Wedding Hair - Keep Style You Like

Dear Dr. Dave and Dr. Dee,

I'm getting married next year, and my mother wants me to cut my hair or wear it up in bun. My hair is simple and straight, and falls just past my shoulders. I've had this same style for the last 10 years. I hadn't planned on doing anything special to my hair, but my mom thinks that a wedding requires a special hairdo. What is the trend?

Signed,

Dear Splitting Hairs,

If you have a hairstyle that you like, then keep it. If you are thinking of cutting your hair, then do it now. If you don't like it, you have enough time to grow it out. If you're not used to wearing a bun, then try it out now. If you are comfortable with it and like it, then you can do that for the wedding.

The important thing is to be comfortable. Planning your wedding as well as the wedding day itself will have enough stresses without the added one of a new hairdo.
