Top Bridal Hair Trends in 2021
Due to the rollercoaster ride 2020 has given us, large gatherings may still be on hold depending on the country you are living in. As such, hairstyles and colours that were popular pre-covid have since altered too. House of Ezis has curated a list of top bridal hair trends to exchange your nuptials in, whether you’re looking to go all out or keep things natural.
Curtain Bangs
This year, we see people gravitating towards low-maintenance hairstyles as they are easier to maintain, saving them trips to the salon. Curtain bangs have been trending everywhere since the end of 2020 when it became viral on TikTok and we can see why. Curtain bangs are separated down the middle and swept to each side of the face, mimicking a fanned curtain, framing the face and eyes perfectly. This 70’s hairstyle is making a comeback for obvious reasons: low maintenance. When curtain bangs grow out, they will start to merge into the longer lengths of the hair, while still framing the face. Furthermore, curtain bangs save you a trip down the salon even if they are not open as they are easy to trim at home.
Lived-in Textured Hair
The pandemic has taught all of us to let go our polished selves, where finding a balance between looking presentable and casual is the new norm. Hence, as we grow to be more customary to our natural hair textures, this new habit has found its way to our bridal hairstyles inspo. It is time to embrace simplicity by enhancing your waves, forgoing the extensions by working with the natural textures of your locks for a fuss-free yet sophisticated look.
Regency-inspired Hair Accessories
Thanks to Netflix the hit series Bridgerton which caused a regency-inspired wedding craze, it is definitely not surprising that this period drama has also brought about a new hair trend into 2021. Regency-inspired hair accessories and updo hairstyles will be popular among brides-to-be who are opting for a fairy-tale wedding.
