30 Glamorous Baby Shower Hairstyles for ‘To-Be-Moms’

A baby shower is always an occasion very close to the heart of a to-be mother and she will want to look her best on that day.  Speaking of looks, the major style hunt would be for a perfect hairdo. On this special event of celebrating pregnancy and welcoming motherhood, her joy is immense.

If the hairstyle does not turn out satisfactory, it does get very upsetting. So generally, a mom-to-be would be on the lookout for baby shower hairstyles based on the texture, length and perhaps even the volume of her hair.

 

How to Pick the Right Baby Shower Hairstyle?

Being pregnant, we are already beginning to try on the image of a gentle and caring mother. The same image appears when we’re trying to pick the baby shower hairstyle.

Although current trends show us that moms-to-be can wear different hairstyles. Here are a few points to help make the right choice.

If the hair is short, the best option is to style it in a cute way using hot tools. Decorate the hair with different accessories. It’s better to choose hair bands and bobby pins with bows, flowers, or pearls. To create a soft look, avoid dark colors and leather materials.

Women with long hair have more options for a hairstyle. But first, they should decide if they want to put hair up or leave it loose.

Check the weather in case the baby shower will take place outside. It’s too hot to stay with long loose hair in summer, especially when you are heavily pregnant.

In this situation, it’s better to choose an updo. Put the hair in a low or medium-high bun. Leave a few wavy strands to frame the face. So the hairstyle will look subtle and feminine. Keep it nice and simple. In the end, the baby shower hairstyle should be casual, not bridal.

For women with extra-long hair, braids can be a perfect choice. They work perfectly for thick and frizzy hair because braiding takes less time than an updo. There are so many styles for braiding that any girl can find the one she likes. And if there are not enough of the lengths for a gorgeous braid, they can always use extensions.

The last option for a baby shower hairstyle is to keep it loose. It can be sleek hair with a one-side parting that looks chic. But since the baby shower implies a soft image, it’s better to pick loose waves or light curls. And finish the look with some floral accessories.
