Discover up-sweep hairstyles for the bride.
Up-sweeps or up-dos are very popular among brides planning their perfect wedding day hairstyle. Up-sweeps provide a dose of elegance while adding a flair for style and individuality. In an up-sweep, the hair is pulled away from the face and gathered into a twist or bun on the head. There are many ways to style your up-sweep, whether you want it sculptured and pristine or stylish and messy.
High Up-Sweep
A high up-sweep combines a classic up-do with modern touches. A high up-sweep can be created using many of the ideas below, but starts with a ponytail or gathering of the hair in a higher position, near the top of the head. This style adds height and drama to the top of the head . It is important to try high up-sweeps with your veil before the day of your wedding to ensure that the veil fits on or around the up-sweep.
Sculptured Low Sweep
This style is set lower on the head and incorporates a dramatic sculpture of hair. The upper half of the hair (minus the front section) is gathered into a medium to low ponytail. The front section and the lower half (not in ponytail) is put into rollers for large waves. The ponytail is then looped under and spread, with the ends bobby pinned to the head. Sections from the top front and the front temple area are then pulled back and pinned, overlapping each other, using hair wax to keep it smooth. The bottom curls are brought up in the same way and pinned smoothly.
Crown of Curls
An up-sweep with an abundance of curls creates a romantic look. The hair is gathered to a single point smoothly or with weaving and twisting. Once all of the hair is gathered, curl small sections. If you desire firm and tight curls, decrease the diameter of the curling iron or roller. For softer curls that fall down further, use an iron with a larger diameter. Curls are pulled into the gathering point and bobby pinned to hold.
Double Ponytail Sweep
To create this look, make two pony tails, one high on the head and one lower. Tease both ponytails and then divide the ponytails in half. Take each section and wrap it up in a bun, pinning it well for security. This creates an up-sweep with the look of multiple buns which are accented nicely with flowers.
