Wedding Hair?

I have a problem. Two of my friends want to do my hair on my wedding day. One is my usual hairdresser who has done me continual favors (hair-wise) all year for 3 years now, and the other one is one of my very best friends (who is also a hairdresser). I really don't care who does it as far as the ability goes (they are both very qualified). The friend that is not my usual hairdresser lives out of town and never does my hair (on a regular basis). I feel loyalty to my custom hairdresser, but don't want to hurt my very good friend's feelings either. Any ideas?Wedding Hair?
Let your usual hairdresser friend do your hair...





Suggest your other friend does your make up?Wedding Hair?
Is your best friend also going to be a bridesmaid? Maybe she could do all the other bridesmaids' hair, and your hairdresser could do yours.


If you'd rather have your stylist do it, tell your friend that since it would be kinda hard to practice the style you want before the wedding since she's out of town, you'll just make it easier for everyone by having your hairdresser do it.


Or if you'd rather have your friend do it, tell your stylist you're on a major budget for the wedding and can't afford a stylist on the big day.
simple, have your hairdresser do your hair - that's her job, and let your friend be your friend - that's her job.
I would go with my usual hair dresser, she might be your friend too, but who would you want to enjoy the day more, probably the one who is from out of town.
Use your reg. hair dresser and send possible wedding hair photos to your friend for her approval and thoughts. That way, she feels informed and helpful and your hair dresser won't be upset.
Perhaps you can split them up? Let the best friend do your hair for the rehersal dinner or the bachelorette. Let your usualy hairdresser do the hair on wedding day.





Or, if you think they won't find it offensive, have a ';hair off';. Each will do an up-do for you and pick the best one. Let the other do the hair for the bridal party.





Whatever you choose just make sure you honestly explain to both of them that you love them both equally and think they are both amazing hairdressers but seeing as you only have one head......
If your friend is in your wedding, I would go with your usual hairdresser and tell her that you want her to enjoy your special day WITH you and you don't want her to work on that day. Tell her that you already asked your hairdresser that usually does your hair. Hopefully she won't be offended and will just enjoy your day with you.


IF she isn't in your wedding, maybe one could do yours and another could do some of the bridal party or your mom's hair.
Uh, toughie. Is your best friend also your maid of honor or does she have any other functions in your wedding? If so, then she shouldn't be too upset if someone else does your hair.
Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life, and I would trust your hair to the person who normally does it. She will have a better understanding of your style, and beware of problems (like pouffiness). Explain to your other friend that you would rather have your normal stylist do it. I think she would understand.
I think you should go with your usuall hairdresser, if your friend lives out of town I'm sure they will understand that you half to have things arranged in a timely manner and just tell them it would be easier to go to the one thats closer.
Tell your best friend thank you, but you really need her to be there for you in other ways--not to be your hairdressor. Tell her you already have other plans for her and you don't want her getting her hands dirty.
