Re: HAIR

My dress is also strapless and I was going to wear my hair down and curly. Only because I wear my hair in a ponytail just about everyday. I think its up to you. Try on your dress with an updo and a down do and chooses which you like best. I dont think there are any rules to that......but I mainly see brides wearing updos.

Re: HAIR

I too am wearing a straplesss dress with a tiera and veil and I am wearing an updo. Usually when women wear halter or tube dresses they wear there hair up to bring out the whole dress, not allowing your hair to cover it.

Re: HAIR

I am wearing a strapless dress, veil, and tiara, and I want an updo.

Can someone please refer me to a site with a variety of pictures of updos for black women. I can't find any. I also can't find any cute hair styles for my flower girl.

Re: HAIR

Re: HAIR

My mom suggested that I get an old fashioned press & curl. I don't want to have my hair "sweat out" and I be stuck with a jacked up unmanageable mess. I just don't know what I am going to do. Currently my signature hairdo is this -- I am the queen of oil moisturizer and a pony tail.

Re: HAIR

My dress is strapless w/ sweetheart neckline. Ever since I watched Devils Advocate when I was younger and Al Pacino's character told Charliz Theron's character that "A woman's shoulders are the front lines of her mystique, and her neck, if she's alive, has all the mystery of a border town. A no-man's land in that battle between the mind and the body. "

After that she cut her hair haha. I will be rocking an updo to show off the front lines of my mystique.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride; so I love you because I know no other way. ~ Pablo Neruda

I hear you're suppose to wear your hair up to 'show off your mystique' as MsLee put it. I personally am going for the down & curly look, like Allie. I wear my hair down but it's comes out straight no matter how long I leave my hair wrapped. I don't think I'll feel like me if I put it up.

Re: HAIR

What type of prducts do you use, Cinamin1? When you wrap your hair do you use wraps to hold it up?

Re: HAIR

I use IC oil & wrap my hair with a silk scarf. I don't put much of anything else in my hair.

Re: HAIR

I love this forum! Everyone seems to be asking the same questions I'm asking! I am a natural sista as well...wearing a strapless dress with a veil and tiarra. I was thinking of wearing my hair up. Flat twists up into a curly bun, with a few curls coming down. Sounds complicated but at least my hair won't frizz up. What do ya'll think???


Marrying the love of my life on October 15, 2006. I'm more than excited!

I dont think you have to worry about your hair frizzing up in October, not unless it rains. I am wearing a strapless dress and decided to wear my hair down in curls.

Re: HAIR

Hi ladies, I'm new to the site and I just love it. I was feeling just a little down planning my wedding but now that I found this site things are starting to pick back up. I see I'm not the only one with the questions that I have. I know a great website that will allow you to upload your picture and you can see how you look with thousands of different hairstyles and color. www.thehairstyler.com. Let me know if it works for anybody. I'm not worried about my hair just yet. I'm still trying to pick out the other color for my May Garden wedding. So far I have burnt orange and white. Let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks
