I Asked Beyoncé’s Hairstylist to Talk Top Wedding Hair Trends, and She Delivered

The healthier your hair is, the better it will look on the big day. Kimble says she always talks about haircare in her consultations. “Six months out is a great time to start planning for that,” she says. “I recommend conditioning treatments so your hair is shiny and looking healthy.” 

If you’re closer than six months away from your wedding, don’t panic. As Kimble puts it, “It depends on how much damage you have. I recommend good haircare anyway, getting married or not. Do something nice for your hair at least once and month. If you start at three months out? Great. You can get some really nice results in that time.” 

Incorporate products like hair masks, serums, and oils into your haircare routine—anything that will boost moisture and shine. “I have an amazing shampoo and conditioner,” Kimble says. “It’s definitely hydrating, especially if you have textured hair. It helps keep your hair in great condition.”

Oh, and don’t do anything drastic right before the wedding. “If you’re going to get your hair colored, plan to do it two to three weeks before so your hair oxidizes,” Kimble says. “Even with cuts, you want your hair lived in. I wouldn’t do anything drastic right before the wedding.”
