Bohemian chic.
Boho brides need a hairstyle that's as free-spirited as they are! Soft, romantic, and ethereal, a textured updo is perfect for most hair types and makes it a universally flattering wedding hairstyle. Bohemian bridal hairstyles have become increasingly popular with more brides choosing outdoor weddings than ever.
Pretty Pony
The Ponytail hairstyle is so chic! Pair it with statement earrings, and amaze all your guests with your glam look! This hairdo tends to work better for those with long hair, yet you can always go for hair extensions to bring the look together. For an ultra-flattering look, be sure to create lots of volume at the crown of your head.
The traditional Chignon.
The chignon bun adds a sophisticated and polished finish to any look. Derived from the French phrase 'chignon du cou,' meaning 'nape of the neck' — a chignon bun sits effortlessly on the nape of the neck. Add a hair accessory or fresh flowers for an Oscar-worthy finish. It goes well with most wedding dresses, so it's a perfect option for modern brides with a minimalist taste. As all your hair is styled back, it's essential to have radiant skin, and on-point makeup when wearing a classic low chignon bun!
Halfway Up.
The half-up, half-down hairstyle is a perfect choice for a bride looking for a regal look or wishing to add a tiara to her hair. This hairstyle gives you the best of two worlds. Firstly, you get to show off your hair, and secondly, the gently pulled-back top section of your hair means you get to show more of your face. You can add beautiful details like braids and twists, and slide-in hair accessories to make your bridal style even better.
Extremely dramatic.
High bun hairstyles have always been a popular choice for brides due to the classic touch that lasts the test of time! Create a messy top knot bridal bun with wispy tendrils for a more romantic or bohemian look or go sleek and sophisticated for a more elegant style. No matter your hair length or type, a stylish high bun will always ensure you a chic and sleek look.
Mane is a mess.
A messy plait is a great wedding day hairstyle for brides who love a touch of a bohemian vibe. It's feminine and stylish without being too fussy or 'done up.' Whether you're planning a beach wedding, a destination wedding, or a beautiful summer afternoon wedding close to home, this undone braided hairstyle is incredibly versatile. And can we just say how much we love the lush volume and all of the wispy strands?
