Myth 1: You Should Wear Your Hair in a Certain Style Based on Your Face Shape.

Reality: While it's true that certain hairstyles can complement different face shapes, there are no hard and fast rules. The key to finding the perfect bridal hairstyle lies in selecting a look that makes you feel confident and beautiful, and will wear well throughout the day. Consult with your hairstylist to explore various options and choose a style that accentuates your features and matches your personal style, regardless of your face shape.


Myth 2: Your Makeup Needs to Be Heavy to Look Good in Photos.

Reality: Heavy makeup may have been the norm in the past, but today's bridal beauty trends emphasize a more natural and fresh look. Professional makeup artists know how to enhance your features and create a flawless finish without the need for heavy layers of product. Trust in your artist's expertise and opt for a makeup look that enhances your natural beauty and looks stunning both in person and in photographs.


Myth 3: You Should Wash Your Hair on the Morning of Your Wedding Day.

Reality: Washing your hair on the morning of your wedding day can actually make it more difficult to style, especially if you're opting for an updo. Fresh, clean hair can be too soft and slippery, making it harder for your stylist to achieve the desired look and for your hair to hold its shape throughout the day. Instead, wash your hair the day before and use a lightweight conditioner to ensure it's clean and manageable for styling on the big day.


Myth 4: Bridal Makeup Has to Be Neutral and Boring.

Reality: Gone are the days of one-size-fits-all bridal makeup. Modern brides are embracing a diverse range of makeup looks, from soft and romantic to bold and glamorous. Whether you prefer a classic nude lip and subtle smokey eye or a statement lip and dewy complexion, there are endless possibilities to suit your individual style and wedding theme. Work with your makeup artist to create a customized look that reflects your personality and makes you feel like the best version of yourself.


Myth 5: You Can't Wear Your Glasses with Your Wedding Makeup.

Reality: Glasses can be a stylish and unique accessory on your wedding day, and there's no reason you can't rock them with confidence. Your makeup artist can tailor your makeup look to complement your frames, ensuring that your eyes stand out and your features are beautifully enhanced, whether you wear glasses or not. Embrace your signature style and let your glasses be a part of your bridal look.
