WWYD, worried to upset the friend who made my tiara...

froggy29400, 26 August, 2010 at 16:57 Posted on Planning 0 3

A friend of a friend made my comb tiara, she's a friend on FB, we see every now and then, but she's not coming to the wedding. I collected my comb last week (it's gorgeous!) but it doesn't really go with my hair so the hairdresser suggested putting fresh flowers instead, which will be lovely.

The friend in question has texted me to ask how the hair trial went and if the tiara was ok. I don't know what to reply! I don't want to upset the lady, she made me an amazing item but it just doesn't look great because of my big curly hair!

WWYD?

    I would be honest - if she's on facebook she's probably going to see some pics of your wedding at some point so no point lying to her. I'd just tell her that you love the comb but having seen it on the hairstyle you like it might not work as well as the fresh flowers would. If you feel that's not enough you could tell her that you're going to try out another couple of styles to see if you can work it in somehow. Could you maybe incorporate the comb somewhere else - like as an embellishment on your bouquet or something? That way you're still using it. Or is it something that's not too weddingy that you could wear on a special occassion afterwards with a different hairstyle?

    Is there a way to do your hair that you do like and that would suit the tiara too? If you really do love it it's a shame not to wear it.

    I'd be honest because the last thing you want is to look back at photographs and not like how you looked. Can it be adapted by the friend to suit your hairstyle better? Can you flash any pics from a hair trial so we can suggest how it could work better?

    Obviously I've seen it and my initial thoughts are that it would suit a side sweeping hairstyle with the comb pushed into the slide of your hair. x
