My brothers wedding is coming up in 2 wks and I finally have the dress, strapless, black full length. I am going to wear silver heels, silver bag and either diamond stud earrings or some drop ones.

I have black just below the shoulder frizzy hair which really misbeahaves in the humid weather of Qld.

Mum said i should wear my hair out and straighten it. I want to, but i feel thats too plain for a wedding. What styles do you suggest? For my formal I think i had a french twist.

straighten it and then put it up in an elegant twist. i reckon strapless dresses look better when your hair is up out of the way.

I agree. Updo ftw.

yeh i think an upstyle would look nice with a strapless dress too, but if you want to wear your hair out, maybe a ribbon in your hair would make it less plain.

Yeah I was thinking if I do just leave it down, to put a nice silver headband on, to a look nice and add some colour and b to control my hair which, if it is humid, will go bizurk.

So i think for the sake of not having a bad hair day, I will get it put up. And thankfully this week is the end of the pay week so I will be able to go to the hairdresser to get it done...And mum wants me to get my make up done, ewk i hate wearing make up, makes me feel all like tight and clammy.

why dont you put some heated rollers through it or maybe some ghd curls? theyre really easy to do... i learnt off youtube videos lol

Put a relaxing product in, blow dry ur hair downwards to reduce frizz. Then i reckon u should have a half up-half down, a twisted bun sorta thing with ghd curls. If u dont have a ghd, u can use an ordinary thin straightener. If u dont know how to do ghd curls, youtube it. I also reckon a cute headband with silver diamontes will look neat

also, if you do ghd curls, the hairspray should reduce the frizz. you could buy 2 little diamonte butterfly clips to pin up a little of ur hair on each side of ur head. i did this for my formal and it looked gorgeous (with dark hair)

I went to Stefans yesterday to get a quote to see how much getting ahairstyle done and they said:
blowdry: $50
ironing (straighten the hair) $12
putting some curls in $75

I was like wow fuck that! But i found a hairstyle that is simple enough for my housemate to do, just put the hair in a pony tail, spray it, then section bits and like twist it around and pin it. looks really nice.
