How to Style Short Hair for a Special Occasion

Short hair can be incredibly versatile and stylish, but finding the right look for a special occasion can be a challenge. Here are Shear Intrigue's tips and ideas to help you style your short hair for that special occasion:

"Hair is a beautiful form of self-expression."

Go sleek and straight
A simple, straight hair style is always chic and sophisticated. Use a flat iron to smooth out your hair and add a bit of shine serum for extra polish. If you have shorter layers, you can use a small amount of pomade or wax to smooth them down and add some definition.

Add some volume
If you want to add a little more drama to your look, use a volumizing mousse or a dry texturizing spray to add some body to your hair. Use a round brush to lift your roots and create a voluminous look.

Play with texture
Short hair is the perfect length for experimenting with different textured styles. Use a pomade or wax to create a messy, tousled look or try a bedhead hairstyle for a laid-back, casual vibe.

Get creative with braids
Braids are a great way to add interest and style to short hair. Try a French braid along the crown of your head or a braided headband for a romantic, bohemian look.

Accessorize
Dress up your short hair with some hair accessories like barrettes, clips, or a statement headband. This is a quick and easy way to add some sparkle and glam to your look.
