Cute Shoulder Length Hair Styles for Date Night
1. Side Part With a Braided Crown
Who doesn’t love a date with great taste and one who’s on top of the trends? Pull your hair up, but add a little trendy touch for date night. Try a braided crown on one side of your hair that will show off your stylish side. Pull out some hair around your front hairline for a ritzy finish that makes the look. Don’t be surprised if your date starts asking you for fashion and style tips!
2. Wavy Tresses with a Fringe
Bowling or ping-pong? Take your pick and complement game night with your date with a fun hairstyle. Style your fringe for date night with a piece-y and airy feel. Finish off the remainder of hair with a touch of loose waves. Win or lose, give your date some competitive edge will love this carefree look.
3. Sleek Half Updo
Keep it simple with a sleek pulled back half-updo. This style is your go-to versatile hairstyle for a semi-formal date night. And, if this date involves meeting the parents, what better way to show off your beautiful face while still keeping some of your hair down? If cowlicks are getting in the way, keep them tame with the help of some hair gel, like TRESemmé TRES Two Mega Firm Control Gel, to ensure those edges stay clean and flyaway-free.
4. Shoulder Length Hair Styles Smooth Waves
Heading out to a musical or a luxe five-star restaurant? Add an elegant touch to shoulder length hair with smooth, vintage-inspired waves. This hairstyle rises to the occasion with its sexy and feminine touch.
5. Unicorn Braid
Maybe a stroll in the park on a cool summer night is more up your alley for date night. Show off your shoulder-grazing length by adding a unique unicorn braid. Start by taking three pieces of hair at the crown of your head and begin doing a dutch braid, crossing pieces under the middle section instead of over. Once you reach the middle of the back of your head, secure the braid with a hair elastic. To make sure everything stays in place, spray TRESemmé Compressed Micro Mist Smooth Hold Level 2 Hair Spray all over the braid. We love this hair spray because it will lock everything in place without making your hair feel crunchy.
6. Glamorous Curls
Feeling cute and flirty? Give your mane some touchable and bouncy romantic curls. Your curls are bound to win some flattering compliments from your lovely date. Wear this style to a jazz concert or have your curls blowing with the wind while you’re cruising around town. Be sure to use some mousse, like Suave Extra Hold Shaping Mousse to help you achieve full, bouncy curls.
7. Fun Ponytail
No need to feel like plain Jane because your nerves have you worked up for your first Tinder meeting! Keep your shoulder length hairstyles for date night simple with a ponytail. This style is ideal for a casual, low-key meet-up. Play around with tendrils at the front hairline to add a carefree yet stylish touch to your hairstyle.
