Hair styles

In the midst of details for a wedding some details seemed to get pushed aside and aren't truly considered. Hair style is one of those. One of my biggest pet peeves at a wedding is watching the bride dance at her reception and one by one her beautiful updo starts coming down, and by the end of the night it looks like an updo with random pieces frizzy and dangling. I always carry bobby pins, hairspray, and other tools for making sure my brides' hair are beautiful all evening.

Don't let your hairstyle be a quick impulse decision. Sometimes the hair style you love won't hold up in the atmosphere of your wedding.

For a beach wedding especially during the summer months, alot of brides opt for a lose curl down hairstyle.Well on the beach you have heat and humidity. With heat and hunidity you will probably also be sweating, plus there is usually a wind off the ocean. So if you go with a long lose curl all down hairstyle be prepared for the hunidity to frizz your hair, for your neck to be sweaty due to the heat built up under your hair, and for your hair to be blown and stick to your sweating face. If you want a casual beach look consider a lose unstructured pin-up look. You could have it pinned to the side and add a flower.





Consider your hairstyle for the ceremony and reception. Brides still choose a veil for the ceremony, and brides think about what their hair will look like with a veil, but what will it look like if you are to take the veil off for the reception. Look at adding a great hairpiece to your do for the reception. You still want to look like a bride at your reception and not lose your look.


Always do a trial for your wedding day with a professional. You do not want to chance your hair looking bad for your big day. Schedule a consultation and trial run for your hair, most salons will work out a pacakge deal for you to do a trial and then again for your wedding day. Voice your opinion if you truly do not like what is done. Although a friend is great at hair, leave your wedding day to a professional. Have your friend be your hair stylist after you leave the profesional. They can do touch-ups be like a hair monitor during your photos.

In the end choose a hairstyle you love and are comfortable with!
