Bridesmaid Hair That Worked for Everyone AND Every Hair Type!

Beat the heat and learn how to prep your hair and keep it lasting all night long with expert tips from Nicole!

When Jillian Harris said "yes," she trusted Nicole Pomme and the Pomme team to make her bridal party shine—no matter their hair type. With the perfect product lineup, every bridesmaid walked down the aisle feeling confident, glamorous, and uniquely themselves.


Pre-Wedding Prep: A Clean Slate

  • The Kérastase Fusio Scrub Energisant is the ultimate step one for event ready hair and what Nicole used on Jillian prior to the big celebration weekend! Deeply cleansing the scalp and hair of impurities, flakes, product build up and excess oils, your hair will look and feel squeaky clean and perfectly prepped to be styled and photo ready.
  • In the days leading up to the wedding, Nicole gifted Jillian and her bridesmaids the Kérastase Gloss Absolu Shampoo and Conditioner. This duo is designed to give mirror like shine, deeply hydrate, eliminate frizz and leave hair silky smooth—perfect prep for bridal styling.

Tip: Wrapping hair in the Pomme Hair Towel afterwards minimized frizz while speeding up dry time!


Hair Prep: Expert Tips from Nicole

  • Wash timing matters: Wash your hair the night before or the morning of the wedding.
  • Keep it clean & simple: Blow dry with nothing in it, or use only a light leave-in or mousse.
  • Don’t pre-style: Avoid straightening or curling your hair beforehand—it makes it harder for your stylist to work with and for curls to hold. TRUST, your stylist will thank you and your style will last longer!
  • Be realistic with your style: Fine hair won’t hold every style that thick hair can. Choose 1–2 options you love and talk to your stylist about what’s most realistic for your hair type.
  • Let curls set: If you’re styled early, let your curls set and cool before brushing out (even if that’s 2–3 hours). This makes them last all night—even until 2 a.m. on the dance floor.
  • Trust the products: Even if you’re not a regular product user, be open! Products like Constructor help your style hold, add longevity, and keep your look polished without stiffness. You can add in some product for event day that feels lightweight but still effective at holding your style all day!
