6 Tips for Having The Best Hair on Your Wedding Day

Today's guest blog comes from Alyssa, owner and stylist at Revolt Hair Studio.
Alyssa definitely knows hair and I asked her to give some tips for how to prepare your hair for your wedding day!
You're getting married! Congratulations. You found the perfect guy, perhaps even the perfect dress. Now onto the 3rd MOST important thing in your check list. .....  HAIR.  ( or for some of you - that could have been your fantasy long before Mr. Right ).   Either way, let's get down and dirty with what you need to do to prep for the big day.

1. What color hair do you envision walking down the aisle?

Now... Don't get me wrong here; I'm all about rainbow, pastel, unicorn, mermaid locks. BUT. These glorious pictures are going to be around for a long time. Now is not the time to be adventurous.   If it is indeed a different color from where you are currently - get on that ride now. Test drive baby!  Marsala. Chocolate. Beige. Pearl. Whatever your pallet, be sure to figure it out at least 6 weeks before the big day.

2. Up. Down. In between. Boho. Glam.

Style, sister!  What do want your hair style to look like?  Is it simple and romantic?  Complex and  high fashion? Whatever your taste - for the love of God......  PLEASE do a trial!  We're not mind readers. Or Magicians. ( well, maybe I am.. But not everyone. ) <-  totally kidding. But seriously tho. Do a trial. I can almost bet, you tried on more than one dress, ate more than one piece of cake, tasted more than one appetizer. So why not try more than one hairstyle.

3. Health is wealth.

Hair health is key to perfect color and style. If you're not blessed with soft, shiny, luxurious locks - by all means..... Fake it till you make it. Conditioning treatments & glosses are perfect for priming those tresses.

4. The dirtier the better.

Who doesn't love a dirty martini. Dirty joke. Dirty dancing. Hey now!  Behave yourself!  But us hair manipulators LOVE some dirty hair. We're not talking slimy, sweaty, grease ball that's part of the T-Birds. No, we're talking gritty texture.  Wash your hair 1 to 2 days prior to the big day. Dry shampoo and texture paste are going to be your new best friends.  Your hair will listen much better, lay much better, and look much better with a little dirty foreplay.

5. Long hair don't care.

Long is not always better. Just sayin. This is where that trial comes into play. But if it is Rapunzel you desire I've got just the trick. Diet is key. Now I'm not talking go on a diet; but the better you eat, the better your hair grows.  Additionally. All medications, vitamins, trauma, etc effect hair health.  To kick the growth phase into overdrive use Surface Hair's Awaken trio ( shampoo, conditioner, and treatment drops )  found at Revolt Hair Studio. This killer concoction is packed with scalp benefitting ingredients such as Saw Palmetto, Cayenne, Peppermint, & Amaranth to name a few. Healthy scalp = healthy hair. Did I mention it's organic!?

6. Have fun dang it!

This is the best day of your life!  Relax. Enjoy the ride. Try something new. Love it or hate it - it's part of the journey.  And for God's sake. Do the dang trial!

What a great article! Brides should all read things like this when planning their wedding. I hate to say it, but good wedding photography starts with a good photographer and good hair.

What a fun guest blog on how to have great wedding hair. I feel like I learned so much! Gotta get me some Surface Hair's Awaken trio -- I got married a couple years ago, but this sounds like a great treatment for anyone!
