- Planning on having a casual hairstyle does not mean that you do not need to prepare for it. If your daughter is having a less formal, laid-back wedding, you can wear your hair how you wish, but remember to use styling products to achieve the sleekest and smoothest hair possible, if it will be down. If you are curling your hair, make sure that you use products that will hold your curls.
- This is a classic style for the mother of the bride, typically best achieved with medium to long hair. It is elegant and can be achieved by pinning hair up with bobby pins. Twist the hair up, roll it into a bun or create curls and then arrange them on top of your head.
- For mothers who do not like the way their face looks with an updo, they should consider a half-up hairstyle, which is still considered very formal. Tease hair from the crown and pile it loosely on top of your head. Curl the remaining hair and leave it down.
- This is very similar to an updo, except all the hair is pulled back to the base of the neck instead of piled on top. It can be in the form of a bun or twisted or curled. Pull the hair back directly in the center of the neck, or place it asymmetrically for a different style. Smooth back or, for extra volume, tease the hair at the crown of the head.
