Wedding Hair and Makeup Ideas to Inspire Your Look
Tousled Waves & Soft Glam
This classic tousled hair look is a great shoulder-length wedding hairstyle. For this look, Kylee Hudson used a GHD Classic Curl – 1″ Curling Iron along with plenty of Moroccan Oil Dry Texture Spray to create that effortless vibe. The makeup was kept minimal, with dark brown liner instead of black and individual lashes to add an ounce of drama. Simple yet stunning!

Frensh Twist & Neutral Tones
A modern French twist is perfectly irresistible! With some face-framing pieces in front to soften the look, this updo is perfect for the bride who wants to party all night and not worry about her hair. Makeup was focused on neutral tones to enhance the model’s natural beauty, giving the look a soft, elegant vibe. Gentle contouring and a light blush added just the right amount of definition. The eyes were subtly enhanced with warm shadows and a bit of mascara, while the lips were kept simple with a nude, glossy finish.

Edgy Hairstyle & Statement Eyebrows
This beauty look is perfect for the bride who is a bit more edgy or wears a hat normally. It’s such a fun combo, pairing a bold accessory like this hat with a short, sassy hairstyle! This hairstyle was created using Big Sexy Texturizing Powder Play to add fullness at the ends so the hat could accentuate the short hair. For makeup, the focus was all on the bride’s incredible eyebrows and striking facial structure, with soft pink lips and bright eyeshadow to complete the look.

Sleek Bun & Muted Eyebrows

Kylee used the Patrick Ta Blush Duo to create a heavier blush, giving the face a fresh, sculpted glow.
