Hair up or down? Dress pictures included!

Catherine, on May 18, 2021 at 4:09 PM Posted in Hair and Makeup 2 64
Just picked up my dress and I’m IN LOVE. Alterations don’t begin until August but it already fits almost perfectly which is so exciting. Yay for minimal alterations! Now to decide: hair up or down?? I have very long (waist-length) hair and I’m torn between:


A) half-up, half-down with a braided crown and big romantic curls
B) messy romantic low updo with braids and a few loose face-framing pieces

    Love the dress! I think messy low bun would be great!

    Gorgeous! I would say wear it up, show off the back of the dress, but you can't go wrong with either!

    LOVE your dress and you look gorgeous in it! I think the updo would compliment the dress very well!

    I love the hair inspired pics and the dress. Omg! How romantic. The updo reminds me of how my hair was styled for our minimony although I am loving the half up/down with the braid!

    This has my vote! Long curls with a braided crown would look amazing.


    Also, congrats on finding such a beautiful dress! 😍

    I personally like my hair down better, as it’s more comfortable. I think either would look perfect, so go with whatever you prefer and is more comfortable for the night. Gorgeous dress by the way! Smiley smile

    These are gorgeous! I definitely don’t have enough hair to make that happen without extensions lol, my hair is super long but on the thinner side! Such pretty ideas though!!

    Thank you so much!! I’m unfortunately not going to be able to do a trial, it’s a destination wedding and it just wasn’t in the budget to take a trip there just to do the trial, so I can’t have an updo done and see how I feel with it in advance. May be a last second decision on the day of honestly! Lol.

    Thank you so much! It’s hard to stomach covering even an inch of this dress with hair so that’s where I’m currently leaning, but I’m sure I’ll change my mind 100 times between now and then!
