Sophisticated Wedding Updo for Brunette Bride

Quite tight updos are fairly common at weddings. But the risk of tightness is it can limit styling options, look too harsh, and make the hairstyle look devoid of personality.

This brunette bride, seen here from the back, has a pretty tight bridal updo. It's not very tight, and it does show some personality.

The special updo was designed with many different sections separated and independently curled or twisted. The division of the hair, however, makes several partings quite pronounced on the side of her head.

Not every bride will want that look—it's a bit strong, especially for brunettes. (It wouldn't be very noticeable on blondes, though.)

White floral hair ornaments are a good decision for this type of updo. It softens the look, making it more romantic and bridal.

Note that white is the most popular wedding hair ornament color, but white ornaments contrast the most with dark hair. Because they stand out more, you need to pay more attention to how they look, and how many you add to your hair.
