[jenseib]

[lissaD02]

I read on here somewhere else that the FGIT are absolutely not to take tips...I think it was one of the FGIT who posted it.

I don't know if this has been discussed, so I apologize.

I'm looking through the beginning of the thread, and I see flip flops for the Princess dresses. Are they comfortable? Do they hold up well?

We've bought multiple Princess shoes through the years (my sister is 10, so more than a couple of years) and they just don't hold up well with our kids. Like, they don't make it around the block trick or treating sort of abuse. I'm pretty sure my three year old will be in sneakers (or her cowboy boots if she gets her way) but the flip flops look eye catching to me.

I am very excited! I found my DD (10) a dress from Pirates of the Carribean- the Elizabeth wedding dress.

She is very excited to go to BBB, but thought she was a little old for some of the dresses, but wanted something special. I think this dress will look great with a tiara- a special day.

I tipped our three FGIT's during our Memorial Day trip this year. They were all VERY appreciative! Not sure if something has changed since then though?

 

[Nettaboo]

Can someone tell me their experience with BBB and African American hair??
MY DD will most likely have braids(single) when we go because it will be easier to manage her hair with the swimming and sweating... I am thinking that maybe they can still do the bun because she will have single braids??

 

[MsFGIT]

FGITs can absolutely accept tips. Whether or not you choose to tip your FGIT is entirely up to you. Tips can be accepted in cash form only.

I believe the confusion lies here: Before the BBB opened in the Magic Kingdom, FGITs in Downtown Disney were NOT allowed to accept tips. Even after the castle BBB opened, tips could not be accepted by FGITs at either location for about a week. Then, a new system was developed, rules were set in place, and suddenly we were allowed to accept tips. At both locations. So yes, tips ARE accepted and much appreciated.

We are going in March and planning this for my DD7. She wants Jasmine. I don't know if anyone has posted and I missed them some how but has anyone else dressed up as Jasmine and could they post pics for my daughter to see?? Also my daughter has shoulder length hair and it will no grow a lot between now and then. Will they be able to do the princess style for her?

My DD7 had chin length bobbed hair. Her FGIT simply pulled up as much as she could into the ponytail to create the bun. The remainder of her hair was left down. I must say that only a small portion of her hair was left down, so I would imagine that with shoulder length hair, she should be good to go. Good luck!

Does anyone know how much the minnie dress\ shoes\ headband cost at Disney? My Daughter wants this outfit. We have Ressi's for the boutique when we are there in Dec. Just wanted to know a price on the outfit? I know about the packages, I don't really want to do the photo's this time.

Thank you for clarifying that. I knew I had read somewhere that tips weren't allowed...glad that policy was changed. Afterall, we have tipped Mike at the Barbershop in MK for years...he is such a great guy. I will have to remember to take cash...so used to using my KTTK card. Boy, if you hadn't written this, I would have looked like a real cheap skate! How embarrassing. Thanks again!

 

[CharacterFan]

question about hair length. My hair is about 16 inches and I'm planning on getting the fairytale Princess hair do. Is that do long? I don't want my bun to be so big it looks like I came from the 80s?

Thanks.
