Getting Your Wedding Hairstyle Right

Posted: Sep 23, 2010 |Comments: 0 |

Apart from the choice of wedding gown, the bride's decision on wedding hairstyle is one of the biggest choices she will make. However, there are so many options and with no rules on how you can and can't wear your hair on your wedding day, it can be a very overwhelming task. It doesn't have to be this way though. With extensive planning and the expertise of a skilled hair stylist you can make sure you can turn your dream of beautiful wedding hair into a reality.

The key to creating a great wedding is planning, planning, planning. You need to start planning as soon as possible to make sure that everything goes smoothly on the big day. The time to start planning your wedding hairstyle is soon after the wedding gown has been selected. For most brides, this is usually for to six months before the wedding. It is important to select the gown before even thinking about the wedding hairstyle as the dress will govern how the hair should look. The shape of the wedding gown will help to guide which hairstyle will be the most complementary.

The style of the bride will be captured in the style of the dress and all other things should work together to mirror this look. For example, a fitted gown calls for an elegant smooth hairstyle, whilst flowing long gowns are better suited for softer styles. The fabric of the dress can also determine the right wedding hairstyle. If you have opted for a light fabric then complement this with wispy curls and textured hair and carry the soft look right through to your accessories and makeup. If you have gone for a more traditional heavy fabric then balance this out with structured barrel curls or a simple smooth style.

As well as choosing a wedding hairstyle that suits your face shape, your gown and your own personal style, you need to think about the actual wedding. The location and the time of day of a wedding will have a big impact on your decision of wedding hairstyle. Whether the wedding is during the daytime or an evening event, a classic updo is perfect for all wedding situations. You can try a French twist, chignon or a half-up style; all will look amazing whether it's day or night. A classic updo allows the bride's face to be the centre of attention and takes nothing away from the gown. If your wedding is a more informal affair in the day time then loose curls or a more unstructured style will be more appropriate.

Curls are very popular as a wedding hairstyle and are the ultimate in romanticism. You can incorporate curls in to your wedding hairstyle if your hair is long or short, whether you're wearing it up or down. They add texture and movement to a style and capture the essence of femininity, so why not give them a go!

If you have no idea what you want to look like on your wedding day then bridal fairs and bridal magazines are a great resource to help you through the decision-making process. Consult with your hair stylist and together look at ideas you like to see what would suit you best. You should schedule a couple of appointments before the wedding day so that your stylist can practice your chosen style and make sure you are completely happy with the outcome.

The key to getting the right wedding hairstyle is to follow your gut instinct of what looks good and what doesn't, but also to be open to suggestions by other people such as your stylist.
