Being asked to be your friend’s, sibling’s, or other family member’s bridesmaid is quite an honor. It means they value your opinions and want you by their side during one of the most memorable moments of their life. This is why it's important for you to put a whole lot of effort into how you’ll look at the wedding. Every little detail matters—from your bridesmaid’s dress to your hair and makeup. Does this sound overwhelming? Worry not! We’ve compiled a list of some of the best spring wedding hairstyles for bridesmaids to help you look gorgeous at your loved one’s spring wedding. Hairstyles That Are Perfect for a Spring Wedding Most people believe that spring is the best season to start a new life together. The weather is perfect, and the season brings with it the perfect “Goldilocks temperature.” So why not flaunt your beautiful locks at your loved one’s wedding with these exciting hairstyles. Side-Swept Braids and Flowers The classic side-swept braid is one of the most elegant hairstyles ever. And the flowers will add a touch of spring to your already beautifully braided hair. This makes an excellent spring wedding look because it's fun, vibrant, and simple. If you are gonna be part of an outdoor wedding surrounded by greenery and flowers, then you should definitely give this hairstyle a try. To get the “side-swept braids and flowers look” right, first, brush your hair thoroughly to remove any knots or tangles. Then, partition your hair, brush it to the side, and braid it well. Add individual flowers in between each braid or alternate braid to complete the look. With this versatile style, you can either keep all your hair inside the braid, or you can choose a partial updo with the remainder of the hair left out of the braid and styled in long, flowy curls. If you are not a fan of long braids or long curls, you could tuck the side-swept braid to a chignon or bun at the back of your head. The bun or chignon itself can even be adorned with flowers. Fishtail Braids With or Without Flowers Fishtail braids are popular and beautiful. Though they seem complicated, they are pretty easy to accomplish. And if you need help, you could always reach out to the expert hairstylists at the Glamonator Beauty Bar. The fishtail braid looks both romantic and natural and works for both medium-length and long hair. Bridesmaids can choose to have a side braid or a braid flowing down their back. The braid might even look better with a bit of curl at its end. You can either pin flowers to the braid or leave it as it is. Highlighted hair looks absolutely gorgeous in this style. Another variation you should totally try out is the “messy fishtail braid.” Flowing Locks of Hair and Flower Crown The best part about this look is that it is simple and easy. To get the look right, brush your hair well and then create soft curls or “locks” with a curling iron. If you’re feeling more adventurous, you could even go for tight curls. Air your hair out a little to give it a natural look. Now place your flower crown over your head. Whether the flowers are big ones like roses and chrysanthemums or wispy, wild and tiny wildflowers, you can’t go wrong with a flower crown with green or golden leaves interwoven into it. In fact, multi-color flower crowns are quite the trend these days and are excellent for bridesmaids. Traditional Bun or Chignon  If the wedding follows a more traditional, formal theme, then the basic bun or chignon hairstyle is a great option. While this is more of a bridal hairstyle, it also works well for bridesmaids. Regardless of whether you’re part of an indoor or outdoor wedding, you can be sure that your hair will stay out of your way as you run around getting things done for the bride.
However, buns and chignons are not the easiest DIY bridesmaid hairstyles. So it’s always best to get professional help if you choose this hairstyle. Our team at Glaminator Beauty Bar is here to work with you to achieve the results you want for your loved one’s special day. The Waterfall Braid or Cascading Waterfall Braid Waterfall braids are one of the most popular bridesmaid hairstyles of all time. This style gives off a very laidback vibe and is perfect for spring weddings. You will be leaving most of your hair loose to create this look. So, it's best to curl your hair first if you plan to go for the “cascading waterfall style.” You may also want to brush your hair before you style it. After this, partition your hair and then create beautiful braids using small portions of your hair from both sides. You can then weave the braids in a circle or semi-circle around the loose hair and pin them. If you want to add some spring magic to this already stunning look, just place a large flower at the back of your head or pin small flowers in between the braids. The loose hair you didn’t braid will flow down your back perfectly. Looped Side Ponytail This hairstyle is perfect for bridesmaids with long hair and is an upgraded, classier version of the basic ponytail. What’s more? This technique is so easy and fast that you’ll be done with your hairstyling in no time. It will also keep your hair out of the way as you help the bride manage all the little (and big) details of the wedding.

Blush Contour It’s one of this year’s beauty TikTok trends. With any blush for your skin tone, just as you would contour, apply the blush along your cheeks and temples. Pair it with a lip and shadow in the same color family for a monochromatic, extra-glam look. Colorful Eyeshadow Eyeshadow primer is key. Pack on a pigmented shade on your eyelids, and diffuse it out into a wing in the outer corner of the eye. Apply a darker shade of the same color to that outer corner, and finish it off with some glitter shadow in the inner corners and on the lids. Gold Lids Gold glitter on the eyelids followed up with a dramatic lip choice takes little to no time at all to do yourself. Apply glitter to lids with an eyeshadow brush and then move on to a bold lipstick of your choice. Classic Red Lip The easiest way to elevate your look in seconds is to wear a bold lipstick color. Consider keeping the rest of your makeup look more neutral since all eyes will be on your red lips. This red lip look is sophisticated and perfect for New Year's Eve. Shape your lips with a matching lip liner to ensure the color stays put.  You still have time to book your hair appointment with us.

High Ponytail Rock your long do’ a la Ariana Grande on Friday. A classic ponytail is fun and not overly complicated.

We also love the idea of rhinestone bobby slides for a chic loose style.

Has your skin become dry already? There’s nothing pleasant about cracked and irritated skin. So to help you get through these upcoming next cold, dry and dull months, we compiled a list of beauty tools you will need.
Body Brush Dry brushing is perfect for exfoliating dry winter skin. It helps get rid of dead skin cells, allowing skin to suck up moisture and stay hydrated. Exfoliating also aids in the process of skin renewal, because as dry, dull skin cells are removed, healthy new cells get formed. This means that skin will look more vibrant and bright. It also stimulates your nervous system, which can make you feel invigorated afterward. Try it daily or a few times a week for best results. We recommend dry brushing right before getting in the shower so you can wash off any dead skin cells and flaky skin. Be sure to apply lotion afterward to put moisture back into your skin. Facial Steamer You can always steam with a warm towel, or even over a bowl or sink with hot water - but a facial steamer may provide a more powerful method. Steam opens up your pores and helps loosen any buildup of dirt for a deeper cleanse. Opening up your pores softens blackheads, making them easier to remove. Steaming also promotes circulation, collagen and elastin. And it’s hydrating, soothing, and it can even help a sinus congestion. LED Masks Fight more than just a zit. An LED light mimics natural light and boosts serotonin levels, boosting your energy and decreasing stress. It’s perfect timing for such a device as seasonal affective disorder (SAD) might affect some of us now that winter is here. The light therapy from the LED masks can also ward off wrinkles, boost collagen production and increase hydration. If you found this helpful then let me know in the comments section below.

You can add it to your smoothie, salad or tea to help fight inflammation and to get a good source of fiber, vitamins and magnesium. But did you know turmeric can also improve your skin?
Studies have shown that curcumin, a chemical compound found in turmeric, can decrease UV damage (it's a natural antioxidant) and clear up acne (it's also antibacterial) when applied to skin. While you can probably make some homemade remedies, beauty brands have made it easy for you to buy your favorite turmeric-infused products at your local beauty store. Brightening & Exfoliating Masks For under $50, you can find 2-in-1 turmeric brightening and exfoliating masks, which contain exfoliating alpha hydroxy acids to address hyperpigmentation, dullness, and uneven texture. Pore Toner Some toners feature soothing turmeric, alongside a slew of other nourishing ingredients like aloe to balance skin while seriously turning up the glow factor in your complexion. Spot Treatments Ever have a zit? Then you must know something about benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid - two of the most effective acne-fighting ingredients out there, but they can easily cause dryness and irritation if used too aggressively. Brighten discoloration and target blemishes the gentle way with a turmeric spot treatment. Cleanser Get yourself a facial cleanser with turmeric extract. It’ll leave your skin clean and refreshed without drying it out. If you found this helpful then let me know in the comments section below.

Here are five simple steps to help your makeup last through the day.
Prep your skin It’s best to start by cleansing and exfoliating skin, which can help you control any excess sebum. Even the oiliest of skin needs hydration. A gel-based lotion or moisturiser will hydrate the skin without leaving it slick or greasy. Use a mattifying primer A mattifying primer will help conceal shine, grease, and excess buildup before your makeup application. As you shop, you'll also want to look for oil-fighting ingredients like charcoal and clay. Choose the best foundation Pick between a powder and a mattifying liquid foundation. You can go as light as a tinted moisturizer that won’t slip off and leave streaks on your face. Go oil free Since normal skin naturally produces more than enough oil, invest in makeup products (especially foundation and blush) that are oil-free and noncomedogenic, which means they don't clog your pores. Ask your dermatologist if cleaners and toners infused with glycolic acids, which cut down on excess oil, are right for you. Look for “long wear” Water and oil can do the same things to makeup: make it smear, smudge, or slip. That's a reason to stick to eye products that are waterproof, water-resistant, or long-wear. One of the best, long-wear combos is water-resistant eyeliner and cream eye shadow over an eye primer. If you found this helpful then let me know in the comments section below.

And that’s why we love subtle face-framing hairstyles that are based on your face shape or hair color.
Highlights Face-framing highlights are a coloring technique that cleverly brings out your most attractive features. Explain to your hairstylist that you are looking for strategically placed waves and carefully selected coloring clues that will offer hints as to where the eye should be drawn. Usually the color is placed where the sun would naturally highlight your hair. Oval shape There’s no shortage of options when it comes to layered haircuts that will suit your face shape. Since your symmetrical shape gives you a bit of leeway, consider emphasizing its symmetry with some face-framing bangs—curtain bangs, to be exact. Lob with Face-Framing Layers A traditional lob can sometimes look heavy at the front, especially if you have thick hair. Framing chin-length layers around your face will soften this hairstyle and accentuate your features. Bangs Shorter face-framing layers like curtain bangs are a perfect choice to hide a bigger forehead and bring attention to your cheekbones. Blow dry your fringe upwards and downwards with a medium-size round brush to achieve a chic look. Long layers While layers are one of the best ways to elevate your long hairstyle, we like the idea of facial framing. Some layering around your face will emphasize your features and jazz up the style. Part your hair in the middle or wear it swept to one side to create different looks.

Before you spend all your money at an expensive department store or beauty counter, we recommend browsing through your kitchen cabinets for the best moisturizing ingredients.
Honey Honey is not only deeply moisturizing but also has antibacterial properties, and it helps clean out your pores. Raw honey and manuka honey are also known to prevent acne breakouts, especially during winters. It clarifies skin by opening up and unclogging pores. It’s also a great moisturizer that soothes irritation and blemishes, and it leaves a lovely afterglow. Try a moisturizing honey mask at home. Turmeric Turmeric is a spice with anti-inflammatory, antifungal and antibacterial properties - all to say it’s perfect for keeping your skin hydrated too. Raw turmeric is especially beneficial for the skin and can be directly applied after turning into a paste. If you only have powdered or dry turmeric at home, mix it with milk before applying onto the skin. Coconut oil Coconut oil is one of our favorite ingredients because you can do so much with it - especially in the winter! Use it as a makeup remover, exfoliant, cuticle cream and even a shaving cream! It will prevent razor burns and dryness on your legs after shaving, just by applying a thin layer. The result will leave your legs feeling super soft, smooth, and moisturized. For those particular harsh winter days, sleep with a DIY face mask made from coconut oil to restore hydration. Sugar You can create your own sugar body scrub to exfoliate your skin this winter. Or, you can get one at GlaminatorBeautyBar.com. Our Sugar Scrub formula harnesses the powers of raw cane sugar, emu oil, & coconut oil to gently exfoliate and rejuvenate your skin. A lightweight and whipped scrub penetrates deeply to leave your skin smooth, hydrated and clean. A subtle hint of therapeutic lavender essential oil will seduce your senses.
