Bridal Hair & Makeup Trends for 2019

Take a look at what is going to be on-trend in hair and beauty for the next year with my round-up of the best 2019 wedding trends.

If you’re planning a wedding this year and not sure where to start when thinking about your hair and makeup style then my list of the hottest wedding trends for 2019 is a great place to begin.
​

Chic Chignon

The chignon is an absolutely timeless bridal hairstyle. By keeping things sleek and sophisticated you’ll tap into the trend for “royal” looks. The trick to this style is to keep the bun low and don’t be afraid of using product to keep flyaway hair in place.

​Soft Tendrils

The 2018 wedding scene was all about Meghan Markle, and it is no surprise that her choices are going to influence the do's and don'ts for bridal choices for 2019.  Tendrils help to frame your face and soften the severity that an updo can create.  I think the tendril is a fabulously romantic way to bring a more casual feel to a classic style.

​Half Up Half Down

This style was hugely popular for 2018, and I think that it is here to stay.  Its a beautifully simple style.  Pull the front sections of the hair back, twist them slightly or add a plait of your choice, simply pin together and you've got a sleek yet whimsical finish for a bride that wants to keep things simple and look a bit more beachy or boho.

​Floral Flourishes

I love a flower headpiece, whether it be fresh flowers, dried flowers or even constructed from metal.  I think they are gorgeous especially if you have decided to not wear a veil - they just add something spectacular to your 'behind'.   Take inspiration from the spring 2019 catwalks - there were some dramatic flower headpieces!  For 2019 opt for larger blooms and experiment with greenery.

​The Bridal Lob

If you are wanting to have complete wedding day transformation - then why not go for the chop!  The lob (aka long bob) is effortlessly cool and doesn't mean you are restricted when it comes to styling.  Go for loose waves for the more casual look or if you want to glam things up add a hair accessory. 

---

Blurry Eyed

The smokey eye is a timeless classic.  But for some it can be a little too bold.  As bridal makeup moves into its understated glam phase, it is time to welcome the blurred eyeliner.  With the flexibility of playing with colours and intensity this sultry smudged look manages to complement pretty much every age and style! 

---

​Heavy Metal

What wedding is complete without sparkling eyes?  I love to wing it with some shimmery, metallic eye shadow.  It will add iridescence and depth to eyes, whether a sheer layer for the shy or a double dose for the daring, glitzy lids are pure indulgence and they are having their moment right now! 

---

​Barely There Glow

It doesn't get more timeless than natural makeup that shows off skin's gorgeous glow.

---

​Vampy Lips

This rich lip is a perfect balance to a more natural makeup look. Spice up your wedding day appearance with a sexy pop of colour.  

---

​Statement Sheen

Lip gloss is back.  Needless to say, a glossy finish over satin or matte will be high up on 2019's most wanted list.  The trend speaks to an enthusiastic, youthful, feminine energy, and for those who love the 'no-makeup-makeup' look, this moisture laden, light reflecting look brings a gorgeous sheen to your face.
