How do brides and bridesmaids take their hair out after the wedding?

I'm gonna be a bridesmaid in my cousins wedding and I have my hairstyle planned out already. It'll be a curly half-up half-down style with a bunch of those cute curls in the back :) My question is, at the end when everything's over, how the HELL do we take our hair out and does it hurt?

1. spending like an hour pulling a gazillion bobbie pins and rubberbands out. My husband had to help me.. that was the beginning of our wedding night fun was taking my hair down.
2. you pull out the bobby pins and no it dont hurt
3. HAHA just take out the gazillion bobby pins....It doesnt hurt but ur head may hurt from it being pinned tight on ur head...part of the fun of being in a wedding...
4. Whenever I have a fussy 'do, I just pull out the bobby pins, combs and whatnot, and then step into the shower so the shampoo and water can work on the gel and hairspray. No big deal.
5. You grab a glass of wine and a good DVD and start slowly puling out bobby pins. No, it doesn't hurt. Good grief!! then you get into the shower, shampoo two or even 3 times, and then use loads of conditioner/rinse to get all the tangles / hair spray out easy-peasy.
6. Haha...great question. Time...when you get back to the hotel, remove all the bobby pins and clips, and then just sleep on it. seriously. You just need time and the natural sweat from sleep to help soften your over-hairsprayed hair. Then, shower in the morning, and use really good conditioner to give your hair back its moisture that it lost from all the stress of the hairstyle.
7. Slowly and carefully... lol. I looked down afterwards (because I was watching tv while I was doing it), and there were like 50 of them. It doesn't hurt if you just take it slow. Just shower and condition the hair and it will be fine. : )
8. Start taking it out slowly. If the hair was done right, it shouldn't hurt at all. Once you think you have it all out, jump in the shower to start getting the hairspray out which will help you figure out if there are any bobby pins remaining.
9. Taking the hair out will hurt less than wearing the hair up does. Take out everything you can fine easily. If they sprayed it down (which they always do, no matter how much you tell them otherwise) then the next step is to wash your hair. Take out any more pins/elastics as you find them. If they didn't spray it/you can't conveniently wash it then, then brush it out to find any pins which are left.
