Choosing the Perfect Wedding Hairstyle


Every woman deserves to look her best during her wedding day. To help all the brides out there for that special day, here are some tips on how to choose the perfect hairstyle for the wedding.

Wedding Hairstyle Tip # 1: Decide if it's a daytime or evening wedding.

There are hairstyles that go specifically for daytime and evening activities. Brides should decide as soon as possible if they prefer a day or evening wedding. A day ceremony is usually considered as an informal affair so brides can wear their hair down and showcase some loose curls. Curls are perfect for that whole romantic look and are best whether the hair is short with all-over curls or long with cascading curls. However, rules of wedding hairstyles change when it comes to a night wedding. Thus, it is best to consult with a hairstylist about this.  But to be safe, one can opt to have an up do. Up dos are wedding hairstyles that are perfect for all wedding situations. They are also best known for being able to show a bride’s radiant face as these hairstyles sweep hair off the face.

Wedding Hairstyle Tip # 2: Choose your wedding gown first before deciding on your hairstyle.

Your wedding hairstyle should complement your wedding gown. Thus, professional hairstylists suggest that the perfect time to plan any wedding hairstyle is after you have selected your gown. Certain shapes and fit of wedding gowns go with certain hairstyles. For instance, fitted gowns call for elegant and smooth hairstyles, whereas flowing long gowns are better suited for softer ones. Fabrics are also helpful in determining the right wedding hairstyle. Light fabrics will complement wispy curls and textured hair, while heavy fabrics demand structured barrel curls or smooth hair. Notice how a chiffon wedding dress looks very beautiful when the bride wears a loose pouf in the back?

Wedding Hairstyle Tip # 3: Visit bridal fairs.

Aside from a trusted hairstylist from her hair salon, there are a lot of other rich resources that brides can utilize to help her in her decision making process. Bridal magazines are rich sources of information. Soon to be wives can also go to bridal fairs and other wedding expos. Not only can they see various wedding hairstyles, they can also get to talk to various wedding specialists regarding several wedding elements such as gowns, flowers, entourage, reception, etc. But of course, nothing beats the advice that a personal hairstylist can give. Just make sure that the hairstylist is a professional.

With these tips, you are now ready to be the best bride for your groom!

Budget-Friendly Bridal Hairstyles


To be perfect on her wedding day, a bride needs to have the perfect dress, perfect make-up, and perfect hairstyle. These three aspects should jive and complement each other to accentuate the bride’s beauty. Because it is her day, the bride should be able to choose amongst a variety of bridal hairstyles that will go well with her wedding dress. These two will be the ultimate basis of her make-up.

Now, bridal hairstyles depend on many factors. The most common considerations when it comes to choosing bridal hairstyles are the bride’s hair type, budget, time, and of course the wedding dress. Some hairstyles require accessories, while some are simple yet stylish. But of course, brides should go for hairstyles that are absolutely elegant yet very practical. Quite a number of brides do not mind splurging on a hairstylist. After all, a wedding is a special day. However, keep in mind that as soon to be wives and mothers, working in a fixed budget is very important. So while we do not mind spending some time and money on a hairstylist, we surely want to work within the budget.

There are wedding styles that work best for short and long hairstyles. Short hairstyles normally require a wedding style that includes setting and blow drying. A fresh hip haircut with a change in hair color would do for those who want to keep it short. Some short haired brides also choose the option of having hair extensions. Technically, however, that will fall under long hairstyles.

Three ways work best for long hairstyles: wear them stand out straight, sport them in big romantic curls, or tie them in various up-do’s. For the first option, it is highly recommended to go for keratin treatments. For the second one, brides can either opt to have their hairstylist do some perming or just leave it to their trusty curling iron. As for up-do’s, it is a must that brides consult with their hairstylist as this requires precision and skill.

For either long or short bridal hairstyles, it is inevitable to talk about hair accessories. Hair accessories are integral parts of bridal hairstyles. They add glamour and elegance to any hairstyle. Most of the time, hair accessories come with the wedding dress. These pieces are created by the dress designer in sync with the theme of the dress. However, if this is not the case, the bride can just simply get a jewelry piece and make it part of her ensemble for the day.

These are but some of the bridal hairstyles that brides can explore as they go about their wedding preparations. Whether with a hairstylist or alone, it is important that hairstyles are “rehearsed.” Ample time should be allotted so that bridal hairstyles can be tried a couple of times before the big day comes up. This makes it possible to select that one hairstyle that perfectly suits the bride’s face and wedding dress. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect. And brides surely want to be perfect on that special day.
