We all know part of the reason for visits to the salon is for a good gossip,
but your hairdresser's wedding day advice will be priceless. The countdown
should begin as soon as the date is set. When you book a consultation,
come loaded with ideas. Bring a picture of your gown and hairstyles that
you'd like. Don't buy your headpiece until you've spoken with your hairdresser,
their input can be invaluable. Before you get started, here are some general
guidelines to ensure you look fabulous!
Do
Book
your appointment in advance. It's not uncommon for a good hairdresser
to be booked up to six months in advance
Have at least one style rehearsal a month before the wedding. This
will give you time to make alternate arrangements should you be
less than thrilled.
Be honest with your stylist. You should feel comfortable expressing
what you do and don't like.
Leave plenty of time for your appointment - 2.5 hours should do
it. This is not a day to rush!
Get your hair in tip-top shape. Plan weekly regular visits to the
salon for trims and conditioning treatments 2 months before the
wedding. If you've given nature a little hand with the hue of your
locks (okay, you're a bottle blonde), colour your 3 weeks before
the ceremony to avoid roots and give the colour time to settle.
Don't
Expect
too much from your hair. If you've got Winona's pixie, asking for
Gwyneth's golden mane is just plain unrealistic.
Forget
that your hairstyle has to last the entire day.
Experiment
on your wedding day - do we have to say this? Think, "I've always
wanted pink hair" and it'll all end in tears.
