Don’t Fret About Your Wedding Hair Style – Keep Your Hair On
A flowing, sensuous gown, perfect accessories, coquettish veil can be bought from the best stores but what about your hair? To complete the “look”, you need the most suitable hairdo. The bride must look her best and having a bad hair day on her wedding would be an unforgivable faux pas. Take the trouble and have stunning tresses on the big day.
Some salons offer ‘hair spa treatment’ which can leave your hair softer and silkier. Take the treatment a week before your wedding. You may have to plan the look in advance so that your hair is of the length you require and cut in accordance with the wedding hairdo. If you see a good hairstyle in a magazine, cut it out. Your regular salon may also give you suggestions. Select a hairstyle that enhances your looks and goes well with the wedding outfit. You could have a few practice sessions with your hairdresser. The trials will give you an idea if that dream hair style becomes you. You will also determine how comfortable you are with the style. Some elaborate dos cause great discomfort with too many pins.
Remember to keep in mind the basic shape of your face. If your face is round, don’t allow it to look rounder. An angular face may look better with soft curls around it. The style has to last for ten hours, so don’t try something that may not last. Dancing can also
leave you with a tousled look.
If your hair is short, try out a soft wave or curls. You could also look for some pretty accessories. Don’t hesitate to use hair spray and grips. A light mousse may not be effective. If you have long hair, some brides like to partially pull the hair off their face and secure it with a clip or ribbon. The mystery of a bride with a veil or a crown of flowers is enhanced with flowing wavy hair. If you prefer to wear a tiara, pull back your hair for an aristocratic look. If you want a straightened look, use a hair iron.
For a day wedding you can have casual, loose hair but for an evening affair an upsweep would be formal and just perfect. The hair dresser can give you several options from a French twist, bun, braids or even a low ponytail. If you want it decorative, use accessories.
Hair color looks best if used a week or ten days before the wedding. Again a warning, don’t experiment with a new or wild color if the wedding is very close. Don’t even perm your hair within a week to the wedding even if your hair dresser recommends it.
If you are having your hair up, long earrings can look stunning. If you have a long neck, this is a glamorous look which you can carry off with confidence. If your hair is loose, let your hair draw the attention and not the jewelry.
Remember, your hair is your crowning glory. Whatever the hair style, wear it with panache and don’t turn a hair. That’s for the groom to do when he sees you on the wedding day.
