Hey HER bride! Your wedding is such a special day for you and your entourage, and we know every detail counts. So, the HER Bride team from Salon HER will make sure that your hair makes you feel gorgeous and confident. Here are some expert tips and ideas to ensure your hair is perfectly styled and beautiful.
Trial Runs Save the Day
Why Book a Trial?
A trial run allows you to see how your hairstyle looks and feels, so there are no surprises on the day. It’s also an excellent opportunity to make sure your hair and makeup work together.
Tips for a Successful Trial
Bring inspirational photos and discuss your vision with your HER Bride hairstylist. Communication is key! Work with your HER Bride hairstylist and try different hairstyles to find the perfect one for you. Remember, this is your time to play and refine your ideas, so take full advantage of it.
Weather
Weather-Proof Hairstyles
Weather is unpredictable, but your hairstyle doesn’t have to be. When choosing your wedding hairstyle, think about the weather. Use weather-proof products to keep your style in place all day. Anti-humidity sprays, strong-hold hairsprays, and smoothing serums are lifesavers. Your HER Bride hairstylist can recommend the best products to keep your hair looking perfect from the ceremony to the reception.
Hair Care for Long-Lasting Hairstyles
Pre-Wedding Hair Care
Healthy hair is the base of any great hairstyle. In the months leading up to your wedding, focus on maintaining your hair’s health. Regular haircuts and minimal heat styling will make a big difference. Nourish your hair with professional hair products, and add a hair treatment to your hair ritual for extra moisture and shine.
Day-of Hair Care
These simple tips will keep your hair looking fresh and fabulous on your wedding day. Avoid touching your hair to minimise frizz and flyaways. If you have an upstyle, bring a small emergency kit with bobby pins and hairspray for quick fixes.
Your Hairstyle and Your Wedding Dress
Consider Your Dress Neckline
Your dress neckline is key to deciding your hairstyle; strapless dresses, loose waves, and half-up and half-down hairstyles show off your shoulders. Higher necklines work well with upstyles that draw attention to the dress details. You want to create a balance between your dress and hairstyle. Trust your HER Bride stylist to help you select the best option to compliment your unique features, wedding style and personality.
Match Your Hairstyle to your Wedding Dress Silhouette
Different dress silhouettes compliment different hairstyles. A-line dresses can be paired with many hairstyles, from Long Layers to Upstyles while mermaid and curve-hugging dresses ooze romance with soft feminine hairstyles. Work with your HER Bride hairstylist to find a style that suits your dress and personal preferences.
Hairstyles for Different Wedding Themes
Classic Elegance
For a timeless look, go for classic and sleek. These hairstyles are elegant and perfect for traditional weddings. You can always add some glamour with hairpins or a veil.
Modern Glam
For the modern bride, polished waves and curls or a sophisticated ponytail are the way to go. These hairstyles are sleek and chic and perfect for modern weddings. You can add a hairpiece or bold accessories to complete the look.
Working with Your Hairstylist
Finding Your Look
Your HER Bride hairstylist is your partner in finding your perfect wedding hairstyle. Don’t be afraid to share your ideas and preferences. Your HER Bride hair stylist will listen to your vision and give you expert advice.
Face Shape Considerations
Different face shapes suit different hairstyles. Choose a hairstyle that adds height and length for round faces, like high buns or voluminous curls. Oval faces can pull off many hair styles, from sleek ponytails to loose waves. Square faces work well with hairstyles that soften the angles, like side-swept curls. Heart-shaped faces look great with hair styles that balance the forehead and jawline, like half-up and half-down hairstyles.
Hair Texture Tips
Hair texture will play a role in deciding on the best hairstyle. Fine hair can use volumizing hair products and hairstyles that add body-like tousled waves. Thick hair can be tamed with smoothing serums and sleek updos. Curly hair looks great when enhanced with defined curls or a romantic updo. Straight hair can be transformed with curls, waves, or intricate braids for added texture.
