Sometimes picking the perfect hairstyle is just as important as picking the perfect outfit. Whether you’re slipping into a sleek evening gown, rocking a casual sundress, or strutting in a power suit, the right hairstyle can take your look from good to unforgettable. From effortless beach waves that complement a flowy dress to polished updo’s that scream sophistication with that little black dress. Let’s dive into the types of hairstyles that will fit best with your outfits!
Soft or Loose Curls
If you are planning to wear a strapless or Bandeau dress – style it with open hair, giving it soft or loose curls. It complements the elegance and simplicity of strapless dresses while adding movement through your hair.
You want to show off your neckline or collarbone, then you can keep one side of your hair in the front, and the other side on your back.
Sleek High Ponytail or Bun
A sleek high bun or ponytail goes well with a turtleneck or halter dresses. It adds height and emphasizes the sharp lines of a halter dress, whereas for high neck it looks classy.
Side Part or Loose Curls
V-neck dress looks better when hair is left open with a side part. You can style it with either adding soft curls, coils, defines waves, or your natural curls.
It creates a perfect contrast while drawing attention to the neckline.
Romantic Low Chignon or Messy Bun
An off-shoulder dress uplifts your look with a romantic low chignon or a messy bun. Whether it’s a casual wear or your glamorous evening gown – low buns emphasize your look.
It creates a flattering frame for your neck and shoulders, makes you look elegant, keeps you chic and relaxed.
Half-up, Half-down
A dress that has the sweetheart neckline can be best styled with half-up and half-down or soft updo.
The soft and feminine shape balances the shape with a romantic half-up hairstyle.
Sleek Bob or Straight
The boat neck is clean and modern, so a sleek bob or straight – polished hair keeps your look chic and symmetrical, showing sharp lines of the neckline.
Vintage Roll
A-line dresses tend to have a feminine, retro-vibe. Pairing them with vintage curls or a classic pin-up roll enhances the retro charm without overpowering the look.
Loose Ponytail
The draping nature of a cowl-neck dress can be paired up with a loose ponytail, keeping your hair clean and elegant, letting the neckline take the center stage.
Boho Braids
With a spaghetti strap dress, you can add texture and carefree vibe with boho braids or leave your hair loose and natural for that laid-back, effortless style.
So, why settle for a “just rolled out of bed” look when you can match your hair to your outfit like a true style pro!
