Cute Birthday Hairstyles

Birthday coming up?! Happy (early) birthday, queen! It’s your special day so of course, you want to have special hair for the occasion. We know it can be tricky finding the perfect birthday hair to match your outfit. We thought we would help you get into the birthday spirit with some cute birthday hairstyle ideas to get inspired by. Scroll through some of our birthday hairstyles picks and let us know which one(s) is your favorite!

It’s your birthday and that means you can be a little ‘extra’ for the occasion. Why not?! We thought this hair accessory was so unique and fun for a birthday hairstyle. The look is really simple with a half up bun to allow the accessory to be the focus.

Add some fun color to your birthday hair with mini hairbands. This is a major 90’s throwback and we’re totally here for it for a birthday look. Get creative with the design and use colors that match your birthday outfit.

Ok, can we have a moment for this hair idea?! Adding GLITTER to the part of your hairstyle? Ok! That’s certainly one way to add major glam to your birthday hairstyle.

Let everyone know it’s your birthday with a headband that says it loud and proud. We really love the subtle wave added to hair here to make the look modern, trendy and birthday ready.

A less obvious birthday headband option is a printed headband. Of course, this is a hairstyle you can rock anytime, but don’t underestimate the power of a simple look for your special day. If you want to add a little pop of color or print to your look – add a headband.

Whether you have extra long extensions or not, it’s all about the wavy hair right now. It’s stylish and sexy – both attributes we want to feel on our birthday. Style in a center part for more drama.

Waves not really your thing? Bouncy curls may be more your speed. This is a major glam moment that we’re in love with for any birthday. A deep center part adds more volume and bounce to the hair.

How is this for birthday hair? Braid + glitter = we’re in love! We especially love the fact that the braid was parted to create this triangle shape to add a bit of edge to the look.

Expect to see a lot of braids on the birthday hairstyles list. Let’s face it, braids have a way of elevating every hairstyle. We thought this was such a gorgeous pigtail braid look, with the wrapped detailing at the end and center of the braids.

Keep your birthday hairstyle simple and festive with this cute idea. A messy bun hasn’t looked this birthday ready in a while – don’t you agree? It is amazing what a few rhinestone bobby pins can do to transform a messy bun.

Messy bun not really your speed, or can’t ever seem to get it the right kind of messy? Switch it out for a sleek high ponytail like this! Again, sliding in a crystal pin gives you just enough birthday festivity.

Celebrate your day of birth in style and say it with your hair! How cute are these ‘dirty thirty’ pins? Even with your hair straight, the custom pins turn your hair from average to birthday ready.

One headband? No, we’re stacking headbands for your birthday! We thought this was such a creative way to style hair for a birthday (or any other occasion for that matter). Tie hair back around the headbands to help hold them in place and you’ve got a gorgeous hairstyle.

Notice a theme? Rhinestone (or crystal) hair pins are the way to go when it comes to birthday hair! They really allow you to keep your hair simple, while still adding that birthday pop to the look.
