Festive hairstyles with fresh flowers
The ceremonial occasion requires the fair sex to have a special, sophisticated hairstyle. Fresh flowers are a fashionable accessory that can turn even the simplest hairstyle into a festive one. It’s enough to stick a large bud into your loose curls and you’re ready to go to prom.
Wedding wreath with veil
A wedding dress with a wreath on the head in itself creates a laconic and complete look that does not need other accessories. It is often even believed that the crown itself replaces the veil. After all, in essence they symbolize the same thing - the purity and purity of the bride. If you still want to add a veil, choose a simple single-layer one. Medium length or long tulle is best.
By choosing a crown made from fresh or artificial flowers, feathers or ribbons, you automatically fall into the group of original and non-standard brides. This accessory will certainly make you stand out from the many other newlyweds who will meet you on your wedding day in the registry office and parks at a photo shoot. Be prepared for increased attention from guests, other couples and passers-by.
Tips for using fresh flowers
- It is necessary to pin the buds into the hair after using styling products (varnishes, mousses, gels);
- Flowers should be treated with a special product before use. This will help them keep their fresh look longer;
- the buds, no matter how much you want, wither, so it’s better to keep a few fresh ones in stock;
- It’s better to choose the color scheme of scented jewelry not only to match your clothes, but also your hair tone. Bright colors suit brunettes well, but for blondes it is better to replace the scarlet rose with delicate shades of white, pink, lilac;
- fragrant hair is good, but a strong smell can give you a headache;
When choosing flowers, it is better to give preference to those that do not stain clothes and do not shed pollen. It is worth considering their durability. It is advisable to choose more persistent buds.
Headband with flowers for the bride's hairstyle
Floral headbands are closely related to wedding wreaths, but they have a number of advantages. It's smaller, but also more mobile. The headband allows you to change the position of the flowers in the styling. The headband can be placed at the edge of the hairline or raised closer to the crown. Styling with a veil and flowers goes well with the headband and looks great in the photo.
But, when choosing a headband as a decoration, remember that if a girl has a round or square face, then you should not attach flowers to her temples. It’s better to concentrate them in the center of the wreath, otherwise the face will visually expand and may not turn out very well in the photo.
An excellent option for short girls would be a headband with large flowers located closer to the top of the head. It will visually lengthen the face and give the bride a few centimeters of height.
How to prepare a living flower yourself
- First you need to cut off the bud. We use a sharp knife and make a cut at an angle of 45 degrees. Important: the length of the remaining stem should be equal to the bud.
- Place the flower in water with a special product. You can buy it or prepare it at home. To do this, add an aspirin tablet and a pinch of sugar to 0.5 liters of water.
- We style the hair and fix it with hairspray if necessary. Now take a cotton swab and dip it in the solution where the flower stood. We wrap the cut and bottom of the trunk with a swab.
- To give strength and an aesthetic appearance, we wrap the area with a cotton swab with floral tape.
Options for attaching jewelry to the bride's hair
Artificial or fresh flowers that will decorate the hairstyle at the roots are secured with hairpins or bobby pins. A thin silicone rubber band is wound around the stem of each bud. A hairpin or bobby pin is hooked onto it and the flower is inserted into the hair, hiding the attachment point with a strand.
With a wreath, everything is simpler: it is placed on the top of the head without securing it with anything.
If your hair is not thick enough to hide your hairpins, you can use leaves or baby's breath (small, delicate buds).
If flowers will decorate vertical strands, they are tied to the curls with silicone elastic bands.
The wreath can be secured with hairpins, bobby pins, and small combs.
For hairstyles with large elements (bunches, thick braids, voluminous buns), it is advisable to choose large flowers.
Stylists recommend decorating thin short strands or long curls with small, elegant flowers. Buds should be used sparingly. An abundance of plants can hide all the beauty of a wedding hairstyle and turn the bride’s head into a kind of flower bed.
