10. Natural Texture
Reflect the natural elements of a boho theme by going for natural curls. Feel the free-spirited aesthetic by letting your natural hair shine and by adding a striking hairpiece or flower crown for a finishing touch.
11. Floral Details
If you prefer minimal touches, opt for a few floral details, such as pops of baby’s breath, greenery or minimal blooms, rather than a full-on floral crown. This will add subtle color and texture to your waves while matching a boho aesthetic perfectly.
12. The Messy Undo
An updo is a classic style for any theme, but you can add a boho twist with an undo. Take out a few curls from your bun to frame your face which adds to the messy and undone look. This hairstyle leans perfectly into the free-spirited nature of a boho wedding.
13. Half Up Half Down

14. Side Florals
One of the key features of boho wedding hairstyles is the undone and romantically edgy vibe. So add in a side floral to give an asymmetric and off-balance look to your hair. This style perfectly portrays an effortless look while still maintaining a gorgeous and chic aesthetic.
15. Beachy Waves
Beach waves are a perfect option for minimal boho wedding hairstyles. If you’re looking for something simple with little effort, this one is for you! Make sure to leave the ends out when curling, and lightly pull your hair for the beachy look. Also, try using a texturizing spray for volume while maintaining a messy chic vibe.

Make your hair instantly bohemian with a flower crown. Nothing says boho chic quite like it! Include earthy-toned flowers for a trendy vibe, such as baby’s breath. It’s a gorgeous contrast to your hair and can even replace a bouquet!

18. Braided Updo
Mix glamour into your boho wedding hairstyle with a braided updo. This super-romantic style is ideal for any bride! It works for both reserved brides who want a clean look, and brides who want to make their hair a focal point with dramatic oversized braids and large florals.

Make a statement with an eye-catching accessory. Create a boho-chic aesthetic with a hat, beads, jewels or embellished chain. In fact, this is a great option if you’re not as keen on flowers! The best part is that it works with all hair textures to create an eye-catching hairstyle.
