He is going to share some expert tips on prepping for the big day when it comes to hair, skin, and makeup for the bride and groom. He has a huge celebrity clientele, has worked in all the fashion capitals of the world and now he's going to share his best tips with you.
BRIDES
1. Time Your Haircut- Five to seven days before the big day, get to the salon. Haircuts always look best when it's had time to slightly grow in after getting it cut. A color mishap could happen, so give yourself time to make any necessary adjustments.
2. Don't Wash Hair the Day Of- If you have dry hair, do not wash your hair the day of the wedding; your natural oils will help create a shinier, more manageable style. If your hair is normal to oily, your best bet is to wash it the same day.
3. Time to Set- Make sure that your hair has time to set properly, as your style needs to last all day. Too often, styles fall flat because they haven't been set long enough. Always keep dry shampoo or baby powder on hand to maintain your style and volume throughout the day. Hugs can be an up-do's worst enemy; keep bobby pins in your or a bridesmaid's purse to keep loose strands at bay.
4. Stay True to You- Try to keep hair and make-up as modern and fresh, yet true to yourself as possible. Don't deviate too much from what you would do on a daily basis. It's not a time to start experimenting with a new look. Remember, you will be looking at these pictures ten years from now, and you want to be able to recognize yourself. Think of those poor brides from the 80s with blue eyeshadow and red lipstick on their big day - It's almost like looking at a clown!
5. Avoid Break Outs- If you tend to break out easily, make sure to wash your pillowcase often, as bacteria, make-up, and styling products can cause your skin to act up.
6. Lip Color- If you opt for color on your lip, go for using a matte or "long-lasting" lipstick, as the satin and gloss finishes can cause a messy situation at the altar.
7. Time your Facial- Don't forget that getting a facial too close to the big day can be a disaster as well. Facials can create blemishes or redness as the skin is refreshing itself. You need to give your skin at least a week to adjust.
GROOMS
1. Schedule your Cut- Try to get a trim five-seven days before the big day. Freshly cut hair never looks as good as slightly grown out hair. Add a facial the week before your wedding day too. Not only will this get rid of impurities and blackheads, it will get rid of dead skin cells that make getting a close shave difficult.
2. Grooming Products- If you don't already use high-quality men's grooming products, start as soon as you can. These will make a huge difference, not only for your wedding day, but will make you look younger for the long haul. By using higher-quality shaving products well before the big day, you'll alleviate or diminish razor rash from occurring.
3. Go to a Pro- Treat yourself to a professional shave at a barbershop the day before the wedding. Not only will this relax you, but will give you the closest possible shave for that first kiss with your new wife. If razor rash is unavoidable, use a medicated concealer that will not only camouflage it for the thousands of pictures you'll be in, but will accelerate the healing.
