Overnight hairstyle for wedding

Beth18

Hi,

I'm going to a wedding in a few weeks which is down the country so I need to get my hair styled the night before. Does anyone have suggestions what I could get done that would hold overnight and look ok for the day of the wedding?

Thanks ladies

Is the wedding so early that you can't book a hairdo in a local salon?

It starts at 12 and we've been told to give it 4 hours to get there so we'd be leaving early enough without adding my hair appt onto the time frame

Your staying in a hotel overnight that's a 4 hour drive to the wedding venue? Why not stay somewhere a bit closer?

I'd assume they're staying in their home and travelling down that morning??

Straight blow dry perhaps does it have to be up ? Maybe pinned back in the morning

That's it of course. I'm getting it all wrong! Sorry OP!

Leaving to go to a wedding at 8 am is too long of a day for me.
Even if I had to borrow the money for a B&B I'd have to go down the night before and book a local salon for 10am.

Yeah we're travelling from home that morning, doesn't have to be up, was thinking of a pin and curl but I've never had it before and id be worried my hair would be like a poodle when I'd take out the pins in the morning?

I have the babyliss heated rollers easy to do yourself half hour in the morning top's. Look at tutorials on line I got them for 40.00 euro they are well worth it. Wash your hair the night before and in the morning throw them in. I use the big ones bit of hairspray and shake them out. Nice and easy.

I have done that in the past (it was my brother's wedding) but the hairdresser was delayed and ridiculously slow so I ended up having about 15 minutes to get dressed and do my make up!

OP, can you not just run a wand through your hair or watch Youtube to learn a simple upstyle. Getting it done the night before just seems like loads of hassle. The only thing that I think would hold is some form of braid but that all depends on your style.

Sunday weddings are a pain for appointments too.
I just get a straight blowdry the day before and wear a hair net in bed Saturday night.
I'm happy with how it keeps.

Yeah I think curly blow dry might be the way to go and put a hair net on overnight. Thanks for the advise girls

Have you used the good old fashioned foam twisty rollers! They are great.. Just put them in you hair the night before and sure you will have plenty of time in the car to unwind them and you hair will be lovely.. Just get a small comb or an afro comb or those ones with the long stick end, and a hair net your sorted.

I had this problem a few months ago. I explained to the local hairdresser and she did a wavy blowdry for me the evening before, but she did it tight enough that there was room for the waves to drop a little overnight. Came out lovely.

Yeah I'm just going to get a curly blow dry and have them pin the curls so I can just brush them through in the morning

Exactly what I was going to suggest. You'll look a bit like Diana Ross in the video for Chain Reaction when you first brush them through but they will drop. Do it before you leave for the drive and they'll be fine by the time you get there.
