Romantic Hair

Sometimes I like to wear my long hair up…on this day I chose a braided chignon.  It was great for keeping hair out of my face, as it was very windy!
I also added some antique-looking hair pins purchased very inexpensively (about a dollar or so) at the local dollar store.
Do you have a favorite way to wear your hair?

  1. What lovely photos 🙂
    Your hair looks beautiful, Joy!
    So pretty and feminine and well done!
    I have much finer hair nowdays.. but I still keep it long and put it up when I leave the house.

  2. You can do it, Andrea! This is a really simple style to do…I think the hardest part about most up-dos is just holding the hair. It feels awkward a lot of the time. And my up-dos are never perfect…I'm thankful the trend right now is "messy hair," as that's the look I end up with most of the time! 🙂

  3. Not yet, but I know what I like! This one is really one of them. Love the hairpins!

    I said to myself that next Christmas must be the first day to wear my hair up. The only thing I have to do right now is to let it grow ;o)

  4. I wear a lot of updo's typically a lose messy side bun. But a lot of times I jsut wing it. My hair never comes out the same. Your hair is pretty.

  5. Thank you, ladies, for sharing about your hair, and for your kind comments–I enjoyed reading all of them!

    Isn't it funny–I've always longed for straight hair! 🙂

  6. It looks so pretty Joy!

    My hair is growing long, since it is curly, it is taking quite a bit of time to get past my shoulders 🙂

    But I do like to wear it loose with pretty clips on the sides to keep it from my face.

    Thank you for sharing.

  7. It is beautiful, Joy! When seeing lovely, feminine styles such as this it makes me wish my hair was curly so I could do them and have them look like this. 🙂 It looks so nice on you!

  8. I cut mine last month…I think I like it longer better. This is beautiful…my girls all still have long hair and we do all kinds of braids and pin ups.

    Thanks for sharing yours! It's lovely!

  9. Your chignon and pin are so pretty! I love soft, feminine updo's, too.

    My straight hair doesn't bend very easily, so a french twist is usually the only thing that will stay put 🙂
