It’s supposed to be the happiest moment of your life, but it’s
also the most stressful! Wedding planning is a months-long commitment that can
make even the sanest woman go a little crazy. So crazy, in fact, that in the
hubbub of buying a dress, finding a venue, sending out invitations, making
party favors, and everything else, you forget about your hair and makeup! We’re
here to help. Below are three stress-free bridal hairstyles that are guaranteed
to be flattering, unique, and most of all, easy. All of the accessories are
hassle-free, too. You can find great deals on bridal headpieces on eBay. And
with our Things remembered coupon code 40%, you can save even more.
Romantic Waves
Want
to know the number-one secret to keeping your hair easy and elegant on your
wedding day? Keep it down! Updos may be the top bridal hairstyles, but they’re
also the biggest pain. Loose hair requires less product, less time, and works
well with nearly every length and texture. The best way to style loose hair is
with soft waves. It’s romantic, classic, and carefree – just how you should
appear on your wedding day!
Start
with clean hair that has been completely dried with a blow dryer. You’ll need a
curling iron with an either 1-inch or 2-inch barrel, a handful of clips, and
your preferred brand of hairspray. (Shorter hair should use a smaller barrel.)
Using a comb, divide your hair into quarters, first going down your center
part, then the top and bottom of your head. Clip each quarter so that it is
easily distinguishable from the others and out of the way. Unclip one of the
bottom quarters, and comb out a 1.5-inch section of hair. Spray with hairspray.
Next, wrap the section around the barrel of the curling iron – do not use the
clamp! That will give it a crimped, unnatural appearance. Hold for anywhere
between 20 and 40 seconds, depending on the texture of your hair. Repeat along
the bottom quarters, and then the top. Once finished, spray with more hairspray
for extra hold. Finish by parting your hair to either side.
Once your waves are ready, you’ll want to accessorize them with
an equally romantic headpiece. Arhinestone
and lace headband ($16.50) would
look elegant and refined on more casual brides. If you choose to wear a veil,
the drama of a lace-trimmed cathedral veil
($24.99) pairs nicely
with the vintage look of these waves. Whatever you choose, remember to use our Things remembered coupon code 40%!
Veil-Wrapped Updo
For
high-fashion brides, using a veil in an unconventional way is the best way to
make a statement. This is one of those bridal hairstyles that will take
people’s breath away. And it’s surprisingly easy to do!
This
style works best on brides with long, straight hair. Start with hair that
hasn’t been washed for one day. This may sound gross, but the accumulated
natural oils will help your hair stay in place. Trust us, it won’t look greasy!
Comb out your hair until it is as smooth as possible. Take the very top part of
your hair, comb it again, and then spray it with hairspray. Next, using the
fine-tooth comb, backcomb it to give it some volume. In other words, take the
comb, and using short strokes, comb the hair back toward the scalp. Once you
have the desired amount of volume, gently smooth the hair back along the top of
the head and secure with bobby pins. At this point, it should look like your
standard half-up, half-down hairstyle. Next, take the remaining amount of hair
and comb it into a very high looped bun (You know, the one where you flip the
ponytail over the rubber band). Take the bun and fan it out around the crown of
the head to make a sort of crescent shape, and secure into place with bobby
pins. Spray with hairspray.
Now it’s time to wrap. For a more traditional look, go with a 1-tier
veil with satin trim ($2.99). Pin the veil right above the bun, and
then lift it up and over. Gently gather it into a loose circle around the bun,
and then pin into place. Another option is a simple
birdcage veil ($14.99), which is not only easy, but super trendy.
Since birdcages are very study, all you need to do is clip it near the bun and
then arrange it to your heart’s content. As you can see, simple veils are
pretty cheap. Why not experiment a few days before to see which suits you best?

Ornamented Low Bun
Nothing
is more classic – or more versatile – than the low bun. It complements nearly
every face shape, dress style, wedding theme, whatever. When you choose one of
these bridal hairstyles, you don’t have to worry about it matching anything or
working with your hair. It’s a guaranteed hit.
Once
again, start with hair that hasn’t been washed for a day. Comb it smooth. For
an extra sleek look, take the time to straighten your hair. When you’re ready,
comb your hair back into a low ponytail. To give your hair more volume,
backcomb your hair beforehand. You can also section off the sides of your hair,
put the rest in a ponytail, and then pin the sides right next to the ponytail.
Next, take your hair and divide it in two. Clip one section, and then take the
other section and twist it into a rope. Now take this section and spiral it
into a flat bun that touches the nape of your next. You’ll need to go under the
section of hair that’s still loose. Pin until secure. Next, take the other
section, twist it into a rope, and then spiral it in the opposite direction.
Pin until secure. Spray with hairspray.
You can accessorize this hairstyle any which way you please. A pearl and rhinestone tiara
($9.99) is a timeless
look that’s perfect for an evening wedding. A flower garland ($9.30) pinned at the crown of your head is
sweet and dreamy, and perfectly captures the boho-chic look that is so popular in
weddings today. Both of these options are Buy It Now, so you don’t have to
stress about bidding wars. All you need to do is check out, and type in our Things remembered coupon code 40% before you buy.
