Highlight your gorgeous face. Make a center part in your bangs, loosely curl your hair, and you've got yourself a chic and simple wedding guest hairstyle.
Oversized Curls

| Abby Jiu Photography |
Make loose waves a little more glam. Curls with a lot of volume convey a relaxed, yet polished, vibe.
Loose Waves
 |

Less is more when it comes to this wedding hairstyle. The effortless elegance of loose waves and a center part make this the ultimate hairstyle for blending casual and sophisticated elements in one outfit or look.
It's best to use a 14-inch curling iron on dry hair and alternate directions (away from your face and toward your face) to add texture, says Ramon Garcia, stylist at Ramirez | Tran Salon.
Spray on dry shampoo for added volume (he recommends Authentic Beauty Concept's formulation, as it won't leave residue behind).
Twisted Half-Up
 |
| Laura Murray Photography |
The best wedding guest hairstyle is a twisted half-up style because it gives the impression that you spent a lot of time on it.
Take two pieces of hair from the front of your head and twist them. Pin them together in the back of your head, and you're done.
Simple Side Braid
 |
| Ashley Caroline Photography |
A braid is a quick and easy way to look polished. Gather your hair to one side and start braiding around your ear. When you're finished, gently pull out the edges for a fuller look.
Breezy Hijab
 |
| Lensy Michelle Photography |
Dress up your modesty with a traditional hijab made of a lightweight, sheer material.
Citrus-Colored Cut
 |
| Beige Weddings |
Make a statement with your hair color by wearing it in a citrus hue (a massive wedding hair trend). Straighten your hair to show off the color.
Natural Curls
 |
| Oey Kennedy Photography |
Without any additional styling, embrace your curly hair. On wet hair, apply a styling product (Garcia recommends Authentic Beauty Concept's hydrating lotion) and scrunch the ends.
Voluminous Curls
 |
| Apollo Fotografie |
For an edgy, exciting style, wear your natural curls and pin the sides back.
Braided Half-Up
 |
| Danielle Bennink |
Add a braid to the half-up 'do to take it to the next level. For a chic and one-of-a-kind look, Dutch braid one side of your hair and pin it in the back.
Trendy Topknot
 |
| Stehanie Velez |
Looking for an easy wedding guest hairstyle? Try a topknot. Not only will it appear undoubtedly gorgeous in images, it will also keep your hair off your face and neck so you can dance the night away.
Half-Up Bun
 |
| Rebecca Yale Photography |
Another one our fave cool-girl wedding guest hairstyles is a sophisticated half-up situation with a topknot. Gather your hair from the sides of your crown and pull it back into a high bun.
Air-Dried Locks
 |
| Lorely Meza Photography |
Yes, it is possible to achieve beautiful hair by allowing it to air dry. Mara Roszak, a celebrity hairstylist, suggests applying mousse to damp hair (she recommends Authentic Beauty Concept's mousse) and then twirling your hair into low pigtail buns until it's dry.
Take them out gently and work a styling product (she likes the same brand's shaping cream) into the structure to keep it in place.
Waves & Braids
 |
| M&E Photo Studio |
No need to look any further for the ideal boho wedding guest hairstyle. For the ultimate cool-girl look, add a few braids to your messy waves.
Low Twist
 |
| Britt DeZeeuw |
This hairstyle is deceptively simple for a wedding guest. Make a low ponytail with your hair and secure it with an elastic. Make a hole above the elastic with your two pointer fingers while your hands are wrapped around the base of the ponytail. Pull the ponytail gently through the hole to secure it.
