When it comes to wedding hairdos for long hair, should you wear it curly or straight? Long hair leaves you with many styling options. Take your style and silhouette of gown into consideration, as well as your venue and type of reception to get the most perfect wedding hair with veil (or without) possible!
If you are having a destination wedding, there are some beach wedding hairstyles to consider. Curly hair looks best for beach ceremonies because it is carefree and flowing, just like the ocean. Brides to be can wear it long and loose, allowing soft tendrils to move in the beach breeze; or pulled back into a messy chignon that is adorned with a flower near the nape of the neck. If you are hosting a vintage inspired beach-side ceremony, you may consider wearing hair curled into tight waves, resting close to the scalp to allow you to pin your long strands up, making it possible to clip one of vintage styled bridal fascinators with veil on the side of your head.
Curly hair also looks elegant when styled and sculpted in order to frame your face. Try wedding hairstyles with headband that pull the hair out of the face but achieve a cascading curl look over your cathedral length veil.
Curled hair is also idea if you are having a wedding during hot and hazy summer months, when humidity is in the air. Consider curly wedding hairdos for long hair if it is naturally curly so you don’t have to fight the frizz throughout the evening! For accessories, try bohemian headbands with pearls or big flowers on the side, instead of a veil.
Straight wedding hairdos for long hair look best on brides who are getting married in fall or winter months to avoid frizz and limp locks due to hot temperatures.
Long hairstyles also perfectly complement casual wedding ceremonies and receptions, including vintage inspired barn or backyard themes. Opt to wear a simple and straight side part to enhance your sheath or A-line silhouette dress. You may also wish to straighten long hair and pull it into a sassy side pony tail to complement short, strapless gowns.
Wearing hair long in a straight and sleek style and pulled into a tight, low bun will be easy to wear and pair with a variety of veils. The classic hairdo will look casual with a fingertip veil, and formal when worn with a vintage mantilla veil.
Which wedding hairdos for long hair should you consider? Curly and straight styles are contingent upon your venue, season of wedding, and style of dress!
