THE BEST
WEDDING HAIR
BLING FROM BRIDAL
FASHION WEEK
On the Spring 2016 Bridal Fashion Week runways this season, it wasn't just those ring
fingers that were sparkling. At many shows, the hair was positively twinkling, too! From
pearls to rhinestones to silver spikes, we saw it all — and it was gorgeous. Here are our
favorite examples of big-day hair bling.
The New year brings new hair trends and brides-to-be are busier than ever with all the
prep involved in making their wedding day one to remember. First things first and let's
face it, us girls start visualizing and dreaming of "the look" – hair and make up and the
special dress of course – soon after the proposal.
It's such a lovely exciting time in our lives that we will remember forever. Here’s just a
brief from the talented hair team at DSalon in Ibrag of our top bridal hair looks for all
girls walking down the aisle this year.
Embellished Braids
To achieve the glittery, almost
ice-princess-like braids at the Reem Acra show, hairstylist Joe
DiMaggio wove shimmery beaded trim through braided hair
extensions. (And yes, the models were all wearing extensions
— they did not have waist-length hair!). To finish the look, he
then applied tiny sparkly appliqués — using the heat of a curling
iron to activate the adhesive — to back and sides of the models'
heads. We even spied designer Reem Acra herself with a few
sparkles in her hair
Eye-catching crowns
Sure, the spiky silver crowns
at the Naeem Khan show aren't for everyone. (They gave us a
definite Game of Thrones vibe, after all.) But for the bold bride?
Well, there's no cooler way to make a hair statement.
Intricate accessories
At the Marchesa show, the
models' sleek looped buns looked fairly simple until they were
topped off with elaborate bejeweled hair combs. Created by
Erickson Beamon, the accessories served as a fresh, modern
take on the traditional sparkly tiara.
My best hair advice for brides-to-be getting married this year
is to plan ahead and book your wedding hair at the salon in
advance as well as a bridal hair trial around a month before. It's
best to start going to the salon you wish to get your hair done
at for your wedding for the stylists to get used to your hair and
also for you to get to know the team. Bridal hair trials are key for
the stylist to get to know your character, likes and dislikes and to
create something special to suit your face and your personality
best.
Once you have selected the dress its time to start thinking of
your hair and make up so don't leave it till the very end to plan
out your look. A talented and creative hairstylist who loves
wedding hair will help you achieve your special look that will
truly make you shine and at the salon this is just what we do!
