Wedding hairstyles on the side

Among wedding hairstyles, side-styling stands out as the simplest and at the same time original. To do this, it does not take as much time as, for example, for a complex, heavy knot at the back of the head or at the top of the head. At the same time, all the beauty of the hair is in plain sight, not covered with a veil.

The bride's image is key in the wedding ceremony, which is why every detail should be carefully considered. First of all, the hairstyle should be combined with the dress. If the dress is made of satin and simply shimmers with smoothness, the styling should be the same - a strict bun or knot, and if the hair is short, it should lie hair to hair.

If you choose a dress with an abundance of lace, you can support them with curls. The knot should not be smooth, it is good if it is framed by "accidentally" knocked out artistically designed curls. For multi-layered dresses, slightly sloppy waves, light disheveledness are suitable.

It is equally important that the hairstyle is combined not only with the style of the dress, but also with its style. So, if you settled on a fluffy, "princess" dress, your hair will have to be raised, and higher. After all, as we know, not a single princess - neither in a fairy tale nor in life - married with her hair down. Hairpins, hairpins, a headband, a diadem can be used - any complexity of the knot being created is permissible.

If you like a short dress, then, on the contrary, you should not be overly sophisticated with styling. A cascade of curls and waves for a playful look is what works best in this situation.

Choosing a luxurious "mermaid" dress, you get the opportunity to create a sophisticated aristocratic hairstyle. All types of low tufts (except tousled ones) are suitable, as well as large curls laid to one side.

A dress in the Greek style will not allow you to put on a veil, but it will show the beauty of your hair in a favorable light. You can use any, the most complex weaving, as well as their combination, decorating the hairstyle with flowers and headbands. And deciding to open your shoulders - with the help of shoulder straps or their complete absence, you should not loose your hair so that the beauty of the neck and collarbones is not hidden by the hairstyle.

If your dress is tightly closed on top, then you will have to remove your hair. Otherwise, it will appear that your neck is too short, and the proportions of the body will be visually disturbed. The same should be done if the top of the dress is decorated with complex patterns, lace, otherwise the beauty of the bodice will simply not be seen.

The best option for a dress for side-laying is a model with a shoulder strap. This style immediately creates "overload" on the one hand, and you can balance it just with the help of a hairstyle.

There are a great many options for hairstyles laid to one side - from braids to curls, from a bun on one ear to waves in the style of the 20s of the twentieth century. At the same time, each of them looks very impressive, allowing you to showcase healthy shiny hair in all its glory.

For girls with medium hair length, cascades of tight curls, and complex weaves, and careless bunches are suitable. As for the happy owners of truly long strands, they will have to dwell on the original voluminous braid, because her loose hair will create a lot of inconvenience for her during the wedding ceremony and feast.

As for brides with short hair, it is a little more difficult for them to create styling, but there are interesting options for them too. Having fastened the strands from one side with hairpins or by means of weaving, on the other side you need to form curls or retrowave.

When choosing a side style, you need to consider both the weather (and the time of year) and the structure of your hair. The hairstyle should be fixed so that neither the breeze nor the moisture will spoil it.

Of course, you should make sure that your curls look really chic in advance. And this means that three to four months before the wedding, you should start taking vitamins, carefully care for the curls, regularly make masks (both for hair and scalp), and cut split ends. Such a functional thing as a scalp scrub is also very necessary, and if there is no way to buy it, you can make it at home - from coarse sea salt.

Braids can be decorated with natural or artificial flowers, as well as with various decorations: pearls, beads, hairpins. Of course, they should be in harmony with the outfit: if the bodice is embroidered with pearls, then the hairstyle should be decorated that way.

If you definitely want the outfit to be complemented by a veil, you need to take into account that it will not be attached at the top of the head, but at the back of the head, and will have only one layer. If you choose a traditional long two-layer veil, and even carried by the bride's little assistants, all the beauty of the hairstyle will be lost under the layers of tulle.

For styling on one side, a mantilla veil is also suitable - one-layer thinnest, trimmed with beautiful lace along the edge.

Laying on one side makes it possible to try on such a trendy accessory as a mono earring. If the second ear is hidden under long curls, then you can decorate the other with one long chic earring. Their choice is very large, the only condition is that it must match the style of the dress. If you choose a romantic outfit, a rocker earring will look alien.
