hair styles - down and straight?

JackieS, 12 January, 2010 at 18:53 Posted on Planning 0 19

Anyone had their hair just down and straight (mid-long hair types)

I'm getting married on a budget that doesn't stretch to paying someone to come and do it for me, and I seem to be horrific at trying to curl my own hair with GHDs despite lots and lots of practice. and I don't know of anyone that can do it for me. I was thinking I may just do it myself and have it down and straight, but this is something I usually always do when I'm going out.......

So have you had yours down and straight? What sort of things have you done to it to make it look a little less...."boring"?

    It wouldn't be the first time I have seen a bride with straight hair and it looks lovely as well, what is your dress like and that way we can help you decide what to put in it ?

    I've also got mid length hair - not much u can do with it! So im having down and straight but with alot of body and a tiara so its jazzed up that way.

    Like the idea of having a really lovely clip and pulling some away to the side.

    U could also have a fancier in your hair something like this :
