Wedding Countdown Day 9: Preventing Hair Woes

Wow. We’re into the single-digits now! I took the day off work so that I could try to knock out a few items on my to-do list: phone calls to vendors, picking up bubbly, ordering beer. One of the biggies: sort of a trial run on how my hair will be for the wedding. This was something that was important to me and I wasn’t sure if I’d have time to fit it in. 

I have friends who have had their hair done for special events and after sitting in the stylist’s chair for two hours—they absolutely hate the outcome. I don’t even wear hair spray normally—I certainly don’t want a style that looks like a can of shellac was used to paint it in place. I also don’t want to look like I’m going to prom. 

Consider it a dress rehearsal for my hair. It’s not that I don’t trust the stylist—but if there is going to be an outcome that is less than favorable, let it happen at dress rehearsal.
