Many people believe that it is difficult to find a cute hairstyle with braids for short hair. Especially since without length it can be difficult for the sections in braids to stay together and not unravel. But messy styles are in – even for formal events – so those with short cuts should put aside old-fashioned ideas and embrace beautiful braids.

If you have shorter hair, you can experiment with braids as details. Short headband braids, braided bangs and braids in half-up hairstyles can have different textures and braided patterns. You can alternate between thicker and thinner braids, try asymmetrical styles, master new braiding techniques and try new trendy hair colors to take your short hairstyles to a new level. Here are some creative examples of braided styles for shorter hair.

This hairstyle can work both formally and casually. The carefully coiffed tousled waves for a choppy bob are very chic. If you want to make the hairstyle even more beautiful, add a lace braid for short hair that drowns in those wild waves.

Side braids are a quick way to add pizzazz to any hairstyle because they provide a subtle bit of texture that won't overwhelm your entire look. They also make an excellent accent for formal looks that require a bit of edginess but still need to suit a conservative audience.
