Here are a few factors that should go into your decision about your hair:
- The neckline of your dress (If wearing a high neck style - hair should be swept up; with a lower cut some hair should be left down if not all.)
- Your jewelry (jewelry should be complementary and not over powering - YOU are the star - not the jewelry)
- Location of wedding (outdoor weddings should usually be worn up - to avoid wind and sweating)
- The natural ability of your hair to hold a style (straight, fine hair is usually best worn up or partially up with hair added in as it falls flat too easily)
- Your comfort level
- Headpieces, veils, barrettes, tiaras, flowers (using pieces that contrast with your hair color can give a more modern bold look while using ones that are closer to your haircolor can give more of a feminine, traditional look and don't forget to bring them with you to your trial run appointment(s))
- Haircolor (i do not recommend changing your hair color drastically or trying a new trend before your wedding - imagine looking at your wedding photos 10 years from now)
These are just a few of the things you should consider when making your "bridal hair" decision. Also, don't stress about the rest of the bridal party's hair - this day is about YOU! Overall, you should feel comfortable and beautiful on your big day. Using these tips will make your day even more perfect than you've always imagined!
