Fresh Flowery Hairstyle


There are many ways on how we make beauty for a woman. Flower is one of the accents that usually add on a woman style. We can see flowers on women’s dress, shoes, bags, jewelry and also women’s hair and hijab. Now, I want to share something about how we use fresh flowers on woman’s hair or hijab.


We often to see women using fresh flower on their hair is when they got engaged or married or when they attending a formal occasion. There are various blooms to use in this purpose. It could be a single large bloom, some of medium bloom or a cluster of tinny ones. You can utilize as well a headband that has attached to it various decorative flowers that go very well with the overall aspect of your hairstyle.

The decision of your bridal hairstyle is better to be taken at the moment when you are dressed with your bridal gown and have your hair stylish to look at the choices you might have, especially when you are definite into having wedding flowers for hair. You should always know what kind of bridal bouquet you will carry as you might want to coordinate the flowers in the bouquet with the ones arranged for your hairstyle.




Cymbidium Flowery Hairstyle
For a simple look, it would be definitely better the choice of a single bloom that is large enough to showcase your choice of wedding flower for hair. You can simply tucked the flower behind your ear while your hair is combed up or down on the other side of your hair. For instance, a lily can do the best for it. You can choose Asiatic lily for a plain color or oriental lily for a mix colors. If you don’t want to use lily, you can choose cymbidium orchid or catleya orchid. Don’t forget to pick a perfect blooming stage of the flower with a strong little stem. Use a hairpin to hold the flower on your hair. If you worn hijab. It’s better for you if the end of the stem warped by a floral tape or aluminium foil to prevent the flower’s sap stick on your hijab.

If you want to use some flowers on your hair, pick the smaller once than lily or cymbidium. The choices you might have are roses, freesia, orchid, carnation, calla lily, dianthus or mini gerbera. Tuck the stem of the flowers on your hair with grouping or spreading style. It depends on how long and how is your hair style. If you wear hijab, then it will be easier if you arrange the flowers first before you put them on your hijab. It will reduce the flower’s changing position while you move your head.

Baby Breathe Flowery Hairstyle


If you want to use a cluster of small flowers, baby breathe, aster or jasmine will look great on your hair. Be careful when you tuck them on your hair because they have a small stem that will easy to break and falling down from your hair after a while.




There is also a way to combine a big flower or medium flower with the small flower on your hairstyle which is by arrange them with a certain type of a small flower arrangement. It can form a circle, oval or linear. The most common combinations are lily and roses with baby breathe or aster. If you want to add foliage, ivy or Australian leaf will be the best for it.

In some countries, there is a typical flower arrangement that used for bridal hairstyle. In Indonesia, we use jasmine and we usually call it “ronce melati”. It’s been made by stitched them together until they form a certain shape like circle, triangle, dangle, etc. In here, we use jasmine bud to make ronce melati. Every shape has a specific name that only use for a bridal needs. As far as I know, in India, there is also almost the same flower arrangement for wedding hairstyle. It called “mallu”. Mallu is using jasmine blossoms and other kind of flowers such as aster, marigold and dahlia.

It is more complex for us if we decided to use fresh flower for our wedding hairstyle rather than we use an artificial ones, since fresh flowers need a good treatment to prevent withered in a short time or in the middle of the wedding party. But one thing for sure, the nature can’t lie. It fresh, colors, blooming form and smell definitely different and more elegant rather than the artificial ones.
