DH has even done some of the pinning for me when I've done it in the car and couldn't see the little hairs in the back that escaped because I didn't have a good mirror, it still turned out fine. And you can even stick a cute flower or sparkly clip in there :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tips-for-hair-updo#post-677933 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 14:37:45 +0000 LindsayInNY 677933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: I think that's going to be my best approach - curl, tease and start pinning! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tips-for-hair-updo#post-677873 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 14:05:43 +0000 heffalump 677873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just take a bunch of bobby pins and start pinning my hair toward the middle of my head, and I keep going until all my hair is up. Then I shake my head to make sure it is all in there good :) I don't have any pictures though....... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tips-for-hair-updo#post-677796 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 13:23:13 +0000 MsLipGloss 677796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNYC: Smaller ones are definitely worth a shot! And yep, you should be able to curl with a curling iron or flat iron, pin to cool, tease a little (for lift and extra texture for better hold), secure with pins, and you should be good to go! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tips-for-hair-updo#post-677720 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 12:47:47 +0000 LindsayInNY 677720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: I don't have rollers but I think I'll curl with a curling iron and maybe pin up to cool? Then twist and secure like you said? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tips-for-hair-updo#post-677683 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 12:24:10 +0000 mrs. wagon 677683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you put hot rollers in your hair to get everything volumized and curly, it will make everything easier to manage. Once you've got it all curled, spritz with some hairspray and twist up and secure with a few pins, then just take the ends and bobby pin them down . </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tips-for-hair-updo#post-677671 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 12:17:25 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 677671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oncewed.com posts hair how-tos on a regular basis. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tips-for-hair-updo#post-677656 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 12:11:50 +0000 LindsayInNY 677656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: I got the longer ones for free somewhere but my hair is too short for them. I wonder if the smaller ones would work? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tips-for-hair-updo#post-677609 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 11:54:18 +0000 MsLipGloss 677609@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsmenow: What a great blog - thanks for sharing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tips-for-hair-updo#post-677558 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 11:29:48 +0000 MsLipGloss 677558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNYC: These hair doo dads have changed my life . . . easy in and out, and secure!
