Hair Up: Do or Don’t?

September 6th, 2010 @ 11:15 am by Mrs. Elephant

I’ve been to a couple of dances/functions in high school and college where I felt the occasion was special enough to warrant an updo for my hair.

That’s me, BM Cali, and MOH Navy in our living room before ring dance our senior year at Texas A&M.


When thinking about how I want to do my hair for the big day, I first thought of doing another updo, but then decided that I wanted to try something a little bit different, with maybe a little less hairspray.

I have seen a lot of pictures online and in magazines of the hair flower, and I thought that one would look so great with my dark hair!

The style of hair that I think best showcases the hair flower is the low side-ponytail/bun.

I don’t think my hair will be long enough for this look by the time of the wedding, so I’ll probably be getting extensions just to add enough length for the perfect bun.

Will you be wearing your hair up or down, or a combination of both?

I’m going with up so there’s no chance of me fussing with it! That hairstyle is gorgeous and that flower would definitely look gorgeous with your hair.

I’m going with a loose updo I think. I too love the hair flower and have been stalking the internet for the perfect one for me and my dress.

Ohhhhh! Extensions! That’ll be fun! I am going down, I don’t like the way my face looks with my hair up!

I’m doing a combo of both! I’m wearing my hair pinned half up with a veil for the ceremony, and then I’m switching to an updo with a gorgeous hair flower for the reception!

It will be a serious debate for me for the next 10 months. Glad you have come to a decision you love though!

@kirabee: After reading her recaps and seeing her hair, I’m definitely looking into it!

Up for me. I can stand my hair on my neck for about 5.2 seconds.

Love the inspiration pics! Mine is going to be down because that is how I normally wear it and I want to look like myself.

Love it! It’s down for me…Mr. Lion’s one request! But I do love that sophisticated look.

I love how classic and simple that looks. With a hair flower it will be perfect!

@nmeyer01: That’s what I thought about it! Of course the model is gorgeous so that helps. Can’t wait to go for a hair trial.
