However, the experts suggest a couple of fun ways to wear the style which includes bouncy curls and twisted tendrils. Washing the hair the night before the wedding works the best! Create free flowing curls using a curling iron with a big barrel. Finish it with natural hairspray and enjoy the look throughout the evening. Loose locks are relaxing, glamorous and fashionable.
Hottest Trend in Bridal Hairdo: Headbands
Headbands are the hottest, chic accessory on the bridal runways. Jessica Kersey from Finishing Touch says, “It’s (headbands) unique, beautiful, and reminiscent of the 1940s (flapper style), 50s (preppie style), and 60s (hippie style) depending on how you wear them.”
The choices are plenty in headbands. Choose from a crystal lace head wrap, Victorian silk and satin head wrap from Jennifer Behr to more affordable ones from Twigs and Honey or Pink Frosting. And for a DIY bride, Jessica suggests creating a headband using lace and a vintage brooch from your mother or grandmother’s wedding dress. Pretty neat!
Headbands come in a variety of colors. While black looks formal, white complements the bridal attire and colored adds a splash of color.
Hottest Trend in Bridal Hairdo: Braids
Braids are making a comeback on the bridal scene. While the crown braids are royal and elegant look, cascading braids gives the brides a much softer look. Simple or extravagant, the possibilities are endless when it comes to braids.
Create an organic headwrap by parting the hair in the middle, creating two tiny braids and securing them loosely in the back. Or for a classic look, secure the base of the bun with a braid. Or if you prefer conjuring up the images of the Renaissance era, consider the cascaded style which beautifully blends the soft beauty of free-flowing hair with the tight control of a French braid.

The wedding experts call it ‘the fix it and forget it look’; this demure style keeps the spotlight on you and the wedding dress. The high bun elongates your face, emphasizes your neckline and gives the bride an added height. The low bun softens the look and is perfect for a flat veil.
