Indian bridal hairstyles are known for their intricate beauty, often incorporating braids, buns, and a variety of accessories like flowers and jewellery. The chosen hairstyle should complement the dupatta or veil, as well as the makeup and outfit. Here are some tips and hairstyle ideas for an Indian wedding:
- Consider the climate and venue to ensure comfort and practicality.
- Opt for a hairstyle that suits your face shape and personal style while reflecting cultural heritage.
- Conduct a trial run to ensure the hairstyle suits your expectations and can last the duration of the event.
- For short hair, try an easy chignon, a classic braid, or a voluminous messy bun.
- For long hair, consider a loose romantic braid, an elaborate poola jada braid, or a dramatic centre-parted bun.
- Add flowers like jasmine or roses, or jewellery like maang teeka and jhumar, to enhance the hairstyle.
- Experiment with different braiding techniques like French, fishtail, or Dutch braids to create unique looks.
- For a simple yet elegant style, go for loose waves or soft curls with a half-updo.
- For something more dramatic, try a curly tendril updo or a fancy clip curly bun.
- If you're feeling creative, try a mermaid twist, a puffed fishtail braid, or a daisy braid with flowers at every cross.

What You'll Learn
How to make a simple braid for an Indian wedding
A simple braid is a versatile hairstyle that can be dressed up or down for an Indian wedding. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to create a simple braid for an Indian wedding:
Start with clean, dry hair. If your hair is prone to tangles, use a detangling spray or leave-in conditioner before styling.
Using a brush or comb, create a straight centre or side part, depending on your preference. This will help you achieve a neat and sleek look.
Gather all your hair, including your fringe or bangs, and divide it into three equal sections at the nape of your neck.
Begin braiding by crossing the left section over the middle section, then cross the right section over what was previously the middle section.
Continue braiding by alternately crossing the left and right sections over the middle section in a smooth, downward motion. Make sure the braid is tight and secure.
Once you reach the end of your hair, secure the braid with a hair tie or elastic. You can use a clear or neutral-coloured hair tie to make it less noticeable.
To finish the look, you can add accessories to your braid, such as fresh flowers, pearls, or traditional Indian hair jewellery like maang tikka or gajra.
This simple braid can be dressed up or down depending on your preference and the overall style of the Indian wedding. For a more elegant or formal look, consider incorporating fresh flowers or delicate jewellery into your braid. For a more casual or relaxed wedding, you might choose to wear your braid without any accessories, or perhaps add a single statement piece such as a maang tikka.

How to make a bun for an Indian wedding
Preparation
Wash and condition your hair the day before your wedding to help maintain its natural luster. If you have frizzy or curly hair, consider keeping it natural and skipping the straightener.
Classic Bun
The classic bun is a popular choice for Indian weddings as it can secure the dupatta elegantly while adding height and volume. You can add flowers, such as jasmine, roses, or carnations, to the bun for a traditional touch.
Sleek High Bun
For a modern and sleek look, opt for a high bun with a sharp center part. This style pairs well with a minimalist or contemporary outfit.
Low Bun
A low bun is a versatile option that can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. For a simple and elegant look, go for a sleek and shiny low bun. To add a bit of romance, try a textured low bun with curled tendrils and a pearl and crystal hairpiece.
Braided Bun
For a unique twist, incorporate braids into your bun. You can go for a loose French braided side chignon or a braided top knot adorned with pearl and floral bridal clips.
Messy Bun
If you're aiming for a more relaxed and effortless look, a messy bun is a perfect choice. Play with different variations, such as a low messy bun with face-framing pieces or a high messy top knot with chunky, sleek strands.
Accessories
Add some sparkle to your bun with hair accessories. You can opt for fresh flowers, a bejeweled halo, or delicate hairpins with pearls, rhinestones, or tiny flowers.
Personalized Touch
Get creative and add a personalized accessory to your bun, such as a quirky brooch or a statement hairband.
Practice
Remember, with a little practice, you can achieve any of these elegant Indian wedding buns. Choose the style that resonates with you, and don't be afraid to make it your own!

How to make a half-up, half-down hairstyle for an Indian wedding
A half-up, half-down hairstyle is a great option for an Indian wedding as it is a versatile look that can be adapted to suit any hair type, length, and personal style. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to create this look:
Step 1: Wash and Condition Your Hair
Start by washing and conditioning your hair. This will help to ensure that your hair is smooth and silky for your wedding day. It is recommended to do this the day before your wedding to help maintain your hair's natural luster.
Step 2: Create a Middle or Side Part
Decide if you want a middle or side part for your hairstyle. A middle part will create a symmetrical style that enhances your features, while a side part can add a touch of glamour and vintage flair. You can also add a deep side part for a more dramatic effect.
Step 3: Curl or Straighten Your Hair
To add volume and texture to your half-up, half-down hairstyle, you can curl your hair using curling irons or hot rollers. Loose, barreling waves that tumble down your back will create a romantic and glamorous look. Alternatively, you can opt for a sleek and shiny finish by straightening your hair with a flat iron.
Step 4: Pull Back the Top Half of Your Hair
Gather the top half of your hair, starting from your crown and working towards your ears. You can either secure it with an elastic at the midway point or go for a higher placement by creating a ponytail or bun on the crown of your head. This will give a fun and flirty feel to your hairstyle.
Step 5: Add Braids or Twists (Optional)
For a whimsical touch, you can incorporate braids or twists into your half-up, half-down hairstyle. You can opt for a waterfall braid, a French braid, or a few twists throughout your hair. This adds visual interest and an unexpected edge to your look.
Step 6: Accessorize (Optional)
Accessories can elevate your hairstyle and make it even more special. You can add a sparkling clip, a beaded pin, a gilded crown, or a delicate floral hairpiece. You can also incorporate fresh flowers, such as jasmine, into your hair for a traditional Indian touch.
Step 7: Secure Your Veil (Optional)
If you plan on wearing a veil, the half-up, half-down hairstyle provides the perfect secure place for it to rest. You can divide two pieces of hair in the front to create a middle part and secure your veil with a comb or hairpins.
Step 8: Finish with Hairspray
Finally, set your hairstyle with a light mist of hairspray to ensure it lasts throughout your wedding day. This will help to keep any flyaways at bay and maintain the shape of your curls or waves.

Accessories are an integral part of any bridal ensemble in Indian weddings. They can really amp up your look, no matter what type of accessories you pick. Here are some ways to accessorise your hair for an Indian wedding:
Flowers
Flowers are a huge part of the Indian bridal look. Flowers like jasmine, roses, orchids, carnations, or baby's breath can be woven through braids or buns, or done in loops. Flowers can also be used to add pops of colour to polished updos.
Gajras
Gajras are floral accessories that are commonly used at Indian weddings. They can be intertwined with braids to create a unique blended hairstyle. They can also be worn diagonally in a half-up, half-down hairstyle.
Maang Tikka and Matha Patti
The Maang Tikka and Matha Patti are headpieces worn by Indian brides. The Maang Tikka is a simple string with a bejewelled pendant resting on the bride's temple. The Matha Patti is bulkier and more elaborate, with two or more strings and plenty of embellishments. The pendant on a Matha Patti is also bigger.
Juda
A Juda is a bun, which can be simple or extravagant. They are a perfect accessory and can even be worn without the traditional bun. A half-up top-knot can also hold the Juda in place.
Headbands
Headbands are a hassle-free hair accessory. They can be embroidered or embellished with shimmering stones and can instantly elevate your look.
Juda Pins
If you plan on wearing your hair in a bun, Juda pins can be added to make your look stand out.
Billai
A Billai is a hair accessory commonly worn by South Indian brides. It involves ornaments running down the length of a plait.
Jhoomar
A Jhoomar sits on the side of the head and adds an old-world charm to your look. It can be a traditional piece with pearls or a pendant-style design.
Clips
Clips can be used to add a subtle layer of bling to your look without drawing too much attention.
Headpieces
Headpieces can be used to accessorise short hair. A bob haircut with a subtle flower crown or a headpiece offers a chic and contemporary appearance.
Hair Jewellery
Hair jewellery like pearls, beads, and chains can be used to decorate braids and buns.

How to make a ponytail for an Indian wedding
Ponytails are a versatile hairstyle that can be adapted to suit any wedding, whether you're channelling your inner Ariana Grande or aiming for a boho-chic look. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to create a ponytail for an Indian wedding:
Step 1: Preparation
Before styling your hair, it is important to prepare your hair to ensure it is smooth and free of tangles. Start by applying a heat protectant or texturizing spray to your hair. This will help to protect your hair from any heat damage and add some hold to your style. You may also want to use a smoothing serum to get rid of any frizz and create a sleek look.
Step 2: Parting
Once your hair is prepared, you can begin to style it. Start by parting your hair. You can part it down the middle or to the side, depending on your preference and the style you want to create.
Step 3: Ponytail
Gather your hair at the desired height – a high ponytail will give you a sleek and elegant look, while a low ponytail is perfect for a relaxed, boho vibe. Secure your hair with a hair tie. If you want to add some volume, you can use hair extensions or backcomb your hair before securing the ponytail.
Step 4: Styling
There are many ways to style your ponytail. You can keep it simple with soft curls or romantic waves. Alternatively, you can add braids, twists, or flowers for a more intricate look. For a modern twist, you can incorporate hair accessories such as pearl pins, a gold hair clip, or a fresh flower vine.
Step 5: Finishing Touches
To finish your ponytail, you may want to add some hairspray to hold the style in place. You can also pull out some strands of hair to frame your face or add some volume at the crown.
- Voluminous High Ponytail: Add hair extensions for a high-volume look.
- Bubble Ponytail: Create a bubble effect by dividing the ponytail into sections and securing them with hair ties.
- Braided Ponytail: Add a braid to your ponytail for a romantic, fairytale-inspired look.
- Twisted Ponytail: Add some texture and dimension by twisting sections of your hair before securing them in the ponytail.
- Low Ponytail with Braids and Hair Pins: Combine a boho vibe with modern touches by adding braids and pearl hair pins to a textured low ponytail.
- Glam Ponytail: Finish off your ponytail with a floral hair comb or a pearl barrette for a glamorous look.
- Ponytail with Veil: For a unique and unconventional style, pair your ponytail with a veil.
Ponytails are a versatile and elegant hairstyle that can be adapted to suit the specific requirements of an Indian wedding. By following these steps and trying out different styles, you can create a beautiful ponytail look for your special day.
