9. Graduated Wedding Downdo

Out of all the bride hairstyles, long hair options always tend to look most romantic. To get truly elegant hair for your big day, ask your stylist to include a bouffant and draped long bangs or face-framing layers. When paired with soft, shiny curls, your final result should be a cascading waterfall of beautiful locks.

10. Curly Low Bun

Bring your long wedding hair into a low bun that’s packed with twists and curls. A professional hairdresser will know exactly how to position each strand for optimal beauty. Don’t forget to add a touch of baby’s breath or a jeweled hair clip to finish off your style.

11. Curly Half Updo for Brides

Adding ombre or balayage color to your wedding day hair is a special, modern touch to a classic look. If your hair is longer than shoulder length, you can further show off your color transition with loose, flowing curls.

12. Bridal Mermaid Waves

Wedding hairstyles for long hair are fairly simple for women who sport healthy, lengthy locks. For thick extra long hair, try a wavy hairstyle, mermaid waves with an elegant hair piece and voluminous side bangs.

13. Braided Crown with Hairband

The romantic, renaissance-inspired wedding hair is accomplished through loose curls and a braid crown that wraps around a small bouffant. The hairdo is finished with a jeweled hairband to secure everything in place and add some fancy sparkle to the dark hair.

15. Updo with Side Tendrils

Long hairstyles for wedding don’t have to be super complicated. This simple messy chignon is made more elegant with some softly curled side tendrils. The trick to this style is to avoid perfection – go with the natural direction of your hair and embrace wisps and independent curls.

16. Side Part Hollywood Waves

The Hollywood wave is undeniably a perfect wedding hairstyle. To create these gorgeous sleek curls, curl small sections of hair, securing each curl till it cools. Then, gently release the spirals and apply some hair spray for a luxurious finish.

17. Flower Crown Alternative

Instead of a veil or slicked back updo, keep things sweet for a springtime or summer wedding with a crown of flowers. Selected flowers like baby’s breath and roses should be hardy enough to hold up in this simple and very cute all-day hairdo.

18. Loose Wedding Downdo

Loose and oversized braids have been popular for quite some time, but when it comes to wedding styles for long hair, they are still a relatively new idea. Long, medium to thick hair will work best with a chunky braid. Add in some fresh blossoms or loose jewels to formalize the ‘do.

19. Big Country Hair

Southern girls know that the bigger the hair, the more effective the glam! Now anyone can take a cue from Nashville with big, curly wedding hair that has plenty of sass and style. A side sweep will allow for further volume and incorporation of bangs.
