Wedding Hair & Make-Up Tips

Submitted By: Rafi Michael

Preparing yourself to look beautiful on your Toronto wedding day doesn’t start a few hours before the ceremony. There are several things you can do in advance to help yourself look and feel beautiful on your wedding day:

- Join a gym, or start walking to get some exercise

- Start drinking at least eight glasses of water per day to flush toxins out of your system. Also, water helps you feel full, so you may be inclined to eat less!

- Get a facial every five weeks from now until your Toronto wedding. Skin exfoliation provided by good facials, removes dead skin cells from your face and makes your skin glow.

- Start getting regular manicures and pedicures to help to keep your hands, feet and nails in good condition.

- Book a hairstylist and makeup artist for your wedding day. Be sure to do this a couple of months in advance and go in for a trial run a couple of weeks before the wedding

- Have your haircut and colored two to three weeks before the wedding to avoid the new cut and color look.

The Toronto Wedding Day: Professional or Do-It-Yourself?

If you choose to have a professional do your hair and makeup to look beautiful, this can be a great way to relax and get pampered on your Toronto wedding day. Many professional makeup artists can make your face both camera-ready and natural-looking.

If you choose to have your hair and makeup done at a salon, don’t forget to schedule trial appointments at least a week before your wedding. You will want to bring your veil to the trial appointment.

If you want to do your own hair and makeup, here are some general tips:

- Use a foundation close to your natural skin color

- Apply loose powder to your face and neck.

- Line your eyes with a brown pencil.

- Avoid frosted eyeliner or eye shadow. Matte shadows work best in photos.

- Curl your eyelashes and apply brown or black mascara.

- Apply a flattering blush to your cheekbones and blend upwards.

- Line your lips with a pencil and apply lipstick. Five little tricks

- For smooth lips use a toothbrush to exfoliate your lips and remove dry skin.

- To make lipstick last, line lips with a pencil and apply lipstick, then blot with a tissue. Leave the tissue on your lips and with a loose powder puff; press the puff on top of the tissue. Remove the tissue and reapply your lipstick.

- If your eyes are red, eye drops can work, but can be a bit messy. Instead, use a white pencil near the inside of your lower eyelid.

- Buy new mascara. Mascara should be thrown out every three months. What better occasion for a new tube than your wedding day?

- To make blush last the whole day, use a cream blush instead of powder. If you have oily skin, keep that loose powder close by. Cream blush can make you a bit shinier than normal, but it does last longer!

There are a lot of ways to make yourself look beautiful for your Toronto wedding day, so enjoy the moment, because most important stress is a beauty buster!

Wedding Hair Dos For Everyone

Submitted By: Jane L Martin

Anyone planning or attending a wedding should always take time to have a great hair day. Whether you are the bride, groom, mother of the bride or groom, bridal attendant or wedding guest you want to look your very best. This includes styling an attractive wedding hairdo. While everyone is choosing a wedding hairdo, he or she should be mindful of wedding etiquette and never upstage the bride, even in hairdos, since the bride is the focal point in attention of a wedding ceremony.

Being the center of attention a bride will take special consideration in choosing her wedding hair. Choosing the right hairstyle means paying attention to the small details of planning wedding. For instance, once you have chosen your wedding theme and colors, you will find it easier to choose your wedding dress and jewelry. Keep in mind that it is best to chose your wedding hairdo before choosing your wedding jewelry. Having a clear image in mind of the atmosphere, you wish to create for your special day, helps to find just the right style of wedding hair and makeup.

An important consideration is the facial shape of each individual when choosing a wedding hairdo. Your facial shape will naturally determine what types of hairdo will best compliment your overall look. The condition of the hair is also considered when styling your wedding hairdo. If your hair needs conditioning or any type of processing, it is best to have it done well before the day of the wedding. By doing so, you will eliminate any potential problems that may arise with time left to correct it if necessary.

Many brides try out several different wedding hairdos before making a final decision of the style they like best. This is a good idea, since you can take your time to decide which wedding hairdo suits you best. There is a wide variety in length and styles of wedding hair. Whether you prefer very short and sassy, medium, long and luxurious or swept up into customized updo hairstyle, you are sure to find many complimentary to your facial shape, wedding attire and overall appearance.

One big decision you have is whether to have your hair professionally styled or do it yourself. Whichever you choose you need to really look after your hair for it to look the very best for the big day.

One thing bear in mind is that the wedding day will be busy enough without some DIY, why not pamper yourself and get a professional in. Why not include a manicure and pedicure as well. After all, you do your own hair every day, so few extra hours of relaxing is called for.

Your hair should also be trimmed, to look its best. When you decide to go to a professional for your wedding hairdo, it is best to take along your wedding dress or at least a photograph. Having a photograph or wedding dress to look at will help your hairdresser help you find the most suitable wedding hairdo.

A great top tip is to wear a button up shirt while having your hair styled on your wedding day. This will eliminate the need to take a garment off over your head and possibly messing up your wedding hairdo. Remember that if you are having your wedding hair professionally styled, you will need to schedule your appointment early and not wait until the last minute to do so.

You can always start early and try out many different wedding hair dos months before your special day. If your hair is shorter than you would like it to be for taking wedding photograph keepsakes, you may want to consider making use of hair extensions. Hair extensions come in a wide array of colors from the very lightest blond to the deepest bluest black. You also have a choice of materials as hair extensions are made from as well as various lengths and styles, such a straight or curly. They are easy to care for and easy to wear, while adding just the right flair to any wedding hairdo.

Most importantly, your wedding hairdo should be in a style that best compliments your facial shape, fashion style, wedding style, and makes you feel beautiful.

Hair Style Is The Most Important One Of All


Submitted By: Sharon Price

Wedding hair styles have seen a considerable change as the fashions through the years change and deciding how to wear your hair and make up for a formal event such as a wedding is a very important decision to make. Today’s styles are much softer and more natural than the rigid styles of years ago being much more free, natural as well as much easier to attain than even those that were fashionable a few years ago. The wedding hair style and how you wear your hair and make up for formal events requires doing some research as well as practicing before the big day or night to make sure you get it right.

There will sure to be hundreds of eyes on the bride on her big day and so the wedding hair will need to be perfect to make the bride feel at her best. How you decide to wear your hair and make up at other formal events is not quite so important as you will not necessarily want photographs to remind you of the big day. This is reason enough to choose a perfect as well as formal hairstyle much before the actual wedding day so as to allow the hairstylist to get it right as well as be able to make any changes that are required before the wedding day.

Style books can give you ideas of how to wear your hair and make up at formal events and are a good starting point to select the perfect wedding hair style. Before selecting a particular hair style, make sure that it also compliments the wedding dress in terms of style, era as well as cut of the dress. The bride should also consider how the rest of the wedding party are going to wear their hair and make up, whether long or short, curly or straight. Decisions such as this go a long way to helping making the day perfect.

Co-coordinating the wedding hair styles or how you wear your hair and make up at formal events with those of the wedding party or other guests does not mean having to choose exactly the same styles but the look should compliment each member’s personality, hair texture as well as facial structure.

The wedding hair style and how you wear your hair and make up at other important formal events is certainly the most important part of the entire outfit and is often the first thing that others notice. The hardest part may be finding the ideal wedding hair style, and brides-to-be are often lost and unsure about which style is the best for them. However, magazines such Wedding Magazine as well as tons of others that can be found on the shelves of local bookstores will help.

Deciding how to wear your hair and your make up at formal events including a wedding trying to match accessories and colors is a great idea. However, the wedding hair style of the bride can be apart, and can and should be more intricate than those of the other members of the wedding party as it is the brides day and she does not want to be out done by one of the bridesmaids does she?

Wedding Hair Style Tips: Choose Your Wedding Day Hairstyle Carefully


Submitted By: Melissa Burton

Women like to look glamorous, elegant and sexy on their wedding day so they usually take the time to choose an extravagant dress, stunning shoes and make up, and then there is the hair style. Whoa boy! Women usually have a stylist visit them when they are getting ready for the wedding, which costs a fortune, or they visit the parlour early in the morning before their wedding to get their chosen hair style done.

A woman's hair may be her crowning glory, but getting a new 'do' just before a big event in your life can be a major mistake. Plan ahead with any chemical treatments - bleaching, colouring, streaking, perming or straightening - and if you're considering any radical changes in length or style do it at least six to eight weeks before the big event, this way it gives you and your hair time to adjust together and get a “working relationship” on the go.

On your wedding day, hundreds of eyes will be on you, and your chosen wedding hair style can either complete the picture or detract from it. That is why it is so important to choose the perfect formal hairstyle well in advance of the big day so that you and your stylist can get it right and make custom additions to your wedding hair style. Nothing is worse than a hastily crafted coif decided upon only minutes before the ceremony, take the time with your stylist to go over what looks suit you and what looks don’t, obviously avoid the looks that don’t suit you. Larger figures should wear their hair up as this draws attention and slims the face down, slimmer brides should look at curls which accentuate the face and shoulders.

Men may seem as though they don’t care about their wedding hair style and women are none the wiser to it, but in fact the bride groom spends at least 15 minutes making sure all the gel is in the correct plane and he has no sticky up bits!!

A great wedding hair style is crucial, especially for those wedding pictures, make sure it's not some kind of style which is going to fall all over the place or is going to be blown around in high winds! That way you can be sure of looking great in those pictures!
