Hair How-To: Love Headband Hairstyles? This Low Wedding Updo is Elegant, On Trend, and *Super* Easy

True story: We can’t get enough of hair accessories–and we’re not alone. Headband hairstyles made a big comeback this summer, as celebs and style stars alike accessorized their manes with crown-like toppers. With nuptial season still in full swing, pairing the headband trend with a low updo for wedding hair is just well, bridal brilliance.

From our go-to hair guru, Erin Ryser, this wedding updo actually starts out as a half-up, half-down hairstyle. Just a simple roll and twist from the bottom, as well as a few strategically-placed pins, and it instantly transforms into an elegant style, the perfect low updo for wedding guests, bridesmaids, or the bride! Adding a gold beaded headband gives the classic look a modern accent. Timeless and on-trend? Sounds like a perfect match to us.

Whether you’re heading to a wedding or attending a special event like homecoming, elegant headband hairstyles like this one will make you feel like a queen. You’re basically wearing a tiara, right?
