secret to getting this look
Just like the perfect wedding dress,
this look is all about shape. To start,
hair is curled, set and divided into
two sections. For the first section,
curls are gently separated and
brought to the back of head and
pinned in a half up look. The lower
section is secured in a ponytail
underneath top section with
remaining hair twisted around. If
more volume is desired, add hair
extensions. Side sweeping bangs and
accessories are great for completing
this look.

Start with Redken Fresh Curl
Shampoo and Conditioner. Apply
Redken Ringlet 07 to wet hair to
revive curls, add definition, and
control frizz. Separate curls with
Redken Matte Sponge for volume and
Redken Vinyl Glam for intense shine.
If using a curling iron, use Redken
Hot Sets 22 for thermal protection.
secret to getting this look
From start to finish, this look is all
about embracing the natural shape of
your curls. After wash, gently towel
dry before diffusing on low pressure.
Curls are sectioned off vertically
beginning at the nape of the head
and working up. If more definition is
desired use a curling iron. Once curls
are set, pin one side of hair securely
and allow the other half to fall softly
around the face. Garnish with a shiny
accessory or seasonal floral for a hint
of sparkle or color.

For flexible definition, begin with
Phyto Shine Defining Wax to sculpt
and hydrate hair. To intensify volume
and add lasting hold, apply Sebastian
Shaper Hairspray. Use Moroccanoil
Luminous Hairspray to polish.
secret to getting this look
You are more of a traditionalist,
meaning your hair style should be
soft yet elegant on your big day. For
a polished updo, start by curling hair
with a 1-inch iron to create barrel
curls from top to bottom. Section
hair in half horizontally and tease
hair at the crown of the head. Use
hair extensions for additional volume.
Take bottom curls and make a simple
low bun. Gather top portion to create
a second bun and use pick to lightly
tease. For the classic bride look, this
style is great when paired with a veil,
hair jewels, or a clip.

Redken All Soft Shampoo and
Conditioner. Perfect your blow out by
applying Redken Velvet Gelatine 07

secret to getting this look
You’re a trend setter and know what’s
hip before it hits the streets. So, on
your wedding day there’s no question
that your look will be contemporary
from head to toe. Start off smooth,
by blow drying straight. Divide
hair into small sections and tease
beginning at the top of head. Section
hair in half from ear to ear and secure
bottom half in low ponytail. Tease
ponytail and then smooth to create a
classic chignon. Softly comb the top
of head to smooth hair and create
texture around the face. For extra
elegance, dress up this updo with a
feather, flower, or birdcage veil.

the delicate look
works well for
Long and layered hair
look suited for
Indoor or outdoor weddings during
the spring, summer or fall
featured product
To prep hair, apply Phyto Shine
Defining Wax throughout for a
moveable hold. To separate and
set curls, use Sebastian Hairspray
Shaper. For a final touch, spray with
Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray
for shine.
secret to getting this look
This look captures the romance of
your wedding. The key is keeping
your hair flowy yet sophisticated
and in place well after the reception.
Begin by curling hair using a 1-inch
iron to create barrel curls. Pin curls
and allow to cool. Slowly take
pins out to let curls fall and gently
separate. Hair should be pulled back
from the face and bundled around an
accessory, such as a flower or veil, to
accentuate.

idal makeup
the youthful bride
Today is a one of life’s greatest moments and to the man walking you down the
aisle, you’ll always be his little girl. Highlight your fresh face and play up your
soft features. Use a bronzer for slight intensity and false eyelashes to make
your subtle eye makeup stand out.

the starry-eyed bride
Your wedding day should be out of this world, so add a touch of shimmer
for a look that is totally cosmic. To achieve a natural feel while channeling
the classic smoky eye, harmonize shades of deep plum rather than grays or
black. For an eye-popping look, try metallic shadows and nude lip shades.
Add a light shimmer to highlight and contour your cheeks.

the hollywood bride
Like a starlet on the red carpet, you’re in for a day of photos and the spotlight
to be on you. So strike a pose and make sure your best features shine through.
For a dose of glamour, wear false eyelashes paired with a soft shadow. Makeup
application is all about enhancing your natural yet unique beauty.

the glowing bride
You’ve found the one. You couldn’t be happier and it shows. You and your
makeup are absolutely radiant. For strong eyes but a touch of shine, line
the upper lids with black pencil and smudge into metallic brown and gold
shadows. Contour cheeks by blending a light bronzer with a subtle rose blush.
Add a hint of glow to your lips with a soft rose rouge and lots of gloss.

idal makeup
the au natural bride
It’s no secret; your big day required a lot of planning. Although you are filled
with excitement and joy, you’re probably in need of sleep and a day at the
spa. Diminish flaws with highlighting shimmers for a touch of sparkle and
translucent coverage. Keep eyes and lips simple, but use false eyelashes for a
little drama.
