Getting Bridesmaid Hair - 2010 Season Tips
One of the most unique challenges for styling bridesmaid hair is for theme weddings where the hairstyle must work with an ornament such as a flower halo which is very popular in medieval weddings. During this period of time, braided hairstyles were quite common because most of the women wore long hair and this was the simplest way to keep a neat appearance.

But today, the trends in women’s hairstyles have changed and many women wear their hair shorter. If you are a member of a wedding with a medieval theme, you can still achieve this charming “braided crown” look for bridesmaid hair by using hair extensions to elongate the hair to whatever length you want.
If hair extensions don’t appeal to you, another way to accomplish this look is with vertical rows of braids angled toward the top of the head. To complete the look, simply use ribbons that match the color of your dress and weave them into the hair. Using the ends to affect the desired look of the braided crown or you can use the ends of the braids as anchor points to secure the flower halo.
Braids were not the only stylish hairdo used in medieval wedding. During the Renaissance the use of “taping” was very popular. This style is ideal for long bridesmaid hair and done by first parting the hair at the center of the head, then twisting the two sections of hair into coils, wrapping them around the head and securing them with hairpins.
