Tipping the hairstylist

My fiance's friend is doing my hair, my mom, his mom, one bridesmaid, and the flower girl for free.

How much should I give her for that??

I would tip 15-20% of the total cost.

But it's free, there is no cost

Wow that's great that she's doing all that for free. Around $50 maybe? That's what I'd do.

Duhhhh I completely did not read that part I guess you should just figure out what you would have paid if you had used someone else.....maybe $150 or so for your hair, about $75 for the moms & BM, and $40 for the FG?

I'd give her $150-$200.

That's what I was thinking, $150. She's doing it as her wedding gift to us, but 5 people is above and beyond... so i figured $150 was enough to say thank you without making her feel like she didn't give us a gift...
