Finding the right hairstyle for your wedding day is a big deal, so don't be ashamed or embarrassed to play with different looks. I sat through five different trials trying everything from long, wavy extensions to updos. Heck, even celebrity hairstylist Ken Paves said that, "once Carmen Electra selected her wedding dress, I created 13 different hairstyles on her and took a Polaroid of each one so she could select the one which was perfect for her."

This is your day to shine - you should look fabulous! And a great suggestion, Ken. It's important to take a Polaroid so that your stylist knows exactly how to recreate the look. I know it all feels kinda vain, but once you find something you love, you'll be so happy to have one less detail to worry about on your wedding day!

Oh and did I mention that Ken Paves also styled wedding hair for Jessica Simpson and Christina Applegate as well as J.Lo's hair for her wedding scenes in "Monster In Law" and "The Wedding Planner?" I wonder if he'll do Eva Longoria's too, I know she goes to him regularly. To see four popular wedding hairstyles to consider, read more

  • Updo: This is a broad category because it can mean chignon, french twist, ballet bun or simple knot. You can part it on the side to modernize this classic look, or give some volume to the crown. Even though it may not feel like something you'd be interested in, I encourage you to try your hair styled off your neck and away from your face. It really allows you to have a fuss free night! Check out Sarah Michelle Gellar here.
  • Half Up, Half Down: This keeps your hair out of your eyes but still allows somewhat of a flowy and natural feel. This look is really popular with all types of brides. You can see Nicole Kidman's wedding hair here.
  • Long and Natural: This is great for someone that wants to look like themselves on their wedding day. This look is becoming ever more popular with modern and natural brides. I would opt for shine/loose waves. Check out Jennifer Aniston's lovely locks here.
  • Short Hair With Added Body: If you have short hair you've got to do something to give it some oomph. You could add curl, volume or even spikes to dress it up a little bit. Look at Victoria Beckham's wedding 'do here.

There are a couple really great websites that you can also surf through to see many wedding hairstyles and celebrity wedding hair. To see my photo gallery that includes two versions of each type of hairstyle listed in this post, read more

    I loved how Carmen looked on her wedding day, but I have to say that one of my favourites wedding hair styles was Jessica's Simpson Smiling

    Considering the marriages of Jessica Simpson, Carmen Electra, and Christina Applegate have all ended in divorce, I'd highly suggest that Eva Longoria stay away from Ken Paves on her wedding day -- he's the only common thread!

    Seriously- all failed marriages! Maybe Ken is the curse!

    WOW 13 different hair styles, it really was unlucky for Carmen as she ended up in divorce. I used GHD on my wedding day with my friend who was a stylist.
