Choosing a HAIRSTYLE!!

[shellk]

sharon,

i think if it worries you soo much you need to go to your normal hairdresser once you have chosen a style and get photos taken so that you can take them with you to show the resort haridresser.please try not to worry too much it will be fine.

i like the idea of a loose up-do with flowers..

Ugh. Let me know what you decide. I also have shoulder length hair and it's so frustrating to have styled-it's that horrible in-between stage where I want to chop it all off but I'm so far into growing it I might as well keep going until it's long.....then I can cut it all off.

 

I like it up but I don't think it's as flattering to my face as when it's down. I think I'll end up just having it loosely curled or something with flowers. I'm planning to work with my stylist 6 weeks before or something to find a look I like.

 

The message board for my resort has had several positive reviews of the salon on location so I have my fingers crossed what ever I decide they can duplicate.

Good website! projectwedding.com is a good one too.

I am also having hair anxiety. My hair is not nearly as long as I want it to be for the wedding but I'm imagining something simple and up so hopefully it'll work out alright.

I'm not going to do a trial before because I don't really see the sense in paying someone to do my hair that won't be doing at the wedding. Although it could give some good ideas, I'd rather just practice myself. Doing one at the resort with the actual person doing your hair could be worth it if you want to put your mind at ease.

I'm sure you'll look gorgeous! Good luck

My girlfriend got married in June and she used the Jessica Simpson hairpiece. She used it for her engagement photos and wedding. It was pre-curled and she just clipped in her hair and then the hair dresser curled the rest of her hair to match. It stayed in all night - and she wore it all down! It think the pre-curled extensions work well, and I'm using it for mine. I haven't dyed my hair for almost two years - trying to grow it out, and I think I'm going to dye it to match the extensions I buy.

 

I also looked at projectwedding.com and saved a bunch of photos from there! they all look good! I can't decide either!

Vikki, i will let you know! I am in that EXACT in between phase, and NOTHING looks good, lol! So maybe i'll try the pieces, I am just not that hair savvy, so a diy isn't in my future!

 

Also, thanks for that projectwedding.com suggestion! There are a lot of great ideas, they just keep flowing now! Ahh, haha, too many choices!

 

Well, good luck in hairplanning to all!

My wedding isn't until Feb but I go to get my hair done Tuesday and will start to discuss this with my hairdresser then!

My wedding is less than 4 months away, and I am in the same boat - what hairstyle to choose My main concern is how much wind will there be on the beach? My original plan was it have half up half down, but I don't want it to look like a big disaster after being out in the wind for a bit! Can any previous brides help out here - my ceremony is at the beach gazebo at 4PM, will wind be a major factor? Did it affect your hair? My hair is such a problem on a regular day, I don't want bad pictures as a permanent reminder about my hair issues!

My ceremony was at 4pm in Montego Bay and yes wind was definately a factor! I chose to go with my hair loosely pinned back and TONS of hairspray. and few curls ended up flying away but it just looked nice and beachy. (at least I think so!)

Thanks so much for your input, I think your hair looked amazing! I will probably do the same and put it up loosely, and if it looks a bit messy then so be it.
