Apart from celebrating love, weddings are also an opportunity for the bride to show off. While weddings can be tiresome for last-moment changes, a recent trend has taken hold of weddings where a bride could be seen getting a haircut in the middle of her wedding. Some brief looks at the moment were circulated on the internet which shocked the users.

A viral clip was doing rounds on social media where a bride was seen getting a new hairdo instead of a dress change. In the video, the bride could be seen flaunting her long hair. After a while, the video was cut to a woman wearing an orange dress and pulling out the salon cape and wrapping around the bride. Finally, the woman chopped and trimmed off the bride’s hair and gave her a new haircut. The bride was showing off her new haircut and her hair length was just below her shoulders.

The bride was absolutely thrilled about her fresh hairdo. The clip was from March 13. The video was captioned as, “When you can keep your gorgeous dress on AND get a new do.” The 28-year-old told that she was seeking a dramatic change in her look between her ceremony and reception. The bride was not inspired by anyone else but she always wanted to do something different and unique. Finally, she came up with the idea of getting a new hairdo between her wedding.

The bride’s hairdresser was her great family friend who had been cutting her hair for years. The bride further told that she always used to grow her hair to a certain length and then get it cut. She felt more comfortable when she had short hair. However, the bride was growing her hair for her wedding to get more work done with her hair. The event was supposed to be a surprise for her husband but the bride agreed that she had let it out a couple of times in front of her husband.

However, with so many preparations going on, her husband almost forgot about the haircut. The bride added that she was planning to wear a second dress to walk into the reception but then thought of doing a hairdo instead. Her hair was bleached three times for the event to give it that nice white-blonde look, so that definitely needed to be chopped off. The bride was quite nervous and worried. Though she has done a billion haircuts, no one had done it in a wedding dress.

People had a variety of reactions. Some were overwhelmed by the incident stating that her dress and her hair were looking gorgeous. Another said that he was in love with the new hairdo. Others compared it with a Punjabi tradition of India where the bride chops her hair between the ceremony and reception to signify a bride’s new life.
