It’s your special day! You want to be stunning and elegant, and your choice of hairstyle is essential to your overall appearance.
The choices can be overwhelming, and for the already busy bride the selection process can be difficult.
Use these five tips from celebrity hairstylist Lea Journo to make sure your hair is as perfect as the rest of the wedding.
- Get Creative: The undone look is the modern day bride’s classic choice, but these days we are seeing braids, fish tails, knots and more being incorporated into updo’s and side styles. Get fun and creative with your hair!
- Pay Attention to the Dress: When helping the bride choose a hairstyle, one of the main concerns is the style and cut of the neckline on the dress. If the bride is wearing a classic or traditional style dress, then she should have a very classic hairstyle. If she is wearing a more modern or unique style dress then her hair can have a more fun and funky feel. The hair has to fit the dress and the personality of the bride.
- Take Care of Your Hair: Prior to her wedding day, the bride should do weekly conditioning treatments to ensure her hair is shiny and strong. If the bride colors her hair, she should have it done one week prior to the wedding.
- Don’t Procrastinate: To find the ideal wedding hairstyle, the bride and her hairstylist should always have a consultation and a few trials prior to the wedding. The bride should think about what she would be comfortable with and what will best fit the dress.
- Have Fun & Relax: Head to the spa with your girlfriends and prepare for what will be one of the best and most beautiful days of your life!
