There are salons that specialize in long hair, conditioning rather than cutting. While they may also have modern sensibilities regarding styles, they do know how to handle long lengths. The idea of bringing a picture or two is a good one.

The George Michael Salon in New York has affiliates and also trains people who might work in a salon or independently in other cities.

Also check discussion forums for long hair enthusiasts. They should be able to recommend someone in your area.

I would be really interested to hear the result, if you choose this approach, because, to be honest, I never had much luck. My hair is just to my waist, and I have found that hairdressers are more practised in putting up hair that is to shoulder-blades or shorter. They don't seem to know where to "store" all the length, and weight, before doing fancy stuff with the last 8 inches.

This is a thought...take an image of what you want and take it to a hairdresser that does bridal styles. Ask them if they can recreate the style. There are hairdressers that specialize in bridal up-dos.
