Do Your Research to Find the Perfect Hairstyle
It would help if you did your research before picking out a hairstyle that will suit your face and your hair type. Browse through Pinterest to find different styles that will go perfectly with your attire. Make sure the length of your hair can also support it.
It’s advisable to chat with your hairstylist before finalizing your bridal hairstyle. Find out if they have any experience with the style you’ve chosen to avoid any mishaps on your wedding day.
We know how hard it is to choose the perfect hairstyle, but it is worth it
Prep Your Hair before the Big Day
You need to know your hair is in its ideal state before the big day. And if it can hold the style. People with curly or frizzy hair are advised to get their hair professionally blow-dried a day before the wedding. This way, it’s perfectly smooth and ready for styling.
The safest option is to ask your stylist if there are any measures you need to take before the wedding day to get your hair to look healthy and strong.

Do a Test Run
When you’re trying to get every little detail right about your wedding day ensemble, the last thing you want is to find out you picked the wrong hairstyle on the day of your wedding. You should do a test run if you can afford it. Get to know your stylist’s skill level before the wedding day is another excellent idea. All in all, make sure the hairstyle you’ve picked is right for your hair type.
This can also be the perfect chance for you to get comfortable with your stylist. You can tell them about any ideas you may have on how you’d like your hair styled and anything they need to avoid.
Try different hairstyles before the Big Day
Add Texture and Shine
You need to have glossy hair on your wedding day so you can look ravishing in the pictures. If you were born with naturally sleek hair, you’re in luck because you don’t need to do much to bring out the shine. Also, you can use dry shampoo to add some movement and texture to your hair.
If you have curly or frizzy hair, you may need to use products like moisturizing conditioner and shining serum to tame flyaway hair and get the glossy tresses you’ve been dreaming about.

Style with the Right Headpiece and Accessories
If you’re going to wear a veil, a tiara, or a flower crown on your wedding day, you need to make sure your hairstyle can support the weight. As it’s vital, your headpiece can stay put the whole day.
To add depth to your hairstyle, you can accessorize it with beaded clips, organic flowers, and ribbons that suit your hairstyle and complement your dress.

COLORED HAIRIf your hair is colored, schedule an appointment with your colorist for the last tone, treatment, or root touch up. It’s recommended to have it done at least 2-4 weeks before the wedding date. This will allow your freshly processed hair to soften and blend naturally as well as covering up any grays. In addition to having freshly colored hair, it will bring out the highlights of your updos and curls.BRIDAL TRIAL-RUNI always recommend wearing a white top to visualize better how the wedding day will look. Be sure to bring your veil and/or hairpiece so the stylist can ensure that it will compliment your wedding day look. If you don’t have a hairpiece and are interested, confirm with the stylist that they will have some sample pieces for you to test out at the trial run. It’s also essential to make your stylist aware of any allergies to products or brands you may have.

WEDDING DAY ADVICELet go & enjoy! While this should be a given, we often see many last-minute details left for the wedding day and so much stress while sitting in our chairs. There will inevitably be a few things on the wedding day to have to think about or manage, so not having anything on your todo list to start with is the way to go. I also always remind our brides that the morning of the wedding day will FLY by. And always have plenty of time to get ready with a moment to yourself before the real fun begins.It breaks my heart when things aren’t planned accordingly, and the bride is rushing to get dressed and out the door once hair & makeup is complete. Depending on if they have a first look or not, we like to have our brides ready 2-3 hours before the ceremony. It may feel like a ton of time when looking at the wedding timeline, but honestly, it’s worth it!
