Hair and makeup-who paid for what?

I am paying for myself, my bridesmaids, jr bridesmaid, and flower girl but will not be requiring it for anyone. I will not be paying for either of our moms. Usually if you're requiring them to have professional hair and makeup done, then it's a nice gesture to pay for it. If you're not requiring it and don't want to pay, then I would let everyone know how first much it costs and ask who is interested.

My bridesmaids are covering their hair/makeup costs (if they choose to have their hair and/or makeup professionally done). I booked a hair/makeup artist whose prices were within everyone's budget, and am letting everyone decide whether they want to have it done. Typically, if you are requesting that they all get their hair and/or makeup professionally done, then you should cover the cost for them. Otherwise, it's fine to ask them to cover their own costs if they get to choose whether to do it or not.

I am covering the hair and makeup costs for my bridesmaids and my mom. I wanted them all to feel beautiful and confident standing in front of other people, and did not want money to prevent some of them from having that feeling.

I am not requiring anyone to have hair and makeup professionally done. I am paying for myself, my MOH, and my bridesmaids if they want their hair done and they have agreed to pay for their dresses. I am not a big makeup person, so everyone is responsible for either doing their own makeup or paying for it themselves.

I am only paying for myself- it is not a requirement to get it done, I outlined the cost for them and let them decide if they wanted it or not.

My mother paid for the girls hair and makeup (7 people in total: bride, bridesmaids, mothers). I was going to pay it regardless because my girls were thinking of going to get it done themselves or do it themselves. I couldn't let them do that because I needed them ready to go by 1pm for pictures. Some of them tend to sleep in, wait it off a few hours, and they are pretty slow at getting ready so because I knew my girls so well I told them that it would be taken cared of. (We all stayed together the night before so we can all get ready together.)

So, if it is within your budget then go ahead and pay for all the girls. If it is not then just be firm and let them know that you need them ready by a certain time. Again, I couldn't let my girls do that because three of them tend to be late ALL the time LOL.

I covered all the costs for hair, makeup, manicures, and pedicures for all of my bridesmaids + my mom and MIL. If you don't want to cover these costs for your wedding party then you can make hair and makeup optional

I have it optional for my girls and I gave them the quoted price from my HMUA, and asked who is interested in each service. Everyone wanted hair so I'm toying with the idea of paying for that for them if we have the money, but I haven't told anyone that.

I paid for both for my girls. I'm only having my sister and sister in law as my bridesmaids, but I got ready with (and had my hair and makeup paid for) by two close friends at their weddings, so I wanted them to get their hair and makeup done with me.

Mine is also more than I expected. I’m paying hair and makeup for myself, my mother, my MIL and my maid of honor and one bridesmaid. But if I had more in my wedding party I might’ve picked one or the other

View Quoted Comment Thank you!! That was what I was thinking but kept hearing different things

View Quoted Comment Thank you! I appreciate your input!

View Quoted Comment Lolllll I didn’t even think of that. Crap 🤦🏽‍♀️

View Quoted Comment I’m in that boat too. I might pay for hair but it really depends where the budget is at that time

I paid for myself and gave my bridal party the option to use my hair and makeup artist at their own expense. Most chose to have their hair done, but did their own makeup, which I was completely fine with.

I told my bridesmaids that I would pay for makeup (the more expensive option) if they paid for their own hair, although it's up to them to utilize the stylists. I know the cost of being in a bridal party is also high, and 2 of my 4 bridesmaids live across the country. I'm doing my best to help out with costs, but also achieve the looks I want everyone to have for the wedding day.
