My brother is having his 18 month delayed wedding tomorrow. I have an appointment to get an updo (or half-up) tomorrow (Friday) afternoon and have no clue what to ask for. Help? My hair is probably considered long. It’s boob length and I have some shorter collarbone bang pieces. This is my dress, if that helps you picture my life.

I think half up. Definitely want to be able to see that pretty detailing.

With that embroidery, I’d be inclined to lean towards a simpler chignon style like this:: Or this: For half down, I like this:

I like the first two jorkzy posted. I prefer full up do’s.

I’m no help on hair. I always do a full up do so I don’t have my hair in my way and I always ask for some sort of messy bun style.
But anyways, just wanted to say pretty dress and have fun!!

I think an updo would look good with that dress. I wouldn’t want to cover up the details in the dress.

I love the boho hints of the dress. I love the idea of an updo. I would probably lean a little more messy than what posted…something like this.

I love jorkzy, #1 and used that for my wedding so I say that one I love the details on the dress so I agree up is the way to go with your length.

I feel like a side swept half updo would look great, with the hair coming down on the opposite side of the flowers. Or parted in the center like the last picture. Have fun at the wedding! My sister is taking this exact picture to her hair appointment today, so I can't match her...or maybe I can!

It's from Shein and it's nearly see-thru, so I had to buy an old lady slip to wear under it. But it was cheap!

I love all these ideas. I'm poking round on pinterest to see what's suggested from some of these. I think I'm going to ask about the stylist's braiding ability, because I like the idea of combining the braid with a messy chignon.

I have a winter wedding to go to in Dec and want a banging sparkly dress. Or velvet. Something flashy and fun. But warm ish. Maybe I need a thread.
