Making sure your hair is at its peak condition is key when it comes to creating your desired look, whether you’re thinking of embracing your natural texture or glamming things up with waves or curls. Using the right shampoo and conditioner for your hair type is essential, followed by a protein spray to help nourish your hair and a deep conditioning treatment once a fortnight before the big day. For the best possible hold, I like to layer a few lightweight products to create a natural look that will hold all day. For maximum holding power, volume powder applied at the roots and some backcombing will give amazing control – this is excellent for the gorgeous Hollywood waves. When going for a more natural wave or curl, don’t overuse products as this can create a stiff and uncomfortable look. If you’re worried about curls dropping, a couple of strips of clip-in extensions can help. When choosing a veil, I always advise against one with a bulky plastic comb. A smaller metal comb will be easier to hold in place with the help of a couple of grips and a bit of backcombing – plus it’s a lot easier to remove.
