Organising a wedding means you have a lot to think about and organise. Regarding wedding hair, the team from Making Faces Makeup would love to support you with helpful information for making the right hairstyle choices on your special day. Below are some helpful hints to consider to maximise your wedding hairstyle results on your day.
What style have you chosen for your day?
This can be a range of styles from soft Hollywood waves to tight curls, half up & half down, a textured bohemian up style or a smooth glam up style. The latest bridal hairstyles can be an excellent source of inspiration.
Not only do you need to look for photos online to help pick which style will suit you, but look even deeper into the style and look at whether the wedding hairdown style you have chosen is the same colour as your own hair. If your colour is similar, that’s great because you know the finished result will be as close as possible to the image. If your colour is nowhere near the same, remember that the finished result will not look as close to the image.
The reason why we need to have a close look at the colour…
Colour creates different illusions.
Blonde hair or blonde highlights create texture and volume to hair. This is why we often find most photos online with blonde hair because the wedding hairstyles are easier to form and hold well due to the hair’s cuticle being slightly more porous than hair that is coloured, browns, reds, coppers, & violets.
Darker hair that is a solid colour gives hair the appearance of gloss and shine with a sleeker and smoother finish. This is why we often see images of Hollywood waves on solid colours so that the smooth, sleek finish is achievable.
Now it’s time to consider whether you want volume and texture in your wedding hair-down look or a smooth, sleek finish.
Leading up to your day
If you know your hair is dry, think about getting a light trim on your ends to remove any wispy dry ends and use treatment weekly to enhance the shine of your wedding hair.
