Popular Wedding Hairstyles

The most popular wedding hair styles this year run the gamut from formal to casual, from sweeping updos to artfully tousled pony tails to half-up half-down hairstyles to smooth, shining braids. The style you choose for your big day depends upon the formality of your event and the texture and length of your own hair. Your stylist will want to see pictures of what styles you have in mind, and will work with you to create a style that’s uniquely yours for your big day.

Our stylists will go over pictures of various styles with you and help you decide what will best fit your facial features, hair texture, and personal taste. With long hair, it’s possible to create a cascading half-updo with a smooth bun or braid at the crown of the head, with tendrils of hair hanging romantically down. Or, you may prefer a full updo with braiding or a bun for a sleek, smooth style. 

Shorter Hair

Some women fear that having shorter hair will limit their options when it comes to styles for the big day, but the contrary is true. There are many attractive wedding styles for short hair. The use of accessories like clips or combs can add extra flair, while curling and shaping create a pleasing shape. No matter how long or short your hair, we will work with you to create the style that fits your special day. 

Ethnicity

There are as many different hair textures as there are brides. Whether your hair tends to fall into tight curls, lay fine and smooth, or is thick and straight will affect the style you choose. Wedding styles for black women run the gamut from natural to smooth. Many people of color enjoy thick, textured hair that is a pleasure to work with and offers opportunities for a variety of stylish and beautiful hairdos. When perusing photos of styles you’d like to emulate, consider your hair’s length and texture as well as your own personal style, and our stylists will help you accomplish the style that’s uniquely and magnificently yours. 

Flower Girl Hair (10 & Under) in Charleston, SC

Next to the bride, the flower girl is the minor star of the wedding-day show. She’s the supporting cast to the bride’s big walk down the aisle, preparing the guests for the stunning beauty of the bride with the charm of an innocent. You’ll want your flower girl’s style to match your bridesmaids’ and the overall theme of your wedding. Dealing with children during a formal service which requires expected behaviors can be challenging, but with some flexibility and understanding of the child’s personality, needs, and comfort, she can bring memorable moments to your wedding day. Your best bet? Consult the child’s parents in matters of comfort, and keep those suggestions in mind when choosing a hairstyle for your flower girl.

Updos

The classic updo is a splendid choice for a child’s fine hair. A smooth top knot, messy bun, braided bun, or twist, the possibilities are nearly endless. Children’s hair tends to be finer and lighter than adults’ hair, so take into consideration the volume of the child’s hair and the shape of the face when choosing the right updo. Ideally, the hair should frame the cherubic face, and the design of the updo should provide a nice contrast of texture and smoothness. Adding flowers, a headband, tiara, or other accessory is a nice foil for smooth, straight hair.

Natural Beauty

You may choose a more casual style for your flower girl, especially if the child is sensitive. Tight updos may be uncomfortable for some children. If she’s uncomfortable, it’s less likely that you can expect your flower girl to carry out her duties smoothly and with a smile. Casual styles may include a half-braid which stops half-way down and blends into the rest of the hair, or twists that bring the top and front of the hair back and away from the face. Half-updo styles allow for creativity and adding texture to the style without the need for tight fastenings that might make the child uncomfortable.
