Bridal Hairstyles that Complement Your Gown

Most women don’t realize that they have bridal hairstyle options beyond a boring bun, which is not always flattering. When you look for wedding gown designs, observe the model’s hairstyle and see how it goes with the dress. A good bridal hairstyle will not only frame your pretty face; it will complement your wedding gown design and complete your entire look.

The side braid is a big trend on fashion runways and carpets. It will look great on brides too, especially if your wedding gown has embroidery, lace, and other romantic details.

If you’re going for a bohemian look, try the scoop with a braided halo. A braid used as a headband eliminates the need for hair accessories, accentuates your gown without being too distracting, and echoes the curved shape of your neck.

To create this look, the roots are teased slightly to create a lift, then pinned up into a small bun. If the illusion neck is embellished with beads and other details, perhaps a full up-do is best.

Show off a gorgeous high neckline with an up do that keeps hair completely off your shoulders and face. This look requires two tight French braids that are twisted together and pinned at the back. Add a short face veil or large flower to complete the look.
