You might have always planned for an updo at your wedding, but the updo can be achieved in thousands of different ways.
Are you adding your updo to a fascinator, birdcage veil, or full veil? Are you using an updo to show off your jewelry? Are you using an updo to show off your shoulders, the neckline of the dress, or your tattoos?
You could even use an updo to show off the back of the dress.
When you get an updo, you need to decide if your hair will be braided or styled before the stylist pulls it up. An updo might include a bun that includes a hairpin or small fascinator.
When the birdcage veil is attached to your updo, you should ask the stylist to pin the veil so that it pulls away from your updo. You can show off your hair and your veil at the same time.
Are you getting your hair straightened before the updo? You might ask your stylist to straighten your hair before the updo to make it easier to manage. However, you might want to start straightening your hair a couple of months before the wedding so it is easy to deal with on the day of the wedding.
Make sure you go in for a test run of your updo before the day of the wedding. Bring your veil or hairpin, make sure the veil fits in the updo, and ask your stylist if they need to trim your hair before wrapping the bun.
Wedding hairstyles could flow over your shoulders, over your chest, or down your back. You can get your hair curled before the wedding, or you might have the stylist put some waves in your hair.
If you want even more fascinating curls, you could ask the stylist to let a curl hang from your brow.
Try out a lot of different hairstyles at home before meeting with your stylist for the first time.
