How you wear your hair at your wedding is important. It should compliment not only your face but your dress as well.
It is not harmful to have your regular hairdresser practice on you a few times.

If you want a wedding updo and you have relatively short hair then although with many grips and much hairspray it is possible, do remember that your hairdresser can do the impossible but miracles are outwith their reach!

You may try to get a rough idea of what sort of style you are looking at for your wedding hairstyle as far in advance as possible. It gives your hair a chance to grow to a length that is more manageable for your hairdresser.

Remember it is you that is getting married and not some fairytale image of you that you have held in your imagination since you were six! You don’t want to walk down the aisle to your beloved and have him not recognize you because your wedding hairstyle is so different!

So, try not to go for something very different; chances are you will get fed up with it.

Consider if an updo requires a lot of help to stay up then as a wedding hairstyle, it probably isn't right. Hence, your wedding hairstyle has to stay in place for up to 10 hours, a lot to ask of any hairstyle but particularly difficult when a veil is shoved in, you are being swung around the dance floor and everyone wants to hug you!!

It would be essential to go for elegance and comfort. For example, something that suits you and brings out your best features.
