Perfect Look for Wedding Day - Hair Up or Hair Down?

This is one of the most common questions that Brides ask. As a Bridal Hairstylist, I can usually recommend a style that, in my opinion, would suit the Bride's physical appearance and disposition. Whether the hair is up or down, there is always little things that we can do to enhance the face shape and neckline.

A more important factor is whether the Bride would LIKE to have her neck covered or not. Some Brides prefer a clean look and feel and would much rather that she doesn't need to tuck or fix any bit of hair for photos through the Wedding day, while others would feel very bare without the comfort of curls around the shoulder. Half-up-half-down is a very popular compromise.

My advice for Bridal clients is to bring one or two big jaw clips and elastics to the gown-fitting session. While having the gown on, try to twist or bunch up the hair at the back and see what kind of silhouette looks best with the overall image. This would also be helpful in deciding the shape and length of the veil.
