2. Fun Faux Bob
For a fun, vintage-inspired look, try a faux bob. Spritz your hair with texturizing spray to enhance your hair’s natural texture (if you have naturally straight hair, you may want to consider curling it first). Pull hair back and make a loose braid. Allow shorter layers of a few pieces to naturally fall out. Roll the braid underneath and tuck at the nape of the neck. Secure with bobby pins.

3. Flirty High Pony
This quick, no-fuss hairstyle can be achieved in a matter of seconds. Simply secure all your hair at the top of your head and wrap a small section of the ponytail around the elastic to give the look a bit more polish. This style can be dressed up or down, depending on your dress and accessories.

4. Sleek and Straight
Proof that a simple hairstyle doesn’t mean boring. Super sleek strands add a bit of sophistication to any wedding guest look. Start with wet hair and part your strands down the center of your head. Blow-dry straight with a smoothing balm. After your hair is dry, pass a flat iron through your strands from root to tip. Finish with a hair oil for added shine.

6. Tousled Waves
Equal parts old Hollywood and modern, tousled waves are a classic option. Just take sections of your hair, varying in size, and wrap around a curling wand. Once the entire hair has been curled, you can keep them tight, or run your fingers through them for a beachy waves.

7. VOLUMINOUS HALF-UP, HALF-DOWN
This hybrid style makes any wedding guest look a little more glamorous (with no added effort). Divide your hair horizontally from ear to ear and tease a little volume into the top section of hair by backcombing with a fine-tooth comb. Secure that section with an elastic and smooth out the bottom section with a flat iron.
