Beachy Wedding Hair Styles

I just finished with the gorgeous Bride Miss Tiffany, and her Bridal Party! What a sweet group of girls.

It is music to my ears when I hear my Brides/Bridesmaids say “I Trust You” do what you think looks best.

Here Is Why:

1. 9 times out of 10, the picture of the hairstyle she has picked out is not similar at all to her own hair.

2. The photos usually handed to me only show what she wants the back of her hair to look like. Who is looking at the back of your head? Why are you spending so much time dwelling on the back of your head? We need to make sure you look great from the front, where your smiling faces are going to be in your family albums forever and ever.

3. Length. When I am handed a photo of this big beautiful full updo, from a Bride who has shoulder length, thin hair…. That’s when I have to wave my comb in front of her and say “This here is a comb. Not a Magic Wand”

4. Texture. When looking for hairstyles, keep in mind the texture has a lot to do with the outcome as well if you are wanting your hairstylist to duplicate from a photo. If you have frizzy, curly, long hair…. don’t show your stylist a photo of a style that is short, straight and sleek. If your hair is thin and straight as a board… don’t pick out a style that obviously requires a lot of hair to achieve the look.

5. Color. Hair with Highlights, looks completely different in an updo than hair with no highlights. That color dimension makes a huge difference.

My styles above in this photo, each one of the girls sat down in my chair and let me work my magic. No photos to show me. I asked them, up or down and where they part their bangs. From there I created them each their own unique style that worked with their hair and facial features.

So I would say give your Stylist some room to be creative, she may come up with something amazing that you never knew your hair would do 🙂

How To Make Your Hair Grow Longer And Faster

Hair Growing Tips

Long beautiful hair is not something you can have overnight. It needs proper hair care and healthy habits, followed dedicatedly over a long period of time.

Here are some tips to grow your hair longer, healthier and more beautiful.

• First, wash your hair regularly with a shampoo that is suitable for your type of hair. Shampooing your hair regularly will cleanse your hair and scalp and help maintain healthy hair. However, you have to keep in mind that shampooing your hair too frequently is not recommended as it can affect the natural moisture level of your hair. Two or three shampoo washes per week should be sufficient. Also, while washing your hair you should always use cold water. Using cold water helps to close the hair cuticles, thereby retaining moisture in the hair.

 

• Another equally important practice is to use a good conditioner after every hair wash. Conditioner is especially important for long hair because the moisturizing oils produced in the scalp do not reach easily the ends of the hairs. Long hair, therefore, tends to become dry easily, and then becomes weak and brittle. The best way to apply conditioner is to take generous amount of conditioner and work it thoroughly you’re your hair right after a wash. This way, the moisture that is already absorbed can be trapped in the hair more effectively.

 

• Apply a mixture of coconut oil and almond on your hair and scalp at regular intervals. A massage of these oils will help strengthen the hair roots and aid growth of hair.

 

• Take care of your diet so that you have enough protein in your meals. Protein is essential for the health and growth of hair. Besides protein, your food should also contain essential oils, vitamins (B, C, and E), and minerals (zinc, sulfur, and magnesium).

 

• Trim your hair at regular intervals so that the split ends of the hairs are eliminated. Split ends, if not trimmed, can damage the whole hair.

 

• Take adequate steps to protect your hair from becoming weak and entangled. There are many ways you may be unknowingly harming your hairs. One of the common harmful methods is the way hair is dried. Do not rub a towel with force on your hair. Instead, you should gently blot the extra water from your hair with a dry towel, and then let your hair dry naturally. Doing so will ensure that the hair does not get entangled, knotted, or broken. Use of a blow dryer should also be avoided as far as possible because regular use of it can damage your hair. Another common way to harm your hair is by following an improper method of combing. Do not comb your hair when wet, and never force the comb through a knot – knots should be loosened with your fingers.
