5 easy DIY hairstyles for a wedding

Choosing your outfit is not easy, let’s not talk about the hairstyle! Without having to go through the hairdresser’s box, you can make a pretty one, an essential element to enhance your look. Loose or tied hair, braid or bun, here is a selection of both chic and romantic hairstyles for a wedding.

The crown of braids for romantics

This is the must hairstyle when you are invited to a wedding. Fairly simple to do, you just need to know how to master the braid. Make a classic braid starting from one side of the head. Do not over tighten it  ; it has to be loose to get that “romantic” effect. After you have finished the head circumference, you can tie it with a clip or drop it to the side. Lacquer the hairstyle for more hold.

The plus: for a natural effect, let a few locks of the hairstyle escape!

The low bun, a timeless classic

Is your outfit sophisticated? Then bet on a sober and chic hairstyle  ! First, choose how you are going to tie your hair  : parted in the middle or on the side, slicked back or casually pulled up. Then bring your hair together to make a low ponytail , tuck it in with a rubber band while forming a bun. The detail that changes everything: put a pretty brooch or a head jewel in the bun .

The variations: the low braided bun is a slightly more worked version of this hairstyle. Instead of putting your hair up in a ponytail, make a low braid, then wrap it around itself to form a bun! It’s up to you to choose your preferred version.

The ponytail, trendy and timeless

No, the ponytail isn’t just for workouts. Both chic and glamorous, it can perfectly make its effect at a wedding. Having your hair tied in a ponytail with a simple elastic allows you to free the face and highlight your jewelry for example. To boost this hairstyle, I nevertheless propose to accessorize it with a pretty head jewelry or a headband .

There are a thousand and one ways to wear the ponytail: super high, low, to one side, with straight or curly hair. It’s up to you to choose your favorite version!

For short hair: the wavy square

There is nothing more natural as a hairstyle. The wavy effect, here for short hair (applies very well to longer hair), is definitely the hairstyle of the moment. Nothing very complicated, for me there are two simple methods to achieve this “combed-disheveled” effect:

The curling iron with which to make pretty waves on medium strands. Be careful, we don’t want to get curls, hence the importance of not curling the hair for too long and using medium locks. Lacquer the entire hair for more hold;

Don’t have a looper? So opt for the mini macaroons solution . Twist each strand by spraying a texturizing spray, then roll them up in small buns that are fixed with clips. Detach the macaroons, then tousle the hairstyle with a spray!

The accessory of the season: the flower headband

Sometimes a detail, like a wreath, can make all the difference. No need to go for a fancy hairstyle, a loose, slightly wavy hair or a classic updo can do the trick. The whole thing is to accessorize your hairstyle using a flower headband. It perfectly replaces a headband with rhinestones or other accessories seen and reviewed.

What I like: it’s the perfect accessory for weddings that will soon take place in spring / summer! For the more gifted among us, try making one with real flowers  !
