Here is a very pretty updo hairstyle that also allows the hair to trail down the back in soft loose curls. The front and sides are pulled up and back and secured into place with bobby pins to hold the style. Some back combing on the top adds height and fullness in which to work with. The strands that are left hanging down are curled using a large barrel curling iron. Wind the peices around the outside of the barrel in a spiral motion. A curl enhancing product will help and then do not brush through but rather use the fingers to separate. There is no veil with the style and this is a nice idea for an outside afternoon wedding.This is a picture showing a young bride with her groom and her lovely bouquet of red roses.
