Hairstyles that go with a strapless ballgown

Hi! I've just bought my DREAM wedding dress! It's a strapless ballgown. I'm wondering what hairstyle would suit this dress - it's classic I would say. My hair is dead straight! I'll be wearing a veil, too. Would love some ideas :)

Hey! Omg, Congratulations! I think finding the right dress is the hardest part. I would say for a strappless number to have your hair out. but hear me out, soooo many people think you need to have your hair curled to look a like a bride, but thats sooo not true. I nice blowdry can be just as compliemtentry as hollywood waves if not more, because it's natually you. If having your hair out isnt an option for you, theres always the classic low buns. Theres a whole array of different ways to style buns. Actually speaking of an upstyle, Midi buns are making a comeback which is super nice to see. For more advise or even a trial touch base. Lets turn those inspo photos into a reality. x

A long shear veil looks gorgeous paired with a sleek low bun, a voluminous low bun, or chignon for a more romantic aesthetic. 

A loose up-do off the neck looks beautiful on medium to long curly/ wavy hair. (This can be added curls on straight hair) 

Brides with long hair should consider a voluminous ponytail, the bigger, the better! Or a soft braided chignon is wonderful for texture, fab if you want a little softness with extra hight added at the top too. 

A loose half up / half down that feels casual but elegant. "If your strapless is lacy and boho, go for a relaxed and romantic half-updo, beach waves, and lots of texture. 

A smooth blow out, side swept blowout or tight curl also look amazing. 

What’s best to do if your still struggling to choose the perfect style, reach out for a hair trial and we can go over what your best options are to suit the style of your dress and wedding theme.
