When It comes to choosing a wedding hairstyle, there are so many things to factor in. This can make it one of the most stressful parts! "Do I have enough hair?", "Do I have the right texture?", "Can my hairstylist do this?". This is one of the reasons why having a photo, or a few photos, of what type of hairstyles you like, can make this part of your wedding fun and relaxing. There are many below that are either from pinterest or blogs that we see all the time and are beautiful popular styles. The others are hairstyles of our own that have made clients extremely happy. I have listed the hair textures and lengths needed to achieve these looks Just because we see a hairstyle over and over doesn't mean that we make it look exactly the same as everyone else's. Everyone has a unique style and unique hair. That gives your stylist the opportunity to create your perfect updo. If you show a few different photos to your stylist, they can also combine your favorite things about them and leave out anything you don't like about them. Keep in mind that if you do not natuarlly have the hair for the do you like, you can always add extensions.
A smooth classy updo is perfect for dressing up with some flowers. The textured contrast of the flowers looks very elegant with the smoother texture of the hair.
