So you’ve picked your dream dress, the perfect shoes to match, your make-up and jewelry, but what do you do with your hair?! And of course Pinterest only has a million options to choose from. The style of your hair is based on many factors such as what your dress looks like, the weather of your location & whether or not you’ll be switching it up at the end of the night! We are here to tell you exactly How to Choose the Perfect Wedding Day Hairstyle.

Tips and Tricks for the Perfect Style

Coordinate it with your Dress

Take inspiration from your wedding dress. Consider its style, neckline, and overall vibe. Have a dress with a beautifully detailed high neckline? Pairing this with a sleek and chic bun or French twist will show off those details and add sophistication to the overall look.Have a ball gown? Balance out the dresses dramatic silhouette and add some romance with a style that is full of volume and texture. For strapless, V-neck, or off the shoulder dresses, show off your gorgeous neckline and shoulders with an updo, or show off your beautiful hair with some curls!

Outdoor Wedding? Do not Underestimate the Power of Mother Nature

If you are having an outdoor wedding, consider the time of year & common wedding patterns in the area. For more unpredictable locations, request your glam squad for a more secure hairstyle and consider doing a low bun, braided updo, sleek ponytail or crown braid. 

Are you a Serial Outfit Changer?

If you are a serial outfit changer & plan on changing for reception, take it a step further and create a different hairstyle for the rest of the night as well! Select hairstyles that are easier to pin up for the rest of the night, or easier to take down for the party. 

Hair Length & Texture

Your hair length and texture when choosing a hairstyle really does matter. Some styles may work better for long, flowing hair, while others may be more suitable for shorter or medium-length hair. Not sure what’s best for your hair type? Our glam team has you covered!

Don’t Forget about your Accessories

If you plan on having a statement piece or other hair accessories for your day, your hairstyle will want to effortlessly flow with them to create a cohesive look.

Keep it on Theme

Think about the overall theme and location of your wedding and expand on that. Getting married in the dessert? A boho braid can give off those adventurous vibes. For a beach wedding, you might opt for loose, tousled waves. For a formal ballroom wedding, an elegant updo or sleek hairstyle may be more fitting. Narrow down that Pinterest search by searching by theme!
