OMs - please could you flash me your hair-up pictures

Ohwhatatuesday, 15 February, 2014 at 11:41 Posted on Planning 0 15

Does anyone have any straight-on pictures of the front of their wedding hair and a pic of the back too they wouldn't mind flashing? (it doesn't matter if the face is blacked out)

I'm really struggling to get an idea of my hairstyle, I've had a trial but I didn't like how it looked from the front but I'm really struggling to get an idea of how the front 'should' look as lots of pinterest pictures only show a back of the head shot or side shot and even if there are fronts, you can't get an idea of what the back looks like for that particular style and vice versa.

I know I'm looking for an up style and something fairly relaxed, but could do with more of an idea of how it's going to look from the front

Thanks in advance

    It really does depend on your hair, the texture of it, the shape of your face - features you want to exentuate or draw attention from .. Your hairdresser should have spent time working through different ideas with you. Does your hairdresser come from a salon? I'd speak to someone at the salon (or your HD if you're comfortable to) and just explain that you're still feeling anxious and unsure about your wedding hair. Really, the point of a trial is to get you to the point where you say "I love it, that's what I want on the day" .. I'd be asking for another trial free of charge if I were you.

    Good luck x

    I don't seem to have many of the back! Hope these help, please don't quote though.

    My hair was pretty long (down past my boobs!)and is quite fine, took a lot of pins and hairspray!!

    Thank you very much!

    Swbvr - I know it will depend on hair type but I think my expectation of what the front will look like might not be quite right as I'm struggling to find front and back images that match up. I have spoken to her about it but I feel like maybe I'm not explaining myself very well as I'm not sure what I'm looking for? Or I'm expecting the front to look like something that can't happen.

    Studying and planning I've emailed you - thank you

    Kharv, Mrs C - you both look stunning! Both of these are lovely - I know this is a bit of a stupid question but could you see any of the back of the hair from the front? When I had mine you could see some of it coming out from my neck and I was worried it looked a bit weird .

    Kharv - that is exactly what I want the front to look like in my head! Thank you

    Thank you for all the pics - they're making me think it might look a bit different once I've got my headpiece, because they're all set off by the headpieces too.
