The Natural Look

In 2010, we see a return to natural beauty with wedding hairstyles being looser and less structured than years past. Long hair becomes longer and fuller allowing for some loose waves to add dimension to the look.

The free-flowing natural look has its place in this year's short hairstyles as well. The hair should allow for movement and playfulness and it should have texture in the form of layers as opposed to a one-length cut.

Natural Colour, too

In keeping with 2010's quest for natural looks, your hair colour should reflect this trend as well. Try not to stray too far from your natural hair colour. This is always good advice for brides as your wedding hair colour should only enhance what you already have not change it. Always remember, you want to recognize yourself in those wedding day photos 30 years from now!

Most Popular 2010 Style?

• it's the chignon (hair pinned or gathered at the nape of the neck) that wins big
• as well as hairstyles (up or down) that include braids.
