My family is extra, so holy communion is a big deal for them. My mom was freaking out about making me and my sister look perfect for our big day. From the gowns to the tiara and veils, everything had to be perfect.
It almost became a disaster though, since mama bear forgot about the perfect first holy communion hairstyles. It was until the last minute that she realized our wild curls needed to be tamed. Then the search for the perfect holy communion hair began.
Although we turned out looking great, here are 55 new unique and trendy holy communion hairstyles that I wish we had known about.
