Bridal
hairstyles need to reflect the brides' personality and personal style. The
"natural" days are finally ending as today's bride looks for
"more" from her wedding day salon services. More fun, more beauty, and
more individuality are what brides are in search of. Creative
personal touches help originate a "signature touch" for the couples'
big day.
Long
Hair
If your hair is long and
you wear it pulled back most of the time than an elegant Updo would be just the
look. Incorporate a detail from your gown into your hair design. Details such as
braiding or twisting of fabric can be duplicated into the hairstyle. Or look to
the texture of the dress.
A soft wispy hairstyle
complements a full-skirted tulle gown. A smooth gown of a heavy weight fabric is
complemented by a smooth, shiny hairstyle of knots or rolls. Do you wear your
long hair down most of the time? Then try wearing some of it up away from your
face and leave the rest to cascade around your shoulders. Let few tendrils
escape to float around your face, they can be curled or left natural. Having it
all down is just too casual for the big day.
Tip:
Natural curls? Enhance them and work with them; keep your look soft. Straight
hair? Don’t expect a set to last all day, wear it up. If the curls are pinned
in place there will be less worry.
Medium
Hair
If your hair is medium in
length it can be curled and worn with a sparkly headband or tiara to dress it
up. Or simply tuck some hair behind your ears and use one of the very popular
decorative hair clips to hold it back. With the help of a talented stylist, your
hair can also be worn up.
Tip:
If your dream is to wear it up and you have a few months grow it out, go for it.
Medium hair is versatile, try a few looks with your stylist at least a few
months ahead of time. This helps to chart out the growing process.
Short
Hair
Believe me there is lots
that can be done! Dust off your curling iron and give your hair some fullness in
the crown area and back. Don't curl the front, it won't look like you. Flatter
fronts are in right now so sweep the hair off to the side and save the curls for
the back area. Today's "curls" are for creating texture. Many hair
products on the market are designed for "texturizing the hair" not
necessarily for hold.
Tip:
Don't touch the curls while they are warm, it will loosen them up too much. Once
cooled run your finger through your hair with some hair wax and pinch and place
the "texture" where you want it! Don't brush them out it will look too
poufy, frizzy, and (Horror!) dated!! Top your do with a tiara or a few hair
clips and you are ready to go!
