THE STYLIST

Dina Costa owner of Amazing Bride on location, special occasion and bridal hairstylist in the Chicagoland area.

I have passion for weddings, salons and making people look great! I started Amazing Bride for the simple fact that I have a deep passion for the art of bridal hairstyling. As a current full time hairstylist behind the chair I am always interested doing different things and being an industry leader.

I get the ultimate satisfaction to accomplish and nail down the exact look a bride envisions. I love knowing that I have a part of making the bride feel like she is the most beautiful woman on her special day. Hair styling for weddings is truly an art and is an outlet for me to take a step away from the salon and indulge in something that is once in a lifetime.

Dina gained experience for 10 years in the Chicagoland area working for Mario Tricoci's. During this time I was able to assist behind the scenes for the Oprah and Jenny Jones shows numerous times. I have also done the hair on a photo shoot for radio host Lisa Dent from Chicago’s Country Music Station US99.

THE TRENDS

I once read that "beautiful work is always in style" - I believe this is very true!! Every bride is unique in her own way and needs to pick a hairstyle that suits her personality.
From short to long locks, you can find a style to fit you and the look of your special day.

It is important to remember one thing, certain styles never go out of fashion. This is what I call "classic." Like everything else in life hair does evolve and the styles do come around again, just reinvented and a bit more modern.

Here is what I believe to be the trends for 2013-2014:

Vintage Styles

The Chignon

Classy with a modern twist

The Bun

Lower updo with a sleeker look

The Braid

Huge this year and can be worked into any updo

Old Hollywood

Inspired looks, with modern twists

Messy Updo

Soft, beachy waves

Tip: Pinterest is trending for hair! Most brides refer to pinterest when they come in for a trial so sign up now if you are not on!

Frequently Asked Questions

It really means a lot to me that my brides value my work so much that they need you to be a part of such a remarkable day. Here is a list of some questions that my clients frequently ask me:

Why Hire An On Location Stylist?

It is best to hire an on-location bridal hairstylist because the morning of your wedding day is kick started with hair and makeup! This starts the whole day of festivities so why not have your entire bridal party enjoy the luxury of having your hairstylist and makeup artist come right to your front door?!

You and your bridal party can celebrate and sip on mimosas while you are getting all glammed up! What a great way to start off your wedding day! Less stress is the best for you on this special day and you don’t have to travel. With an on location stylist the bride gets to be be more relaxed and pampered in the comfort of her own environment. I give both a personal feel and professional approach to make everyone comfortable.

Making Your Man Look Good

I can also style the grooms hair per request. A few tips to the gentlemen out there would be to decide on a hairstyle and length and get your hair cut one week prior to the wedding in order to look your best for your bride.

I would advise the groom against changing the style of their hair drastically close to the wedding on fear of them regretting it. Make sure to have a clean shaven neckline and well kept sideburns for your beautiful bride. Last tip would be to show up confident and stand proud for your beautiful bride.

Advice To The Newly Engaged

My advice to the newly engaged would be not to get wrapped up in all of the details of the wedding planning.

Enjoy the journey and savor the moments along the way. Marriage after all isn't about the flowers or the glitz, it is about the love you have for one another and rather a symbol of your unity as one.
