If you are getting married this year, you would have already started preparations for a lot of things, including the planning for your bridal look.
Your bridal hairstyle doesn’t have to be boring or traditional. It can be fresh, modern, and something that your photographer for an Indian wedding would love to capture.
In this blog, I have shared 9 stunning hairstyles for asian brides getting married this season.
Whether you’re a bold lady, a classicist, a bohemian spirit, or a modern romantic, we have got something for everyone.
1. Classic Chignon Bun
The chignon bun is the perfect option for modern brides preferring a minimal look. ‘Chignon du cou’ is a French phrase which means ‘nape of the neck’ as it sits effortlessly on the nape of your neck. It also goes well with most Indian wedding dresses. You can add some fresh flowers for a feminine look. As your hair is styled back, make sure your skin and makeup shinesout.
2. Half-up, Half-down
A lot of Indian brides are styling their hair open with a veil these days, inspired by Alia Bhatt. The half-up, half-down hairstyle is a suitable choice for Indian brides looking for a regal look. You not only get to show off your hair but the hair being gently pulled back from the top allows your face to shine. You can add details like twists or braids or a few accessories to make your hairstyle even better.
3. Messy Mane
A messy mane is the perfect Indian wedding hairstyle for brides who love a bohemian vibe. Loose waves, textured buns, or half-up half-down styles with cascading curls can create a romantic and effortless vibe. These styles are perfect for brides who want a more relaxed and natural look, while still maintaining a touch of glamour. Accessorise with floral crowns, hair vines, or delicate hair pins to complete the look.
4. Romantic Curls
If you don’t want an updo for your wedding, you can opt for soft curls. This is also ideal for Indian brides that have naturally long and thick hair. Whether you prefer loose waves or tighter ringlets, there are countless ways to style your hair with soft curls. For a more modern twist, try a side braid with soft curls cascading down one side. To go a step further, you can dust your roots with volumizing powder. Finish it off with a finishing spray to prevent your waves from getting frizzy.
5. Braided Ponytail
Braided hairstyles are a suitable choice for brides who want a comfortable and stylish hairstyle that lasts throughout the day. From classic French braids to intricate fishtail braids, there are countless ways to incorporate braids into a ponytail hairstyle. You can add accessories like flowers, hair vines, or embellished hair ties to enhance the look. Braided ponytails are not only visually appealing but also practical, keeping hair out of your face and allowing you to dance and enjoy your special day without worrying about your hairstyle.
6. South Indian Braid
South Indian bridal hairstyles are quite famous as they use expensive gold accessories. You can add gajra flowers at top and a parandi. Popular styles include the “Jada Maila,” a long, thick braid adorned with flowers and jewels, and the “Jada Billa,” a braided bun with a decorative hairpin. The “Venkatalakshmi Braid” is another classic style, characterised by its intricate weaving pattern and the use of traditional South Indian jewellery. For a modern twist, you can add loose braids or a messy bun.
7. Side Dutch Braid
Side dutch braids offer a stylish and modern twist to traditional side ponytails. These braids are created by crossing sections of hair under each other, rather than over, resulting in a visually striking and textured look. They can be worn alone, paired with loose waves, or incorporated into more intricate updos.
8. Rose-Structured Bun
Perfect for brides who want to stand out, this hairstyle is inspired by the beauty of roses. It is a bun hairstyle that resembles rose petals. It’s a romantic and whimsical option that adds an eye-catching element that stands out in your Asian wedding photography. Rose-structured buns can be adorned with delicate hair accessories, such as flowers, kundan jewelry, or hair vines, to enhance their beauty and elegance.
