My hair trial! (With pics- little long!)

I had my first (and ended up being my only) hair trial with Maria from Concours D'elegance and loved her!

I let her play and she came up with a great half up style. The 'all up do' seemed to be the winner of the day but I'm not used to wearing my hair all up so I'm still not sure. Let's see what others who don't know me think! My friends and family are split (some keep changing their minds!)

I was using sample pieces b/c I don't have mine yet but I'm posting a pic I took after I ordered my pins-I thought I wanted my hair that way too:



Here's Maria's half up:

Ignore my silly pose!




Maria said she'd use medium rollers for more defined curls-she used large ones here



All up-




I'd do different crystals but you get the idea:


Here my side pins are in addition to the clusterd in the back.


there are more in my album (with my BM pics-if I do the all up style they will have to choose another updo style!) but I didn't want to post all of them! Any thoughts are appreciated! TIA!
