I also want to quickly add that if you have fine hair and you want a thick, fuller look for the big day, get hair extensions like these – they’re so worth it!
1. Curly Pixie Cut with Floral Accents
Embrace your short curls by adding small floral accessories, like this Floral Hair Clip, to create a soft, romantic look.
This hair clip is so pretty.
2. Side-swept curls
Sweep your curls to one side and pin them with a jeweled clip, such as this Crystal Hair Pin, for an elegant, asymmetrical style.
3. Half-Up Half-Down Curls
Gather the top half of your curls while letting the rest fall over your shoulders and back.
This is a classic hairstyle but it’s so beautiful – and this is the hairstyle I am going to do for my wedding.
Use a Hair Tie Set that matches your wedding colors for a balanced, relaxed look.
4. Loose Curly Updo
Pin your curls into a loose updo, leaving a few strands out to frame your face for a soft, romantic feel.
5. Defined Ringlets with a Headband
Define your curls and add a delicate Headband like this for a simple yet chic bridal look.
6. Curly Bun
Slick back your curls into a low bun – it’s traditional and will emphasize your curls.
7. Voluminous Fro
Let your natural curls shine by going big with volume for a bold, glamorous look.
8. Twisted Crown with Curls
Twist sections of your hair into a crown-like shape while leaving the rest of your curls loose for a regal effect.
Honestly, this was my go-to hairstyle for all formal events and I still feel it turns heads.
9. Curly bob with a Side Part
A defined side part paired with bouncy curls is classic but so underrated.
I’ve noticed side-partitions also suit most women – it’s simple and if you have a good haircut, you can do this yourself without getting a hairdresser.
10. Curly ponytail
You can pull your curls into a high ponytail if you want the focus to be on your face. This is great for women with defined bone structure.
11. Braid with flowers
You will have to get a hairdresser for this – perhaps someone who specializes in curly hair.
This definitely takes some work, but this is such a beautiful hairstyle – it’s ethereal and totally worth the time it takes to do.
12. Accessorized Curls with Flowers
Add decorative hairpins to your natural curls for a chic, minimalist touch.
13. Low Bun
You can sport a low curly bun for a modern, yet romantic hairstyle.
14. Wear a headpiece with your natural fro
I am always floored when women sport their natural fros – it’s so beautiful, you can add a sparkling headpiece like this to add a lovely contrast.
15. A Bun with Bangs
Curly hair bangs are somewhat risque but honestly, if bangs are your forte, you should definitely try this hairstyle!
16. A Bun with a Braid
Incorporating a braid into your updo will add texture and style – and this is so unique.
17. Locs in an Updo
This is such a beautiful hairstyle – I attended a wedding where the bride sported this look and her hair looked so pretty!
18. Tiny Braids leading up to a Crown of Curls
This is definitely an intricate hairstyle but if you’re looking for something more modern – this is definitely something you should consider.
19. Slick back hair into a ponytail or bun
This is perfect if you want to emphasize your makeup or want the focus to be on a headpiece for your special day.
20. Bubble Braid Bun
If you have 4B or 4C hair, you will love this hairstyle so much because it’s whimsical yet chic!
21. Updo with Tiny Flowers
4B and 4C hair can rock tiny flowers and pins because it adds a sort of fairy-like look to the hair. You can also try out any kind of updo!
