Wedding beach hair up or down

Sarah, on November 8, 2018 at 10:54 PM Posted in Hair and Makeup 0 12
I am getting married in Destin in June. I am desperately wanting to wear my hair down but everything I’ve read says to wear it up due to high winds. Any thoughts, tips or experiences on wearing it down during a beach wedding?

    That’s a really pretty style but I understand the wind 🌬 concern. I really don’t think that will be that much of an issue.

    Have you been to the beach you are getting married on? Maybe you can see what the winds are like ahead of time. I too am getting married on a beach. I always imagined my hair down because my hair is thin and on the shorter side making up dos a challenge. But I've been to the beach we are getting married on and it is soooo windy and my hair would be in my face in all the pics. Im debating half up half down as a possible solution but I'm working on growing out my hair. In the end it's what will make you happiest. If you do wear it down have someone on standby after to help you fix it if it gets tossed around too much.

    Ps I love the styles you posted! Wish my hair was longer

    Olive the hairstyles in the pic. I think it could work if you do it a bit tighter. It’s a messy braid /twin so the wind, I don’t think would make it worse.

    Yes I have been and it is windy. However, with it being pulled to the side I was hoping this would help with some of it. I could do something tighter and possibly goggle a serious hairspray for the beach haha! unfortuantely I won’t be able to trail run my hair at the beach itself prior to my wedding.

    Hello Sarah! Those are beautiful hair photos. I love Destin! My family goes all the time! I don't think your hair concern will be an issue. I mean June will be slightly windy but nothing that's going to destroy your hair! If and when you have your hair trial you can still test wind strengths by sitting in front of a fan and adjusting the speed. I know it sounds a little silly! But it may help!

    I'm doing a beach wedding in Curacao. It can be really windy at times, but I prefer my hair down. I'm going to do something similar to the style below and just risk the wind. I'm going with the style that makes me most comfortable and happy.

    I lived outside of Destin for a while! The beach is rarely windy, unless a storm is blowing in, so you should be fine!
    If you still want to wear it back just in case, I love the braid!

    I'd worry about the wind AND the humidity/damp air ruining the curls.
