25 Bold Bouffant Hairstyles

From Flirty Bookworm Pictorials to Jackie O-Inspired Starlets

— February 5, 2013 — Fashion
The bouffant hairstyle has been a favorite amongst women young and old alike, and never fails to steal the spotlight as seen within these fashion editorials. A bouffant is essentially a large, up-done hairstyle that is oversized, elegant and above all fabulous. These photo shoots use the styling to help emphasis the over-the-top opulent fashions that the models are wearing and send the message home that these girls are flirtatious and fun.

In recent years, we've seen a shift from clean styling to more elaborate hairstyles and accessories that are much more reminscent of yesteryear's trends from the 60s through to the 80s. The bouffant hairstyle isn't for the faint of heart; it requires a certain level of confidence to be rocked because when your hair is that big, you'll be turning heads left, right and centre.
