All
brides would like to look their best on their wedding day. This is
precisely the reason why they go on diets, visit the spa, have hair
treatments and do other things prior to the wedding to make them look
their most radiant on their big day. One of the biggest factors to
looking your best as a bride is selecting the perfect wedding dress and
pairing it with a suitable hairstyle.
In most cases, brides say
that they intuitively know when they've found the perfect wedding dress.
The cut of the dress should first clue you in as to which bridal
hairstyle would suit your best. If you are wearing a bridal gown with a
strapless bodice, you will show off its cut by wearing an elegant updo.
However, you can still wear your hair down as long as it is styled
elegantly. For those who are wearing gowns with short or long sleeves or
a particular neckline, there are also hairstyles for brides which can
be worn to showcase the cut of the dress.
Bridal Hairstyle Ideas for Long Hair
Aside
from the cut of the dress, another factor that you need to take into
consideration when deciding which hairstyle to wear is the length of
your locks. If you have short hair, you can have it styled in a
contemporary manner as it highlights the bridal jewelry or accessories
which you are planning to wear.
If you have long hair, then there
are plenty of romantic hairstyles that will suit you. You can basically
wear them in a stick-straight style or with romantic curls, as well as
in sleek updos or loose, flowing hairstyles.
Stick-Straight or Romantic Curls?
First,
let's compare stick-straight hairstyles with romantic curls. If you
have always worn your hair in its curly, natural state and you would
like to look different on your wedding day, you can have your long hair
straightened out temporarily. By taming your curls, the frame of your
face and the elegant cut of your dress will be highlighted.
Meanwhile,
romantic curls have always been a favorite hairstyle option for both
brides and their bridesmaids. Whether you are planning to hold the
wedding reception in a formal evening affair or as a charming daytime
event, you can use a romantic, curly hairstyle which perfectly suits the
occasion. When making a selection between the two, just make sure to
consider the natural acconciature texture of your hair and talk with your stylist
about whether a particular hairstyle would work for your locks.
Sleek Updos or Loose Hairstyles?
Next,
how do you take your pick from sleek updos or loose hairstyles? Again,
the factors that you need to consider include the time of the day that
the wedding will be held; the season of the year; the theme of your
wedding; the cut of your dress; and the length of your hair. The good
news is that if you always wear your hair long, you can easily transform
your locks into a sleek updo or a loose, flowing hairstyle.
A
final tip to keep in mind is that you should always have a practice
session with your stylist days prior to the wedding. By doing so, you
can make certain adjustments with your hairstyle in case your initial
choice does not look as good as you imagined it would when paired with
your gown and bridal accessories.
