Wedding Day Hair and Beauty Tips
The key to having perfect wedding day hair is to find a style
that reflects who you are. You want your hairstyle to enhance
your look, and not take away from it. In order to do this, you
must find a style that complements your dress, veil, and headpiece,
as well as your face.
Although you may have a favorite stylist who works independently,
you may want to consider a larger salon for your wedding day so
your entire party can be accommodated at the same time. If you're
going to remove your veil or headpiece after the wedding ceremony,
make sure your hairstylist takes this into consideration when
she's doing your hair---you don't want your style to become messed
up when you make the transition.
Just like with your makeup, you will want to have at least one
hair trial before your wedding day whether you are going to a
stylist or doing it yourself. Testing out your hairstyle before
the big day will help ensure you get the look you want. Your stylist
will be able to tell you what types of styles will work best on
your hair, considering both the length and texture of your hair,
and the shape of your face. You just want to keep in mind that
your hair is meant to complement your dress and not cover elements
that make it unique.
You will also want to take your headpiece and veil with you so
your stylist can work these accessories into the overall look
of your hair. When you go for your trial, discuss with your stylist
what looks will work best not only for your hair length and texture,
but also for the environment of your wedding. Weather elements,
such as humidity, rain, and wind will all affect the way your
hair will look on your wedding day.
Face
Having a flawless face on your wedding day begins months before
you say "I do." Taking care of your skin is the easiest way to
guarantee your face will be radiant at your wedding.
Facials are a great way to put your freshest face forward on
your wedding day. The soothing nature of these deep cleansings
will not only help the look of your skin, but will also help you
relax during the stressful task of planning a wedding. You'll
want to discuss your specific skin type with you esthetician as
she will know what is best for your face.
Probably the hardest, but most essential, part of good skin care
is getting plenty of rest. This will prove to be tough, especially
in the few days leading up to the wedding since you will have
many last minute details to pull together. Try to get as much
done as early as you can so that you can focus on keeping yourself
well rested and relaxed. Make sure you have at least the day before
the wedding to get some rest in order to ensure you show your
freshest face on your big day.
Nails
As a final touch, it's nice to have a
professional manicure and/or pedicure the day before your wedding
so they're not messed up in your rush to get to the next step
of the wedding.
Don't forget to bring the appropriate color nail polish with
you for your appointment. Consider having him/her give your mother,
your fiancée's mother and your bridesmaids a manicure in
the same color for a consistent look.
