Hair Coloring Tips Before Wedding
Oh! The journey to perfect wedding hair. When it comes to the beauty of the wedding day, most brides know that they need to get someone to make up and style their hair. But there is also another element that should be on your checklist on the day of your wedding: hair color. If you like your natural hair color, it’s great, you don’t have to worry, but for many brides, the perfect wedding hair starts with a beautiful color or highlight. To help you get the look you want, here are the most important things to do and not to do when it comes to wedding hair color – you don’t want to miss this!
IMPORTANT TIPS TO DYE YOUR HAIR BEFORE YOUR WEDDING
No matter what type and color of hair you have, there are some important tips that you need to know before tackling the color of your hair on your wedding day. First you need to decide what kind of look you want to get. Once you figure that out, you’ll know if you just need a root retouch, a full color, or reflections. Then you need to determine who will tackle the coloring of your strands. If you have a regular hairdresser, and he is talented in the hair coloring process, that’s great! But understand this. Not all hairdressers are the same. Some are great for cutting and coloring, while others can be more skillful with color than cuts.
Because they will be on stage at your wedding with their eyes on you, you definitely want to be at your best. Using an outdated color or hairstyle can spoil your entire appearance on the wedding day. Do some research and maybe try a few stylists long before the wedding so you can pick one that will give you awesome coloring work for your special day.
TIMING IS EVERYTHING
The worst thing you can do when dealing with the color of your hair is not to timing them correctly. Imagine that your hair is dyed a few days before your wedding, and it turns out to be terrible. Talk about a wedding nightmare! The key to beautiful strands on your wedding day is to implement a proper hair care and grooming routine long before your special day. For many brides, hair and makeup are two things that are usually left weeks before the wedding. While this usually works well for most brides, we recommend that you start six months before the date.
Why? In simple words, having your healthiest hair on your wedding day takes time. And if you regularly do coloring treatments, this can damage your hair. You should implement hair treatments along the way to make sure your hair is soft, strong, shiny and healthy. These include deep conditioning treatments, hair masks, letting your hair air dry as much as possible and a balanced diet.
This six-month timeline also gives you ample time to test hairdressers and hair dyes that will give you the look of your dreams. There are thousands of hair colors to choose from, and in addition, your stylists can combine colors to create a unique shade. Perfecting the right tone for you may take some time. A good rule of thumb is to go every two months to update your color, especially if you want to go clearer. Then make your final color about two weeks before the wedding – if your hair does not grow quickly, you may want to do it closer to the event so that your roots do not manifest themselves.
COLOR-WEDDING HAIR DOES NOT MAKE
Some specific things you don’t want to do with the color of your wedding hair are below.
RADICAL CHANGE
Please, please, please! Do not do anything too radical. Your wedding photos will last a lifetime and will be appreciated, so don’t go crazy and do something radical with your color. For example, if you have never been platinum blonde, why try to do it for your wedding. You do not know if you are doing well and you risk damaging your hair during the process. Also, do not do anything too trendy, like adding roses or bruises to your hair.
DO NOT FORGET THE PRODUCTS
Your wedding hair will look more beautiful if you use the right products. Ask your stylist what brands you use and consider buying them for your hair routine at home. Even if they are expensive, you can use them until the wedding, and then return to your usual products.
DO NOT ASSUME THAT YOUR STYLIST IS NORMAL IS BEST FOR COLORING THE HAIR
Not all hairdressers are the same. There are definitely stylists who are better for color and hairstyle on the wedding day. Do some research and try a few to find the one that suits you best.
DON’T BE AFRAID TO SHOW PICTURES
Communicating with your hairdresser is crucial to getting the perfect wedding hair color. Take a few photos of the desired results that you want to get, so that both are on the same wavelength.
The perfect wedding hair color can be achieved, but it takes time and effort. But if you want to be at your best on your wedding day, it’s a sacrifice worth making.
