Perfect Hair for Weddings & Parties
When doing your hair for special events and parties, remember that your hair is just another accessory – like your belt and shoes – it should go with the outfit. Nothing too formal for a more casual outfit or occasion and vice versa. For instance, a traditional, more elaborate upstyle (like a traditional french twist) rarely looks right with a summery garden party dress and sandals. In contrast, something entirely different may be called for when wearing a Vera Wang gown. You always want your hair to complement your outfit, not compete with it. For in salon do’s – always let your stylist know what the event is and what you are wearing so that he can give you just the right look for you. For more formal occasions like weddings, I recommend having your hair done in the salon, if possible. For more casual events, and if you’re doing it yourself, keep it simple. Pulling your hair back into a low, soft and loose bun (chignon) may be a good choice. For straight, longer hair, a small braid in the front bang area pinned back with simple bobby pin or festive hairpin can also be a good look (think Jennifer Aniston). Browse through fashion magazines (and even celebrity rags!) for ideas you like and can easily imitate at home. Just remember, it’s about the whole look – and your hair is your most important accessory!
