How to style a wedding veil with short hair

If you have short hair and are wondering how to style a veil on your wedding day, you're not alone. While long locks may seem like the traditional choice for a bridal veil, there are plenty of options for brides with shorter hair as well. In this blog post, we'll explore 5 ways to style a wedding veil with short hair and give you some inspiration for your big day.

  1. Use a headband or hair clip to secure the veil. If you have shorter hair or bangs that may not hold a comb-style veil in place, a headband or hair clip can be a great alternative. Here at tessakim.com, we can customize almost any veil with a headband or clip upon request. 

  2. Pin the veil into an updo or half-up half-down style. If you're planning on wearing your hair up on your wedding day, you can easily incorporate a veil by pinning it into your updo. Simply gather your hair into a bun or ponytail and pin the veil into place. For a half-up half-down style, gather the top half of your hair into a ponytail or bun and then pin the veil into place. This will give the veil's comb a more stable base to hold onto.

  3. Use bobby pins to secure the veil. If you have shorter hair and are concerned about the veil falling out, bobby pins can be a great way to keep it in place. Simply gather the veil into the desired style and then use bobby pins to secure it to your head.

  4. Consider a birdcage veil. Birdcage veils are a great option for brides with short hair because they are shorter and sit closer to the head. They can be secured with a comb or headband and offer a cute and stylish vintage-inspired look.

  5. Try a drop veil. Drop veils are a popular choice for brides with shorter hair because they are easy to secure and sit on top of the head like a crown. Simply slide the veil onto your head and let it fall into place for a romantic and ethereal look.

Overall, there are plenty of options for styling a veil with short hair on your wedding day. Whether you go for a headband, updo, or drop veil, there's a style that's perfect for you. Don't let short hair keep you from wearing a veil on your big day – there are plenty of ways to make it work.
