Maybe a really good wig, or those hair pieces that add length to your hair. Talk the rest into getting their hair cut short? I thought short hair was "in" now, anyway. Are the others wearing their hair down or tying it up? See a really great hair dresser for ideas?
Just tossing out thoughts here.

my advice is wear it like you always wear it. trust me, i have been in many weddings and it always seems like big deal at the time, but it really is not. best to save money and feel comfortable, you will be beautiful regardless!

My sister in law has short hair and it looked really cute when she was in my wedding. She had it styled that day so it looked like she normally wears it, but a little fuller (I guess that's the term). Then she added some little pearls here and there. It looked cute!
What kind of a headpiece (if any) are you wearing? That may help decide what to do. Or can you go to a stylist and ask their opinion?

I need help too!
I am getting married next week and I don't know what to do with my hair. At this point, I am so aggravated, I think I might leave it down. I have long hair but its out of control most of the time. AARRGGG!!! I am having my hair cut next week.

Pinkroses, what is your wedding date? Mine is 9/22 and Nicola is getting married this weekend! Too cool we're all tying the knot so close together! :)
I have long, layered hair (pics are on my site) and I am going to wear mine down and just curl it all up with a curling iron. kind of like Faith Hill had her hair on her BREATHE album cover. I messed around w/ it and it looked really good. So I did my hair that way last time I had a fitting on my gown (it's strapless) and it looked great. Give curls a try if you want to wear it down!

If I were you, I'd go to a sylist and tell them you're problem. They are wonderful! I'm sure they'll have plenty of ideas...Hey that's their job right? They can curl even the shortest hair, so maybe they could do something pretty like that. You can go to a search engine and search for pictures of short hair styled for special occasions. I'd find you a link, but I can't post any here. :( If you find one you really like, print it out and bring it to the stylist and see if she can do it for you!
You're hair doesn't necessarily have to be done for you're wedding anyway. Like emarion said, if you want, wear it like you always wear it. If you're still wanting to have something done to maybe 'enhance' you're look for this special day, you could consider going to a cosmetologist and having them do you're make-up in a fresh new way. :)
I'm running out of little ideas so I'll just stop lol.. I hope you have a wonderful wedding! :)

I think wearing your hair as you normally do is the best idea. Or wear it up in a simple French twist. That looks very classic and beautiful. Get a trim first, so your hair is in good shape with no split ends. I think elaborated coiffed and curled "wedding hair" looks stupid.

thanks all for your replies...the brides cousin (who is a stylist) is doing our hair that day. Maybe i can just do it as usual but find something little to put in it or maybe just a little glitter. i appreciate your help! http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/heart.gif

That is so cool! Too bad we can't post pics. I'll post some of my wedding pics on my website, though.
