Over the course of the past few months, I slowly built up a folder of images that I had stumbled upon. Seriously, for those of you with "medium" length straight hair, it can be daunting. I was constantly bombarded with images of gorgeous brides with low, loose, curly buns...messy yet beautiful hairstyles that I drooled over. The thing is, I LOVE my straight hair...from day to day. However, this is the ONE time in my life that I was wishing my hair had some texture! Alas...
Although the pictures were hard to come by, I managed to gather a small collection of feasible and achievable hairstyle inspirations to bring with me to the salon for my hair trial...
Ok, first of all...I just adore Reese Witherspoon. What I really love about this hairstyle is the volume on the top...it isn't a ballerina bun that is flattened to her skull!
Felicity Huffman and William H. Macy are so cute! I really liked the placement of this hairstyle.
You may recognize this chignon photo from my original post. I like that you can tell the model doesn't have too much hair, because I sure do not! Upon further consideration though, I realized that I don't like the idea of having bangs falling down in front of my face. End of May in Florida = humid, and I know that bangs would turn into a greasy mess...
Ohhh my gosh I adore this hairstyle! I saved it, but was unsure if it would be possible with my hair...but I decided to bring it along regardless!
Some more bun-loving goodness...because I can...
Did you have a hard time finding some hair inspiration? Is anyone else in the straight, short hair boat? What look did you/are you going for?
LOVE the styles you picked out!! I actually had a few in mind myself. I ended up going a bit shorter and just straigthening my hair myself. It was easy and felt more like me on our wedding day. I can't wait to see what you pick!
ReplyDeleteI also have super-straight hair. It's nice every morning not to have to mess with it much, but it's hard to make it look special! I've been collecting all hair images that I like, then later sorting through them to figure out what would work for me. These are gorgeous! I'm sure you'll find something awesome!
ReplyDeleteI've been growing my hair out so it's pretty long, but it's PIN straight. As in, globs and globs of gel will barely hold a curl in the ends from a curing iron. I LOVE LOVE the Reese picts. I saved them too from another site.
