37 Wedding Hairstyles for Short Hair

A cropped cut like this looks super sophisticated with a delicate rhinestone headband (or a diamond one, if you are feeling F-A-N-C-Y). Just pair it with a flawless makeup look, and you are ready for the aisle.

Channel your inner big-screen siren with glam waves that are glossy, shiny, and definitively gorgeous. Create a deep side part for an extra swoop across your forehead.

Switching into your second dress? Turn your bob into a major focal point with a set (or two) of stylish bobby pins. It’s a quick hair swap everyone—including your wedding guests—will appreciate.

If you currently have a pixie and want to switch it up a bit, this is for you. Finger waves are great for added texture. And if you wrap your hair at night, you can make this style last well into your honeymoon.

Give your lob an unexpected twist by adding a bit of bouncy, curly texture that looks more sexy than it does sweet.

Want to steal this silver style? Part your hair on the side, then Dutch-braid a two-inch section of hair, starting from your part and working toward your ear. Secure with metallic barrettes or pins.

Who says brides can’t be edgy? Resist the urge to grow out your hair and grab the clippers instead. It’s the perfect remix to a traditional pixie.

Look amazing from all angles in a wavy side bun secured with a beautiful heirloom clip. This look is formal without being stuffy—and I’m totally not mad about that.

Can’t figure out what to do for your big day? Add a touch of color to the tips of your hair—try a temporary spray like Dark and Lovely Go Intense Color Spray in Bombshell Blue— for an unexpected take on the classic wedding day look.

Even though your hair is super short, you can still work it into a few braided buns with texture spray, bobby pins, and a whole bunch of patience.

Even if your wedding isn’t themed (this bride went for it with a Captain Hook–inspired soirée), you’ll still be able to appreciate this loose, flirty updo. Hidden pearls make it feel fun, while still being festive.

Consider yourself a low-key bride? Then this is the style for you. Simply part your hair to the side, and then loosely pull it back, twisting, and tucking it up into the bottom of the headband for an effortless, feminine finish.

For those who love playing with extensions, try adding a few twists (or braids) to give your hair some added length—and volume—that you’ll reminisce over almost as much as your wedding day itself.

Pin-straight strands aren’t the only wedding-day option in the book. Make a vintage style feel modern with loosely pinned waves and a statement brooch (moonlighting as a hair clip).

No hair, no problem: Accentuate a super-short cut by creating texture via a matte pomade or edge-control gel.

Regardless of your hair length, pearls paired with crystals are a bridal look we can all get behind. Keep your hair slicked back and smooth to let your headband (and makeup) take the focus.

A scrunchy for your wedding day might feel like a stretch (pun intended), but for the offbeat bride, it’s right on par. A few casually placed hair clips make this a hip, sartorial take on traditional bridal hair.

Take your natural, curly hair to the next level by tapering the sides for extra edge. Slip the comb attached to your veil into your hair for a final touch.

Yes, you can get your bob-length locks into braids. Hairstylist Kristin Ess defied all odds on Lucy Hale’s super-short cropped cut with these Dutch braids—which, by the way, would be perfect for your wedding day.

Going for an ethereal look on your wedding day? Add a mix of subtle bends (and braids) to your hair with a flat iron, then pull them together with a dainty flower crown before you say “I do.”
