Wedding season means dancing, celebrating, and of course, dressing up. Along with deciding what to wear to each nuptial comes the dilemma of how to wear your hair. And while it would be nice to be able to get a professional ‘do every time, having a go-to easy wedding guest hairstyle you can DIY is always a good idea.

The great thing about this half updo? It’s perfect for everything from the most casual vows to a formal event. In just five steps, your hair is ready for any special occasion!

One less decision during a busy RSVP season sounds good, right? Here’s how to do wedding guest hair that will blow everyone away–without outshining the bride.

Half-Up Wedding Guest Hair:

Instructions:

Step 1: Start with your hair down. Part your hair down the middle of your head, but only halfway.

Step 2: Then part your hair into three sections. (Separate into one section in the middle, and then one on each side).

Step 3: Brush and braid each section.

Step 4: Wrap/twist the braids into mini buns or Bantu knots.

Step 5: Place the rest of your hair into a half-up half-down hairstyle!

(Style and accessorize this look with your favorite wedding guest dress and jewelry from Lulus!)
