Good points though. Thanks

I'm in the UK, I see the odd updo here and there and it always looks nice, I don't think it has to in, it's not the most trendy style but I don't think it's something that is totally out.
I had a wedding recently I didn't wear an updo because I don't like how it looks on me but I would've if it did.
I do see some interesting pony styles sometimes so maybe try something like that.

Beautiful and classic. Just saw the mother of the bride with this hairdo at a very fashionable wedding (and she herself does wigs).

It won't allow me access for some reason. I'd love to see it!

The picture posted is very in for the at least a year already. Pulled back in a low "down-do", elegant, sophisticated but not too much.

What can I Google that it might come up?
My teen niece's actually had stunning for their hair . Very elegant, all up with a big satin bow to match their dress.

I can't imagine that working on a wig.

Yes I’ve seen it a lot for 2 years for sure, it’s a low bun style

I'm in the UK. Had a siblings wedding recently in Golders Green. Had my wig in a pony. It looked stunning and I got loads of compliments. Not sure an older woman can can pull it off though. Penina Gershon did my mum and sis, you can check her stuff out on Instagram, she is very trendy.

I quite like this pony style with the pieces in the front.

Yes, and the other pic can work for a wig. You need an experienced wig stylist. I'm 37 and wore a similar style to my DS's bar mitzva last year.
I personally don't like the pony look because it's a more informal style even when done elegantly, and also to me it's more of a teenage style. Not saying it can't be done, but I personally wouldn't go for it. A low bun is classy and elegant. You can pull out more hairs in front or less according to your taste.

The newer wigs are multi directional
I did very similar on my wig 2 months ago

I don't really know about trends, but last summer I got my sheitel done in a really nice pony with hair left in front to frame my face and I got so many compliments.

Can I ask how old you are please?
I'm now debating between a pony or a low bun.
I'm 37. But feel so much younger 😅

I was just at a beautiful wedding , the family knows very well what’s “in” and the sister of the kallah had her shaitel in a beautiful slightly messy updo. But why not do what’s flattering for you in any case ?
