Curls, Volume and Updos: Party and Wedding Hair at Scissors and Comb

December in Goa means weddings, Christmas parties and New Year celebrations. Here are three styles from our salon in Cuncolim that work for an evening out, a reception or a family function.

Long spiral curls

Defined spiral curls from mid-length to the ends give long hair real volume and movement. They suit gowns, dresses and saris alike, and a light hairspray helps them hold through an evening of dancing.

Layered cut with a volume blow-dry

A layered cut gives hair shape and lift. Finished with a round-brush blow-dry and the ends turned out, it looks full and polished but still soft, and it is easy to recreate for a smaller occasion.

A pinned updo for an evening gown

For an open-back dress or gown, an updo keeps the neckline clear. This one combines a soft braid, a low gathered bun, loose face-framing tendrils and small decorative pins.

Tips for the day

  • Bring a photo of your outfit, and of any hairstyle you like, to your appointment.
  • Book a trial before a wedding so there are no surprises on the day.
  • Wash your hair the evening before rather than the morning of, as very fresh hair can be too slippery to hold curls or pins.
  • See our wedding season hair care guide for what to do in the weeks before.
