Hair stylist asking for $ in advance?

My hair stylist is going to come to the location to do our hair.  She asked for a final headcount and then also asked if I could get all the money from everyone in advance because "I really don't like to get paid the day of because it usually never works out because everyone is rushing or they end up writing a check so it would be a huge favor to me if you could get together all the info and gather hair money from everyone."   

She's also a friend and guest at the wedding.  Something about her asking for it in advance is rubbing me the wrong way.  I'm just not comfortable asking my girls to fork it over before they even get it done! What if they don't like it?  Is this the normal practice for on-location hair?

Re: Hair stylist asking for $ in advance?

  • i dont know about giving her all the money beforehand, it just screams "bad news" to me.

    i think a down payment would be acceptable. tell her you can get her the money for part of it but will have to give the rest to her the day of.  and if she doesnt want checks, then just make sure your girls bring cash
