Hair; the 'do dilemma
You got the dress, secured the country club, ordered the cake, and
they are shipping in your favorite flowers, but where will you do your
hair or should you have a professional do it? Do you spend the extra
money or do it yourself and chance a "bad hair day"?

Wedding hair stylist Gretchen Maurer has a few suggestions and plenty
of experience to share! She is the author of The Business of Bridal
Beauty and creator of www.weddinghair.com and had been servicing
brides for nearly 20 years! Whether you book with your stylist eight
months ahead or assume there will be time to do your own hair with
relatives staying over and one bathroom, you need a plan for success!
Here are some suggestions:
Doing your own hair? Practice, practice, practice.
1. Time your practice session and make a list of all of the tools and
products you will need.
2. Put everything in a basket and hide it away to bring out fresh and
ready for your special day.
3. Schedule times for showers if you will be having relatives stay
over.
4. If you are not dressing at home make sure there is a mirror and a
counter or table to work from.
5. Make sure there are proper outlets, if not bring an extension cord.
6. Put on all of your pretty under things and cover up with a button
down shirt or robe. This way after hair and makeup are done just slip
into your gown!
Is a stylist traveling to you?
1. Give exact, adequate directions and phone numbers. Many time brides
give the directions they follow and forget the stylist may be coming
from the opposite side of the highway.
2. Make sure you have a place set up for the stylist to work. (One
bride assumed I would be working from the bathroom and one set me up
in her dark bedroom until her father-in-law kicked my out so he could
get dressed. Personally, I like to work from a large will lit dining
room or kitchen table.)
3. Don't assume the stylist can do extra people last minute. Make sure
everyone who is having their hair done is mentioned ahead of time and
arrives promptly.
4. Be ready yourself and prepare extra time for interruptions.
Are you going to a salon?
1. Schedule your wedding day hair appointment at least eight weeks
ahead.
2. Have a practice session at least a month ahead and bring a picture
of your dress and your headpiece with you to the salon.
3. Record your travel time from the salon to where you are getting
dressed.
4. Add on extra time for getting dressed and make-up if the salon is
not applying it.
5. Bring a Polaroid camera to your hair appointment and take pictures
of the front, side, and back.
6. Ask for more than one stylist to help with the wedding party. Three
stylists for a party of six is the best bet for staying on schedule.
7. Schedule all nail appointments for the day before, this also saves
time.
8. Don't expect to get your favorite stylist to do your wedding hair
is you desire an intricate Updo. This is a specialty service and best
left for the resident expert. |
