Wedding Hairstyles

My favorite wedding hair style is the gently pulled back bun:

This hairstyle was worn for a traditional church wedding in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This picture was taken by Faith West Photography.

And also:

This hairstyle was from a wedding in Frisco, Colorado. The bride is an earthy simple gal. This picture was taken by Karina Heneghan.

I know some people tend to think this is more elegant but personally, I’m not a fan of the harsh pull-back.

EHow explains how to get the shiny healthy hair that every bride wants.

Get any split ends you may have trimmed off. Regular trims are a must. Visit your stylist every four to six weeks to have the very ends trimmed to avoid your hair’s ends splitting.

For moderately damaged hair, find a good quality shampoo and conditioner. Choose products specifically for dry/damaged hair.

Try shampooing your hair less. Washing your hair every day can strip natural oils that help protect the hair and keep it looking and feeling healthy.

Give your hair a break from the heat. Whenever possible let your hair air dry either completely or most of the way and only blow dry to finish off the drying process. Try using your flat iron or hot rollers only every second or third day, which will be easier if you don’t wash your hair everyday. Just touch up in the morning instead of going through your entire styling routine.

Don’t want a new color but what the shine? Go for a glossing instead. This clear coat for your hair will give you the shine and smoothness of a color but won’t change your natural hair color one bit.

Avoid too many chemical processes, such as colors and perms, and avoid other hair wreckers such as chlorine, sun and tight elastic bands. Switch to semi-permanent colors, lay off the perms for a while and cover up your hair when in the sun or pool.
