tutorial : long hair updo

This wedding hair updo is also featured in Once Wed's recent magazine!  Here's the tutorial for achieving this look on your own!  (Well, relatively speaking.  Having an extra set of hands around to help never hurts!)

1. Take a 1 inch thick piece of hair in your hands and twist it. 
2. Hold one tiny strand at the tip of the twist and push the remaining hair up into a ringlet on your head.  
3. Wrap the remaining strand around the ringlet and use a bobby pin to pin the ringlet to your head 
4. To recreate the top image, grab a friend who can help you create and pin ringlets all the way around.

BEAUTY : hair + makeup + once wed

Working alongside Emily and Joy of Once Wed for this shoot was an absolute dream.

Head over to the post on Once Wed for more images from the shoot, and pick up a copy of their magazine for even more looks we created together!
