Bridesmaid won't dye her hair

My bridesmaid has dyed her hair this week a horrible pink colour and I am getting married next saturday. Am i being unreasonable to ask her to dye it back or uninvite her from the wedding?

For context she is incredibly self-centered and always wants the attention to be focused on herself and I think she has done it just to stick out in the photos.

I’m assuming this is a reverse... not of course you can’t ask her to dye her hair or uninvite her!

I'm kind of torn, I mean it really wouldn't bother me at all but the timing of dying her hair an odd colour does seem calculated aswell.

Why did you ask a woman you obviously dislike to be your bridesmaid?

This is a reverse and I hate reverses 😭

YANBU to refuse to dye your hair back and the bride sounds like an awful bitch. But YABU for doing a reverse because they are manipulative and on something like this everyone would agree with you anyway! No one is going to support the bride here! Just be honest!

If you already knew that about her and you think her hair is about standing out, why did you ask her to be bridesmaid?
From the sounds of it, you would have been expecting something like this

I think pink is a lovely hair colour. If you are that pathetic to worry about your bridesmaid hair colour then get rid of her as a bridesmaid else deal with it! Simple! Hmm

Get the rest to dye theirs different colours and lie on top of each other. You dye yours gold and wear a black dress. You can be the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

No of course you can’t ask/tell her to dye it back, or dis-invite her. You surely wouldn’t have asked someone other than a friend or relative to be your bridesmaid - you wanted her there. Yes, she will ‘stick out’ in the photos....but not in a good way.

It does seem suspicious if you know she is an attention seeker. What a conundrum! It seems unreasonable to ask her to dye her hair but at the same time if she did it on purpose its unreasonable of her to think she can be so darn right up herself!

Ask yourself this..

If she always had pink hair would you have ever asked her to be your bridesmaid?

Tbf I had copper red hair for a while before my brother got married, his lovely wife asked me to be bridesmaid and picked hot pink dresses. I knew my hair would clash so I dyed it blonde for the wedding (which actually looked really nice on me so I ended up staying blonde - still am 5 years later!)
I personally didn’t want to look a dick

The bride WBU to ask you to dye it back however I think any bridesmaid that dyes their hair bright pink a week before the wedding is an attention seeking sick. Everyone will know it too.

I wouldn’t say your bridesmaid wanted the attention on your day (as if, come on let’s be real here) but she probably also didn’t feel like her hair choices had anything to do with anyone else.
