my sister is getting married and she has three other sisters (including myself). she is going to have three maidens of honor, her three sisters. is it traditional these days for all of the bridesmaids to get their hair styled the same way, and in this case, for all of the maidens of honor to get their hair styled the same way?

It comes down to this:
"Whatever the bride wants!"
Each of you, hopefully, will have your turn as brides. At that time, you'll be able to make this determination for yourselves, for that will be your day to shine.
Now, it's your sister's turn. One day she may want each of you to have the same hairstyle, while she wants each of you styled distinctly the next day. Just be flexible, as the wedding planning period can be a little crazy--especially for the bride. No matter what, that day is a celebration of your sister and her fiance's love and commitment. Be as supportive to her as you can, and let her be the bride in all her glory!

I had a pretty simple wedding by today's standards, but if I had to do it all over again, it would be simpler still. I'd still get married in the same church or a nice location, but it would be a bit smaller and with fewer people. Most of the weddings today I think are way over the top and the money spent on one day could go toward a house, or toward saving for one or for other more meaningful things the couple will need. The day is a total blur anyway - I remember a few things but it was busy hectic, fun day and we didn't spend a fortune. And you don't get to spend much time with people if you have a huge crowd. You can spend more time with people who are close to you if the wedding is smaller. My nephew and his fiancee are planning a simple wedding and I think they are smart. Simple does not have to be cheap and can be really nice.

I was the maid of honor in a wedding several years ago where the other bridesmaids and the bride had their hair all done the same way. Since I lived out of state and had short hair, it worked out fine. For my own wedding last year, everyone could wear their hair anyway they liked and however looked best on them. I don't think everybody needs to look the same - I like seeing variety.

Depends on what the bride wants- sometime she want the all style the same way or doesn't care. Find out if the bride is planning to take you guys to a salon or are your responsible for your own hair? The bride is suppose to pay for at least part of your hair being done which a lot of brides cheapen out on. Last 2 wedding I was in, we did it as a group and the bride paid for the whole thing.

I've never seen bridesmaids with their hair all styled the same. Everyone has different length hair, so that would be a difficult requirement. If the bride wants you all to have the same hair style and it doesn't require anyone to cut or dye their current hair...then what's the harm.

No...you can have your hair however you want to. It's a nice thing to go have them all done at the same time the morning of the wedding (including the bride)...but there's not a set way to wear your hair, unless the bride says there is.

It's really up to the bride! If she likes the look of everyone having the same hair style, then you should respect that. If she doesn't care what you do, then style it however you feel comfortable!

It's totally up to the bride - if an updo is the choice then all the bridesmaids should have an updo of the same or similar style.

historically the maids of honour wore a dress similar to the bride's, to confuse evil spirits. so in that way- yes. but times have changed since then. now it is all about what the bride envisions. there is no rule about hair style, finger nail polish, make-up etc. it is just whatever she wants. hopefully she will want you all to look your best :D

no - it is not traditional and most of the people that had that type of stuff done for their weddings really regretted it when they got the pictures back. You want individuality to show through in some way - shoes, jewelry, hair, etc.
