Planning your dream wedding is an exciting journey, and one of the most important aspects of your big day is your bridal hairstyle. With so many styles to choose from, finding the perfect look that complements your dress and personal style can feel overwhelming. But don’t worry! We’re here to guide you through the process, so that you shine on your special day.

1. Consider Your Dress Style

The first step in choosing your bridal hairstyle is to consider the style of your wedding dress. If you're wearing a classic ball gown, elegant updos or soft curls can create a timeless look. For a bohemian-style dress, loose waves adorned with floral accessories may be the perfect match. Take some time to visualise how different hairstyles will look with your gown, as this will help narrow down your options.

2. Think About Your Wedding Theme

Your wedding theme plays a significant role in your hairstyle choice. A beach wedding may call for a relaxed, beachy look, while a formal ceremony may require a more polished style. Incorporate elements of your theme into your hairstyle for a cohesive look. For example, if you're having a vintage-themed wedding, consider retro hairstyles like finger waves or a classic chignon.

3. Factor in Your Hair Type

Your natural hair type can greatly influence your hairstyle choices. If you have fine hair, you may want to consider hairstyles that add volume, such as soft curls or textured updos. Conversely, if you have thick hair, you can experiment with more intricate styles, like braids or twisted updos. If you’re looking to enhance your hair’s length or volume, hair extensions can be a fantastic solution. They provide the perfect way to achieve the length and fullness you desire without the commitment.

4. Explore Different Styles

When it comes to bridal hairstyles, the options are nearly endless. Here are some stunning hairstyle ideas you might love:

Loose Waves: Perfect for a laid-back or beach wedding, loose waves give a soft and romantic feel. Pair them with floral accessories for a boho look.

5. Try Out Hair Extensions

If you're dreaming of a specific hairstyle but your natural hair doesn’t quite fit the bill, hair extensions can be your best friend. Whether you want to add length, volume, or both, extensions allow you to achieve the perfect look without waiting for your hair to grow. Clip-in extensions are a popular choice for brides since they’re easy to apply and remove, giving you flexibility on your big day.

6. Schedule a Trial Run

Once you've narrowed down your hairstyle options, it's essential to schedule a trial run with your hairstylist. This will give you the opportunity to see how your chosen hairstyle looks with your dress and make any necessary adjustments. Bring any hair accessories you plan to wear, and don't hesitate to ask for their professional opinion on what styles will work best for you.


7. Keep Comfort in Mind

On your big day, you’ll want to exude comfort and confidence. Ensure that your hairstyle feels secure and that you can move freely. Avoid styles that might cause tension or discomfort, especially if you plan to wear your hair down for the reception. Hair extensions can also help distribute weight evenly, allowing for a comfortable fit while adding beautiful volume or length.

Choosing the perfect bridal hairstyle is an important part of your wedding planning process. By considering your dress style, wedding theme, hair type, and personal preferences, you can find a look that enhances your beauty on your special day. And remember, hair extensions can be a wonderful way to achieve your dream hairstyle, offering versatility and a flawless finish. Take your time, experiment, and enjoy this beautiful journey toward your wedding day!

Everything you need to know about Superior Hair Halo Extensions

  Our Halo hair extensions are an easy 3 step process to achieve your most beautiful hair desires. They’re very straightforward and easy to use, especially if you’re on the go or are a first-time extension user. Halo extensions are essentially a thin invisible nylon wire that sits on the top of the hair and are secured by clip ins on both sides of the head.  In comparison to clip in hair extensions they don’t require as much time to install as there’s less clips to secure. Our Halo extensions weigh 180 grams, come in a range of 26 different colors and are currently only available in the 20” inches. What hair type are they most suitable for? Our halo extensions are most suitable for medium to thick hair, and hair length that is slightly passed the shoulders.  Is it secure?  To make sure you have the right fit, the nylon string comes in 6 different sizes: xs, s, m, l, xl, xxl. Choose the right size of string for you so that it fits snug to your crown and doesn’t fall off. Be wary not to fit one that’s too tight either. Aside from the string, you also have clip ins on the side of your halo piece to keep it even more secure.  The 3 Simple Steps to installing your Superior Hair Halo Extension: Step 1: Prepare your hair With a tail comb or even just your finger section the crown of your head and clip it away on the top of your head to keep and hair from falling into your face.Step 2: Install the Halo PiecePlace your halo piece around the section you’ve parted on your crown. Make sure the nylon string is nice and snug; if it isn’t snug or is too tight you might have to change the size of your wire. Secure the halo piece with the clip in attached on each side of the head. Step 2: Install the Halo Piece Place your halo piece around the section you’ve parted on your crown. Make sure the nylon string is nice and snug; if it isn’t snug or is too tight you might have to change the size of your wire. Secure the halo piece with the clip in attached on each side of the head.   Step 3: Install the side pieces Now, if you’ve come to this step, you may find that you don’t necessarily want more volume in the front which is totally fine. You can skip this step. But if you do want more volume at the front to match back, you can use the additional clip ins. Secure the clips ins on each side of the head, keeping in line with nylon wire. You’re all done now! Make sure to brush out to blend all the pieces and style however you want!

Men’s Hair Topper Style Tips for a Natural Looking Hair System

There are plenty of ways men can tackle thinning hair. One of them is with hair toppers. While wearing a hair topper may seem unnatural initially, the right styling strategies can make yours appear effortless and natural. At Superior Hair, we ensure you never lose self-confidence while wearing our hair toppers.Hair toppers require just as much styling as real human hair. That's why we offer hair replacement systems made from 100% human hair, giving you the flexibility to try many hair topper styles. Here are our top tips for styling our men’s hair topper systems so you can achieve the best, most natural, and discreet hair solution. Stick to air dryingWhile it can be tempting to dry your hair faster after a shower, heated styling tools can damage your hair strands. Whether styling synthetic or natural hair systems, we recommend air drying or using lukewarm water to wet set curls to keep them looking healthy and softer for longer. Use a specialty brush or combMost men manage to go about their day without brushing their hair. But you’d be amazed just by how much brushing can do to bring out your hair’s lustrous shine. Brushing your hair can significantly reduce frizz and improve hair texture. Invest in a specialty brush or comb that effectively smoothens out and detangles hair without pulling. A soft boar bristle brush contains natural sebum, the same oil produced by the scalp, that acts as a natural conditioner you can evenly distribute by brushing your hair.   Invest in good styling productsAfter brushing, you want to make sure the style stays that way. To keep your hair firmly in place and looking fresh for longer is through styling products designed to keep your hair hold its shape! Remember, human hair systems such as hair toppers do not moisturise the same way as your hair. Therefore, choose moisturising and alcohol-free products to prevent unnecessary dryness and damage.   Add some colourIf you want to try something new, why not mix things up by changing your hair colour? Human hair systems are far easier to colour than synthetic hair strands. Plus, synthetic hair strands can only be darkened, not lightened. On the other hand, human hair toppers go through the same hair dying procedure as normal hair so even with a change of colour or variance in colour blending, you can still achieve the most natural-looking coloured hair. Professional stylists can help you dye or colour a human hair system to achieve the best results.   Shop the best hair toppers in NZ at Superior Hair Give yourself the confidence boost you need with high-quality hair systems that make every day a good hair day!
