10 Traditional Hairstyles Every Bride Will Love

Weddings are a period of time in our lives when we go back to our roots and worship our tradition. The presence of tradition is incredibly prevalent in our outfits especially in our hairstyles, which really ties a look together. Here are 10 different hairstyles from different regions, making sure you look your best, most Indian self during your wedding! 

  • Bengali braided bun

    Start by sectioning the hair into 3 equal parts. Then, carefully braid the 2 sections on each side. Take the middle section and wrap the hair round its centre to make a bun. Make sure you use a lot of pins to fasten the bun in place. Drape both the braids on either side around the sides of the head and onto the bun, fastening the braids with pins. A gorgeous Bengali bridal hairstyle!

  • Bengali hairstyle khopa

    This is a more traditional Bengali bun, and dates back to our mothers’ and grandmothers’ weddings. Start by washing and conditioning your hair with Pantene Pro V. Then, make a ponytail. Then, take small clumps of hair and roll it inwards until you reach the scalp. Fasten this roll with lots of pins. Do this for the entirety of your hair. This will give your hair a nice and full look!

  • Floral side bun

    This look is a quintessential Marathi bridal hairstyle. Start by curling your hair. Then, take this curled hair and wrap it around the side of your head. Ensure that the curls are on display and fasten those using lots of bobby pins. As a finishing touch, embed a large lily flower into the centre of your bun!

  • Gujarati side braid

    This look is one of the many Gujarati bridal hairstyles. Start by brushing all your hair behind. Then, break it into 2 segments and intertwine them together, until you reach the bottom of your neck. From the bottom of your neck, begin braiding your hair until the end. Wrap some flowers around the hair as well!

  • Punjabi braid

    Since Punjabi hair is usually thick, they wear a special 5 section braid. This Punjabi bridal hairstyle starts by sectioning the hair into 5 segments. Then, like a braid, the segment most to the left is moved over the second segment to become the second segment. This continues until all the hair is used up!

  • Head jewellery

    Wash and condition your hair, making it voluminous. Then, wrap a gorgeous headgear around your forehead onto your hair, making a lovely and simple traditional hairstyle!

  • Floral Bun

    First, tie a low ponytail. Wrap the ponytail around your head into a bun and use bobby pins to secure it in place. Arrange the flower garland around the bun and secure that too with pins.

  • Messy bun

    First, make a ponytail that isn’t pulled through entirely! Tuck the tail of the ponytail into the ponytail. To make the bun fuller, pull your hair in the bun from all sides. Do the same to all the hair outside the bun, giving your hair a puffy look!

  • Side-parted curls

    Firstly, curl the bottom 4 inches of your hair, one section at a time. Then, move all the hair to one side. Take one section of hair from each side, pin them at their intersection at the back of your head!

  • Low bun

    Start by typing low ponytail at the bottom of your neck. Inside your ponytail, fashion a gap to stick ponytail into again. You will notice your ponytail sticking out after you’ve pushed it in. Braid this part of the ponytail and tuck it into the gap in the ponytail. If you like, you can add some hair ornaments to make the look more festive!

And there you go! 10 traditional hairstyles for the gorgeous traditional bride in you!
