Wedding Hair Do'S And Don'Ts To Live Your Extra Bride Life

Hi beautiful, are you getting married or do you enjoy planning your wedding? That may never happen. Me too. You may have asked yourself well, how am I gon na wear my hair to my wedding? What'S gon na look the most timeless and the most important question of all? What is gon na make me look like. I am living my extra life while walking down the aisle. These are the three questions we all ask ourselves when picking our wedding hair. I'Ve worked on countless brides in my lifetime. Let me just tell you a lot of them get the wrong hairstyle. I do talk them out of it. However, a lot of them come to me wanting the ugliest I've ever seen. I don't like that. Let'S fix that. Shall we think modern, but timeless? That'S the goal we're trying to achieve with our wedding hair, we're gon na start today's video by taking a trip down memory lane just looking at some eighties wedding hair just for the folk of it, and I feel like we just have to remember where we came From and how much we've progressed and then after that we'll go over some don'ts of wedding hair, some things that I really don't like that people ask for all the time and it's just honestly a little tasteless and then after that I'll. Let you guys know what my opinion of wedding hair is and the things you should do to your hair for your wedding day. I also think it's important to preface this video by saying these are just my opinions, so don't get mad. If you disagree with something I said: okay, I love it. Okay, after you watch today's video, hopefully you'll be walking down the aisle living your extra extra life and that, I think, is really the goal of any bride. So with that all set, let's get it started. So, let's begin checking out some iconic celebrity wedding, hair from the 80s and also just a few Rando this I had some really interesting news. Ah here we are the first image if I were living in the 80s and getting married. I think that this is how my hair would listen. She went for it and I really appreciate it. She said, tease it and they said. Is that enough and she said no keep teasing and they said. Is that enough and she said nope keep teasing I'll. Tell you when it's done, and it was never done until the actual minutes, her wedding started and she walked right down the aisle, and that is how she ended up like this. That'S what I think happened at least these 80s bangs just the most wild thing. Just blown out in every direction possible, she was hit by like 80 mile-per-hour winds, it looks like and her hair just went all back and she let it stay there and then she Harris Brady, iconic she's, deafening her Extra Life. Now we have Princess Diana. Yes, she had one of the most iconic eighties weddings. She went for a simple look to the point where it almost looked like she wasn't attending her own wedding looks like the hairdo took three minutes to do, which I bet it didn't. I'M sure it took like ten hours to do this haircut God, the shaggy - I don't know it's kind of like a weird bowl cut like a mullet moment, I usually like mullets, but it wasn't really flattering at all. I would have liked to see it out of her face. I feel like it would have really opened up her face. This is just giving me nothing uh-oh, oh man, that's what I want it looks like she has a fauxhawk going on. I don't think that was the idea behind this. I'M sure, but I mean she said she's it's the gods, I want height and they said yes, ma'am I'll, do that for you and she got that she did that she has the flower crown with the obnoxiously large veil. It'S all just together, making this wonderful, 80's glam rock princess, wedding, hair and I'm here for it. Now we have Cindy Crawford, give me all the tool you have in this fabric store and they said, but that's a lot of tulle and she said I know I want it all and she got a girl. She got the entire fabric store of tulle. I mean wow, that's a dress, but we're not talking about that. Then she has this crown that looks like it's growing like crystallized salt formation, that's my best descriptor for that and it's going across her forehead. It just looks uncomfortable first of all, then we have this high high bun that looks like she threw her hair up in a hurry. It'S just making this entire moment even that more spectacular, because she has the most extra wedding dress with the most extra gloves. An extra jewelry extra veil and then her hair is just thrown up into a bun and she still looks gorgeous so listen if you're gon na do it might as well go all the way this woman said, let's take off leisure wear and make it into wedding. Wear um this sweatband she has in her forehead might be useful because she might be a sweaty girl in her wedding. I know it's a little stressful, I'm sure I'm sure you know - and she said, but I want a sweatband with a veil on it and she got that exact thing that she was looking for. You go girl and then we got this perms hair. That was then teased out to then create this kind of nest like a bird's nest. If you will on the top of her head, I love it now. We have Mariah Carey who did this down? Moment looks like she washed her hair, put a little curling, serum and and then walked out of the door which, knowing Mariah Carey, was not the case. I'M sure it took several hours to this hair and it was a flop. I mean it doesn't look good. It doesn't, I don't really have much to say about it, because it's just holy that dress is crazy. Oh my god that flower arrangement yeah that's Mariah, Carey, that's what I expected from her. It looks like she's trying on the dress for the first time and she didn't do her hair and she's just trying it on doing a fitting, and then she ended up walking down the aisle that day and getting married. I don't know it just looks like they didn't do her hair. I don't know this wedding party is looking like poodles. They look like poodles. I am NOT saying poodles are ugly by any means I wouldn't ever well, let's focus on the bride. The bride has this updo with this Snooki Jersey Shore pouf with the bun I actually enjoy that it's off her face. I think that it actually is quite elegant. In that sense, however, it looks like a mess in the damn back of her head again. Another bird's nest I feel like on your wedding day. Bird'S nest should not be there, but I actually think she looks kind of like the most put together out of everybody. We'Ve talked about so far. I like that little choker she has on with her beautiful decolletage out white elegant and actually what the [ __ ]. Do. I like this hair, I don't know what's going on right now, I guess it looks kind of cute for the eighties. Should we go with that, I don't know good job girl, you go girl and, lastly, we have Heather Locklear, marrying Rod, Stewart Rod, Stewart totally man you went for it honestly would marry him. It'S fine and then Heather Locklear said: let's do the least with my hair and I actually think she kind of killed it. Obviously, her hair is a little bit shrewd. She has a very, very short layering at the top. It has then blown out to perfection underneath this like cascading and crystal waterfall of a tiara crown. I don't know what you call it. It'S kind of chic. I don't know she kind of looks dope, it's fun I'll, take it. You know Heather Locklear, you look divine and those gloves now that I got that I my system, let's do some don'ts of wedding. Hey, don't do this with your hair when getting married. Let'S do the don'ts one of my favorite don'ts is braids, especially fishtail braids. Let'S keep the fish in the water babe, let's not bring him into our hair. It doesn't look right. I don't know what it is about. Fishtail braids, there are some things you can wear fishtail braids to you is festivals, but if you're a grown-ass woman wearing a fishtail braid, I don't know for some reason, I'm judging you, but also again I'll leave your extra life, meaning to whatever the want that makes You happy but fishtail braids braids in general, for weddings. It just looks like farmhouse vibes. I don't know it's just weird to me. Here'S a couple of images of braids, I hates we have this crown. Fishtail crown it's kind of like a cute when you first look at it, you know it's like, oh my god, so fine, but then you know she's gon na look back on this in 10 20 years and be like what the you. Let me do that myself, like it just, doesn't look timeless or elegant in any which way it just looks like you are stuck as a 12 year old girl, like you, had this imagination of getting married when you were 12 and having a fishtail braid and like You stuck with that and did it it wasn't good. Then we have this photo. It'S just like chunky fishtail, like laying on your shoulder, like it's literally a dead salmon on your shoulder. Like I don't know the braided crown area, it just screams childish and like daddy issues to me, I don't know if that's just me it possibly may be, but I just don't love it. Next we have the overly textured hair - it's mostly just updos that have way too much. Curl texture you'll see here it is okay. So this was a trend. You know ten years ago. It was cool at the time, but let's stop she's like I want to look like. I didn't do a lot to my hair, so let's make sure it's really textured, but then they just overdo the texture and it ends up in this like weird overly textured moment. It just has way too much going on it's so busy, it's like where the look like these little pearl flowers in her hair, and then she has this fun with the braids and the twisties and the texture. It'S like. I can't too much hair like that's what my reaction would be if I saw her hair in real life. Here'S another prime example of too much texture. It'S like they did corkscrew curls on our entire head and just pin that [ __ ] up and was like this is modern dude. This is some new stuff here and then I'm just like it's not you're, not doing anything, nothing about this, it's good. Then she has the braids going into the textured mess and I'm like whoa, pick a style and stick with it up. Next we have the bump. The bump is something I see nearly the most often I love every kind of ugly wedding hairstyle. The bump is always a driving force for those ugly wedding, Styles um. This is what I mean by the bump, the crown region. That is just so volumous. I get it if you have a bad head shaping or trying to correct something, but it's so weird. I don't know why drives me crazy. It'S just such a big like it's a good, it's a guy for a lack of better words, sort of like a tumor on the back of their heads um. I apologize. I don't want to offend anybody there, but it's the only way. I can really explain it. It just looks like a growth out of the top of the head, and I don't know why it's there, let's just flatten that out a little bit. Shall we again. This style is semi cube, but you lost me with the bump the big thump on the back of her head. For some reason, every girl just goes the bump when they're planning their wedding hair they're like I want the bump. I want more volume back here. What other day of your life, have you ever wanted that? Why, now, why are you now choosing to have a bump on the back of your head on your wedding day? You'Re gon na have to look at these pictures forever girl, I'm trying to save your life here now we have the tight curls, the crunchy tight curls. This is the result of showing a old-school hairstylist a photo of beachy waves, and you walk out of a salon looking like this and they say it'll drop it'll drop later. If somebody tells you your waves or your curls will drop later, they probably don't know what they're doing, because there's many ways you can make waves stay in the hair and not have them super tight at first. In order for them to drop. I used to hear that all the time this long by the time you walk down the aisle and your waves will drop like we'll, be timing. It their waves, gon na know when to drop like the wedding bells start going off. They started there just starts happening and the weights are like. Oh it's our time and they just drop down like no there's ways to make hair stay in place. It'S called hairspray, it's called the right products you got, ta have holding products put clips in before she walks down the aisle like this is what happens also when you spray the hair with hairspray and curl it, and it gives you crunch, the curls they're, just not Good there first of all get the bump and the curls going at the same time and a little bit of like a twisted braid on the side. It'S like good whoa and like ten pounds of hair extensions, but leave your extra life. You know I mean they. It looks like she was going for a wave moment and she got curls and she said well, I guess we're going with it. Now we have the overly perfected shinny on. It looks like a giant hanging from the back of your head. Why is your hair quaffed to perfection around a semi-circle sock bun, what the it looks like a shrub growing out of the back of your head? Let the hair move girl, it's so big like this! Isn'T the poorest photo? Actually I get where they're going. I don't mind very quaffed, hair, listen, there's, there's a time in place for it. This just doesn't seem like the optimal look for anybody. The weaves pieces on top of the extremely large chignon is a moment. It'S not a moment that I'm here for I'm sorry, it's gon na, be a no from me darling! It'S just a lot. Now we have the bad headbands. This just feels like culture appropriation to me. This girl just went to an Indian wedding and said that is my look and then stole a headpiece right from the bride. A white person in one of these, it just seems a little culture, appropriating it's all, just like nah, cute Kim Kardashian. Even did it it's a little bit better, it's not as a low. It doesn't feel as Indian wedding vibes to me, but it's still doesn't need to be there for any real reason put a tiara on ur a crown. I think that would better for you and last but not least, one of the all-time worst looks. Anybody can do themselves in their wedding day. Is the sock bun? Do you remember the sock buns? It was a thing everybody found out. You can use a sock to make a bun and every girl came to school with that, damn sock, bun and some of them even did it to their wedding day. They even tried to dress it up with like a little bit of hair around the sides. Just to like really make it wedding II uh and it's a flop girl, it does look very yummy like I would eat her hair. It looks like a mix between chocolate and vanilla and like a caramel swirl going on in there delicious donut, I would eat it. Um, but I would not put it on my head for my wedding and that's all I have to say about the sock, but I think that one kind of explains itself so that wraps up my don'ts for wedding hair glad. We got that out of the way. Now, let's check out the do's for wedding hair, let's see what we got the headband, the simple stylish headband. If you will it's dainty its small, it just adds a little bit of extra oomph to the style, it's beautiful, its elegant and just screams. I'M living my extra life, but I also look like a bad who knows fashion, and then we had this headband with the pearls. That is a legit headband. It just screams timeless beauty to me just has a sort of elegance that says again. I want you to look at me today because I'm gorgeous - and yes I am that so I am gon na wear a sort of crown on my head and you're gon na watch me walk down the aisle and you're gon na watch it glimmer and that's what That gives me I love a good dainty headband, it's beautiful. Now we have what I like to call the cool girl wave. Now this is a wave that is not overdone. She looks like she got her hair smooth out. However, they didn't overly style it overly curl. It she has the perfect amount of volume in the back to make it kind of look a little seventies, ish, still timeless beautiful and also she has that gorgeous dainty headband on and this whole look is just classic timeless and effortless, and I love it, and now This is even a little bit more wavy, but still effortless. I think it is very reminiscent of the time we're in right now. I think this could possibly not age well. This is the one that I think, maybe you might look back on and be like. Oh well, I look like I were all that bad, but it is a very modern and I think the less is more approach is elegant. The headband, I think, is important for this. Look because the look is so plain and simple. I think you need to dress up just a tiny bit with something you wouldn't regularly wear, which is the crystal headband or the pearl headband or a little tiara. You know the easy updo, the beautiful effortless updo. This is how you do texture without looking like you overdid it. You see that bit that is coming back from her face is texture, it's not perfectly smooth doubt, but it's not like curls going on the side of her head. None of that happening. I love this sort of creation they made with that pearl and almost like a necklace going through her hair. She even has a little bit of a braid in there, but I think it works and then the bun is just chill it's not so crazy over style. But it does look like wedding hair still, there is a fine line between a good low bun for a wedding and an overly styled one. This is how you do it right: another beautiful updo, not too much bump in the back. She still has that volume, but it's not like overly accentuated by this part and this part being pulled back tight with the really big bump in the back. It'S kind of like an all overall volume, and I love that she has a few pieces on the front. They'Re not perfect, they're, very tousled, and then the bun in the back kind of just looks like she threw it up, but that little piece of jewelry just really ties it all together and gives you that little wedding hairstyle. I think this is a very modern look. Well, it aged perfect. I don't know, but I do think is great for the time. Sometimes it's okay to dress for the times. I think we can all agree that, sometimes, when you look at back at wedding photos who the pears, if it's like ridiculous, at least you know it was of the time period, and I think that is what's going on in this look - I think it does. Look a little disheveled, but I appreciate it and I think it's a well done to shovelled low updo. Now we have the Shenyang, however, done well and a modern type of Shenyang. This is still elegant. It'S still very pulled back and tight and there's not a lot of messiness going on, but it's modern. It feels new. It is still very wrapped. It still looks like a small little turd on the back of her head, the most beautiful turd I've ever seen. You know um, I love the bit of crisscross enus, going on above the chignon, and I think it's so great how it's like laying on her neck. It'S very low, it's a beautiful style, and it's quite time wasn't my opinion. This one is even more sleek. This one is a great size. It looks like a small, tiny little croissant, you find at a French bakery and they say oui oui young and you say thank you. It'S elegant. It'S timeless! It'S beautiful with her hair color. I love the low chignon, it's not too big. It'S not overdone that they didn't try too hard this stylist. Whoever did this is great. Now, if you really want to live your extra life, maybe try doing the glamour wave. The glamour wave, I think, is a an amazing choice. It'S like an old Hollywood. Look. I think it is sort of timeless some people go really overboard with this one too, but we won't talk about today. The way it's done in this photo right here is perfect to me. I know some people really want that refined, look and I can get with that. But do it right do a relaxed wave and have the wave formation all the same and have everything very uniform sexy, smooth, silky shiny and that's how you do a wave correcting for a wedding here is a more toss old version of the glamour wave, but still Very much a glamour wave, she has a beautiful amount of body in her hair. I really do like the one side tucked behind the ear and then she has that really wavy look on both sides of her head, and I think this is just great. I love her hair length. It works perfectly with the dress and yeah. She could always put one side behind her shoulder and change up the look a little bit, but it's beautiful and I think it's perfect for the look that she's going for now. We have the low ponytail. I actually really dig a ponytail ponytails are great too, because you can really slicked back your head and give yourself a facelift with them. Hi ponies, probably not you're gon na lick, her out of workout class, but a low pony. It looks special, add a little bit of texture and a little bit of wave to that. I love the way she has this jewelry in her hair with a little wrap around and it's a very thick ponytail, almost a little bit too thick. I think it's good for her and, I think, looks elegant and classy while still having a Down updo. I think it's great for this dress. She picked it's showing her decolletage, but maybe she didn't want all the hair off of her shoulders. So she chosen in between - and I think it's perfect - and this is how you do a great low, ponytail, another great low ponytail, this one's, a tiny bit higher, still think it's great. I like the way they overlapped the hair and a little crisscross pattern. Did a soft wave on the ponytail there's not a heavy amount of extensions in her hair that makes her hair look heavy and, like lifeless performing a volume in her crown area and lastly, let's talk about the easygoing bun. This looks like her hair was thrown up. The most gorgeous way, you know those days where you throw up your hair and you look in the mirror and you're like oh did. I just do that like. Why can't I do that every single day in my life, why is this the most perfect messy bun? I'Ve ever done to myself: that's this bun sitting at the perfect height, where it isn't too low. It isn't too high. It'S still very sleek, but messy really says I care, but not too much that I'm not a fun girl and I can't get down on the dance floor at my own wedding. You know she looks like she can get down. She'S gon na shake her a little bit and she's gon na go home with her hubby and just you know those are mine dues I compiled that list to hopefully inspire you to make better choices on your wedding day, I'm just kidding those are just my opinions. Take it or leave it, you don't need to do everything I said, but those are my dues and I love all of those looks now that we've discovered all these beautiful fabulous looks. What'S the right look for you on your wedding day, consider the dresses detail. Is there a lot going on up here, other beautiful straps, you want to show off, or do you just love your decolletage? Do you have the perfect shoulders? Do you want to put a lot of like shimmer on your shoulders? Do you want to show that off? Do you have jewelry, maybe do a little shinny on maybe do something a little bit more edgy, like a messy bun moment. Do you want do a pony tail, but there's a lot of back detail maybe opt for a bun in that situation. Next, you want to choose hair, that's gon na fit the theme. Are you having a very ritzy ritzy wedding? Are you spending big bucks? Are you doing a quick, on-the-go wedding, you're gon na? Do your own hair for it? Well, these are all different things. You should look at there's different complexities to each look. Maybe if we're gon na do your hair yourself, you do just a very loose Beach wave or a very elegant messy bun. Those are pretty easy to do yourself at home and you can totally do it. I believe in you look up some tutorials or maybe you're doing top dollar spending all this money on your wedding, and you have the best hairstylist well, then see what they can do. As for their opinion, maybe do a look. That'S a little more complicated like some glamour waves or the easygoing bun. What I'm saying is dressed for the occasion. Even with her hair, you want to be glam, be glam. If you want to be chilled be chill, my next tip is longer is not always better. I'M talking about hair every girl says I need to girl my hair out for the next two years before my wedding. First of all, there's extensions. You can just tape them in for the night. They look very natural. It'S easy it's cute, but I think, having shorter hair for wedding day is severely underrated. I think a lot of the time. The hair is very overwhelming and heavy it's all around, just like a lot to look at and a lot to deal with and looks very uncomfortable, shorter is sometimes better and less hair is sometimes better. Don'T put too many extensions, your hair, please don't make it way down crazy and, like I'm wearing to get animals on my head, and one of my most important tips of all is to be you do what makes you happy. This is your day and your husband's day. Don'T forget that if one of the ugly hair cells would make you happy go for it. This is not my wedding. These are just my opinions. Whatever makes you smile, what makes you glow on the outside is all that really matters, so they opinions, and I got your back and I might roast you for it, but at least you were happy so if you're wondering now Brad, what would you wear for your Wedding day, how would you do your hair? Well, I'm glad you asked. I know if I was a female with longer hair. I think I would just like bohemian beach waves. I want to look like I didn't. Try, that's the vibe. I would go for all right.
