Bridal hairstyles for long hair

Bridal hairstyles with long hair are then the other extreme when it comes to length. With long hair, a put-up hairstyle is not impossible, but when you have really thick long hair, it quickly becomes very heavy.

Often brides with long hair want to show off their long bun as well, and a half-raised is opted for bridal hairstyle. Tied at the top, with possibly a braid with or without ribbon, and a little looser at the bottom. You can of course opt for a more casual version of the traditional bridal hairstyle, or just very tightly cut.
