Walking down the aisle and getting married to your true love is probably one of the biggest moments in a woman's life. For women, the hairstyle can set the mood for the occasion. If our hair is out of place, we feel the same way.
Updos
The updo is the standard hairstyle for weddings because it focuses the attention on the beautiful face of the bride and provides a state of elegance to the neck. A bun is classic whereas pin curls or a basket-weave effect going up into a cascade of waterfalls are more trendy.
Short Length
Bobs are classic styles that accent the face and jawline. One can spice up the look by having a razor or asymmetrical edge. A bob accompanied by a bang can also frame the face, making it a focal point.
Long Styles
A cascade of hair down the back is another timeless look. The presence of silky ringlets or bold curls are luscious and lend an essence of romance to the occasion. Brides can stray from the basic curl and opt for deep crimples instead.
Braids
Braids of some sort are always a staple in the African American culture. Whether you are wearing cornrows or individual plats, synthetic or human hair, the above styles can be achieved as well.
Accessories
The traditional accessory piece would be a veil. Brides have the option to add rhinestones and sophisticated barrettes to capture the light as they stride down the aisle. The ever so popular tiara will sit daintily in an updo.
Fun Fact
African American women have a vast array of extensions to add to their natural hair to enhance or even change the look completely. Experimenting with color is also a creative alternative to compliment the big change that is occurring in your life.
