Sometimes your outfit dictates your hairstyle. In the case of a one-shoulder dress, showing off your bare arm and collarbone is the key to make a statement. Pulling all of your hair up is an easy way to go, but there are a variety of other hairstyles that will make the look your own.

Hairstyle Ideas for One-Shoulder Dress

Not every hairstyle looks good with every dress you wear. Combining the hairstyle and dress is the key to look at your best. Below are our top 25 hairstyles for showing off a stunning one-shoulder dress.

1. Short Bob

A short bob is an ideal way to flaunt one’s face cut and shoulders. Recreate this style by chopping the hair to a jaw-length haircut uniform in length all over the head. Flaunt the one-shoulder dress flawlessly with this simple middle-parted hair look. 

2. Side Ponytail

There is no need to cut down your precious locks to show off the exposed shoulder. Brush the strands with a side part and secure them in a low side ponytail without much effort. Add waves, curls, or leave the ponytail simply straight depending on your mood.

3. Layered Lob + Bangs

Bangs are timeless and so is this layered lob hair look. This hairstyle is ideal for blonde-haired ladies with the wispy front strands skimming the eyebrows combined with soft layers sitting on the shoulders accentuating the bare arm. 

4. Elegant Updo

Look like an ethereal princess with this elegant hairstyle. The sides are braided with loose loops and secured in a messy low bun with some wavy strands loose at the front. Brides and bridesmaids rocking a one-shoulder dress can top off the look with an embellished crown.

5. Highlighted Afro Curls

Amp up natural afro curls by trimming them in layers to frame the face playfully. Dye them in a chocolate brown base shade with the tips being colored in a rich caramel hue for a two-toned appeal. Hand-tousle the kinky coils and the style is done.
