    Hello lovely ladies,

    I had my hair trial today, a friend has kindly offered to do the hair for all the bridal party for free. I will attach some pictures from today.
    Please give me your honest opinions. Also do you think I should have the side plait or do you think it would look nicer without?

    Oh it's lovely at the back, I like it with and without the plait! I think you could benefit from the front being cut a little shorter into a proper side fringe, but that's up to you of course. Your friend did a great job!

    You hair is fab, something similar to what I want. Haven't got round to sorting hair out yet.

    I do prefer it without side plait, but I suppose its what you prefer and feel comfortable with and also what tiara/hairpiece/if any you are wearing.

    Thanks ladies, I agree with you LegoBride that my fringe does need to be shorter. She is coming back to put low lights in soon so I will ask her to do it then.
    I'm still unsure about the side plait.
    @ Vickie I will be wearing a diamonte headband and a veil. Would of tried it with it on today but my mum is looking after all my wedding things.

    Just a question as I am a bit of a tomboy and don't know much about these things. Wouldn't the headband feel a little uncomfortable with the side plait? Just thinking as the plait is raised.
    Very good job though.

    Thats a thought Vickie, think I will make sure I have my headband here next time she comes round and maybe ask her to put a plait in to see how it feels. xx

    Aww i think your hair looks gorgeous, personally i dont think you need the plait in there as there is already detail in the back, plus your diamante band, i think it will look like there is too much going on in one style if u get me xxxxx

    Your friend has done a great job hun. I think without the plait hun but i also think without the curly tendrils at the back too. If you have the fringe a bit shorter but not too much and a tight bun it will look very classic. Another idea is have the side of your hair pinned in to the centre at the back with all of the back in curly tendrils. This will look soft, smart and casual. I love your hair colour.

    i prefer it without the plait, if you have a headband then it may not sit right with the plait but also the plait may be too much detail next to the diamontes, definately try them together next time :)

    It looks beautiful both ways but I think I prefer it without the plait, especially if you have and veil and tiara it might not be comfortable.

    Hair looks lovely but I agree with the others about doing it without the plait as the hairstyle looses some elegance with it there. also a hint more volume on the top (more towards the crown) would do wonders to perfect the shape :) x

    I like it with or without the plait hun but the only thing I can think of is as the plait is quite fashionable at the moment it may 'date' your wedding pictures quicker than if you went without it (if you know what I mean)???

    I love it! I think the plait makes it unique to you - but personally I wouldn't have it with a diamante headband. If you had a hair comb then that'd be fine imo, but a headband + the plait would be fighting for attention lol.

    Well done to your friend! Xx

    I like the non plaited version but if you put some sparkles in the plait it could be quite effective!

    It would look good with sparkles in, I agree. Starting to think that would be nicer than my headband now. Xx
