I think its disgusting to ask someone to pay for their own hair or dress if they have asked you to be their bridesmaid, if they cant afford to provide it for you then they shoudlnt have asked. If i were you i'd go with your hair in a right mess out of principle

This is the way I look at it
The bridesmaids in a wedding cant make their own dresses, sleep in their cars, ect. So those things are normal things that they would pay for.
They can however do their own hair and make-up, that is something that if the bride wants, is an extra and I believe she should pay for something like that.
You, however, wont know unless you speak to your bride about what she expects of you. This girl has asked you to be in her wedding, I think as her maid of honor right? Which means that you both have a close enough relationship where you could ask her without it being offensive. So talk to her!

Generally the bridesmaids pay for there dress, shoes, hair, makeup etc. unless the bride offers to pay for it, the bride provides the flowers that they will be carrying, and in return for you being in there wedding they generally take you to a nice dinner and get you a bridesmaids gift, its a little way of thanking you for wanting to share in her day, its not there intention to be mean by making you pay for your own dress, its just the bride has many more things she needs to take care of, usually the bridesmaid just pay for there own things.

I've never heard of another way to do it.
The bridesmaid pays for their own dresses.
As far as hairdo's (or if the bride insists everyone have professional makeup, or whatever), a lot of times the bride covers it, but not always. The thinking is that it's an understood that you'll wear the dress to match and look good in the pictures. With hair, you could do it yourself, so that's an added expense.
Plus, it's just not nice to make you pay for that, when you're already paying for your dress, shoes, possibly jewelry, bachelorette party or shower, and other costs related to being there for the rehearsal and wedding.
Talk to the bride, in a non-confrontational way. Ask if she can find an inexpensive alternative to everyone having professional updo's.

The reason why you are getting two different answers are because its up to the bride to either pay for the bridemaids. You as a bridemaid are suspose to pay for everything that you will be wearing (dress , shoes and accessories) you are also suspose to pay for your hair do and makeup (if dont proffessionly) The flowers for your bouquets are the only thing that the bride must pay for. But if she is generous and wants to spend extra money on her wedding party than she will let you know so you dont have to. If she's not paying for your dress than most likely she's not going to be paying for your hair.

Yeah you're only right suited on all counts. a million. Paul writes fairly plenty no longer something approximately Jesus, he only harps on approximately how super he's. He would not actual supply any genuine info. 2. nicely, you may write fiction in first guy or woman can not you? however the later gospels surely get extra fantastical than the quicker ones. working example Mark has Mary and somebody else looking an empty tomb. Matthew or Luke (i think of that's Luke) has an angel cannonballing down from heaven, zapping the two Roman guards with a death ray, telekenetically strikes the boulder and then sits on suitable of it to have a communique with Mary and the different mourners. that's not purely the plaguarism, that's the gildings that supply it away. Little bits get added and added till it starts off to sound like a comedian approximately superheroes. 3. That one is spot on. The gospels have the sunlight putting at midday whilst Jesus dies, earthquakes, zombie plagues (no heavily) yet no longer one community, cutting-edge Roman pupil theory that a zombie plague is nicely worth a point out.

it is not dif in america or UK. Bridesmaids pay for their own hair, makeup, dresses, shoes, etc. The bride only gives a gift later before the wedding to them (like a nice necklace)

I am a bride and I am paying for my bridemaids to get their hair and makeup done. I think it is a toss up with paying for the dress, but it isn't uncommon. I think having your bridesmaids pay for their hair and makeup is ridiculous.

bridesmaid pays for her own stuff, not the bride. if you cant afford it or dont want to put the money out then that is when you decline to be in the wedding.

Bridesmaids pay for everything they wear and do (hair, makeup) unless the bride/groom say otherwise.
Er, oops, this is USA though.
