Radiant Bridal Hair: Unlock Your Perfect Look
When it comes to your wedding day, your hairstyle is just as important as your dress and makeup. Brides and their bridal parties often spend hours browsing inspiration photos, picturing flawless looks that will shine through every momentβfrom the walk down the aisle to the final dance. At Makeup In The 702, our experienced team is dedicated to making those bridal hair dreams a reality, ensuring every bride and bridal party member feels stunning and photo-ready until the very end.
This guide is designed with weddings in mind, highlighting what every bride should know when planning the perfect hairstyle for herself and her closest friends.
Not All Bridal Hair is Meant for Curls
Many brides envision soft, cascading curls for their big day. While this is a beautiful and popular style, it’s crucial to understand your hairβs natural abilities. Certain hair typesβespecially those that are fine, straight, or heavyβstruggle to hold curls through hours of celebration and photography, particularly in the Las Vegas climate.
Our expert bridal stylists will honestly evaluate your hair and help guide you toward styles that are both flattering and reliable. This honest approach ensures your look lasts through ceremony, photos, and the receptionβso you can focus on celebrating.

The Longevity of a Bridal Updo
If βlasting all nightβ is at the top of your bridal wishlist, consider an updo. Timeless and elegant, updos are the go-to choice for brides who want their style to be as flawless at the send-off as it was at the ceremony. Updos also work beautifully for bridesmaids, keeping hair secure throughout all the festivities.
Whether youβre envisioning a sleek chignon, a romantic braid, or a voluminous bun, updos provide reliable hold, reducing the worries of wilting curls or frizz. The result? Gorgeous wedding photos and memories that capture your styleβperfectlyβin every moment.
Extensions: The Secret to Gorgeous Bridal Volume
Wondering how those bridal magazine looks achieve such breathtaking length and fullness? The answer is usually extensions. For both brides and their bridal parties, extensions are the key to creating dramatic, head-turning wedding day hair.
Investing in high-quality extensions is non-negotiable. Avoid synthetic options at all costsβthey resemble plastic doll hair, can melt under heat styling tools, and will never seamlessly blend with your natural hair color. Similarly, non-virgin hair (which has been dyed or chemically processed) is often weak and damaged, making it a poor choice for your big day.
At Makeup In The 702, we recommend Remy extensions, the gold standard in hair quality. Remy extensions are made from real, unprocessed hair that lies in a natural direction, meaning they can be flat ironed, curled, or blown out just like your own hair. These premium extensions hold styles beautifully, blend effortlessly, and offer a polished, natural finish that will amplify your bridal aesthetic. Whether you desire mermaid waves, fuller updos, or a little extra thickness for a polished look. Extensions give our stylists the flexibility to craft intricate, long-lasting styles that elevate your entire bridal ensemble.
When to Purchase Extensions
The best time to select your extensions is immediately after your final cut and color before the wedding. Timing this decision with your hair trial is crucial for a flawless look. Bringing your extensions to the trial ensures that you and your stylist have plenty of time to plan and perfect your hairstyle with your new additions, leaving no room for last-minute surprises.
