Long hairstyles are so versatile, not only for different looks, but also for fancier styles and up-do's as well. Longer hair can be worn long and loose, with romantic curls or up in a bun for a fanciful look. Here are 6 amazing long style for women.
1. Long and layered with razor-cut ends. This look is great for many face types (round, oval, square, etc.) and is versatile as well, as you can leave it loose, curl to make ringlets and even have a partial up-do like a messy bun or even a French braid.

2. Long and curly. Romantic curls are always popular, especially among women with long hair. Stars like Jessica Simpson and Kate Beckingsale have gorgeous long hair with loose curls.

3. Tousled layers. This works best for hair that is medium in texture (not for fine or extremely thick locks). To get the look, ask your stylist for long layers and when styling, finger-comb through your tendrils for a classic tousled look. You can also make a partial up-do by sweeping up the sides with barrettes or Bobby-pins and letting the back cascade down in flowing layers. Perfect for a special date or that wedding you have to attend.

4. Ringlets. This has to be one of the most romantic and sexy looks for women with long hair. There are many ways to achieve ringlets: You can either use a curling iron or old-fashioned curlers, plus lots of strong hairspray to keep the look. For a fancier look, sweep the ringlets up into a loose, messy bun and adorn with crystal-detail Bobby-pins.

5. Long shag. This style, which features long and short layers, became popular in the 1960s and 70s, and also hit a high note with Jennifer Aniston in the mid-90s with her famous shag as Rachel Green on Friends. For this hairstyle, opt for razor-cut, wispy bangs for a modern twist to this cut. Of course, you can also turn under the ends and clip with Bobby-pins for a Bob-style look without getting your hair cut. Many celebrities have worn this faux-Bob style, such as Rosario Dawson, Amy Adams and Leighton Meester.

6. Wavy locks with wispy or blunt-cut bangs. This is a popular look and helps to hide a high or wide forehead. It's also quite sexy if your hair is naturally wavy and you side-sweep you bangs to one side. For a fancy night-on-the-town style, try pinning up just the bangs and sides and using a curling iron on the loose tresses in the back for romantic ringlets or barrel curls. Use a long-lasting hairspray to help make your beautiful up-do and curls last.

The factors that go into making a decision are the type of wedding dress, which way the bride feels most comfortable and most beautiful, jewelry that is to be worn, as well as hair adornments such as veils and barrettes. Generally speaking, a bride will keep her hair the same way for the ceremony and reception, so being comfortable in it for an entire day is important. A helpful way to decide on the style, is to take photos ahead of time, so she can more objectively see what she will look like in each.

Wedding dresses with bare shoulders and low necklines go well with long, flowing hairstyles. Wearing a long, flowing hairstyle with a high-necked wedding dress that covers the chest may look too busy overall.However low cut, bare-shouldered dresses can really suit an updo, with long curling tendrils pulled down from it, and drop earrings.

Topknots are also an elegant, timeless choice for women with long hair. They frame the face, draw attention to the eyes, and display jewelry very well.

Whichever long wedding hairstyle a bride chooses, there are different ways to adorn the hair, such as placing small clips, barrettes, or special curled pieces throughout the style. Ensure that whatever style you choose will work well with your wedding veil. Brides with long hair have many beautiful choices for their wedding hairstyles.

A woman's wedding day is one of the most important days of her life, therefore, finding the right choice in a short hairstyle will go a long way in helping her to feel confident and lovely.

Short hairstyles are a wonderful way to frame a bride's face, draw attention to the eyes, and highlight lovely wedding jewelry.

It should be noted that changing to a short hairstyle for a wedding should not be a last-minute decision, rather the bride should have already been wearing her hair in a short style for some time, and be comfortable with it. A bride should be happy, comfortable and confident with her hairstyle before her wedding. All of a sudden changing it before she gets married can lead to feelings of regret.

A more simple design of headband and veil may look better with the curly hairstyle.It's a good idea to take into account the overall look of the hair, jewelry, and dress and how they will all work together.
