Description
A long curly formal updo can be best described as soft, full, elegant, neat and tidy, structured, high, positioned and tailored. They include full tied back and pulled up curls with soft face-framing pieces, high buns with curls falling out and down and pin curls or barrel curls pinned in place. All of these looks can be worn to any formal function, event or special and important outing.
Method
These types of updos are best performed by a qualified stylist and are generally curled, pinned, tied, teased, gelled, waxed, brushed smooth and lacquered into place. Styling time can vary from 30 minutes to 2 hours or more (when hair needs to be set in rollers and dried or heat appliances used).
Benefit
These hairstyles are the ultimate for dressing up and changing your entire look (all within a couple of hours). They generally have long lasting strength in good weather due to the pinning and styling aids used while they're also great for keeping hair out of your eyes and off your face- and more importantly off your shoulders, allowing your clothes and jewellery to enjoy some of the attention. Curls are soft in design and have an elegant, glamorous look that suits formal occasions best.
