Semi-Formal hair style??

If you have medium to longer length hair, the standard for semi-formal to formal is to have something done that is much different from a day to day style. Hence, updo's.

An updo that leaves some of your hair dangling down the back (nape) of your neck is usually very flattering to all face and body shapes. In fact, leaving some hair dangling down diminishes any harsh lines that a total updo can leave and generally is more slimming if this is a concern.

Don't try to do this yourself though unless you have practiced several times before the date! If you do it yourself, have someone there to help you with the back and to insure the bobby pins are hidden. It could end up being a panic session and frustration. Find a salon that REGULARLY does updos. (Ask any parent of a high school age girl to find one) or another often great and inexpensive source is to go to a beauty school. Make sure you ask for a advanced student to work on your hair. An experienced person will take about 1-2 hours to do a beautiful look.

Make sure to tell them if you want braids and curls etc... incorporated into the look and whether or not you want all of your forehead hair pulled tightly or loosely back etc.
