This is a natural, looser approach to the Hollywood or glam bridal waves, in my opinion. You can make this look bridal by adding pearl bobby pins or a hair accessory piece to minor side for a razzle dazzle.

Truthfully, I pulled this hairstyle as inspiration for my wedding day. I didn’t go with this look, however, but I loved the vintage feel to it. It’s almost a half-up, half-down style because one side is pinned up. You could add some clip-ins to achieve this look.

This is a different approach to half-up, half-down. This hairstyle can work for those that want to put their bridal mane on display.

What is it, the braids? Yes, Teyonah’s braids are fashioned into a bun on the top of her haid, but the twists within the bun add dimensions that take it to another level.
