Choosing Hairstyles According to Your Wedding Dress Necklines
With so many bridal boutiques around, it’s easy to get your dream wedding dress without much effort, but have you yet planned on your look. Creating your exclusive wedding look is not easy. Moreover, it should reflect you in its very essence. The way you present yourself on the big day reflects your passion as well as your personality. You simply can’t afford to go wrong with that. No doubt, dress selection matters as much as makeup and hairdo.
Unfortunately, for most brides selecting the hairstyle is not as easy as the dress. Experts say wedding dress necklines could be an ideal guide to deciding the hairstyle. Whether a hair updo, vintage side curls, or a simple ponytail - you can easily decide with the help of the necklines. Also, you can choose hair accessories accordingly to complete your look.
While your bridal hairstylist will guide you the best about it, this article can serve as a great source of inspiration if you are looking for one online. Here’s a look at the styles and necklines that make the best pairing.
Bateau and the Hair Updos
We’re sure you are not yet over with the memories of the elegant look of Meghan Markle in her beautiful boat or bateau neck gown. That scooped bateau neckline was revealing her collarbone with sheer delicacy. If your wedding dress echoes the same grace as that of the Duchess of Sussex, opt for the hairstyle same as hers - hair updos with crystal or pearl headdress. You can also go for a stylish, loosely pinned ponytail or a bun if you want. Women with short hair can opt for tousled tresses or can get a pixie cut before the big day.
Backless and a Side-sitting Bun
For girls with long, slender neckline, a backless dress fits well. And, when it comes to hairstyle, backless necklines offer a plethora of options. A side-sitting bun complements it best but, if you are not in love with hair buns, you can opt for a Spanish inspired look with a fishtail plait. Accessorise it with a sleek headband.
Off-the-shoulder with Subtle Waves
Off-shoulder necklines send boho vibes only when it’s matched with a complementary hairstyle. You can keep your hair loosely tied so that the waves are visible. Such a look makes a great springtime and summer bridal look. You can also reveal your décolletage with a chunky milkmaid braid. It makes a great look for a beach wedding. For girls with short hair, a beachy bob hairstyle stands out.
High-Neck with Flower Crowns
The look is a royal favourite. High neck dresses with lace bodice bear a classic charm, which is intensified more when matched with lose buns. You can choose to keep your hair open and accessorise it with pearl headbands and beaded hairpieces to create a whimsical feel.
Sweetheart Neckline with Cascading Curls
A sweetheart neckline is absolutely flattering and can be accessorised in several ways. If you are looking for a Hollywood-inspired vintage charm, opt for cascading curls sweeping from a side. Also, you can try out a “careless updo” that leaves a few loose hair strands on your face. It looks great when adorned with a lace edge veil.
V-necklines with Side-swept Waves
What else can be more flattering than side-swept waves matched with a plunging V-neckline wedding dress? It not only jazzes up the entire look but also draws attention to the neckline revealing your decolletage. Amp up your look with drop-line earrings or a long chain.
While side sweeping waves are the best hairstyle for the V-necklines, you need to adorn the hairdo with bold pieces of jewelry. For a change, however, you can opt for a half-up half-down do or lose waves. Keep it clean and fuss-free when you are opting for V-necklines.
Wrapping up
As always, choosing a hairdo for your big day gives you the biggest challenge. But, this one can be a handy guide, if your hairstylist does not turn up on time.
