Are you looking for wedding hairstyle inspiration? Then
you’ve come to the right place! We’ve composed a list of the top wedding
hairstyles for brides with long hair. From up-do’s to soft curls, explore which
styles are the best match for your dream do’. Continue reading for more amazing
wedding hairstyle ideas!
French Twist Up-Do
With long hair twisted into a low bun, this look is elegant
and classic for any bride. You can modify this hairstyle to make it lighter and
smoother by tugging pieces around the bun and the crown of the head for more
volume. To frame the face, pull small strands from the front and lightly curl
at the ends. This hairstyle gives us “royal wedding” vibes!
Half Up Half Down
Show off long hair with a half up and half down hairstyle.
This style is easy to accomplish when a bride has longer hair, so that the
longest pieces cascade down the back and the shorter pieces are carefully
arranged at the top. Wedding
Forward comments “It is preferable to comb the crown area a little bit, it
will add some volume and beautifully emphasize the shape of the head.” And we
definitely agree!
Mermaid Braids
Do you want a hairstyle that’s more romantic? Mermaid braids
are the perfect choice. Although the braiding process may seem a bit more
complicated, the results are gorgeous. Ask your hairstylist about hair
extensions for added volume. The more hair, the better the braid is going to
look (at least in our opinion). These braids can be personalized to your taste,
depending on how sleek or “messy” you want your bridal hair to be.

Are you still searching for the perfect do’ for your
big day? From tousled tresses to an elegant twisted bun, brides have so many
choices when it comes to hairstyles and accessories. Luckily for you, we’ve
researched some hairdos that every bride will be wearing in 2020 for you to have some options to choose from.
To see what we have on our list, continue reading!
Voluminous Tousled Waves
For
full and beautiful locks, try wearing your hair down in tousled waves. This
style will work for short hair or long hair, because when it comes to waves,
the more volume, the better. Brides can achieve this look relatively simply,
all you need is a little hairspray and a large barrel curling iron. By wrapping
your hair around a larger barrel, the strands will come out wavy rather than
curled. Make sure to spray directly afterwards for a stronger hold on your hair
and brush out generously. For more volume, tease the crown of your head with a
large comb and use hairspray to finish.
Half Up, Half Down
The modern version of the
half up, half down hairstyle features more twists and less hair accessories.
You’ll want to start by pinning the front portion of your hair back with a few
bobby pins, leaving enough hair to curl at the bottom when you’re done.
Purposely pin back and twist small pieces of hair until you’ve reached a
desired look, and then take the remaining strands and tightly curl. After
completing these steps, you’re left with a beautiful hairdo that was so easy to
accomplish!
Boho Side Braid
Another elegant
hairstyle, the boho side braid is trendy and always looks absolutely stunning
on any bride. You don’t even have to worry about perfecting this look either because
it’s meant to be a little messy. Get started by parting your hair to the side
and piecing together a Dutch braid. Once you’re satisfied with the front, pull
your hair in a ponytail and finish with a regular three-strand braid. Pro tip:
hide your hair band with the leftover strands from your Dutch braid!
Elegant High Bun
One of the more
complicated hairstyles on our list, the elegant high bun is still a beautiful
hairdo that can be accomplished with patience and lots of hairpins. To
replicate this look, carefully pull back the middle section of your hair to
form a high bun and then wrap around
the outside sections, repeating until the bun is full but loose. The front
portion of your hair can be styled by creating a side part and twisting the
hair back into your bun with bobby pins. Slightly pull the front and side pieces
for more volume. Pro tip: Frame your face with curls for a softer look!

attention on your wedding day with a hairstyle that you love! For professional

Your hair is your crowning glory. You take care of it by
washing and conditioning it, using the best styling products you know of to
achieve the look you desire, and maybe by throwing in a special treatment to
give your strands a boost in the right direction. You might know what products
to use for hair based on the styles from popular magazines and makeover shows,
but do you really know your hair and
what it truly needs? To better understand what you need for an impeccable head
of hair, you need to first understand your hair porosity. Then you should be
able to choose the best products for your individual needs.
What is hair porosity?
Porosity can be defined as your hairs ability to accept and
hold on to moisture. Moisture is everything if you want an amazing head of
hair. Without the proper moisture your delicate strands need, they can become
more prone to frizz, dryness, and breakage. When you understand your hair’s
porosity, you can choose the proper hair care products to create the perfect
do’ and enhance the health of your hair.
Types of Porosity
There are three types of hair porosity: Low, Normal, and
High. You can naturally have a particular type of porosity, but constant hair
manipulation can cause your hair to become more or less porous.
Low Porosity
Do you find yourself trying to saturate your hair with water
longer than most people? If you walk through a mist of water, do you see water
beaded up on your hair like flakes of snow? If so, then you most definitely
have low porosity hair. This hair type is prone to products sitting on top of
the hair instead of absorbing and tends to be on the drier side. This is due to
the fact that your hair cuticles lie flat and are not lifted to accept much
needed moisture. Oddly enough, your hair will take a long time to dry once it
is fully saturated with water. Why? Because once water is able to finally
penetrate the cuticle, the cuticle closes again trapping moisture.
Since this type of hair is the most delicate, it is
important for the person to hydrate properly. Using water-soluble products is
best and try to avoid heavy oils and products. Deep conditioning is a must for
a lush, hydrated head of hair so make sure you deep condition with heat (such
as with a hooded dryer, heat cap, etc.) to lift up your hair cuticles so the
conditioner can penetrate effectively.
Normal (Medium)
Porosity
If you have normal hair porosity, you are the envy of the
town! Your hair type can easily accept moisture and you can even cocktail the type
of products you use to suit your needs. The cuticles open and close easily when
they need to, so water and products can penetrate just fine. Your haircare
routine can change with the weather, so pay attention to your mane and give it
what it needs!
High Porosity
Does your hair soak up moisture and products like it’s never
soaked in them before? If so, your hair has high porosity, meaning your
cuticles tend to stay open. Using heavy products can weigh your hair down
quickly, so make sure to look for lightweight, silicon-free products to style
and care for your hair.
How to Find out Your
Porosity
Now that you know the general guidelines on hair porosity,
you might have an idea about which category your hair falls under. But to find
out for sure, there are a few different ways to perform a hair porosity test.
Some easy, popular ways to determine your porosity are the water shed test or
the hair strand test.
Water Shed Test
Wet a small section of hair with a spray bottle and watch how
the water reacts with the hair. Is it sitting on top? Then you have low
porosity hair. Is the water absorbed quickly? Then you have high porosity.
Water shed test
Hair Strand Test
Take a strand of hair and place it in a cup of clean water.
If it floats, it is of low porosity. If it sinks to the bottom, it is of high
porosity. If it floats to the middle, then it is of normal porosity.
Sometimes women have multiple types of hair porosity at
once. If you suspect this, use separate cups of water and pick strands of hair
from different sections of your head where textures seem to differ. This will
help you tremendously with figuring out which products best suit your needs.
Conclusion
As you can see, the styling regimen that works for one
person may not be the same for the next. In order to make that crown of yours
shine and thrive, you need to pick out the right products to suit your low,
normal, or high porosity needs. If you are looking for a knowledgeable hair
stylist to help tame your mane, make sure to call on the experts at Beauty
