(Closed) Any bees do/doing their own hair?

No way–all I can do with my hair is iron it straight, and I want it to be half up and in big, loose curls for the wedding.  I’m actually nervous about getting my makeup done b/c I think I’m pretty good at doing my own makeup!

I did my own hair. I just had it in a simple bun at the back of my head, plus sideswept bangs. I bought a kit called “the perfect updo” or something like that, and it contained a hair-colored insert to make the bun bigger, plus all the pins, brushes, etc. I’d need. 

I did it myself because I just wasn’t comfortable with having it done professionally (because of the cost, and because I would have felt too fussed-over). I also kind of wanted to keep my getting-ready period really pure (if that makes sense), with just my mom and sisters and closest friends in the room. My sisters stuck all the pins in the back of my bun, and it was just kind of…a nice experience. That’s how I felt about it, anyway.

I thought it looked great! It was as “perfect” as it’s possible for my hair to look, I think.

I’m doing my own but will be keeping it pretty simple.

Probably curling it with my chi iron & putting it half up.
