Shoes? Check. Makeup? Check. Lehenga? Check. Hairstyle? *PANIC*
How often have you found yourself haphazardly braiding a small portion of your hair while running very late to a wedding, then eventually giving up and settling for the same old open hair? You don’t have to run to your mom or your sister at the last minute to fix your hair anymore, because we have come up with these 7 cute hairstyles to go with your lehenga so that you can be prepared for any grand occasion!
1. Poker-straight sleek hairstyle
The classic poker-straight hairstyle with a middle partition is a celeb-approved trend. Bollywood stars like Deepika Padukone, Alia Bhatt, Anushka Sharma and Sonam Kapoor have frequently been spotted with this hairstyle across various outfits. But what caught our eye is how great it looks with a lehenga! You too can sport this look with your lehenga, and spice it up with smokey eye makeup or a statement earring.
2. Classic gajra bun
The traditional gajra bun is a timeless masterpiece among hairstyles, winning hearts since forever. If you too adore traditional styles, then this is your go-to hairstyle with your lehenga for any occasion. It also highlights your feminine features and looks classy from behind. A pair of Kundan Chandbalis would complement the hairstyle. Unlike all the other hairstyles, the gajra bun possesses an unmissable old-school charm!
3. French mohawk braid
Not a fan of classics? This bold variant of the French braid is the one for you. If you have highlights or coloured hair, then this hairstyle is perfect for you as it pops the colour and enhances the appearance of your hairdo. It is also a hassle-free hairstyle because you won’t have to worry about your hair getting in your face every time you twirl in that lehenga. You could curl the ends to give it some sass!
4. Low sleek ponytail
Among all the other hairstyles, this one is the simplest but also the classiest. It does not take a lot to pull this off. If you are going for an old-school, vintage look, then this hairstyle will make an excellent choice. It draws more attention to your facial features and gives a put-together vibe. Massive gold-plated hoops or hooks would make a great match and take the oomph factor up a notch.
5. Messy braided updo
A fashionable hairdo is all about being creative and experimenting here and there. This dreamy look is perfect for you if you want to go all chic. The braid adds classiness to the hairstyle while the messiness of it makes it striking. Just tease a few strands, and you’re good to go! You could also amp up the hairstyle with hair accessories like faux flowers, kundans, pearl barrettes and more.
6. Twisted sides
This elegant yet easy-going hairstyle is one of our favourites and could be yours too! Do you want to look like you put effort into your hair without actually working much on it? Then this hairstyle does the work. You don’t need to learn how to braid for this, unlike other complex-looking hairstyles. All you’ve got to do is twist! Maybe spice it up with beach waves on the ends?
7. Side braids
Side braids have been in the limelight for quite a long time, but we assure you, they will never go out of style! This is why you should pick this chic hairstyle if you like going for softer, more sober looks. You can play with messy braids, fishtail braids, French braids or Dutch braids. This hairdo leaves a lot of room for enhancements and creativity!
