7 Tips for
Wedding and Honeymoon Hair
Metro
Now
that you've chosen a wedding date, it's time to start the
countdown that is wedding planning. Many brides-to-be give
reception sites and details top priority but forget to devote
the same consideration to bridal hair styles.
Between scheduling, fittings and samplings, it can be easy to
forget about hair care and wedding day preparation. To remind
brides of the importance of this wedding day accessory, ISO,
creators of Innovative Styling Options for hair texture, offers
these easy hair-care pointers.
1. Apart from being blessed with great hair genes, beautiful
hair can also be the result of the masterful hands of a good
stylist. If you do not have a winning relationship with your
stylist, now is 
the
time to seek out a new one. When you are comfortable with your
stylist talk early on about what you envision for wedding day
hair and schedule a practice run-through.
2. Don't skip haircuts because you want long hair for your
wedding. Regular cuts are essential to eliminating dead ends
that can look dull and flyaway. Trims can also refresh the shape
of your hair and make it easier to manipulate into your
preferred wedding style. Plus, hair just looks and feels
healthier with regular trims.
3. You don't want to try drastic cuts or color options too close
to the wedding, where you may not be able to fix a faux pas if
the look isn't to your liking. Rather, experiment with color or
texture a few months in advance of the wedding so you'll have
time to tweak the look toward your desired finished product. To
maintain color, remember to protect hair from harmful sunrays.
Try a color-preserving serum like ISO Color Preserve infused
with a proprietary Solar Seal complex, a sun-activated polymer
that protects hair color by shielding UVA and UVB rays.
4. Many brides-to-be desire soft, free-flowing waves, or
pulled-up looks with a few escaping curly tendrils. But not
everyone is blessed with a head of curls. If your hair needs a
texture boost, consider one of ISO's five state-of-the-art,
damage-free texture options. These are not the perms and body
waves of your youth Ñ there are no side effects of frizz or
poodle curls involved. These innovative texturizers consistently
deliver damage-free, predictable results, regardless of
individual hair type and condition, including fine, previously
permed, highlighted or bleached hair. For those seeking a
temporary new look that washes out in 20 shampoos Ñ just in time
for a return trip from your honeymoon & ISO Nextureª helps you
achieve just that. For more information, visit

5. Wedding hair may involve intricate up-dos, hair extensions or
pulled-back locks. But too much tension on the hair follicle for
a prolonged period of time with tight braids or extensions can
actually pull hair out by the roots. Try ISO's Daily Finish to
hold style with minimum tension. Release your hair as soon as
possible after your wedding day.
6. Honeymoons often involve escapes to tropical paradises. Hot,
humid temperatures can cause even the best-behaved hair to
frizz. Practice easy, casual pulled-back looks that will help
tame hair. ISO Daily Detail Putty helps to tame flyaways for an
effortless ponytail in seconds! Don't forget to rinse hair
thoroughly with cool water if you've been swimming in a
chlorinated pool or the salty ocean and can't shower immediately
after. Otherwise, you may end up with a head of frizzy, sticky
hair.
7. Always be prepared for the unexpected, which may include a
few errant locks that occur on your wedding day. Pack an
emergency kit stocked with a brush or comb, hairspray, bobby
pins or barrettes, anti-frizz or shine serum, and any other
necessities you can think of. Try ISO Daily Spray Wax to smooth
flyaways in a cinch. It's also a good idea to have a backup pair
of panty hose, safety pins and even a travel sewing kit just in
case the unexpected is a wardrobe malfunction and not a hair
emergency.
