15 Easy Wedding Hairstyles You Can Do Yourself (2024)

Make yourself into a walking art piece by adding crystals, jewels, or pearls to your hair. Style your hair as simply or as complexly as you like, but the real star of the show will be what you decide to place on top of it.

Apply a small amount of lash glue onto your hair before placing your jewels of choice.

There’s nothing wrong with looking like yourself on your wedding day. So, if you usually rock your natural waves and center part, go for it on your wedding day, too!

The center part has taken the world by storm in recent years, finally getting the spotlight it so deserves. So feel and look like yourself on your special day, and we know your significant other will love you for it.

A simple half-up, half-down hairstyle is perfect for the DIY bride. All you need to do is style your hair how you wish (curled, straightened, etc.) before pulling back around half of your hair into a small hairband.

Be sure to leave out some of the front pieces to make it look effortless (even though it’s actually a little more effort). It’s a classic look that also gives you the perfect place to clip your veil.

Straightened hair will never go out of style. Create a sleek and pin-straight look with just the help of a straightener and strong hairspray.

This striking style especially goes well with brides who are looking for a clean, minimalist vibe.

A well-done side part can create an instant iconic hairstyle. To achieve this look, you’ll want to add volume to your hair by curling it beforehand. You can add in texture spray if you want to give it a little more oomph.

Then, just part your hair where you want it, and swoop your hair over your head so it cascades around that side of your face dramatically. For best results, pin the other side of your hair back with bobby pins or an added headpiece.

A side-swept hairstyle will frame your face while giving you a classic look. Pull all of your hair to the side you want the ponytail on and secure it with a hair band.

To elevate the look, leave out a lock of hair to wrap around the hairband. Bobby pins can hold this in place.

A headband is a chic alternative to a classic hairpiece. Style your hair as little or as much as you wish: straightened, curled, or completely natural. When it’s done, just add a perfectly curated headband that matches your aesthetic.

Elevate your look easily with this accessory and push back your hair to bring everyone’s attention to exactly where it needs to be — that gorgeous face!

A messy high bun is a look for the romantic, modern bride. Bring all of your hair to the top of your head before putting it into a ponytail. Then, just like the low bun, wrap the ponytail around itself and secure it with a hairband.

For the messy look, pull out some pieces of hair a little more than others so everything isn’t uniform. Use bobby pins to arrange the bun how you want it on your head, and be sure to leave out some front hair pieces to frame your face!

Give yourself a sleek and elegant look by pinning back the front pieces of your hair. It may be helpful to add a bit of hair gel to the hair closest to your scalp to keep it in place when you pin it behind your head using bobby pins.

Keep any unnecessary hair out of your face while bringing attention to your beautiful features. Style the rest of your hair sleek and straight as well or with timeless waves.

If you’re looking for something straightforward yet elegant, a low bun is the way to go. First, bring your hair into a ponytail at the base of your head. It helps if your hair is a little unwashed beforehand and be sure to add in hairspray prior to the next step.

Then, take the ponytail and wrap it around itself. Finally, secure it with a clear elastic or hairband.

Curls are a complement to any hair texture or length. Grab your curling wand or straightener and get to work! For tighter curls, keep your hair wrapped around your heating tool for longer. Give yourself a little variety by mixing how long you curl different sections.

Play around and find what best suits your face! Just make sure you add in some hairspray at the end so your curls will be ready to party all night long.

Depending on your level of experience with braiding, a crown braid may be meant for you. To achieve a crown braid, we recommend adding styling cream or skipping a wash day to make sure there’s enough texture in your hair for it to hold.

Curl your hair a little before parting it where you want the braid to start and french braid down one side until you have enough to wrap around your head and secure in place with bobby pins.

Who doesn’t love a matching little detail? We love the idea of matching your bouquet to the flowers in your hair. This would create the cohesive look and color scheme that every bride dreams of.

What’s even easier, though, is that the flowers can be real or artificial. Just make sure you have a few bobby pins in your hair color so you can pin the stems where you want them.

Are you a short-haired bride but still want to bring a little pizazz to your day? Go for a brooch or hairpiece to complement your dress!

Do a little research and find the one that matches the vibe you want and is as beautiful as you are. Then, just attach it before you walk down the aisle! They’re great for keeping your hair in perfectly in place while making a statement.

A wrapped ponytail is a playful yet sophisticated look that we love. This style only requires a hairband and a few bobby pins (preferably that match the color of your hair). Pull your hair to the back of your head where you want it, whether that’s a high or low ponytail, and secure it with the hairband.

Make sure you leave out a little piece of hair that you can wrap around the ponytail after you’ve secured it, so the hairband won’t show through. Add the bobby pins to keep everything in place, and bam!, you have an elevated look.
