Short and Sweet: Gorgeous Bridal and Bridesmaid Hairstyles for Short Hair
Short hair can be incredibly versatile and beautiful for both brides and bridesmaids. If you're a bride or bridesmaid with short locks, fret not! Yes, ‘short’ can be anything from a Pixie cut to above the shoulders but with that, there are so many stunning hairstyles that can complement your overall look on that special day. Here, our stylists at Margot + Lace we present a curated collection of bridal and bridesmaid hairstyles for short hair that will leave you feeling confident!
All of the curls
There are so many different types of curl that can be achieved by using different hair tools. You could opt for glamorous and chic Hollywood waves, side-swept curls create a sophisticated look for brides and bridesmaids alike. You could choose for more of a beachy wave to give the relaxed, tussled effect. To ‘dress up’ the look, add a delicate hairpin or a flower for a finishing touch.
The Half-Up
Want something a little different from your day to day look. As mentioned in our Half-up, half-down reel there are so many variations to this look. You can choose a plait, a braid, majority up, majority down. This style allows you to showcase your facial features while keeping your hair off your face. This hairstyle is a great base to pop a veil or accessories in too.
The Sleek and Straight Look
Sometimes simplicity is key. Straighten your short hair for a sleek and sophisticated appearance. Either have it framing your face or pulled back to highlight your beautiful bridal/bridesmaid makeup.
The bun is back
Contrary to the common misconception that short hair can't be styled into an updo, a bun can be an option for those with collar bone length hair. Choose from a classic sleek bun or more of a textured bun, why not a knotted bun! Now if like me and your hair is super fine, your hair stylist may include some hair padding to make that bun more exaggerated.
Final thoughts: You might be thinking that your big day is looming and your hair serum hasn’t worked as well as you wanted, or you love your short locks but you are unsure what hairstyles might work. You and your hair stylist will talk through all of the options at your trial, so please don’t worry as we are sure that we can help create the look of your dreams!
