How to Take Care of Your Hair Before Your Wedding Day

Award-Winning Beauty Brand Mogul Monique Rodriguez of MIELLE™ Organics Has a Few Pointers To Achieving Beautiful Wedding Day Tresses

Every woman looks forward to her wedding day! Marrying the love of your life, creating memories with family and friends, and, of course, looking your best! When I say looking your best, I mean from your hair down to your feet. The style of your dress, shoes, manicure, pedicure, makeup, and, of course, a fabulous hairstyle. Everything is well thought out and planned to perfection. After all, this is the day you have been dreaming about since you were a child and it’s finally going to happen! All eyes will be on you, and there is no way this day is not going to be picture perfect.

Planning a wedding can be stressful, but it doesn’t have to be. Being as prepared as possible will elevate your confidence and will give you peace of mind. One thing you can prepare for well in advance is your hair. Here are some helpful hair tips using Mielle’s Mongongo Collection that will take away some of the stress and help you be well prepared for your wedding day:

1. Consult with a stylist: Decide on what hairstyle you want and consult with your stylist. Having a consultation with your stylist in advance sets the foundation for your experience and gives you the confidence that this style will be executed to perfection on your big day. I would also suggest bringing an image of both the hairstyle and a picture of the wedding dress to be used as a reference.

By doing this, you can get a professional opinion from your stylist to ensure the right hair style matches your dress neckline. Some dresses pair better with conservative or moderate hairstyles while other dresses look best when hair is pulled back from your face. Your stylist will be best to assist you in making your final decision.

2. Prep your hair: Begin to maintain your hair. Start by shampooing with a clarifying shampoo. Mielle offers a Mongongo Oil Exfoliating Shampoo that removes buildup from products, dirt and oils while adding moisture and softness. This effective yet gentle shampoo does not strip the hair of moisture.

Follow by conditioning with Mielle Hydrating Conditioner. This ultramoisturizing and PROTEIN-FREE conditioner is perfect for achieving soft and silky hair and is formulated with Sub-Saharan African Mongongo Oil for Intense Heat Defense™ and Curl Pattern Protection™, restoring health and shine.

3. Protect: As we all know, heat can be very damaging to your hair. Mielle has the perfect solution to protect hairstyles requiring both direct and indirect heat. It is essential to apply a heat protectant on the hair to prevent the hair from being damaged. Mielle has designed the Mongongo Thermal Heat Protectant Spray specially formulated to protect the hair from extreme heat temperatures.

Should you decide on a no-heat hairstyle such as perm rods, or flexi rods, Mielle has the Mongongo Oil Style Setting Spray. This product sculpts indirect-, low-, or no-heat stretched styles with light hold and luminous shine.

4. Moisturize: Adding moisture to your hair regimen is critical to maintaining a healthy scalp along with repairing and protecting the hair from everyday factors. Mielle has the Pomade-To-Oil Treatment, which is the perfect solution for soothing a dry scalp and adding an impeccable shine. Apply prior to wrapping your hair at night to seal in moisture, giving you the perfect look the next day!

5. Trial style: Schedule some time with your stylist to have your hairstyle done prior to the wedding so you can make any changes beforehand.

Mielle products will take away the stress of worrying about your hair so you can be worry-free on your big day!
