Long, medium or short, what is a bride to do?

Long, medium or short, what is a bride to do?

Long Hair

Do you wear your long hair pulled back most of the time? An updo would be just the style for you! Incorporate a detail from your gown into your hair design. Details such as braiding or twisting of fabric can be duplicated into the hairstyle. Look to the texture of the dress. A soft wispy hairstyle complements a soft flowing gown. A smooth gown of reflective fabric such as silk or satin is complemented by a smooth, shiny hairstyle of knots or rolls.

Do you wear your long hair down most of the time? Then try wearing some of it up away from your face, leaving the rest to cascade around your shoulders. Many grooms request their beloved keep their hair down. Let this be the first of many compromises! Allow a few tendrils to escape and frame your face, they can be curled or left natural. Having it all down is just too casual for the big day.


Natural curls? Enhance them and work with them; keep your look soft.
Straight hair? Don't expect a set to last all day, wear it up. If the curls are pinned in place there will be less to worry about.


Medium Hair

ust around the shoulders is considered medium length hair. If you don't have too many layers your options are similar to that of the longhair styles. Medium length can be curled and worn with a sparkly headband or tiara to dress it up. Or simply tuck some hair behind your ears and use one of the very popular decorative hair clips to hold it back. My hair kits show great styling tips for getting medium hair into an updo!


Is your medium hair layered? If your medium hair has some length, the back can go up for an elegant look. Hot rollers are a must for giving the necessary body needed for this look. Give yourself time to experiment.


Think faux! There are great fake hair add on items out there. Put one on your ponytail and go!


Short Hair

Don't despair there is a lot that can be done! Keep the front of your hair looking like you. Dust off your curling iron and give your hair some fullness in the crown area and back. Today's "curls" are for creating texture. Many hair products on the market are designed for texturizing the hair, not necessarily for holding it in place.


Don't touch the curls while they are warm! Once the hair is cooled run your fingers through with some hair wax. Pinch and place the "texture" where you want it! Don't brush your hair or it will look too pouf-y, frizzy, and (Horror!) dated!! Top your style with a tiara or a few hair clips and you are ready to go!


Really short hair? For a daytime wedding fresh flowers look great in short hair. For an evening wedding slick it back with gel or wax showcasing dramatic earrings and fabulous make-up!

Wedding Hairstyling Tips: Choosing the Updo

Wedding Hairstyling Tips: Choosing the Updo

Designing wedding updos takes a great deal of planning. An updo is essentially a hairstyle that involves pinning the hair up so that is off the neck. There are many different styles of updos available and the bride may find choosing the perfect one to be a challenging task. The bride has a lot of factors to consider when choosing a hairstyle. This article will outline some of the factors to consider when deciding on wedding updos.

The shape of the face is one of the most important factors to consider when choosing wedding updos. This is important because certain styles of updos are more appealing

on faces of a particular shape while other styles may create an unappealing look. For example some hairstyles may make a round face appear even rounder while other hairstyles may create a slenderizing illusion.

The veil or headpiece which will be worn should also be considered when choosing wedding updos. While the shape of the face is very important, the headpiece is equally important because it will influence the types of styles which can be used. Once the headpiece is chosen, the bride to be can start choosing a hairstyle.

The process of choosing wedding updos usually begins with paging through wedding magazines or scrolling through websites. Most soon to be brides get their inspiration from magazines and websites which focus on weddings. Seeing models with hairstyles you like can give you the general idea of what type of hairstyle you will choose.

When looking through these magazines and websites it is important to consider the shaper of the face of the models in the hairstyles you like. If they have face shapes which are similar to your own, these styles will likely be flattering. However, if the models have faces which are shaped drastically different from your own, you may find the style to be unflattering.

The next step in the process of choosing wedding updos is to visit a salon to experiment with different styles. If you already have a hairstylist you trust or have recommendations from other friends you can choose this stylist to complete your wedding day look. Otherwise you might need to visit a few salons to see pictures of their previous work before deciding on a stylist. Once you have chosen a stylist you can do a trial run to see how the hairstyle looks with the headpiece.

Preferably the trial run to experiment with different wedding updos should take place close to the date of the wedding. This will ensure the hair is relatively similar to how it will be on the wedding day. You may experiment with different hairstyles a few months in advance only to find that the weather or other factors have changed to texture of your hair making the style that was so appealing a few months ago to not be as attractive. The trial run is very important because it is when the bride to be will really see how the updo will look on her and with her headpiece.

New Updo Hairstyles for You

New Updo Hairstyles for You

First, shampooing long hair is best done standing up, preferably in the shower. This helps reduce matting and tangling. You should choose a shampoo that fits your hair's needs. For instance, chemically treated or damaged hair should be treated with a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. Only apply shampoo to the scalp and then rub in circular motions to clean the scalp thoroughly. When you rinse, work the shampoo through the ends of your hair and this will also help with less tangles. Your goal is to clean your scalp, so it is not necessary to rub shampoo into the ends of your hair. Use several

towels to blot your hair dry. Never rub wet hair because this is a major cause of matting and tangling.

Second, combing and brushing long hair can be difficult if you do not use the proper tools and technique. To make combing wet hair easier, start with a leave-in conditioner. Using a large tooth bone comb, start at the ends and work up a little, about an inch at a time, getting the tangles out. If you are working with dry hair, a large paddle brush works best. Again always start at the bottom and slowly work up to the scalp. When blow drying long hair, use your fingers to comb through the hair from scalp to ends while drying.

Third, you need a few hair tools on hand to make the perfect hairdo. They include a large comb, square paddle brush, bobby pins, hairpins, and elastic bands. The best elastic bands to use are covered with some type of material. You might not have known there is a difference in bobby pins and hairpins, but using them correctly will help your hairstyle. Bobby pins touch in the middle and are designed to hold the weight of your hair. Hairpins are made to hold hair in place that has already been secured with bobby pins. You can make curls and then spread them and hold them in place with hairpins.

There are lots of great hairstyles you can choose once you have mastered the basics and have your hair clean and ready. Braids and updos are perfect hairstyles for proms, senior pictures, bridal pictures, weddings, and formal functions. Many hairstyle professionals can style your clean dry hair in an updo in about 15 minutes. Having long hair doesn't have to mean always wearing a ponytail. Talk with your hairstyle professional about some of the many hairdos that would work for you.
