Help!
I can't decide
on a hairstyle...
Ok, so
choosing a hairstyle for your wedding day isn't exactly rocket
science, so why is it soooooo difficult? You want to look like
you just stepped out of a magazine, and yet you want to look and
feel like YOU: and need a little bit of help. Well you have come
to the right place....
Ideas
Start by
taking a look at my
hair gallery
for some ideas, then start
collecting some pictures from magazines and off the internet. Be
realistic - is your hair straight / thick / long enough for the
style you like? Select several photos to show the stylist at
your trial and ask her to try each of them out. Be open to new
ideas and any advice she gives you. Have an idea of what your
bridesmaids may like, for themselves, as well. |
Upordown?
Try to choose a style that will suit your face shape - round
faces suit high "updo's" and sleek long styles while long
faces suit styles that have width and volume. Would you be
comfortable with all your hair pulled away from your face?
Consider having some hair up and some down, which is very
popular, or leaving wispy strands around your face to
soften. If you have a low-cut or off-the-shoulder dress will
you feel comfortable with a little flesh exposed? if you
want comfort opt for a polished version of the style you are
used to.
Curlyorstraight?
Once you have decided to wear you hair up or down, the
possibilities are endless. Curls are soft and romantic, as
are ,french twists, braids and variations to the bun.
Or perhaps you prefer more contemporary spikes and twists.
Try to reflect your personality in your bridal hairdo.

Tiara'sandveils
These should compliment your hairstyle but not hide it. If
you have chosen a large floor-length veil, your hairstyle
needs to be
sturdy enough to hold it's shape until you take
the veil off. Some veils look better sat at the back of the
head under a mass of
curls or a bun. As a rule, the hair shouldn't be worn longer
than the veil.

Beadsjewelsandflowers
These are always popular as they add extra sparkle and
colour and can tie in with your colour scheme and jewellery.
Pins and
hair-grips with sparkling gems in the ends have a
stunning effect, whilst small flowers can be scattered
amongst curls or wired
to a comb to flatter a french pleat.
(Try 'Claire's Accessories' and Ardenes.'). Holly can
accessorize with rinestones using
eyelash glue-easy to
remove, silk white flowers and white satin leaves- at an
extra cost of only $5.

Pre-WeddingTrial
Always have a trial well in advance of your wedding,
this aid peace of mind. I usually visit my brides at least 6
months before their wedding day. Your hair may need to grow longer for your desired
style, so you can always have another trial nearer to your
wedding day.
Weddinghairchecklist
1. Have a
trial run with your stylist as soon as your wedding date is
set. If possible, take along a photo of your dress, and any
headpiece or hair accessories.
2. Find out if you need to grow your hair length, improve
the condition with conditioning treatments, change the
colour or have some highlights.
3.Colour/highlight hair ONE week before your wedding date.
Trim 3 weeks before.
4. NEVER shampoo hair or conditioning treatments on the
wedding day. Shampoo the day before!
5. On the day of the wedding make sure the bridal party wear
button or zip-up clothes. No crew neck jumpers! This will
ensure you don not mess up your style...
6. Now just relax.....
