Editorial Guidelines Updated on March 16, 2018 Close Photo: Caroline Tran Photography If she's old enough to walk and talk, your flower girl most likely takes her role in the wedding pretty seriously. She's been practicing throwing those petals for weeks! And for good reason—before the bride walks down the aisle, all eyes will be on her. She also knows that part of nailing her job is looking her best, which is where an adorable, age-appropriate hairstyle comes in. How your flower girl ultimately chooses to wear her hair is dependent on a few things, but your preferences should obviously be one of them. Still, don't forget that kids are kids, and getting them to sit still for an elaborate updo that perfectly mimics your own might not be in cards. Plus, you'll want to ensure their hair is arranged in a way that will be comfortable throughout the ceremony and reception. With that in mind, we've rounded up a few easily-achievable, elegant looks that'll suit every flower girls' attention span. And with styles for long, short, curly, natural, and baby-fine locks, there's a look here that's bound to work with your favorite little one's hair. 01 of 26 Braided Twist Side Ponytail Callie Manion Photography Reinforcing a twisted side ponytail with a braid underneath meant this flower girl could shimmy and shake all night long, with no risk of flyaways. 02 of 26 Wrapped Side Ponytail Pahountis Photography Wrapping a loose section of hair around the elastic band instantly upgraded this flower girl's ponytail. 03 of 26 Natural Curls Tec Petaja This beauty played up her natural curls with a pink wildflower and yellow hydrangea headband. 39 Ways to Wear Your Hair Down for Your Wedding 04 of 26 Loose Twist Amy Arrington Photography A curly piece of white andromeda mimicked the wave of this simple pinned-back twist. 05 of 26 Buns and Flower Crowns Almond Leaf Studios The only thing cuter than a flower girl in a classic high bun and flower crown?
