Half Up Half Down Wedding Hair with Tiara
One of the most sought after wedding hairstyles is the half up half down. There are many bridal hair accessories that work stunningly well with this style - here, we're featuring some of our beautiful tiaras from statement pearl embellished designs to sparkling crystal tiaras for the princess bride.
A sleek wedding bun is the ultimate choice for the classic bride. We love a low bun styled with a gorgeous hair comb at the back in the center, or to one side. Loose curls at the front add additional softness and frame the face beautifully. Finish your look with our best selling Tulippa hair comb to lend a touch of floral beauty to your bridal updo.
Perfect for the modern bride a wedding ponytail is an elegant choice and so versatile. Whether you favor a slicked-back style or a loose pony with wispy strands, you can acheive so many different looks. Some look best with no adornment, whilst others look utterly gorgeous with dainty pins or combs scattered throughout.
Curly wedding hair down is more popular than ever with many brides opting for a more relaxed, yet still glam look for their big day. Statement tiaras are all the rage right now and suit so many different bridal styles. We absolutely adore loose curly hair accented with a modern bridal headband or romantic crown - so chic!
Romantic, modern and effortlessly pretty, half up wedding hairstyles are beautiful looks that will neer go out of style! Whether you're a Grecian bride, beach babe or totally timeless, half up half down is an unbelievably versatile style. Our Kalani half halo headpiece featured here is a stunning choice for a rustic affair.
Too much hair to know what to do with? The good news is, there are plenty of beautiful wedding hairstyles for long hair and accessories to enchance the different looks. Embrace the length and leave loose with a stunning tiara or headband, pin the front back and some waves or wear in a gorgeous updo to show off the back of your beloved dress. A hollywood wave is a stunning choice for the glamorous and elegant bride.
Obviously you are a little more limited with the hairstyles you can acheive with short hair, but that's not to say your locks can't look fabulous! Depending on how short your hair is, some bridal updo's can still be acheived. A simple half up half down style can look adorable accented with pretty hair pins, or keep it down and let a beautiful headband take center stage. Lightweight hair vines and halos are a popular choice for an effortless, boho feel.
The chignon bun is an elegant, formal wedding hairstyle, traditionally worn at the nape of the neck. Chignon meaning a 'bun' in French, is a hairstyle caharacterized by wrapped hair on the back of the head. A chignon can be beautifully intricate or sleek and simple - we love how they come to life when styled with one of our gorgeous bridal hair accessories.
Adding texture to a bridal updo or half up hairstyle is a great way to incject thickness into thin hair. If you're wanting to keep your hair down, a wedding headband or lightweight hair vine is an excellent choice. Wedding hair clips are generally the preffered accessory over combs as sometimes a comb can simply slip out of fine hair, although this can be overcome if secured well with pins.
Wearing flowers in your bridal hairstyle creates a soft and romantic look. A gorgeous accessory option for brides, bridesmaids and even flower girls, choose from dainty flower hair pins, flower crowns and floral combs to lend a touch of natural beauty to your wedding hair.
You may choose to wear your wedding hair with a veil, and you can style it with a headpiece in many different ways. Wear a beautiul embellished comb at the top of your veil, or pair with a bridal headband for added drama. Make a showstopping entrance with a drop veil and wedding crown, or team with a sparkling tiara for a more traditional bridal look.
You can't get anymore timeless than a sleek bridal updo with an exquisite crystal tiara. Worn by all the Royal princesses, a glistening crystal crown is the most regal wedding hair accessory a bride can choose. A must-have for a fairytale wedding!
If you have medium length hair, then the world is your oyster when it comes to picking your wedding hairstyle. Medium length hair is a dream to work with when creating beautiful updos, and looks gorgeously glam when down, without covering too much of your beautiful gown!
We would recommend that you buy your bridal hair piece in time for your hair trial. This will help you to see your chosen hair accessory as it will look on the big day and help your hairdresser to know what they’ll be doing on the actual day, too!
The type of style and design you choose will also depend on your wedding dress and veil. For example, a brow band might not work with the type of wedding veil you choose. Similarly, a hair vine might not be visible beneath your veil. Because of this, we’d recommend purchasing your bridal hair piece once you’ve made those final decisions and get it in time for your wedding dress fitting to help you see how it will look on your wedding day.
Bespoke bridal hair pieces may take longer to reach you, so it’s important to give yourself plenty of time. At Lace & Favour, we endeavor to be transparent with our lead times for wedding accessories, with information regarding delivery times featuring in most of our product listings. If you require a product sooner, please contact us. We will try and accommodate shorter turnaround times where we can.
Whether you're looking to wear your bridal hair up or down, with a veil or without, I'm hoping this article has given you lots of ideas and inspiration for your wedding hairstyle. Love Amy x
