There’s no denying that one of the most important wedding details that a bride spends months to a year planning and finalizing is her overall look on the big day. There’s the dress, the veil, the shoes, the bouquet—and of course, the beauty look. Because who doesn’t want to look her most blooming, fresh, and beautiful when she walks down the aisle?
While your wedding makeup is something you ought to really plan for, your hairstyle is equally as important. All eyes are on you, after all, and you’d want every detail to be perfect—including the wispy bangs or full fringe you ultimately choose to frame your face with. But if you happen to have short hair and don’t want to grow it out for the sake of a French knot or chignon when you say “I do,” don’t fret, because there are still a number of chic and stylish bridal hairstyles to choose from.
Beautiful Wedding Hairstyles for Brides with Short Hair:

If you’ve got a pretty hair color to flaunt, keep it simple with a half-pony fishtail braid! This hairstyle is perfect for the boho and fuss-free bride who wants to keep it casual but chic. Textured messy waves add dimension to this look and give it an even more youthful feel.
2. A Simple Blow-Dried Bob with Headband
Keep things simple by opting for a hairstyle that flaunts your statement bridal headband of choice.

The headband adds a very whimsical touch to your look if you’re going for a sweet and sophisticated vibe.
3. Sleek Pushed Back Bob with Statement Hair Accessory
Show off your neck, collarbones, and shoulders with this hairstyle that exudes elegance and sexiness but with utmost sophistication.
