| HELP!
i can't decide on a hairstyle...!
ok, so choosing a hairstyle for your wedding day isn't exactly rocket
science, so why is it soooooo difficult?! you want to look like
you just stepped out of Hello magazine, but need a little
bit of help. well you may have come to the right place....
get
some ideas
start by getting some ideas from our hair
ideas gallery then start collecting pictures from magazines
and off the internet. be realistic - is your hair straight / thick
/ long enough for the style you like? select several photos to show
the stylist at your trial and ask her to try each of them out. be
open to new ideas and any advice she gives you. |
up
or down? choose a style that will suit your face shape -
round faces suit high "updo's" and sleek long styles while
long faces suit styles that have width and volume. heart and oval
faces suit just about anything - lucky you!
| to
determine your face shape, stand in front of a mirror with
a lip liner in hand. draw around the shape of your face onto
the mirror. your face may be a combination of shapes - i.e..
long and heart, or triangle and round, just to make things
more confusing.... |
would you be comfortable with all your hair pulled away from your
face? consider having some hair up and some down, or leaving wispy
bits around your face to soften. if you have a low-cut or off-the-shoulder
dress will you feel comfortable with a little flesh exposed?
curly
or straight?
once you have decided to wear you hair up or down, the possibilities
are endless. curls are soft and romantic, pleats are sophisticated
& classical, braids are funky.... or perhaps you prefer more
contemporary spikes and twists. try to reflect your personality
in your bridal hairdo, whilst feeling comfortable with the style. |

and veils
these should compliment your hairstyle but not hide it. if you
have chosen a large floor-length veil, your hairstyle needs to be
sturdy enough to hold it's shape until you take the veil off.
some veils look better sat at the back of the head under a mass
of curls or a bun. if you have a french pleat (or chignon)
it is easier to pin the veil in front. as a rule, the hair shouldn't
be worn longer than the veil.
tiara's come in a variety of styles, make sure the size complements
your hair-do, it is always wise to have trial-run with your hairdresser.
beads,
jewels and flowers
these are always popular as they add extra sparkle and colour
and can tie in with your colour scheme and jewellery. pins and hair-grips
with sparkling gems in the ends have a stunning effect, whilst small
flowers can be scattered amongst curls or wired to a comb to flatter
a french pleat. |
pre-wedding
trial
always have a trial well in advance of your wedding. your hair may
need to grow longer for your desired style, so you can always have
another trial nearer to your wedding day.
wedding hair checklist
1. have a trial run with your stylist as soon as your wedding date
is set. if possible, take along a photo of your dress, and any headpiece
or hair accessories.
2. find out if you need to grow your hair length, improve the condition
with conditioning treatments, change the colour or have some highlights.
3. unless you are having a blow-dry, never shampoo or condition
your hair on the day. instead, wash it the night before running
some mousse through before drying. if you are wearing your hair
up, secure it in a high pony tail at bedtime.
4. on the day of the wedding make sure the bridal party wear button
or zip-up clothes. no crew neck tops! this will ensure you don't
mess up your style...
