Classic bridal beauty looks include a classic bridal updo. Whether you sweep your luscious locks up into a simple French twist, elegant chignon or go for a more elaborate style, pulling your hair up and and away highlights your gown and brings all eyes on your gorgeous face. If you are not opting for a veil, bring in headbands, clips, fresh flowers or other accents to add a personal touch to your gorgeous wedding day hairstyle. The right look for your tresses will complement your dress and complete your look in the prettiest way.

And if you still can’t decide on up or down? Have your (wedding) cake and eat it, too. This amazing retro wave updo was actually convertible so that the bride is able to let her hair down later at the reception. Stunning yet practical.
