On every girl’s wedding day, nothing has to be far from perfect. Her white dress should flaunt all her aspects and her makeup will flawlessly bring out the glow in her eyes. But among all things, a stunning hairstyle must enhance her unique beauty.
Depending on the type of your hair, here are some glamorous hairstyles perfect for your special day.
Wavy Hair
Contrary to belief that having wavy hair is a curse, there are cute and fun styles to experiment with. Sometimes, it just needs an affectionate brushing to tame those frizzy ends and keep your hair framing your face. Wavy hair can also refract the hair, giving it a warm glow and an illusionary tinge to give your hair some colour. Here are some styles to help bring out the best out of your wavy hair.
Flower Braid

Placing flowers on the hair has been a common practice especially for garden weddings. But in a half up half down ‘do, turning your hair into the flower itself is a unique feat among stylists. This hairstyle involves braids that are then entwined and weaved together to form a rose that would hold your wavy hair together at the top. As for the final touch, add a little Argan Oil to tame the frizz and let your wavy hair flow down for a more elegant look.
Braided Chignon
The braided Chignon is a combination of braids formed into a loose bun. The braids are kept loose for a more modern look and also not to damage the hair too much. To create a modern look with a classical elegant touch, put on a simple pearl branch clip.
Classical Bun
Nothing beats the well-loved, classical bun. Not only is it practical to keep cool but the bun also gives an illusion of having a longer neck. While having a plain bun is nice for a simple yet elegant look, spice it by making braids to form the bun. Then, create a small wreath-like shape at the back to give it more texture. And for the final frame, take out a few strands and tresses for a naturally sophisticated look.
Straight Hair
Most people see straight hair as boring because at most times, it looks limp, flat and greasy. However, having a volume-less straight hair is a blessing as it can either be ironed or permed in anyway you choose. A straight cut look, whether long or short, can bring out the elegant look you’re looking for with these simple hairstyles.
Twisted Pullback
Parting the hair on the side gives an illusion for a nicer symmetry on the face. This hairstyle also emphasizes your simple yet glossy straight locks. For this look, the bangs (or shorter layers of hair in front) are then twisted and pinned to the larger side of the parting to give a braided look.
Upswept Bun
