5 Wedding Hair Ideas For 2023

The wedding season will soon be here and one of the key dilemmas facing brides up and down the country never changes: what shall I do with my hair? The hairstyle you choose for your big day may be influenced by the style of your dress, the overall theme or vibe of your wedding, and what type of hair you have.

The past few years have seen a lot of flux and change in the way we get married, and this means that there are more choices than ever before. There’s no right or wrong when it comes to how you want to style your wedding, but if you are in need of a little hair-spiration, here are a few ideas.

The return of the updo
A high updo was once the go-to wedding hairstyle, but more relaxed and informal trends have overtaken it in the past few years. However, since Kim Kardashian adopted the so-called ‘Barbie updo’ last year, the style has made a comeback. It is not the more formal 1990s version, but deliberately looser and messier.

The style particularly suits longer hair with a fringe or shorter pieces that can be pulled out to frame the face. Hot irons can be used to create waves to add some movement and texture. It is a style that can easily be perfected with a hair up lesson. It’s perfect if you want to show off the neckline of your dress or showcase a statement necklace. 

The side sweep
For a twist on the classic loose waves, go for side swept curls. This is perfect if you want your hair length and colour to be displayed to full effect but also want to look polished. It also gives you a chance to add a decorative piece of hair jewellery on the swept back side or showcase a long earring.

The loose bun
A simple and elegant bun is a classic and easy to wear hairstyle that works for anyone with medium or long hair. If you want all the emphasis to be on your dress and jewellery, then this no-fuss hair will look sophisticated enough to carry you through the day. You can also dress it up with a statement hairpiece. 

Centre parting
If you want to wear your hair down but also want a practical style that won’t be falling into your eyes at inconvenient times, then a simple centre parting that is tucked behind the ears is a great choice. It works well any hair length and type and suits most face shapes. 

This style is ideal for showing off your facial features and ensuring all that careful wedding makeup works hard in your photographs. It also allows you to display some statement earrings if you choose.

A low chignon
The low chignon is a classic wedding style that works well for short to medium length hair. It’s less formal and sleek than a bun, looking at once elegant yet bohemian. It can be kept simple or dressed up with a pretty barrette clip to add the finishing touch.
