I need an easy messy updo?

i have a wedding to go to on the 14th of this month. it is at 7pm. the ceremony is outside and the reception is indoors (a local mansion). i am wearing a black dress, 5 inch edges, and gold accessories. i bought a gold headband that is embelished with studs.

i need a messy updo (nothing too formal) that my friend can do for me. obviously neither of us are hairstylists, so we need something that is relatively simple to do.

i have short dark brown hair (it hits just above the shoulder) and bangs. my hair is straight and has a hard time holding curls.

heeeelp!!

thank you.

I'd try a elegant look like this: http://www.beautyriot.com/article.php?id... It's so pretty! Ok, I know you said your hair won't hold curls but in this case it should. First, apply a volumizing mousse to dry hair. Then curl all of it, really concentrating on the ends. Once all of it is curled, spray all over with a strong hold hairspray,while scrunching the ends. Then part hair on the side (hers in on the left). Then comb in your head band, while leaving your hair parted. ( this sounds like it would look cute with your outfit by the way) Next, tease your hair at the back(near the crown). Then gently pull back into a ponytail. Use clear rubber bands. Then using another clear rubber band, tie it into a loose bun. Secure any crazy pieces with bobby pins that match your hair color. Finish the look off by spraying once again with hairspray. Good luck!

You need to buy a big(3 in. Long)Hair clip and then hold your hair in a low ponytail and then twist it and put it up against your head. And then put in the clip and make sure that it is around the small tubish shaped bun and make sure that the clip scrapes your head to embrace the clip so that it doesnt come out and the top is flopping around and it is really cute. Curl your bangs and it is a great hair-do. Make sure that the clip is gold. Good Luck Michaela M.
