Among the wedding hairstyles, styling to one side stands out as the simplest and at the same time original. To do this, it does not take so much time, as, for example, for a complex, heavy knot on the back of the head or on the crown. At the same time, all the beauty of the hair is in sight, not covered by a veil.
Combination with dress
The key image of the bride at the wedding ceremony, which is why every detail should be carefully considered. First of all, the hairstyle should be combined with the dress. If the dress is made of satin and just shimmers with smoothness, styling should be similar - a strict bundle or knot, and if the hair is short - they should lay hair to hair.
In the case of choosing a dress with an abundance of lace, they can be supported by curls. The knot should not be smooth, it’s good if it is framed by “accidentally” embossed artistically decorated curls. For layered dresses, slightly sloppy waves, a slight disheveledness will do.
It is equally important that the hairstyle is combined not only with the style of the dress, but also with its style. So, if you stayed on a magnificent, "princess" dress, you will have to raise your hair, and higher. After all, as we know, not a single princess - not in a fairy tale, not in life - did not marry with her hair loose. Hairpins, hairpins, a bezel, a diadem can be used - any complexity of the created knot is permissible.
If you like a short dress, then, on the contrary, should not be too sophisticated with styling. A cascade of curls and waves that give an image of playfulness is what is best suited in this situation.
Having opted for a luxurious "mermaid" dress, you get the opportunity to create a sophisticated aristocratic hairstyle. All kinds of low beams (except for disheveled ones), as well as large, sideways curls, will do.
A dress in the Greek style will not allow you to wear a veil, but in a favorable light it will demonstrate the beauty of your hair. You can use any, the most difficult weaving, as well as their combination, decorating your hair with flowers and headbands. And having decided to open your shoulders - with the help of shoulder straps or their complete absence, you should not loose your hair so that the beauty of the neck and collarbones is not hidden by a hairdo.
If your dress is tightly closed on top, then your hair will have to be removed. Otherwise, it will appear that your neck is too short and the proportions of your body will visually be disturbed. The same should be done if the top of the dress is decorated with complex patterns, lace, otherwise the beauty of the bodice simply will not be visible.
The best option for a dress in order to lay to one side is a model with one shoulder strap. This style immediately creates an “overload” on the one hand, and you can balance it just with the help of a hairstyle.
Styling nuances
There are a lot of options for hairstyles laid to one side - from braids to curls, from a bundle on one ear to waves in the style of the 1920s. At the same time, each of them looks very impressive, allowing you to demonstrate healthy shiny hair in all its glory.
For girls with medium hair length, cascades of tight curls, and complex weaving, and careless bundles are suitable. As for the happy owners of truly long strands, they will have to stop at the original volumetric braid, because loose hair will create a lot of inconvenience for her during the wedding ceremony and feast.
As for brides with short hair, it is somewhat more difficult for them to create a styling, but there are interesting options for them. Having secured the strands from one side with hairpins or with the help of weaving, on the other side you need to form curls or retrowaves.
In general, owners of short hair retro hairstyles go more than anyone else.
Having chosen styling on one side, you need to take into account both the weather (and season) and the structure of your hair. The hairstyle should be fixed so that neither the breeze nor the humidity spoil it.
Of course, you should make sure that your curls look really chic. This means that three to four months before the wedding, one should start taking vitamins, carefully look after curls, regularly make masks (both for hair and scalp), cut off split ends. Such a functional thing as a scrub for the scalp is also very necessary, and if there is no way to buy it, you can make it at home - from large sea salt.
Accessories
Braids can be decorated with live or artificial flowers, as well as various ornaments: pearls, beads, hairpins. Of course, they should be in harmony with the outfit: if the bodice is embroidered with pearls, then the hairstyle should be decorated just like that.
If you definitely want the outfit to be complemented with a veil, you need to consider that it will not be attached to the crown, but to the back of the head, and will have only one layer. If you choose a traditional long two-layer veil, which will be carried by little bridesmaids, all the beauty of the hairstyle will be lost under the layers of tulle.
The harder your styling, the easier it should be. In addition, it should not be much longer than hair.
For laying on one side, a veil mantilla is also suitable - a single-layer very thin, with a beautiful lace trim on the edge.
Laying on one side makes it possible to try on such an edgy accessory as a mono earring. If the second ear is hidden under long curls, then you can decorate the other with one long elegant earring. Their choice is very large, the only condition is that she must be in style with the dress. If you choose a romantic outfit, a rocker earring will look alien.
If the hair is not long, then long drop-shaped or elongated earrings are suitable, emphasizing the beauty of the neck and collarbones.
