Finding the right bridal hairstyle is almost as important as choosing the perfect wedding dress. The bridal 'do that's best for you will be one that complements your dress, face, hair and is comfortable for you to wear. Half up and half down hairstyles are ideal as they are a natural compromise between full updos and leaving your hair down. Best of all, these hairstyles complement any texture of hair and face shape.
For instance you can opt for half up wedding hairstyle for the first part of your wedding – the ceremony and another style, made all up hairstyle, for the second part of the wedding celebration – the reception party. You can consider these two options especially that you have time between these both parts of the celebration and taking into account the fact that during the reception there will be a lot of dancing and with an all up hairstyle you will be more comfortable on the dancing floor.
It is true that not all faces are appropriate for the all up hairstyling, but with the help of the hairstylist you can have some strands left loose to get a soften look for the overall aspect of your face. But these are issues that you should leave them to your hairstylist attitude as they are the ones to know the best what is suitable for your face. Because everything goes down to this: the specific wedding hairstyle must be chosen in accordance with the format of your face, with the style of the dress (if there is a strapless bodice dress or one that covers the shoulders up to the neckline) and with the decision to wear earrings and/or necklace.
Before allowing your hairstylist to work with your hair make sure that you run through the entire gamut of half up wedding hairstyles images and consult with the artist on the one you like the most. He or she might tell you if that one is the most adequate for your face and your wedding attire as well.
Wedding Hair Updos – Some Great Tips
There are many ways to dress up your hair at your wedding – it mostly depends on the type of wedding dress you are planning to wear. The hairdo needs to emphasize and highlight the dress. The wedding half updos are extremely elegant and work excellent with both high neck and low décolletage dresses.
Wedding half up half down hairdos are suitable for all types of faces and look fabulous and intimately sexy – just the right look for your wedding day. Looks wise it is one of the greatest – however there are downsides too. Here are some points to bear in mind:
Halfup Halfdown Hair - Important Tips to Bear in Mind
1. Slip ups – if the wedding half hair-up tends to slip, the whole bridal hairdo will turn shoddy and unbecoming. This is why the hair would need to be treated well in advance and you would need to run at-least one or two real hairdo rehearsals to see how the hair behaves over a given period of time.
2. Quality of hair for half up half down updos – thin hair needs to be treated differently from thick hair; also the texture of hair counts a lot while choosing a hairdo. The hairdresser would be able to advice you about the exact way to treat your hair – yet you would still need to run a few tests and see what needs to be done to have the hair behave in the best possible manner.
3. Using pins and accessories – there are many lovely style pins, butterfly, pearl and diamond clips that can add a lot of oomph to the hairdo. There are even lovely shining (glitter) hair gel which when used in the right way can give the hairdo a royal look. The decorative accessories need to be elegant, beautiful yet not too flashy or it would become too loud. These should be used in such a manner that the hairdo’s beauty would be enhanced.
4. Comfort Levels Half-up hairdos are usually easy to carry. However, you would need to keep in mind that you would have to wear the bridal hairdo for about 10 hours at a stretch – immediately after the wedding until the wedding dinner is over. Hence, you would need to know whether it is comfortable for you. In many cases when the hair is too tightly pinned you might get a headache. Hence, you need to find out whether you are able to carry the chosen hairdo for the whole period required, post wedding.
Handy Tip: Many women do not want to compromise their beauty for anything when it comes to the wedding day – and this extends to the hairdos as well. They feel that being a little uncomfortable would more than compensate the fact that you would look simply fabulous in those wedding photographs. For these women – here is some practical advice. Try and complete all the formal wedding photographs as soon as possible after the wedding. This should take about one or two hours. After this, either leave all the hair down or lift it up into an easy wedding updo which would not only be extra comfortable but also beautiful. In this way you can have the best of both worlds – have a wow hairdo at the wedding and still dazzle your guests and your groom with the second hairstyle for the rest of the day.
6. Have the hairstylist at the wedding – many wedding hairstylists would give you necessary instructions on how to manage your hairdo. However, the best thing would be to have the hair-stylist's assistant (or the hair stylist herself/ himself) at the wedding in case you are wearing a very elaborate wedding half up half down hair-do. In this manner, you would be able to handle any type of emergency – such as sudden sagging of the hair, slipping of pins, too much breeze or humidity (if the wedding party is outdoors) and so on.
Whatever you do, remember one thing – you need to be both beautiful and comfortable and indeed the wedding half up hairdos are a great way to achieve this goal. At the same time, in order to be one hundred percent successful you need to take a few precautions as well as follow the hairstylist instructions to the T. So goodluck with your half up half down wedding hairstyle and have a great wedding day!
