I'm hoping to soon schedule a trial with Jennifer from Fairytale Makeovers (I'm waiting for her to get back to me) but before I see her I was hoping to have some ideas to tell her about.
I have really long, really straight, really heavy boring hair. I want an updo but I am concerned about the length of my hair and that it is so heavy. I get headaches if I wear it up all day now.
Here is my hair down. (Next I'll post how it looks when I put it up when I am hot or tired of it falling in my face).
Do you ladies have any suggestions? I want it all up, but I'm afraid it's too long. Anyone else with really long hair have an updo?
You have beautiful hair. Unfortunately, I don't really have any suggestions...I'm going through a somewhat similar problem, my hair is long (but not as long as yours)...I'm just going to make an appointment with my hairdresser and see what he recommends.
If I can think of anything, I'll let you know.

Re: Up do for long hair...
Thanks Kathy, if I find an updo, I'll let you know too. I'm thinking about cutting my hair. It grows pretty quickly, so I'm not nervous about cutting it, I just don't know what to do.

Jenny2Penny, I think Jen is gone until Sunday. She emailed me Thursday morning saying she wouldn't be able to respond again until Sunday afternoon. I hope she gets back to me then...

Re: Up do for long hair...
I talked to Jen before she left yesterday. She's not coming back till Sunday. I also have hte same problem as you guys...I have long hair and I don't really want to cut it. Jen told me to bring pix of hairstyles that I like and bring my headpiece during my trial and she'd work with my hair and my features. I don't know yet when my trial will be but after talking to Jen and reading all the compliments all the ladies here in LIW have about her, I booked her over the phone! She is very busy (we played phone tag for a week before we got to talk) and I was afraid she'd get booked for my wedding...but I'm confident she'll do a great job!

Re: Up do for long hair...
Yeah, I was just looking at a thread with a lot of hairstyles from online models I guess, and I was telling FH that I hoped I didn't have a huge egghead. He just shrugged and said he doesn't know about these things... tee hee hee. I think I have a small head to begin with, and if I pile all that hair on top, I think I'll look silly.

I don't think you should worry about the length of your hair. A good hairdresser - one that does updos often will know what to do. I also have long hair down to the middle of my back and when I did a hair trial I wanted something with height on top and we had to try on a wiglet cause I needed some more hair!

Re: Up do for long hair...
Jennbaby - thank you for the compliment!
R&T - can you FM me with the name of the person doing your hair? I'm in central Suffolk on the south shore, but if someone is willing to come here the morning of, I can travel for a trial.
Good night ladies, I'm off to bed. Have school at 8AM. UGH!
