It is wedding season, and what better way to show off your gorgeous crown than on your wedding day? We understand that planning your wedding is both emotionally and financially taxing, so instead of spending more money on alternative hair, you can flaunt your own. Black women often have a complex and complicated relationship with their hair that begins at a young age. We’ve often seen the trend of natural hair being tucked away for big days like weddings or graduations and only coming out when the stakes are lower, i.e., on a regular day, giving the impression that women need braids and wigs to achieve beauty levels that cannot be reached while in their natural hair. Of course, we know this isn’t true, but our implicit biases aren’t based on facts. Reclaiming the narrative around our hair means rethinking why you make certain decisions and really digging deep for the answer. It can be emotionally taxing, but it will also be worth it. In this article, we have put together natural hair inspo for your big day so all of you can show up. Whether you have long type 4 hair or a TWA (Teeny Weeny Afro), we have you covered.

1. Low AfroBun with Accessories

2. Side Lift with Accessories

3. TWA With or Without Accessories

4. Up-Do with Flowers

5. Roll ‘n Tuck with Side Sweep

6. Curly Afro with Side Lift
