NATURAL HAIRSTYLES It’s no secret the pandemic affected our everyday appearance (Zoom pants, WFH no-makeup look). And the way we wear our hair is no exception. During the past two years, many women have embraced their natural hair textures, skipped the hot tools and cut down on the collection of hair products they use. This trend has carried over to wedding hairstyles as well. More brides are letting their natural waves and curls be the center of attention on their big day. Similarly, many brides want a more laid-back, boho hairstyle—think beach waves and twists rather than uniform curls. The “boho braid” is making a comeback—a three-strand or loose fishtail braid accented with a simple hairpiece. Ashley Jakubik of Bella Salon & Spa in Chester Springs says brides-to-be come to Bella and its sister salon in Phoenixville looking for “halfup, half down styles or even all the way down and sleek” more often than elaborate updos.
