Quick Facts

Why Brides Love The Boho Wedding Hair Updo

The boho wedding hair updo gives brides that effortlessly romantic look they've been dreaming of—soft, textured, and full of movement without feeling overdone. It's the perfect balance between polished and relaxed, letting you feel like the most beautiful version of yourself while staying true to a free-spirited, natural aesthetic. Brides love how it photographs from every angle, capturing those loose tendrils and organic texture that make each moment feel intimate and timeless.

Beyond the dreamy visuals, this style is incredibly practical for all-day wear. The updo keeps hair secure through windy outdoor ceremonies, emotional hugs, and hours of dancing, while still maintaining that soft, undone vibe. It works beautifully with veils, flower crowns, and delicate hair accessories, and won't feel heavy or stiff as the day goes on—just romantic, comfortable, and completely you.

Prep & Longevity Tips

How To Create A Boho Wedding Hair Updo

  1. Prep the Hair

    Prep hair with texturizing spray on dry or second-day hair, then create loose waves with a curling wand.

  2. Build Soft Volume

    Gently tease the crown and mid-lengths for natural volume, then smooth the top layer lightly with fingers.

  3. Gather and Twist

    Gather hair loosely at the nape, twist sections irregularly, and pin them into a soft, undone bun shape.

  4. Secure the Structure

    Secure with bobby pins in multiple directions, leaving some ends and tendrils free for organic texture.

  5. Finish and Soften

    Gently pull and loosen sections around the face and throughout the updo, then mist with flexible hairspray for romantic, lasting softness.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a boho wedding hair updo work for thin or fine hair?

Absolutely! Use clip-in extensions for added thickness and tease sections gently to create the illusion of fuller, more textured hair. The loose, undone style naturally camouflages fine hair beautifully.

Will this style hold up in humidity or outdoor weddings?

Yes, when prepped correctly with texturizing products and secured with plenty of pins, the boho updo is surprisingly durable. The relaxed texture actually works with humidity rather than against it, maintaining that soft, romantic look.

Can I wear a veil with a boho wedding hair updo?

Definitely! Place the veil just below the updo for a seamless look, or drape a cathedral veil over the style for your ceremony, then remove it later. The textured base provides excellent grip for veil combs.

How far in advance should I do a hair trial for this style?

Schedule your trial 2-3 months before the wedding so you have time to adjust the texture, placement, and accessories. Bring inspiration photos and your veil to ensure everything works together perfectly.
