

I'm not paying for either but I'm also not telling them what/where to do it.

I paid for their makeup as part of their gifts

Re: Are most people....

I am not paying for their hair and makeup but I left it up to them if they wanted to get it done professionally. I am going to get them their BM's gifts plus pay for their mani and pedi for the wedding

Re: Are most people....

i'm not bc i'm giving them a choice (well not really with hair but with makeup), and bc i don't want to give them a 'gift' that will only benefit my wedding. i am giving them doj and yea it will benefit my wedding, but they are pearls and they'll be able to wear it other places too!

Re: Are most people....

I'm paying $50 towards peeps who want to get their hair professionally done (the price is $100) and then I got them a super cute clutch.

For the 2 people who aren't getting their hair done, I will get them DOJ I think.
