17 Jun 10 WEDDING HAIRSTYLE TIPS EVERY BRIDE MUST KNOW
MAKE YOUR WEDDING HAIRSTYLE LOOK AMAZING
The crowning glory of your wedding day look isn’t a tiara or the veil…it’s your hairstyle!
Is your hair long enough for it to be styled and last the whole day?
Do you have enough hair to make the hairstyle look as impressive as the photo you’ve fallen in love with? Does it even look good together with your hair texture and face shape?
To ensure that you get the best results for your wedding hairstyle, all you have to do is follow a couple of simple steps.
1. Hair & Dress
Before you do anything hair-wise, you ought to pick your dress. A bride’s hair should complement her dress, not compete with it. Your veil is different. If you choose to wear one, which not everyone does, you’ll choose a veil according to the hairstyle, or vice-versa.
Take into account the style and the neckline of your beautiful wedding gown to understand if your wedding hairstyle will suit it. For every wedding dress style, certain hairstyles work better than others – V-neckline dresses require neat hairstyles such as a clean bun or chignon, others, like wedding gowns with the sweetheart neckline, look great with side-swept hair.

2. Start With A Picture
Bringing or sending your hairdresser many pictures and inspiration of the style that you want is the easiest way to make sure that you get exactly the style that you want. Provide your hairdresser or your wedding planner everything there is to know about your hair: length, texture, thickness, and face shape. This may help your hairstylist get a far better understanding of who you are, and your vision.
These details can help to get prepared your hairdresser’s team perfectly for the trial day when not only will you get a sneak peek of the wedding magic, you’ll get to see the quality of the stylist before the big day to prevent any disappointments.
3. Have a Wedding Consultation
Finding the right stylist to do your hair might appear like a Herculean task, but it is not. Having your hair styled for a destination wedding in Sicily is a specialty that’s different from haircutting or coloring.
Once you’ve decided on a hairstyle that you like, it’s so important to do a trial run with your hairstylist and your wedding planner.
Trial runs are a run-through of your wedding day hair. Most stylists charge a fee for a trial run, but the price is worthwhile for the peace of mind and knowledge you’ve got locked down that perfect hairstyle.
Talk to your stylist about what hairstyles your hair type and texture can pull off and what you may need to do (extensions, cut, dye, etc.) to achieve the hairstyle you want.
Don’t forget to bring in a photo of your dress so your stylist can ensure your hair fits with the dress style.
4. Picking the proper Hairstyle
You’ll want to think about your hair texture and length also because if you would like an updo style, you are going to need long-ish hair to make it, but there are many amazing hairstyles also for short hair brides, so don’t let that freak you out.
Finally, remember all the angles. It’s not just your front section on display—the back and sides of your style will need to be perfect. The rear of your head, after all, is what most of the guests at your ceremony will see. So pay attention!
Ask to ascertain the rear of your head at different intervals to correct anything you don’t like about the hairstyle before it’s too late!
5. Match the Theme
Consider your wedding theme and adjust your hairstyle according to it. An elegant wedding requires elegant hairstyles —like an elaborate up-do accented with hair jewelry. A more casual look requires a less formal but equally impressive hairstyle, as chic, glossy curls.
6. Plan Around Your Accessories
If you’re planning on wearing accessories in your hair, make sure to inform your hairstylist during the trial.
They will be able to recommend a clip or another attachment that will best fit your hairstyle and hair type.
Also, ensure your chosen hairstyle will carry the weight of your headpiece. Most headpieces are lightweight however elaborate bridal hairpieces or extra long veils will get to be supported.
7. Incorporate Your Wedding Flowers
I love when brides go for wedding hairstyles with flowers.
From oversized flower crowns to delicate baby’s breath, there are dozens of various ways to wear flowers in your hair. Floral crowns are obviously (still) a fave, but there is an assortment of ways to wear flowers. Placing flowers in your hair may be a popular and classic wedding hairstyle tip.
You can take a couple of your favorite flowers or just one big bud and incorporate them into a braid, creating a modern and subtle hairstyle.
8. Plan Ahead
The hair unmistakably is the crowning glory of any bride, after all a perfect hairstyle is what will bring your whole wedding look together.
All the brides, achieving your desired hair, you must start taking care of those locks much ahead of time.
If you’ve got your hair colored, permed, or treated, have it done a minimum of one month before your wedding date. The extra time will soften your style a bit, so it will be more natural. Also, should disaster strike, you will have time to repair it.

9. Speak freely
During your consultation, your hairdresser will get information about your unique desires and styles. They’ll recommend you about what works best for your style and will work with you to accentuate your existing features.
If your stylist has some good suggestions, it’s worth taking them into consideration. But, talk freely with your stylist about your concerns, don’t be afraid to inform them if you don’t like what they’ve suggested or the way your hair is made. After all, this is your day and your hairstyle should look exactly how you would like it to. Remember, among other things Sicilians are very friendly people and they like to be helpful.
10. Ensure it’s Weather Proof
You’ve picked out your dream dress, gorgeous table settings, and even the perfect first dance song. But there will be one thing you can’t control: the weather.
Having a wedding in Sicily sounds amazing, but summer days mean sweating and stickiness from the humidity, wintertime, on the other hand, they are mild and rainy. And there’s nothing worse than having your hair styled into your perfect look only to have it fall flat due to the weather.
Avoid problems by selecting a style suitable for the location and season that your wedding takes place in. If you’re getting married on a hot, humid day, for instance, wearing your hair up might be a better choice if you want to keep any hair out of your face and from sticking to your neck. You also won’t need to worry about frizz.
Most of all, follow your intuition. You know how your hair behaves with the weather, so if you don’t think you can pull off free, cascading locks then opt for a more structured up-do.

It’s all up to you but don’t go over the top.
Are you a casual person getting married barefoot on the beach? Consider keeping your hair down with loose waves.
Are you spending €1.000 per guest to get married in a 5-star hotel? A formal up-do may be the best.
Is this a Sicilian-style wedding? Cascading curls would be the way!
When looking for hair, makeup, and clothing inspiration, this is by far the most important thing: be yourself.
Now, if there’s one tip to take away from this article, it’s this one: hiring a professional wedding service provider is crucial.
You will spend most of the day in front of the camera and interact with guests. The styling created by professional hairdressers will last through the wedding day. When you hire a wedding professional, you not only pay for their service, but you can also benefit from their experience. The additional services and suggestions they provide are very valuable.
Your wedding is one of the most important days in your life, so why plan it yourself?
For your wedding, you want to make sure to have the best of everything, florists, photographers, DJs, or caterers, but hiring also a wedding planner can make the whole process easy, organized, stress-free, and enjoyable.
