Chocolate Brides: Hair Question

 

I hope that shows up.

I like this style, I think it'll be sweat and heat friendly for the big day and last for pix. Plus it's relaxed and easy so I can do it myself and not stress out about someone possibly jacking me up.

gregsbride - this one kinda shows the side a lil bit more:

 

Thanks Danyelle!!! Btw, I love that style... It's so carefree!!

Thank you for taking the time to clarify. I wasn't trying to say you were making a generalization at ALL. I really was saying what I did in the hopes that you might feel more comfortable if you just so happened to find an extension style that you liked someday. I felt bad that YOU would feel bad wearing your hair a certain way. I've seen a lot of black women be made to feel self conscious (from others) and I don't like the idea of anyone feeling bad doing whatever they feel like doing. Sounds like its a personal choice for you, and that's perfectly understandable. I'm a "froo froo" girl, and I like all the trappings (though not everyday just sittin around the house), so it's just yin and yang. I dislike earrings for some reason and don't wear them if I can help it, but thats just a wierd thing about me. lol Everything else is totally comfy for me.

I really am growing fond of that first style I posted...I really had my mind set on wearing my hair down for the ceremony, but ever since I saw that pic, I'm itching to see if I can pull it off. I think it's elegant without being severe or over done.....hmm...still marinating. I asked one of my BM's tonight and she said "perfect" so I'm trying to think on it without letting that influence my decision. hahaha! Shoulda never asked!

GregsBride (I really do need to start memorizing more names here), that style is soooooo glamorous. It's like...old Hollywood, very sophisticated. I really like it and it's almost the best of both worlds...not really an updo, but not completely down (and suffocating) either.

Oh! I also like the style Nia Long is wearing. Very luxurious...I've always envied her hair in every style I've ever seen her wear. She has amazing taste (sigh).

Now you leave Forest alone! hahahaha..thats my boy!

Im loving the camaraderie ladies!!!! But more pics please!!!

SO glad for this thread...You ladies rock!

I absolutely love this style... I still have no idea what I'm doing with my hair and the wedding is next month :0)

I'm hoping to go see a hair stylist next week...

Hi ladies. I love the hairs pics. Good looking out!!

I love the pic of Nia Long. That is so me. I love it, no fuss but still pretty and all it needs is a flower.

I also love the soft updo that BillysBride posted. Very soft and romantic looking.

I have no idea how to post pic or I would. I found a cute hairstyle that actress Gabriella Union wore in Neyo's video for Independent Woman.

Normally, my hair does good in the summer. I have fine hair, not thick....when relaxed. The thing is since I've been natural I haven't really wore MY hair. Maybe for a month a couple months back but for the most part I've been wearing micros. I really didn't want to wear micros for the wedding. I would love it if I could have a style where none of my hair is being shown. That's why I was leaning towards a lace front. The invisible braids seem to be a perfect solution really but from what it sounds like my hair is too long for the invisible braids 'look' to work.

Oh a side note: Danyelle...aren't you the sweetest thing! Thank you for commenting on our website.

 

The pictures that I've seen are really cute! I don't want a super sleek look either. I would love something that's in between sleek and messy. If that makes sense. LOL I need to get an account somewhere so I can have a place to keep the hairstyles I love.
