Wedding Hairstyles
with Boho Chic
If perfectly polished is not
your style, these loose curls
may be just the thing to show
off your relaxed attitude.
So many brides are requesting their hair worn down these days, and Lori and her team of stylists created this look with a relaxed, bohemian style in mind.
Finished with a funky, sparkling comb the look is anything but traditional.
Hair Type
Long, straight or wavy hair will work well for this style. If you have short or thin hair, Lori and her team often use extensions. The Custom 18" Hair Extension Set or the Custom 14" Hair Extension Set are dyed to match your own hair and can be placed in the front, back or sides of your head - wherever you need fullness and length.
Body and Texture
The idea is to give the hair an unstructured, tousled look. Our model, Haleigh has fairly straight hair so ModelBride stylists used a large barrel curling iron all over her head to form ringlets.
Stylists then went back through the hair with a crimping iron here and there. Crimping irons are now available with larger waves and the effect is much more natural than the blown out 'dos of the 1980's!
Tease and Twist
Next, the hair was teased at the crown for some height and fullness then the top layer of hair was smoothed over the teased portion. Lori recommends using a light hand here to maintain some texture.
The top and sides were then gently pulled back, twisted and loosely fastened with bobby pins.
Accessories
For a chic finishing touch, the ModelBride stylists chose the Flamenco Crystal Comb, an updated version of a Spanish peineta. It was placed in the hair at an angle in keeping with the relaxed style.
Haleigh is also wearing the Abigail Crystal Pendant Necklace, a great pairing for a v-neck gown.
