Bridesmaid Gift

Does paying for the bridesmaids to have their make up done by a pro and their hair done sound like a good gift?

unfortunately if you're requiring your girls to get their hair/mu done and you're paying for it it doesn't count as a gift. It's nice of you to pay for it, but you should probably look into getting them something in addition to it.

Not if it's getting their hair/make up done for the wedding, no. If you mean a gift certificate for a salon to be used at their leisure, yes.

If you're requiring them to get their hair and makeup done, you need to pay. It isn't a gift.

I wouldn't pay to have my hair and makeup done as a bridesmaid, so it wouldn't be a gift that I'd appreciate.

Shop for BM gifts as if it is for a birthday gift. What stores to they love? What are their hobbies and interests? Favorite sports teams? Do they collect anything? Go from there.

Paying for BM hair/makeup/nails etc is very nice and you can do so if you wish, but it should not be a part of their gift.

Like others have said, if you are requiring them to get it done or have it for their wedding, you pay for it and it is not considred a gift.

Bridesmaid gifts don't have to be large or elaborite, get them something you can afford.

Sorry. It's what you want, and that's fine, but if someone told me I was getting my hair and makeup done for free, my first thought would be, "What's wrong with me? What's wrong with how I look?" I wouldn't consider it a gift -- more like fulfilling an obligation.
