Wedding season is just around the corner and brides-to-be all around are preparing for the big “I Do”. One thing on the wedding-to-do list is finding the right wedding hairstyle and make-up application. Your wedding day should be stress free so, here are few tips to help better you prepare for the big day.
Rule #1
ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS do a wedding hair and make-up trial. This really is not a service you want to skip out on. Especially if you decide to try a hairstyle that you aren’t used to. The last thing you want is, come wedding day, you look in the mirror and here comes BRIDEZILLA!!! Trust me on this, I have done many weddings and it’s just for your own peace of mind. You may really like one hairstyle but it may not work with your length or texture. It’s the same as not trying out the wedding cake. Would you really order your wedding cake without tasting it first? My point exactly. Ask your hairdresser for a trial, bring some references of hair and makeup inspiration and try a few different looks until you get the one that works for you.
Rule #2
If you are getting married in Bali, you will have to take into consideration of the humid weather. If you know your hair doesn’t hold curl very well you may want to opt for a up-do wedding hairstyle instead. Your hair may look great the first two hours down and curly but by wedding time it will be straight frizzy and you won’t be happy. Your hairstylist should also be aware of this.
Rule #3
If you’re not used to heavy make-up, stick to something more natural. You don’t want to walk down the aisle looking like a drag queen. This again is why we highly recommend a wedding make-up trial. If your wedding is during the day and outdoors go for light eyes and a bit more colour on the lips. If you are having an evening wedding, dark eyes are appropriate but stick to a nude and light lip.
Rule #4
It ‘s not a bad idea to have your wedding beauty team on call for touch-ups. You want to look flawless in photos so if its in your budget, book it in. You may get teary eyed and even the best make-up may smudge so, its a good idea that your make-up artist is on standby for a quick beauty fix.
Rule #5
Don’t be afraid to add some flair to your hairstyle. Either flowers or headpiece. There are many wedding hair accessories out there. My favourite are Wedding Hair Pieces by Teeki by Love Marie Bridal I also love a classic wedding veil. Just don’t over do it. Remember less is more when it comes to accenting. Bring your wedding accessories along with you to your trial to you make sure they go well with your wedding hairstyle.
Rule #6
Do get your hair coloured before hand. Nothing worse than having grey or dark roots with your beautiful finished look. Schedule your colour appointment a week before the wedding day.
Rule #7
Do wash your hair the day before your wedding day but DON”T over condition it. There is a misconception of having dirty hair for an up-do. Hair needs to be clean plain and simple. If your hair doesn’t hold curl your hairstylist will use products to help add some texture. Ans Over-conditioning may make the hair too soft and hairpins may not hold as well.
AND FINALLY Rule #8
Yes you are the queen for the day just don’t let it turn you into a nasty witch. Nobody likes a bridezilla!!! Remember you are beautiful, you have chosen the best wedding hair and make-up Team and the most important thing is that you marrying your prince charming. Now go have your fairytale wedding!
