Best Wedding Hair Styles for Humid Climates in Miami & South Florida
So you’ve landed on surf & sand as your dream destination to tie the knot… Take it from us—you won’t be disappointed with your choice of a South Florida wedding!
But have you thought about the cloud of moisture you’ll be swimming through even when walking on dry land? Florida’s humidity is a beast in its own league!
Lucky for you, as wedding hair stylists in Miami and South Florida, we’ve got tips & tricks galore gleaned from our 20+ years in the biz, especially in the coastal climates of the American Southeast.
Here are some ideas that if done right (and we do ’em right!) are long-lasting enough to withstand a hot & humid wedding day while still maintaining the gorg-factor.
Best Wedding Hairstyles for Miami & South Florida Humidity
- Structured updo
- Braided style
- Slicked-back bun
- Low chignon
These looks inherently promote more durability due to the pins and product used to anchor them into place.
To get even further ahead of the curve, a day-before blowout with humidity protection primers will seal the cuticle and help fight the frizz! (Pro tip: curly girl products often have specific ingredients designed to do just that.)
And even before the day before, pre-wedding prep is very important. For example, to make sure your hair is not overly dry with a lot of split ends, a deep conditioning mask and a good hair trim will ensure a lasting style.
Let’s talk about another kind of moisture. Whether you’re a natural-born sweater or not, Colorado, Florida, and Arizona all have heat that could make a pig perspire; so you might consider a swept-up updo to keep your neck cool and dry.
Maybe you don’t dig the all-up look at all but still want to be cautious about the climate. If your hair type can handle it, a secured half-up style that incorporates clip-in extensions can assist its hold and longevity throughout the day and night.
While we can provide a few touch-up goodies for the festivities following our departure, hair spray, bobby pins, and a “bridal emergency kit” are helpful to have handy when just in case becomes a case of dire need.
These are just a few ideas to get your wheels turning. But you don’t have to do it alone—We got you! As wedding hair stylists in Miami, our artists will determine the best products and approach, and will make suggestions for any & all of the above based on your hair type and wedding-day climate to bring your bridal hair vision to life!
