Ask Jillian: Hair, Makeup and Wardrobe on "The Bachelorette"

“Do the girls on the Bachelor, and you as the Bachelorette, get hair, makeup, and wardrobe?” -Ashley McDonald
I don’t know about now, but back on my season… no. For "The Bachelor" there were ladies there to touch us up on the first rose ceremony but that was about it. As the Bachelorette I did ALL my own makeup, which taught me a lot- haha! Powder, fake eyelashes and lots of bronzer are your best friend when you’re on TV- unfortunately I learned that a little too late…
Wardrobe is NOT provided to the girls on “The Bachelor,” however I was totally spoiled as the Bachelorette and had ALL the clothes supplied and got to keep a majority of them – I felt like I won the lottery. I have since donated about 70 percent of them to charity :)
Have a Bachelorette related question for me? Leave it below!

I second Renee's question.
What's the one item (clothing or otherwise) that you will likely always hold on to from your time on the bachelorette?
Hi Miss Harris,
I'm curious about one thing. In almost every episode we see the women (on The Bachelor) almost always holding a drink in their hands. Is alcohol liberally given? Are the contestants required to drink or be seen drinking? Is it done with a certain expectation that it will create drama or unguarded responses that will cause more drama? Please let me know. Thanks.
