Spill It: Bridal Hair

Image sources can be found on my Pinterest board

Planning a wedding makes you think about all sorts of little details you never thought you'd care about.  And actually still don't really care that much about, in my case.  One thing I knew I'd have to think about was my hair - would I try to grow it longer?  Stop cutting my bangs?  Change the color?  Ha, just kidding on that one, I'm never changing the color!

I casually said something to my hair stylist about having to decide whether to grow it longer, and she told me that she actually has a set formula for brides.  Starting at least a year before the wedding, she stops cutting layers in their hair, and instead only gives a tiny trim and does some face framing so that when the big day comes it's easier to put your hair in an up-do.

I was really surprised.  So, for a year before my wedding, I have to have the same sad haircut I had in middle school?  All for one good hair day?  Sounds crazy, right?

At this point I'm not sure I even want an up-do, so I may eschew her advice and keep cutting my hair normally.   I'm just curious, have you heard of this before?  Is it something you did before your wedding?  Spill it!
