Choosing the best hairstyle for your wedding day

Right now the current trend in up-dos for wedding hair is large side-swept buns that have a lot of texture. Sometimes, the texture can be curls with twists, or braids.Elsa's elaborate braid from the movie "Frozen" is also super popular, with some moderate twists.
Here are a couple of things to consider before you fall in love with one of these styles. First, you have to make sure that your hair density supports such a style. For example if the texture of your hair is very fine or soft, and it is not very thick, then this particular style is not for you. You need a lot of hair to support this type of braided or side swept up-do.
Also, the style will differ in ways depending upon whether you have straight or curly hair. Consulting with your professional hair stylist and trying the style in advance of the wedding will ensure that you are happy with the result.
You can never go wrong with a classic French twist or chignon for your wedding day, especially when "vintage" wedding gowns and rings are coming back into fashion. These smooth and sleek hair styles are great for any hair density or texture. A recommendation for prepping your locks for these particular hairstyles would be to get a hair mask or treatment, either at home or in a salon.
Most treatments at a salon are moderately priced and are activated with low heat. Most of them can actually spot fix your dry hair, reducing split ends, and intensifying shine. Shine is a necessity to make your classic chignon looking its best.
No matter what hairstyle you choose, start early to get your hair in its best possible shape. Many brides make the mistake of waiting until right before the wedding to think about how they want their hair to look. For the best result, however, there are several things you should do as a regular regimen to make sure your hair is in its best condition for the big day.
● Do some research on the shampoo and conditioner you are currently using. Make sure it is a low pH shampoo. Healthy hair lives at 3.5.to 4.5 on the scale, so you would want to find something in that area. Higher pH shampoos can do more damage than good for your hair. Experiment with products to find the one that works best with your hair type.
● If you use heat on your hair daily when styling, make sure you invest in a heat protectant. It can be applied to wet hair for blow drying or sprayed on dry hair for smoothing irons or curling irons. This helps prevent dry, damaged ends.
● Make sure to have a trial run with your hair stylist. It's important to have your stylist know what type of hair texture, density, and length they are working with. This will give you the opportunity to have hands down the best style for your wedding.
● Many of today's brides like to get together with other members of the wedding party for a wedding day hairstyling, and it can be a fun experience. If this is in your plans, make sure you allow plenty of time with the stylist and that together you make a schedule of whose appointment is when to avoid any last minute confusion.
