Are women to not cut their hair or wear make-up?

[grandmakim]

I have been involved with a group that showed me scriptures against women cutting their hair, wearing makeup and wearing pants. What is the Catholic teaching on this and could you please give scriptures with your answer so I can compare. Thank you very much.
