Vintage hairstyles are eternally popular for weddings, but a too-literal interpretation can leave a bride with a serious case of helmet head. So what’s the key to borrowing from the past without looking stuck in it? Texture and movement. “The perfectly coiffed updo is outdated,” says Dani Weidner, a stylist at Robert James Color in San Francisco. “Imperfect is best.”

To balance contemporary trends with a retro influence, Weidner designed this ’20s-inspired updo. A defined curl and thick roll give a nod to the past, but the overall look feels fresh and current. It’s an ideal style for brides — and it’s one you can do at home. To get the look, read on for pictures and step-by-step instructions.

The Botticelli of Hair.

It takes an artist to paint, even if the canvas is your hair-and Robert James, of Robert James Color, is an old master at age 38.  He has perfected a technique called balayage (it means “to sweep” in French), involving painted-on highlights, rather than full highlights or foils, that can last six months.  Gisele, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kelly Clarkson are all sporting this look right now.  “You don’t have to deal with roots or retouching, and you can do a little or a lot, in whatever color combinations you want,” James says.  You can also get partial and hairline treatments between full appointments for a fraction of the $160 cost.
