How Should You Choose a Natural Wedding Hair Style?
According to celebrity hairstylist and author, Monee Everett, your wedding day is the day where you should jazz up your natural hair — you know, do something a little different from your ordinary twist out, or your french plaits. "I rarely recommend brides to keep their regular day-to-day styles because they aren't wearing their regular day to day clothes," says the stylist. "A formal gown and formal headpiece calls for a large elaborate style — nothing says elegance like a beautiful elaborate natural hairstyle. A wedding is one of the times in life that your hairstyle should project formal elegance."
