All About Justine Marjan’s Wedding Day Beauty Look
Cibelle Levi
As celebrity hairstylistJustine Marjanprepped for her wedding day, not only did the pro know exactly what hairstyle she wanted — but exactly how to get it, too! The admittedly “picky” bride-to-be soled up her sleeves and created the look herself, and now she’s opening up to PEOPLE exclusively about her “glamorous” style.
Marjan only tested the style once before committing to it. “I wore it to work and everyone kept telling me how great I looked, so I knew it was the perfect style!”
It also helped that her soon-to-be husband, Yoni, had always been a fan of long, loosely curled hair. Marjan knew, however, that as long as she felt good, her groom would be happy too.

“Make sure to wear a style you feel confident doing, and makes you feel like yourself. Your wedding day is definitely not the day to try something new or take a risk,” she added.
