By the time you get to your wedding day, you deserve to take a break, sit back, relax, and enjoy your day. This may seem impossible to do, since the time leading up the wedding can be stressful, to say the least. The last thing you want to be thinking about on your wedding day is your hair. The key to achieving the ideal wedding hair & makeup without stressing is planning ahead. Here are a few tips to help ensure your wedding style is as perfect as possible.
Schedule a Consultation With Hair Stylists & Makeup Artists
Come in for a consultation at least 6 months in advance of your wedding. Remember that stylists see a lot of amazing photos of other brides and are a treasure chest of information about wedding hair and styling. Bring lots of information with you, including some photos of hairstyles you like, but don’t limit it to that. Bring in swatches of wedding colours, a photo of your dress, and even accessories and photos of hair or makeup that you love. Your hair and makeup artists will need an idea of the overall look want to achieve. And, they can probably give you some helpful input if you’re having trouble deciding exactly what you want.
Have a Trail
Once you’ve decided on a look, have your stylists trial your hair style by doing your full look wedding hair & makeup. That way you can work out any concerns with it or make any changes long before the wedding day. Before and after photos will be taken so you can ensure on your day it will all run smoothly.
Mind the Weather
Take into account the season and climate in which you will marry. Many types of hair are drastically affected by climate, so be sure to discuss this with your stylist during your consultation and arrive to your wedding prepared. If you’re going to marry in a dry climate, ask the stylist what she recommends for ensuring that your hair doesn’t appear devoid of all moisture. If it’s going to be a hot, humid day, don’t expect that you’ll be able to keep naturally curly hair straight. You’re going to have to work with what you’ve got, but your stylist can help you look your very best.
