Short and sweet, the pixie is a short hair classic for your big day. Nai’vasha recommends giving it movement and dimension with some short waves: Simply style hair with Tresemmé One Step Blow Out Cream and use a small flat-iron to get that bend.

Textured Soft Bun

It doesn’t get more classic than a bun: Add some volume and texture to a lob with slight waves, says Collins. Using a straightening iron, create waves before pulling hair back into a low-to-mid ponytail (depending on the length you’re working with). Then wrap hair around and pin it loosely to give it a more effortless vibe.

For something fun and out of the box, Nai’vasha is a huge fan of a braided fauxhawk. “This style is a great option for brides with naturally coily hair types to add a bit of edge to their look,” she says.

Why save that floral crown for your festival needs? Collins likes this hair accessory for an ethereal feel to your wedding hairstyle. Opt for a center part and hair tucked behind the ears for an elegant finish.

A short pineapple ponytail is another pick from Nai’vasha for a chic wedding hairstyle; she recommends using a small curling wand to create uniform curls. Once your entire head is curled, use bobby pins to secure curls to the top of your head and set the look with a flexible hold hairspray. Try Matrix Fixer Hairspray.

For Old Hollywood glamour, opt for a bob with soft waves. To do just that, work in mousse at your roots, then spritz a texture spray to the ends of your hair for added volume, says Collins. We love Redken Dry Texturizing Finishing Spray.
