- An updo creates an elegant appearance as pulls the hair from the nape of the neck. A classical updo is the French twist, which wraps the hair inside itself and is pinned on the side. Accent the twist with side-swept bangs or a poof in front. A low neck bun may be worn on the wedding day. This gathers hair at the nape of the neck and is teased to become fuller. Wear a bridal veil cage for the face as you accent this style with a feather flower on the side.
- Straight hair parted to the side and gelled behind one ear with a crystal barrette or hair comb gives a sleek look to shorter hair. Or, go with a mass of spiral curls as you twist hot rollers into your hair just before the wedding and finger-comb them before adding the veil. Cascade long, wavy hair down your back with a tiara crown or sweep long hair to one side with a comb. Another option is to curl the ends of the hair under.
- Go for a classic ponytail high on the head with an enclosed tiara surrounding it, or pull the hair to one side and gather it with a ribbon as it flows over your shoulder. Curl the ends of the hair in the ponytail. Or, choose a ponytail that pulls half your hair off your face but allows the back to drape down the back. Curl the hair the night before with pin curls to give body to the crown. Add the veil over the ponytail.
- Pull half your hair up and braid it. Twirl the braid to create a crown of hair on your head and add the veil to the braid. French braid from the forehead to the nape of the neck and folded gives a tailored appearance and can be accented with jeweled pins with the veil in front. A fishtail braid pulled to the side with ribbons weaved through it creates a soft and romantic look, especially with a veil.
