Should you Have Your Hair Up or Down on Your Wedding Day?

Do you wear your hair up or down on your wedding day?  There are many factors to consider with this dilemma! One factor will be your wedding dress. Are you going to feel very bare and exposed if you have an off the shoulder design and have all of your hair swept away, or will you in fact elongate your neck and draw attention to the beautiful detail on the neckline or back area?

You may also want to consider how you actually feel with your hair up. It is a great idea for summer weddings as it keeps you cool and you don’t have to worry about possible frizz creeping along.

Maybe your idea of glamour is having your hair flowing down around your skin and feeling it all around. For many ladies it will be your security blanket and that added piece of confidence to help you down the aisle. If this is the case then don't suddenly change your look just for the big day. You can feel bridal with a simple accessory to add something special.

If you are still undecided but are swaying towards wearing your hair up as you have seen so many gorgeous styles and it’s just a little out of the norm, then start randomly wearing your hair up and see what sort of reaction your hubby-to-be gives. This of course will depend on how attentive he is!! If that's not an option because he wouldn't notice if you chopped it all off and dyed it red, then move on to the girlfriends option. You will definitely find a comment or 5 there! Then soak up all the sneaky research and it will all become clear.

Lastly, keep an open mind during your trial; you never know what may come to light.
