Hair decision!

I actually like your trial, I think that if you added some of the hair jewelry/flowers then it would look even better! But I do think that straightening it would help you get the picture look.

I think your trial the braid is tighter than the inspo pics. In the pics, the braid itself is looser. I think straightening would help get that look as well. But I don't think your trial pic looks bad at all!

Do you have layers in your hair? My friend had her hair professionally done like that for a wedding and it looked AMAZING...for about an hour. Then her layers started popping out of the braid and it looked pretty rough by the time the ceremony actually happened (and that was even after we repinned a lot of pieces). I think it looks fine but would be concerned about how it would wear throughout the night.

I think it looks gorgeous! I personally, like you get very hot and would prefer my hair up and out of the way, so that would be my main concern - the actual look of it is so pretty, and not everyone would be able to carry off that look!

I think your trial picture is actually beautiful. Keep in mind the stylist doesn’t do 100% perfect for the trial because they want you to feel extra beautiful and special when they reveal your wedding day look.

Both is just WOW! i think you sit down and really look at the photos and decide but if i have to chose i like the 2 one almost look like butterfly's in the hair

i my self is gonna have 2 wails, roses and a tiara in mine and not to styled but i don't have this long hair if i had i propyl do something that look like nr 2 photo just with even more flowers or butterfly's

and i think you can see how to do hairstyles like brads on YouTube

Looks amazing to me! Very pretty style. What I like is the texture and you can see the pretty highlights in your hair. Romantic style! I’m getting married October 9 so doing a half up thing. Had the trial today.

UPDATE, I did another trial because I'm crazy indecisive lol. What do we think, full updo or "boho braid"

Here's the second trial: (the first can be seen in the OG post)

I think I like your second style better and accomplishes your goal of having your hair off your neck/back. As someone with thick, long hair I get how steamy it can get under that hair curtain! I think the braid still shows off your lovely highlights and I love the romantic tendrils in front.

You sound like me hahaha! I think I’m leaning towards the updo. It looks beautiful

I was thinking of your choices for myself as well. My hair trial rendered something entirely different from my pictures that I provided. I think the challenge for any stylist is to make sure the style is secure and will last all day. With this in mind I like both styles she gave you but hands down the second style is more elevated and elegant. I would say it depends on your dress and your venue and the vibe your trying to achieve.
