Wedding Hair Fit for a Royal Bride
By: Angie Manson
Choosing the perfect wedding day hairstyle is a lot like the process of finding Mr. Right. The look has to be timeless but not boring. Fun and exciting, but not obnoxious. Comfortable but not predictable. Interesting. Dependable. And of course, it has to be hot! And with excitement about the royal wedding at fever pitch, we found several styles from 2012 Bridal Fashion Week (hey, it’s never too early to start planning!) that even Kate Middleton might find suitable.
Anne Barge | Simple Yet Statement-Making
“The hairstyle at Anne Barge was sleek and simple,” said L’Oréal Professionnel Portfolio Artist, Joseph DiMaggio. “A style like this allows the dress to do the talking and lets the bride’s natural beauty shine through. This look would be perfect for Kate Middleton, who might be bolder with her fashion choices than previous royal brides.” He recommends using L’Oréal Professionnel Freezing Mist to ensure humidity does not get the best of the style and to ensure the look lasts all night.
Carolina Herrera | Embellished Knot
“The hair of every bride should be simple and elegant,” said Yann Varin, owner of Yann Varin Salon. “The low and full knot accented with crystal embellishments that we created for the Carolina Herrera Bridal collection is perfect for brides who choose to wear a low-placed veil, which would be stunning on Kate Middleton. This style suits her understated glamour.” To achieve this look, Yann recommends using a bodifying mousse like L’Oréal Professionnel Mousse Volupté to create plenty of volume and to tame flyaways.
Badgley Mischka | Modern Twisted Chignon
“We always see Kate with her hair down, and it is clear that she feels more comfortable with a relaxed, flowing hairstyle,” said Eva Scrivo, L’Oréal Professionnel Celebrity Stylist. “However, it is more appropriate for the occasion to wear her hair up. She will be more comfortable when posing for photos and an upsweep is especially flattering with a veil. Using a light-hold hairspray, such as Infinium 2, Kate could wear a modern chignon for the ceremony, then take her hair down for an effortless look at the reception.”
