Are you having your hair up or down??

Posted in Wedding Attire 53

I have really long hair so I really want to have my hair down. After looking at some gorgeous updo's, now I'm not really sure what I want to do. Both looks are so gorgeous but I always feel like having my hair down is more flattering for myself as I rarely ever wear my hair down. What are your plans...

What are your plans for hair? Or what did you have for your big day? Why did you choose up/down? I need some inspiration.

    I'm deciding to do it in a lose bun/down because I don't want to be fiddling with my hair all night long!

    I'm either doing down with braided back sides. OR a french plait.

    It depends on the weather. Incredibly long hair + gales = bad time.

    Down. I don't like the way I look with my hair up.

    I'm having it down or half up. I hate my hair all the way up. Makes me face look fat

    I'm going with an updo because I want it to last all day/ night, and it'll be hot in August! Smiley smile

    Mine will be up. It's going to be warm out, the ceremony is outdoors so worried about wind, and the back of my dress is awesome! Even without any of those reasons, I think having it up will just look better with the style of my dress. It's a v neck with very wide straps, and if I wore my hair down I think between dress and hair my face would be overwhelmed in the photos.

    I had it up because my hair gets piece-y when it's down and I sweat or move around a lot (I surprisingly didn't sweat a lot at the wedding considering how much I was moving and dancing lol).

    Also, I had 2 different hair trials. The first one I wanted like Jennifer's 2nd photo, but I have a lot of thin, silky hair, and it just did not want to give a big enough braid. So I did a low swirl to one side. It also showed off my custom earrings. Smiley smile

    As of now it will be up, I've changed my mind a couple times but i constantly want to mess/touch my hair and its kinda thin and will be just at my shoulders by next year. I'm thinking a french twist. But I would think of your hair type and when you think you've looked your best.

    Mine was half up. My dress was strapless...I ended up absolutely loving it. It was a very unique hairstyle in my opinion, I combined several hairstyles I found online that I liked different aspects of.

    Going half up/half down. This is my inspiration photo. I've been growing my hair out for a few years so I want to show it off.

    I wore my hair all down. I was originally going to have a half up half down but I typically wear my hair up but my DH loves when my hair is down and curly. I also feel way prettier and sexier when my hair is all down. I wanted my wedding hair to still feel like me so that's why I picked the style I did. Also, we had a super windy day and it did start to rain. My hair held up pretty well considering but the curl did fall, honestly, I didn't really notice.

    Half up half down for me. I have long hair which I love, so I'm definitely going to show it off!

    Arrrg. I can't decide. I have nice, long, hair that curls so pretty, but, it just does not hold styles well. I want it half up, but, I just can't decide. I will pin-trist it, and figure it out closer to the wedding. Still trying to figure out what highlights to get put in now.

    Arrg. Thanks for more decisions I didn't know I needed. LOL
