Short Bridal Hairstyles: Get Your Dream Wedding Style, Whatever Your Hair Length

When you picture a bride, you picture long hair swept into a gorgeous wedding hairstyle, right? If you have short hair, you may think you could never pull off that look, but you may just be surprised.

No matter your hair length, there are beautiful and elegant wedding hairstyles a reputable stylist can create for you!

Updos Aren’t out of the Question 
Believe it or not, stylists can work magic with updos and short hair. It’s all in the technique. While they can’t sweep up your hair in a sophisticated chignon, they can wrap your cute locks up, layering them on one another, creating an elegant and unique look. Let your hairstylist try it at your trial appointment to see what you think!

Low Buns are Elegant Too 
If you want your hair swept β€˜up’ but can’t quite get it higher than your neck, consider a low bun. They are whimsical and elegant at the same time and work great with certain hairpieces. Talk to your stylist about your options, or ask what type of hairpieces would work best if you chose the low bun before you buy one.

Use the Half Up Hairstyle
Wedding hair doesn’t mean it has to be worn up, but if you’ve always imagined a β€˜swept up’ look, consider a half-up hairstyle. Sweep up the sides and half of the back, but not the entire hair. Use elegant clips and accessories to dress it up, making your hair look romantic and elegant for your big day.

Accessorize It 
If you have short hair, such as the pixie style, consider just going with more accessories. A flower band or an elegant veil will make your hair look sweet and romantic no matter how short it is. Pixie hairstyles are great at showing off your amazing facial features – and what more does your groom want to see on your wedding day than your beautiful smile?

Loose Curls are Sweet 
Some brides don’t want the elegant and sophisticated look; they would rather look like β€˜themselves’ on their wedding day. Low loose curls are the perfect way to do just that. They don’t take away from the dress, or your beautiful face, and yet they add a sense of elegance to your everyday hairstyle.

Use Side Pins
Short hair that can’t be swept up or curled looks elegant with side pins. Your stylist can pin back the front of your hair, while creating a sophisticated style with the rest of your hair. It’s a way to add a little bit of sophistication to your style without going overboard.

The sky is the limit when creating wedding hairstyles out of short hair. Experiment, have fun, and have an open mind when you sit down with your stylist to come up with your wedding hairdo. Think of your dress’s neckline and the look you want and together you’ll create the most magical hairstyle that will wow your guests and make you feel like a princess on your special day.
