I have a lovely young friend who recently had the duties of 'Flower Girl' to attend to at a wedding! She had a beautiful dress, fancy shoes, pearly earrings and a pretty bouquet of flowers...the only thing needed to complete the ensemble was a sweet little up-do.
I have had a handful of experiences with doing hair for weddings in the past and asked her if I could do hers for this special occasion! She was excited, so we got to work...it's really not all that hard if you have a little guidance on the basics:
This 'Do' started with a low ponytail.
I took small sections of hair and curled each one (this can be done to the whole head of hair before securing the ponytail if you prefer).
Next, I just grabbed one curl at a time, found a happy place for it and secured with a bobby pin near the base of the ponytail (it serves as an anchor for the pins to hold tight).
Keep going...
A few more....
Add a little home made flower (see my earlier post on how to make one for yourself: Fancy Flower)....and this girl is ready to roll! So beautiful and so simple! Don't be afraid to give it a try for your next fancy soirée. Piece of cake...wedding cake, ha!
