5 Updos For Girls With Medium-Length Curly Hair

Girls with medium-length curly locks can wear them in an array of braided and twisted updo hairstyles for formal occasions such as prom, weddings, or other formal events. This sophisticated look makes a lasting impression!

1. French Twists

The French twist is an iconic, elegant updo worn for nearly any special event or formal gathering. Add some hair pins or flowers for a truly personal look to give this style even more character and make it stand out. This hairstyle makes an impressionful first impression at weddings or parties alike!

To recreate this hairstyle:

– Brush through and detangle your locks

– Part it to one side, leaving out some face-framing pieces

– Gather the remaining hair into a loose, low French twist, securing it with bobby pins

– Add decorative rhinestone clips for an added splash of shimmer

2. High Ponytail

A classic high ponytail is an ideal style for any occasion. Add small braids before wrapping its base to add volume and elevate its look. Applying hair products formulated to increase volume will create full and healthy-looking locks. Use Yarok Feed Your Hold hairspray for ultimate hold before wrapping the base around a rubber band.

3. Loose Curls

Looser curls have an inviting and free-spirited charm that adds an air of freshness. Start by cleaning and detangling your hair, using a cleansing conditioner or co-wash. Style your hair with a light-hold hairspray or texture enhancer to keep the curls in place and add volume. Secure half of your locks into two middle-parted pigtails before bobby pining back for an undone updo with plenty of books!

4. Textured Bun

This textured topknot is one of the hottest updo trends and is ideal for medium-length hair. Wear it casually for poolside parties with cute ribbons attached, or add more formal touches for weddings, proms, or black tie events. Create the bun from a ponytail, leaving it loose. Gather strands from the crown, pin them randomly around its base, and finish with hairspray for added hold.

5. French Twists

Add sparkle with a shimmery hairpiece for an extra glamorous look, or soften up the look by pairing thick curtain bangs that softly frame your face. This combination works exceptionally well on triangle face shapes that pair with curlier or wavy hair textures.
