Select the Right Headpiece for Your Wedding Day
Headpiece styles range from comb-ins to tiaras to headbands, and
everything in between. Where to begin? Here are some suggestions to
help make your headpiece less of a headache.
Talk To Your Stylist
Consult your hairstylist before you choose a headpiece. Ask for
their suggestions on which headpieces would compliment your
hairstyle and wedding gown. First and foremost, the headpiece you
select should not overwhelm you or your gown - think of the
headpiece as a frame for your face.
What type of hairstyle are you considering? Will you be wearing it
all down, all up, half up and half down? The type of hairstyle you
select should factor into the type of headpiece you select.
Can I Take This Thing Off?
Once you've chosen your dreamy veil and tiara or what have you, you
might want to make sure the veil detaches from the headpiece. Brides
often say they wish that once they start dancing and hugging, they
want to rip the thing off their head.
Making It Stay On Your Head
Are there places on the headpiece where bobbie-pins can be used to
secure it to your hairstyle? Check for hidden plastic loops, elastic
to hold fasteners or small combs.
What If I Want Something Different?
You can forego the formal headgear altogether and choose hair
ornaments instead. Try a comb with flowers - real or silk or
crystals, pearl or gold-beaded bobbie pins which can be pinned into
your updo.
