Hairstyles and the Earrings that Accent Them

March 30, 2020

There is a bit more to choosing a pair of earrings than picking red earrings for a red dress. What if you have long hair? What if your hair is curly? Let us answer some of these questions and more.

Long Hair

Long hair tends to cover your ears and frame your face. That might make it a bit hard to decide what types of earrings to wear.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           For simplicity’s sake, linear drops and hoop earrings are the best choice with long hair. They will stand out from your hair. Fun earrings like tassels and long chains are perfect ways to complement your hair.

Gemstone studs can also be a choice since they will show whenever your hair is pulled back.

Here are more earrings that work well with long hair:

Short Hair

Short hair can be really cute, and youthful.                                                                                    This playful hairstyle allows you to make all types of earring choices.                                                                                          For the most part, studs, cuffs and multiple piercing really stand out with this type of haircut.                                                                                                        When going for dramatic, the chandelier earring will really draw attention to your face. You also look great in chunky statement earrings, both long and short.

Here are some more earrings that pair will with short hair.

Shoulder Length Hair

Shoulder length hair creates a stopping point in your appearance as the ends of your hair hit your shoulders. This is a natural frame for your face.                                                                                                                        This hairstyle is perfect for chandelier and statement earrings because those earrings add a point of interest to your face. Smaller earrings may get lost in your hair and not draw attention to your face.                                                                                                                                  You are lucky; you get to wear those trendy, colorful big earrings with your hair.

These earrings pair will with shoulder length hair.

Curly Hair

Curly hair presents a problem because it tends to overwhelm your face and draw away from your earrings.                                                                                                The best choice for curly hair is a big pair of hoops since they tend to complement the curves of your hair while not being tangled up in it.                                                                                                                                                           Of course, if you are looking for drama, big, bold pair of statement earrings always look great with your curls.

Hair Up, Down and Sideways

The perfect earrings for these hairstyles are drop earrings in bright colors for casual days and sophisticated gemstones for evenings out.                                                                                                                                          The updo and chignon add an element of class to your appearance, and drop earrings are the fashionable touch to accent your face.

 A high ponytail is the perfect hairstyle for large statement earrings since the ponytail is equally dramatic. There is a lot of movement in the ponytail, so there can be an equal amount of movement in your earrings. Dangles work very well here.

A low ponytail is much more casual and less energetic that the high ponytail, so you can wear colorful drops with this hairstyle.

The side swept hair offers one ear to decorate with something elegant since this is a sophisticated hairstyle. Short gemstone drop earrings go well here.

Here are some more earrings that go well with the upswept look:

No matter what hairstyle you have, you can never go wrong with choosing the earrings that make you happy to wear.
