Grab your combs, and bobby pins, and let's get styling!
The first thing that comes to our minds about wedding hairstyles is the symphony of big fancy buns. Yes, buns in particular. You know, classic charms like big hair buns especially the ones with a spongy chignon hiding in there, or maybe the classic tight low-bun. Buns are probably one of the best hairstyles to hold your veil in place without it sliding off. Thanks to all the cushioning for the pins and the comb on the veil.
But our personal favourites are the ones that were the poster child of all hairdos from the mod era! The beehive hairdos and classic bouffant bun.
Let’s talk bouffant!
This souffle-like hairstyle is done with a tease-and-tangle technique and a whole lot of hairspray for it to stay in place.
One of the most popular hairstyles from the 50s and 60s; these lavishly teased bouffants were a favourite among many women in the United States after the First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy, adopted this hairdo in the early 60s.
Soon, hairspray became essential in a woman’s purse and became the nation's number-one beauty aid by 1964. The autocratic European look got an upgrade when the bouffant hairstyle went to new heights with the blend of the beehive hairstyle. Large rollers, gel solutions, and tools went into the cumbersome updo. This soon met its tragic end because of how strenuous the regime was.
But today, realtor hairdos are making a big comeback and the wedding industry is adopting these looks one hairstyle at a time. Long retro waves, vintage updos, pin-up curls, and retro-inspired victory roll updos are all making a full comeback.
