Hair-spiration

Even though I have a love/hate relationship with my hair right now, the beauty of it is that I'll pretty much be able to do whatever I want for the wedding day. And so every time I think about locking myself in the bathroom with a pair of scissors I browse purdy hair-dos instead.

I do this more often than you'd think, so I hope you're ready...

I love the look of elegant buns:

Then there's, well I don't know what to call it really. A messy bun? A loose bun? All I know is that it's purdy and I wish I could make my hair look like this everyday:

But then I think about the sheer willpower it's taken to not cut my hair. Shouldn't I show it off?

How about a side-do with pretty curls that flow over my shoulder? Although that would probably last about five minutes before it pissed me off and I pushed it back. Okay, fine, maybe I could tolerate it for the photos.

There's the classic half-up/half-down look:

Or maybe I'll just let it all hang out with some loose curls.

Sidenote: Her hair color is freakin' gorgeous!

So long-haired brides... Let's hear it! Up-do? Side-do? Half-up/half-down-do? Down-do? Monkey-see, Monkey-do?
