your hair along too? Use the following checklist to ensure your wedding
dayhair is everything you dream it will be:

with. You should be able to expressyour likes and dislikes without feeling
awkward.
2. Long hair, shoulder length, or short hair? It isimportant to consult
with your stylist well in advance andmake a decision. Long hair obviously
gives the stylist muchfreedom for creativity but a skilled stylist can
also workwell with medium and short styles. Be sure to choose alength that
fits with your personality and style.
3. Have your hair compliment your wedding dress. This canbe done by both
style and accessories. Smooth, straight hairand pinned up curls are often
paired up with smooth satingowns, whereas a tulle dress often goes well
with softcurls.
4. Take into consideration your silhouette. If it's
alonghorizontal lines such as with a wide dress, you'll want tostick with
that look for your hair as well. The same goesfor a vertical profile.
5. You'll be spending a lot of time at the salon picking outthe perfect
hairstyle, so it's best to be prepared. Be sureto wash your hair the night
before your consultation, andtry to have some pictures of styles you'd like
to try out.
6. Take a picture of your wedding dress along to yourstylist. This will
greatly help the process along. Also takeyour veil with you, and let the
stylist know what kind ofwedding you are having: formal, informal, evening,
daytime.Alternatively, consult with your stylist before deciding onyour
headpiece.
7. If you are interested in a new cut or color to your hair,don't wait
until right before your wedding. Make the changesduring the initial
consultation with the stylist, so thatyou don't have any unpleasant
surprises down the road.
8. After you have decided on your style, make sure you walkaround with it.
Your wedding day will be a long one and youcertainly don't want an
uncomfortable hair do causingirritation!

swept hair (for up dos) and it'simportant to make sure the style can hold
the veil in place.
10. What accessories are you going to wear? You will already(hopefully!)
have your headpiece picked out. Flowers, pins,and beads can be used to add
an extra sparkle to your hair,and you can and should coordinate them with
the rest ofyour jewelry.
