1- The right questions to ask before choosing
Some bride and giving you do not know which hairstyle would be preferable for them. Laure Baruch, makeup artist and hairdresser at home, advises: “If the bride has no ideas or no special desires, I offer him to explain me what she doesn’t like. It’s often easier to start there for her. “
To refine your desires, do not hesitate to consult our wedding hairstyle files and the book of your hairdresser. Organize at least one meeting hairstyle A few months or weeks before D -Day and bring your dress.
2- What does your hairstyle depend on?
Once your desires are specified, the final choice of hairstyle is made according to several criteria:
The length and nature of the hair : If you have very short hair, forget the bun unless you accept the addition of a posthe. And if your hair tends to curl, opt for a bun or a hairstyle attached to the front and blurred on the back.
The choice of dress : “This guides the possibilities a lot. If your dress is original, a classic bun is far from the best option” says Laure Baruch, makeup artist and hairdresser at home. Frank Cartier, from the J. BOGATTI Salon Complete: “I always say that the hairstyle must be prettier than the dress. It must be up to this big day and we will avoid the neglected, disheveled hairstyles”.
the place where the wedding takes place : “It is important to know because you have to prevent the hairstyle from denoting. If you get married in a castle, a bun is more appropriate” continues Frank, specialist in wedding hairstyles.
Wedding period. “For me, it plays a lot. If it takes place in winter, we will rather turn to a haute couture bun while in the spring, the hairstyle will be willingly more vague and more rural,” explains Frank Cartier.
And finally “last but not least”: the The wishes of the bride. “I ask her how she usually draws herself, how she feels more comfortable, if she is ready to be transformed for her marriage or if she wants to remain natural. It helps me to guide her and advise her the hairstyle that would suit her best.” explains Laure Baruch, makeup artist and hairdresser at home.
3- Zoom in on the trend of hair accessories
Headband, retro comb, feathers or flowers … The madness of the accessories swept on bride hairstyles. But is it possible for all? “Yes !” replies Laure Baruch. “If the bride has chosen an accessory, I do everything to integrate it as well as possible in her hairstyle”.
But beware, think of Give your accessory well according to your dress and your jewelry. “For example, if you have pearls on your dress, do not choose rhinestones on your accessory” specifies Laure. “In winter, it is better to choose a bijoux accessory. In the spring, I recommend a flower” guide Frank Cartier, from the J. Bogatti show.
4- The errors to avoid
“If you have already had advice meetings with your hairdresser, above all avoid changing color and cutting before marriage. Your advisor has already thought of a hairstyle for you and this may compromise what she has planned. Likewise, a “failure” of cut is always difficult to resume D -Day “advises Laure Baruch. Contrary to what one might think,” also avoid washing your hair the day before, using a mask or a detangling because the hairstyle is less well on D -Day. A simple washing the day before will be perfect “says Laure Baruch. But nothing prevents you from doing regular care A month before the date of your wedding, to have good hair when the time comes.
On D-Day, “Plan your appointment with the hairdresser early enough not to feel stressed and in a hurry. You can get their hair done and then get dressed at home or even bring your dress to the living room. Specialized hairdressers are equipped with a small intimate room that will allow you to change quietly” offers Frank Cartier from the J. Bogatti show. The brides who called on a hairdresser at home for the evening, will even be able to afford the luxury of changing hairstyle during the day. A classic bun for the town hall and a “evening” version for the party.
