Wedding Day Hair Styles - A Top
Ten Checklist
The big day is fast approaching, and the energy of the moment
sweeps you up. But does it carry your hair along too? Use the
following checklist to ensure your wedding day hair is everything
you dream it will be:
1. Which stylist? Make bookings for consultations with more than
one stylist well in advance and decide on the one you feel most
comfortable with. You should be able to express your likes and
dislikes without feeling awkward.
2. Long hair, shoulder length, or short hair? It is important to
consult with your stylist well in advance and make a decision.
Long hair obviously gives the stylist much freedom for creativity
but a skilled stylist can also work well with medium and short
styles. Be sure to choose a length that fits with your personality
and style.
3. Have your hair compliment your wedding dress. This can be done
by both style and accessories. Smooth, straight hair and pinned up
curls are often paired up with smooth satin gowns, whereas a tulle
dress often goes well with soft curls.
4. Take into consideration your silhouette. If it's along
horizontal lines such as with a wide dress, you'll want to stick
with that look for your hair as well. The same goes for a vertical
profile.
5. You'll be spending a lot of time at the salon picking out the
perfect hairstyle, so it's best to be prepared. Be sure to wash
your hair the night before your consultation, and try to have some
pictures of styles you'd like to try out.
6. Take a picture of your wedding dress along to your stylist.
This will greatly help the process along. Also take your veil with
you, and let the stylist know what kind of wedding you are having:
formal, informal, evening, daytime. Alternatively, consult with
your stylist before deciding on your headpiece.
7. If you are interested in a new cut or color to your hair, don't
wait until right before your wedding. Make the changes during the
initial consultation with the stylist, so that you don't have any
unpleasant surprises down the road.
8. After you have decided on your style, make sure you walk around
with it. Your wedding day will be a long one and you certainly
don't want an uncomfortable hair do causing irritation!
9. Your veil length will have some influence on your choice of
hairstyle. Normally, the veil is longer than the hair. It is often
secured in back swept hair (for up dos) and it's important to make
sure the style can hold the veil in place.
10. What accessories are you going to wear? You will already
(hopefully!) have your headpiece picked out. Flowers, pins, and
beads can be used to add an extra sparkle to your hair, and you
can and should coordinate them with the rest of your jewelry.
It may sound like choosing a bridal hair style is a strenuous
activity, but the care and preparation is simply to make sure your
wedding day is the best it can be.
Following this ten point checklist will ensure your wedding day
hair style is a delight, not a disaster!
