Love your hair band it's fab. Always a good thing when you get to find out something fits!

[MrsBoucher2B2012]

I cant decide on my hair style. I very rarely have my up so having it up on the day might be odd but up would go better with the dress. Down and curly is more me but my hair is annoying it doesnt hold curls for longer than a few hours HUGE plus point one of my neighbours who is coming to the wedding is my hairdresser.

If i do go for curl and they come loose i can always re do them with my tongs where as i stand no chance of being able to re do the side knot that has been discussed.

Opinions please?

If you are more comfortable and feel more 'you' with it down then go for that. Having said that having it up might be good if it suits your dress, and it would feel more special if it is different to normal!

Can you try the dress and everything with both styles to see which you prefer?

I think an up do would look really nice with your dress, and if your hair doesn't hold curls then it might be a good option. Might be worth a trial for both to see what you like best! If you did want to have your hair down, then maybe go for a 'messy' style. Have you ever tried heater rollers with your hair?

[MrsBoucher2B2012]

I have tried pretty much everything it will only curl when it wants to. I have a trial in May so will see what both styles look like and get some pictures. Wont be able to get them with the dress though.

My hair never stays in a style, it has a mind of its own! But when the hairdresser did it for the wedding and trail she somehow made it do alsorts of things! I think it had that much stuff on it , it couldn't move! Though it didn't feel in unnatural. In the end I went for up due to fear of it falling out but she made it look ace and even though I wear it up all the time it looked so different, not like my scrape back in a pony tail rush job.

Anyway, I am sure your hairdresser will help you make up your mind and can make your hair do as its told!!! Have you thought of half up half down, that way if the curls do drop you will still have part of the hair still styled, with looser curls?

On my trail first she curled it, the put half up, then all up so I could see. I took pics of what I wanted. I liked half up but I didn't think my hair was long enough for it but yours would be. Can't wait for pics.

Pic 6/7 I think!!!


Hope this works but if not google half up half down wedding pics. There are some gorgeous ones but i love the dark brown with a very small clip at the side!

Thanks ladies.
Becky they are all hand stamped and coloured. All 60 of them.

Ran out of stamp so got more today and posted the last of them this afternoon before finding out i may have chicken pox. I am covered in a rash so have to wait and see if it gets worse or better in the next 24hrs, worse equals pox better equals a virus so fingers crossed for me ladies i have already chicken pox twice i dont need it a third time.

[poppleminster]

Gorgeous invites but rubbish about the chicken pox - hope you are feeling better very soon xxxxx
