Hair style is an element of the bride’s image, on which a lot of time is spent on the wedding day, because it must be flawless. But no matter how fancy the style is, it looks incomplete without additional decor.
One of these accessories is a wedding hair comb. This is an independent decoration, which will give even the simplest hairstyle beauty and sophistication. At the same time, it is self-sufficient, it is easy to fasten, and it is securely held on the head.
What kind of combs for wedding hairstyles
Although all combs are quite beautiful, wedding combs stand out in a separate group. They are more decorated, which makes them difficult to wear in everyday life.

- plastic;
- wood;
- metal.

- Diadem comb – the accessory has a triangular shape and can be used as a comb, or as a diadem for high hairstyles. Because of the second function, such jewelry comes only symmetrical.
- A comb decorated only with rhinestones is quite a bold decision: apart from the stones nothing is visible, and this gives the accessory a heavy weight and requires moderation and thoughtful design from the creator, otherwise it will look vulgar and inappropriate.

Most often such combs are handmade and exist in a single copy. But such a design is suitable for brides whose wedding is not planned in a classical style.
