You've found the "one", picked your dress, and even your wedding ring. The hard part is coming to an end, but you still have to decide on the best hairstyle to wear on your big day.

1. Understand your mood

Before talking to a hairdresser, Fugate recommends determining the "feel" of the overall look that is boho, airy, modern, simple. “When communicating with a stylist, the mood of the hair is very important, how you feel.

2. Choose your hairdresser wisely

"If you see a hairdresser dissatisfied with a lot of pictures, you probably don't want that on your wedding day." "You want a patient and you understand a hairdresser. It's a big deal—it's a big deal. This is your wedding. I was the first person you saw that morning."

3. Don't get lost in keywords

You might think that using words like "curly," "wave," and "classic" would give you the look you want, but they could mean something different to a hairdresser. Therefore, photos (and very specific details) are useful here.

4. Trial – no matter what.

"I was very, very, very stressed on the exam," warns the pros. "I recently had a wedding, and at trial I put hair extensions in the bride's hair, and she loved - she had her dream long hair, but her fiancé was like, 'I don't feel like I'm married to me. fiancé because you always have Bob." I also won the bride over after a few tries, but all failed. Trials can be very relaxing for you — the last thing you want is to have your hair flapped on your wedding day, because you've already done so much... . "

5. Try several options

While you may encounter your chosen style in your trials head-on, Fugate says it's ideal to have a back-up plan in case something goes wrong. "When I made an experiment, even if the bride and groom liked it, I broke it down and did something else in the same area, giving them a few different options. I don't know if that day will change their mind about what."

6. Open your mind about your hair type

Pinterest inspiration may be perfect, but hair texture can be different from a stunned photo model. “You have to be ready to do what you need to do to give your hair the texture you want,” says Fugate. "Many of my brides want this beautiful, restored texture for their hairdo, and I need to get my hair trimmed the night before, or need to add hair. Normally, that's all doable, but the bride needs to be aware that she may need hair that is two days old, or that she needs to invest in hair accessories and extensions. I have."

7. Straighten your hair

Of course, you want your color to be perfect — but that means you'll have it done a few weeks ago. Fugate said: "Don't dye your hair during wedding week. If something goes wrong and you can't get back to the color list in time, you'll need to finish the coloring three weeks in advance, as it will only grow a little, look a little more natural, and have time to cool off. make sure you love it Your hair color will look amazing on your wedding day.

8. Make sure you pick a look you like 20 years from now.

I forgot to say something important, but remember that you are creating memories. And I want to be happy with my future decisions," said Fugate. "Are you going to spend all this money on a photographer and never look at his photos again? When you see a bunch of hair accessories, you say, "This might be really cool," or "Yeah, that's cool, but the reception. Maybe because of that." ”
