Prev1 of 60Next


We can imagine your excitement and desire to look awesome on the big day. The choice of a wedding hairstyle is as important as the choice of your bridal gown. Besides, these two should be in harmony with each other and the style of your wedding. Every bride has her own likings, preferences, individual hair texture and length. Luckily there are so many stunning black wedding hairstyles, that there shouldn’t be any problem for brides to choose something that will duly reflect their beauty. We have rounded up 60 most amazing wedding hairstyles for long and any varied hair lengths from very simple to the most intricate and sophisticated ones.





What Options Do You Actually Have, Dear African American Brides?


So many, indeed. Think of what kind of bride you’d like to be: traditional and elegant, innocent and romantic, chic and glamorous, unconventional and bohemian, beach and sporty? You can bring any of these looks to life, and style your hair accordingly.


Think also whether you want an updo or downdo, half up and half down, maybe? Raising your hair up, you open your face and make it the focal point of your look. Beautiful jewel earrings are one of the best embellishments, paired with an elegant updo. If your hair lacks length or volume, consider usage of clip-in extensions. Nowadays you can really do with your hair whatever you like, as long as it’s healthy.



The Best Black Wedding Hairstyles For Any Taste


Do you want a short messy hairstyle with a veil or a trendy updo with curls and accessories for your special day? Anyway, look at these pictures and get your inspiration, we gathered the most interesting variants for you to make your wedding preparations easier!



#1: Braided Beauty



Women with natural hair may find it difficult to find an updo that feels formal and does not require hot tools. If you hair is too short to achieve this low bun on its own, you can easily braid in added hair to pull off the look. While simple in nature, this is a good starting point for add-ons like jeweled barrettes and other hair accessories.




#2: Frills and Thrills


There is nothing low key about this hairstyle—you are the bride and everyone will know it. If the white dress isn’t enough, elevate your double roll black wedding hairstyle with pearl pins and a frilly headband. It’s a memorable look for your fairytale nuptial day.




#3: Circles of Love


Sometimes it is hard to see designs and subtle accents on dark hair, that’s why it is important to make them stand out on your special day so that they don’t get lost. If you are wearing a polished black hair updo for your wedding, it is important to incorporate a bit of texture at the expense of exquisite details. This look artfully combines pin curls and braids for a unique style.




#4: Buttery Curls


Similar to the look above, this hairdo also uses pin curls as the basis for the wedding style. The result is the soft, almost wave-like hairdo that is incredibly romantic. Don’t style with too many hair accessories or a veil – you do not want to hide those cuties, right?




#5: Grecian Locks


This is a prime example of how fabulously locked hair can work in a wedding hairstyle for black women. If the locks are small enough, they can easily be manipulated into a variety of updos like this Grecian braid crown. Gold beaded accents will make it more elegant.




#6: Waterfall Curls with Bang


Curly hair already has a fair amount of texture, especially when it comes to tight curls. If you want to add something special on top of that, it’s important to make sure it doesn’t argue with what is on the bottom. A waterfall braid easily accents your curly style without taking too much away from it.




#7: Twisted and Regal


The only downside about fancy braided and twisted updos is that all the spice of the look can sometimes appear hidden when glancing at the wearer from the front. To combat the flat look, you need a style that is thick enough to be seen from all angles. From the front this looks like a beautiful braided crown and from the back it is an elaborate twisted pin-up.




#8: Bold and Braided


Not every updo hairstyle for black women has to be super sleek or elegant. If your personality is lively, why not to have some fun with your look on your big day. Serve up a bit of attitude with a sassy side bang and braided back.




#9: Vintage Pin-Up


Give your style a vintage twist with this classic pin-up girl look. It is romantic and effortlessly chic without the feel of trying too hard. Plus, it can easily be dressed up with a gilded barrette or fascinator.




#10: Bouquet of Curls


Take a cue from your floral arrangements and create a unique bun that has the texture and whimsy of a bouquet of roses. The curls mimic the petals and the headband is like a ribbon tying them all together. It’s a gorgeous option for a traditional bride.




#11: Flawless Finger Waves


Women with short hair may find it difficult to create an appealing African-American wedding hairstyle because they feel that their options are limited by length. For those who don’t want to wear extensions or braids, finger waves are glamorous and have a wonderful retro vibe.




#12: Floating in Flowers


Loose curls are fun, but they can be hard to wear with a hair accessory if you want it to be noticed. By only pinning the bottom of your curled look, you create a shape and place to pin a jeweled flower. The best part is that the front still maintains volume and individual curls so that it doesn’t look flat.




#13: Vision in White


A half-up half-down hairdo is always showy on women with long hair, but it may be a bit too reserved for a more outspoken bride. This is where accessories come into play: a jeweled headpiece helps you look like a bohemian princess, and the finished style comes out to be anything but ordinary.




#14: Draped in Diamonds


This black wedding hairstyle is far from being boring or hackneyed. With sparkles at every head turn, a big bold bun and a long curl, it is a surefire way to make a dramatic entrance.




#15: Cinnamon Twisted Updo with Side Bang


A great option for women with medium length hair, this low curled style shows how you can achieve a full updo. While the side bang with bun is absolutely gorgeous in texture and silhouette, what makes this look truly stand out is the warm cinnamon hair color. The mix of brown and red hues can warm golden brown complexions and make them radiate.




#16: On a Roll


We are familiar with pin curls and the flat texture they can create, but you can also use curls to create a more of a 3D roll that won’t stick as closely to the head. This is especially beneficial for women with round faces who want to add more length to their bridal look.




#17: Pretty Princess Roll


Your wedding day should feel like a fairytale, so why not to choose a princess-inspired black updo hairstyle for your ceremony and celebration? The roll on its own is very polished and minimal, so if you want to elevate it, try incorporating a few bedazzled combs.




#18: Marvelous Multiple Flowers


Flower crowns are not just for music festivals and Instagram photos. You can also use bright buds to give your braided bun a fanciful touch. If you are going for a non-traditional outfit, try wearing an equally bright dress for a cohesive look.




#19: Box Braid Bun


While many women use box braids as a protective style in the summer, they can also be worn as a fun look all year long. The thick style allows you to make a full bun that can be easily accented with a jeweled band and veil. With no hair in your face, a high bun will let your beautiful makeup truly shine.




#20: Sassy Side Bun


A side bun is definitely one of the most popular wedding hairstyles for black women because it is polished, but also can last throughout a night of partying and fun without coming undone. Pair with a red lip color and plenty of bling to make it more formal.




#21: Wedding Hairstyle With Rows Of Twists


Black hair in twists and braids is a miracle! The hairstyle looks compact, but the twists appear chunky and generous. The star-like parting is the wow factor of this hairstyle. African American ladies can afford eye-catching accessories to complete such a bright updo without a fear to look too gaudy.




#22: Black Wispy Updo With A Cluster Of Flowers


Brides with relaxed black locks can pick up the trend towards messy updos. The wispy texture of this hairstyle makes it breathe with lightness. A cluster of snow white flowers instantly increases the degree of its festivity. Let them be different in size and slightly different in design. Choose floral earrings to complete the look.




#23: A Showy Wedding Hairstyle For Short Natural Hair


If hair extensions are not an option for you, you can nevertheless look fantastic with your natural hair on your wedding day. It’s amazing, this girl simply had her natural kinky hair raised and embellished with a delicate perfectly matching hair accessory, and you see the result: it’s breathtaking!




#24: Big Curly Hair For Wedding

A minimalistic jumpsuit instead of a wedding gown, snow white bikes instead of a limo and a short natural afro instead of sophisticated hairstyles with a bridal veil – wow!
