Hairstyles

With the wedding approaching in about 5 weeks, I need to figure out what to do with my hair. I haven't hired any stylist and don't have plans to do so. Because it's a casual wedding, I convinced myself that the expense wasn't worth it. I may be changing my mind.

My fine, straight blonde hair doesn't hold a bit of curl. I don't want a fancy up-do since it's a beach wedding and I lack talent in styling hair. I found two hairstyles that I liked and thought were easy to do (or find a friend to do).

Luckily, I was mentioning this to one of my bridesmaid and she mentioned she has a friend who is a stylist and said we'd all get together (over a bottle of wine or two) and her friend would play with my hair. Good news!




I'm on the fence regarding having a veil or not. A friend got married a couple of years ago on the beach and she had a long veil at the top of her head. With the wind, the veil took on a life of its own whipping around her head. If anything, I will have something short at the bottom of the head. My mom just gave me a great piece that she had on her veil when she got married so I'm going to try and incorporate that into the hairstyle.

I'll keep you posted.
