We chose one model to show you three different hair styles. We did this to show you that you should decide on the image you want to portray well ahead of time. Do you want to look like youíre on the edge? Very stylish? Or maybe just fun and comfortable with easy-moving hair? Or how about like Cinderella? What is your image? Once you decide, select your gown and jewelry, and show your stylist your dress and accessories and any photos of hair styles you like. Do a practice run, so on that special day, you will look absolutely terrific!

On this up do, we did a crisscross part and then put it in a high pony tail, wrapped hair around the band, and then wrapped a beaded bracelet around that. Then we curled the hair with a large barrel curling iron.

This hair style requires a light layer cut on the bottom so hair will flip both ways. We used large hot rollers on the whole head then French braided a section the size of a headband from ear to ear.

Here we did a low ponytail, wrapped hair around the band, then sectioned off the hair and made curves all over - securing the ends with hair pins and accessorizing with butterfly clips.
