Walk down the aisle feeling and looking flawless with a gorgeous wedding hairstyle. Perfectly matched to your gown, this year’s hair trends are the ultimate way to complete your wedding day look.
Flowing tresses make for an effortlessly romantic wedding hairstyle – and are right on trend. Slick and straight or tumbling in retro fashion, leaving your hair loose is making waves this wedding season.
Pay attention to bridal runways and you’ll notice letting your hair flow isn’t the only way to hit a fashion high note. Updos are also among the hottest bridal hairstyles of the year - but not the traditional styles of years gone by. Instead, 2017 is all about tousled topknots, textured ponytails and wispy chignons.
Find your dream bridal look with these gorgeous wedding hairstyles for 2017.

Micro braids
Best for: Off-the-shoulder dress
Tiny plaits have been making their way into hairstyles everywhere in the last 12 months, making a leap from festivals to weddings. Weave them into a half updo or use them to embellish a loose textured down do. If you’ve chosen a Bardot-style wedding dress, this bridal hairstyle is perfect for balancing out your look.
Tip: For a natural vibe, simply press the ghd platinum® styler at the end of your micro braids to keep them in place, rather than using hair ties.
