Hair!!!!!!! Day of or day before!

Are you having your hair done the day of  wedding or the day before? I have no idea what to do with my hair for the wedding day. I have shoulder length relaxed hair. I want to wear an updo that is put together but still natural looking ( Not too much gel & stiff curls ghetto girl look). Does anyone have any pics they would like to share.

    I will have my hair down for the festivities on the day before. Then, I'm having my hair pulled up for the wedding. My wedding starts at noon, so I will be getting up early. See my bio for hair suggestions.

    I am getting it done the day of so that it will be fresh. I plan to leave it this way during our honeymoon. By the way, how are you ladies fixing ur hair for your honeymoon? Im not good at styling, so i plan to keep the style for the honeymoon. We are going to Paris. (Not looking to be around water)

    My wedding is at 3:00 so I'm planning on getting mine done the morning of.  Both of my FSIL's are stylists and they have been so kind to offer to do my hair and makeup =)I want to wear it down the whole time but want to add a little something to it...I'm thinking of coloring it though.

    Morning of but my wedding isn't until 5:30 so we have a bit of time.  Bridal party is doing it, as much as possible, the day before (b/c they will be left in the changing room and not participating in the wedding if they come in 30 minutes before the wedding is about to start and aren't ready in time - I DO MEAN to have an on-time wedding). :)

    Feleciae, we have the same ideas in mind. Although I haven't found any pictures of the styles that are elegant yet natural looking. I told my girls that I didn't want no styles plastered to their head, no flips on one side and pin curls at the top with a mohawk down the middle (LOL),  looking all ghetto. LOL!  If you find some pics please share them. I think I will have my hair preped the day before and then have the fresh fininshing touches the day of. GL!

    I am getting my do done the morning of my wedding because me, the BM's, and a few of my family members are going out the night before and I do not want my hair looking like I just tied it up and took the wrap off the day of my wedding. though it is on a Sunday and the ceremony does not start til 3, I just want to avoid the above mentioned.

    I had mine prepped the night before and completed the morning of.  I had to sleep in rollers. I had a soft curl updo, I can add u to my fb so you can see pics if you like.  Just tell me who to look for.
