Bridal hair -do

Tips on hair-do's in Aruba
Hair is the most important thing to a girl, hair makes you beautiful and confident and when planning your Aruba wedding hair should be #1 on your special day.Tips on Aruba hair-do's.
1.) Hair looks great in an up do style, reason being is that many brides get to the alter and during the ceremony she is constantly brushing her hair away from her face or just ignoring it and ruining every picture with her eye covered in hair. If you choose to where your hair down which I love as well since I have curly long hair than I would recommend putting up the sides and letting your hair blow in the wind and have no problems.
2.) Wear lots of hairspray, many brides do their own hair or have someone in the wedding party do it, that’s fine and dandy but you have to realize that Aruba has an awesome wind and you do not feel the humidity. What happens with humidity? Yes your hair will fall back to wear you began after you blow dried it.
Fine hair , I suggest to tease your hair in place and use gel or mouse to make it sturdy and every curl you make with the iron to hairspray it while on the iron and after you take it out re-spray again. Within an hour your hair will relax in place and then you can continue with putting on your veil and having your hair stay in place. A great product that I believe in and reasonably priced is Sebastian Laminates body thickening polish which works great to create body and shines your hair. Try it at home before doing it in Aruba on your wedding day.
For curly thick hair (which is what I have) I suggest to mousse your hair and maybe use an anti frizz such as Redken glass or Sebastian Laminates drops liquid polish or Paul Mitchell soft style sculpting hair gel to get rid of the fuzzies and make your hair shine and look perfect. I tell my brides to let the curls flow and not to hairspray it to the point of no movement.
I personally was a hairdresser back in the days and I dealt with many brides and I can assure you that I have walked into rooms for pre ceremony photos and found a few brides crying because they do not like their hair. I recommend finding a hairdresser at your resort or any local hair salon and doing a pre-session to make sure that the hairdresser gives you the style you like. 3) Hair Salon-If you choose to get your hair done by a local in Aruba that's great. There are many professional hairdressers who will come to your resort and do the entire bridal party so you don't have to run around. Many resorts have their own hairdressers to use to. Bring in a sample or a ideas they can work with and if you plan on putting your hair up with a rhinestone clip than buy it at your local Sally's or Claire in your hometown. Give at least 30 minutes per person, if you are doing makeup and hair at least an hour. Get started early at around 1 or 2 pm so you can relax and have everyone ready when the time comes.
Well I hope these ideas helped, happy planning
