Bridesmaid question

I need some help.
I have 6 bridesmaids ( and 3 junior).
I have bought them all their DO necklace ( lia Sophia) and either a massage or facial.
However my girls have been so great. We went to Miami for my bachelorette and they paid for EVERYTHING. They are also each putting some money towards my shower and they r buying me gifts. Way to generous.
I want to thank them and help some with their costs, yet I'm on a budget myself. I was thinking of paying for their hair. I was going to make them a fake gift certificate and give it to them Sunday at my surprise shower. Here's my question , is it tacky to pay for just half of the cost of hair? Do I do all or nothing ?

My friend paid only $50.00 towards hair. I think hair came out to $70-80

Re: Bridesmaid question

Oh and I agree, jsut go with something a little less pricey, maybe personlaized hangers, or personalized compact from things remembered. Or a clutch, macy's is having Friends & family until Sunday....HTH

Re: Bridesmaid question

I agree with the other ladies - all or nothing for the hair. If you have room in your budget for something extra for your girls, then go for it. Just don't go over it.

Re: Bridesmaid question

How about planning a trip to the nail salon the day before the wedding and paying for mani/pedis,?

Re: Bridesmaid question

For those who asked, the shower is supposed to be a surprise, but my friends and family are so obvious it is scary.
I have decided to pay for their hair. I have a poem I am printing and putting in a frame and the last line will state that their hair is on me . I will give them this gift at the shower. :)
