Wedding hairstyles: Locs Side Swept

Hair and construction

This is a starting-hair branch as well as a style family: the same bun or half-up idea can use locs. Their length, thickness and existing arrangement matter to the brief.

With a veil and accessories

For Locs Side Swept, agree the attachment in relation to the visible length and texture. Try the actual accessory and its removal; the style name does not establish compatibility.

Trial, movement and wear

Choose a stylist with relevant examples. Agree where the locs are supported, how ornaments attach and which steps must leave their structure intact.

Record the shape from several angles, the preparation used, your comfort and any changes. Agree touch-ups for the actual setting rather than assuming all-day hold.

Taking the style down

For locs or an existing braided/twisted base, distinguish the wedding-day ornaments and pins from the established hair structure. Follow the stylist’s separate care instructions.
