How to: Updos for Short Hair (with Pictures)

Beautiful updos are also available for short hair! These pictures show how to do updos for short hair.

Half Hair Updo

This updo is great for short hair that is at least as long as your earlobes. However, you can also do it with shorter sides, as long as the hair quiff is long enough to tease it a bit, push it up and pin it up.

Variation two

If your sides end at least at the level of your earlobes, you can also pin all your hair. Knock in the top quaff once and pin it, simply twist in the back and side strands and also pin them with bobby pins. You can use this twisted variant with all hair lengths from five centimeters.

Updo for very short hair

You should generally remember this trick, it is also suitable for very short hair and is versatile. Just start with a strand of hair from the front cover hair. Twist it backwards, take the next hair in from the front and continue winding. At the end, simply pin it on the side.

The cheating hairstyle with cloth

This looks like more than it is. Suitable for mushroom heads and longer pixies. The front outer hair part is blown smooth to the front, the rest of the hair is pushed back. At the back of the head, the top hair should be teased up as much as possible and fixed with hairspray. To make sure that the cloth will hold, it is best to fix it with Bobby Pins on the sides.

For Bobs on earlobe length

Blow-dry the front strand diagonally straight forward. Tease the back and pin. Guide the side strands (depending on length) to the back and tie them together over the pinned strands to form a mini braid.

Braided pony part

This updo works even with much shorter hair, but you need top hair that is at least ten centimeters long. When braiding, you can easily peek out the shorter ends, because you can simply hide them under the braid later with small clips.

You need chin-length hair for this

This top knot works with at least chin-length hair. Tie a braid at the back of your head and then twist in and pin the strands. If you have an even shorter bob that can at least be tied back into a braid, you can also use a hairpiece to trick it. They are now available in pretty versions.

From Pixie-Cut feasible

With short hairstyles that have a longer top hair section, this pinned variant is very easy to do. With the side sections you just have to make sure that you don’t see any pinned hair ends, you should twist them in as much as possible. You can twist the upper outer hairs on curlers to get the volume on the top of the head (the size depends on the length of your hair, the longer the larger). Then pin the individual curls at the end of the hair.

Twist it!

Another updo for short hair that works on the “twist and pin” principle. Simply twist your hair into small snails and secure with hairpins. For the glamor factor, you don’t twist the top hair tightly, but style a more voluminous great.
