Wedding Hairstyles: New Looks for the New Bride
You’ve found the right groom and the beautiful dress. The party is planned. Now you just have to decide how you’re going to wear your hair on one of the most important days of your life. Certainly, you want something that looks great now but you also want to look great when you’re revisiting the wedding album years later.
Choosing a hairstyle can be daunting and the first step is to figure out “what kind of bride you are”.
First there’s “classic” bride. You love timeless styles and don’t follow too many of the latest trends. You’re elegant, ladylike, and you need a hairstyle to match. Good choices for you would be a chignon (soft, wispy bun) or a simple updo.
You could be “glamorous bride”. A jet setter that follows most of the trends, you’re looking for a dramatic entrance and elaborate style. A high updo with a pompadour front or strong accessories could be perfect for you.
“Modern” bride is chic, somewhat trendy but with her own style. She’s a minimalist and might just want to wear her hair down for the big day. This modern kind of girl could wear a sultry bob haircut on her wedding day as easily as a delicate updo.
“Bohemian” bride is all about the free spirit. Long, flowing locks with a long, flowing dress, this girl wants to keep her look as close to nature as possible. So, skip the fancy updos and straightening irons and go with a soft curl or wave.
If you’re more the type of woman who’s had dreams of a princess wedding, you’d be “romantic” bride. Soft, feminine curls. A dainty dress. Beautiful flowers in your hair. You could probably love a half-updo that’ll let your hair loose and flowy, but still look fancy enough for the princess you are.
Look for an alternative choice to the overdone updo? A bob haircut would work well for brides who want to look chic but different from the norm. The cut is easy to style (a blow-dryer and round brush will work wonders) and will hold up through the night while still looking soft and sexy. The best part? You won’t be picking bobby pins out of your hair for the whole night! The bob haircut, known for its blunt edges and defined shape looks classy, chic, and is a timeless hairstyle choice that will look great in pictures for years to come.
