However, one things for certain; Meghan Markle is stunning, and her wedding day was no exception. So if you're preparing for your own wedding, or if you just want to class up your hair does, here are 5 Meghan Markle inspired wedding hairstyles.
1. The Classic Updo
If you're looking to copy Meghan Markle's weddng hairstyle, the classic up do is the way t go, as this is the look Meghan chose for her wedding day. This hairstyle is timeless and original and perfect for holding in veils as well as other clips and crowns.
An updo is a low maintenance style that will have you feeling confident walking down the aisle amongst either a huge crowd, or just your closest family and friends.
For beautiful, luscious waves that frame your face, use the VS Unbound Cordless Auto Curler to curl the front sections of your face as well as the ends, then secure them in a loose bun for a classic look. This automatic curler has LCD control that will let you choose your curl style from tight curls to luxurious waves. This rechargeable styler also gives up to 45 minutes of cord-free styling, so it's perfect for touch ups through the day.
We think this messy but classy ponytail would look amazing on Meghan’s hair, especially with the added bling of a crown!
To create this look, curl your hair with an automatic curling tool.
- Separate your hair into two sections, one smaller top section and one larger bottom section.
- For the top section, tease slightly for volume and then pull back and twist at the crown of the head and pin.
- Then, create a loose ponytail under the pin and tie with elastic. Carefully pull out two strands on either side of the ponytail so that they frame the face and curl.
- Grab a small piece from the bottom of the ponytail and wrap around the elastic until it is covered and then pin underneath the pony.
- Add more curls to the ponytail for volume and spray with hairspray for all-day hold.
2. The Half-Up Half-Down
If there’s any day to fulfil your childhood dreams of being a real-life princess, it’s the day of your wedding. The half up-half down is another timeless hairstyle, and it's a great way to let your hair hang down but still add a veil or other accessories into the hair. To achieve your own Meghan Markle half up half down hairdo shown above, We would recommend curling your hair with our 25mm Ceramic Curler to add some bounce before sectioning and securing with an elastic. If you or any of your bridesmaids are doing your own hair and are looking for a non-complex option, this is a great option.
