I can do a passable job on my own, but it is relaxing to sit in a chair and let someone else do it. Plus they always do better than I would! I would go for it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding---should-i-get-my-hair-done#post-779133 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 05:59:10 +0000 Deborah 779133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anne you are going to look gorgeous!

It is at 9am, so I hope the effect will last into the afternoon and evening! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding---should-i-get-my-hair-done#post-778739 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 19:15:32 +0000 RoseandJoan 778739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you are anything like me you will spend the morning chasing after your family, ensuring the girls hair is done, their clothes remain clean and neglect yourself. If you are likely to be the same I would book an appointment as time for you to reflect and enjoy the process of getting ready for your brothers day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding---should-i-get-my-hair-done#post-778541 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 15:11:26 +0000 Sara L. 778541@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would recommend getting your hair styled. I always enjoy getting my hair done for soecial events. It always feels really special and looks great in pics. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding---should-i-get-my-hair-done#post-778458 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 13:05:21 +0000 anne 778458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet - I don't think I have time for a blow dry tomorrow as they are squeezing in the cut at 2:30 and I pick my girls up at 3:10 the other side of our town (good idea though)</p> <p>I'd really like to go to a salon close to where I am staying - am thinking of asking my FB friends for recs.</p> <p>Deborah, your hair is always impeccable - my standards aren't nearly as high!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding---should-i-get-my-hair-done#post-778454 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 12:56:22 +0000 Janet 778454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe you could ask your stylist who is cutting your hair tomorrow for suggestions on styling, or where to go in the city for a styling. Better yet, maybe they could style your hair after they cut it to how you want it to look for the wedding. Then they can either tell you how to do it yourself or take a picture so you can show a stylist on the big day. That way you won't have any surprises. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding---should-i-get-my-hair-done#post-778439 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 11:44:22 +0000 Atlantia 778439@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would say go and ask for a blowout. I had it done as a bridesmaid once, and it was great. Every picture was like a shampoo commercial, because we'd all had it done! I remember feeling super cool, because I asked for a zig zag part. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding---should-i-get-my-hair-done#post-778431 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 11:25:08 +0000 Deborah 778431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anne, I never have my hair blow dried by a stylist for a function or event because I have never found anyone who does a blow dry on my hair as well as I do:). My current hair dresser is quite good but... I would be concerned about going to a hairdresser you don't know and has not styled your hair before. Some might say its only a blow dry but it can still end up not looking as you want it to. I read that in the US "Blow Out" salons are really popular where they specialize in a blow dry (or blow out) but I havent seen any here yet.</p> <p>It would be lovely to have your hair professionally styled but it is risky if the stylist doesn't know you. Please note tho that I am neurotic about my hair so I am really particular. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding---should-i-get-my-hair-done#post-778337 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 03:03:04 +0000 Jenava 778337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's a styling or a blowout...Maybe ask the person who is cutting it what they recommend? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding---should-i-get-my-hair-done#post-778334 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 03:00:45 +0000 anne 778334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jeneva - I am not sure if it does!! I have so rarely had it styled and mostly it has been in bridesmaid styles. 11 years ago I had mine done for the last family wedding - I had straight long hair then, and the stylist blow dried it straight - which is was already, so I felt it was not really worth paying for.</p> <p>Suz - I am still growing it out - this will just be a trim. Will get back to your other question in a new thread...</p> <p>So what does one ask the stylist for? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding---should-i-get-my-hair-done#post-778319 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 02:35:59 +0000 Jenava 778319@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that's a good idea, esp. if your hair looks better when done professionally. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding---should-i-get-my-hair-done#post-778304 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 02:14:36 +0000 Suz 778304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If it will make you feel more confident and fab, go for it! </p> <p>If you're still growing your hair out and it is going to be "between" lengths/ styles, I would definitely do this. If you are getting it cut short and that is manageable for you, then you might not need. </p> <p>Have a wonderful time, Anne. And what happened with the shoes and topper in the end? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding---should-i-get-my-hair-done#post-778298 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 02:09:29 +0000 bj1111 778298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i would, esp since you've spent a lot of time getting the outfit right. the hair would be the finishing touch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding---should-i-get-my-hair-done#post-778295 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 02:07:55 +0000 anne 778295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So my brother's wedding is this coming saturday ( I have already asked extensively for feedback on my outfit!) I am getting my hair cut tomorrow - it has been 6 months. Just wondering though, if I should also go on the day of the wedding (to somewhere in the city, where the wedding will be) and have it blowdried or styled?</p> <p>What are your thoughts on that? </p>
