Ornamented Plait

This is the most common hairstyle in South India. brides are known to plait their long, black, luscious hair in a tight plait and then add jewellery and flowers to give it a festive look. This hairstyle is meretricious and makes the bride look grand. But it sports a lot of ornaments and shows very little of the bride’s hair.

A substitute for plait in case of long hair is a ponytail. Now a simple ponytail will seem too informal and will make you look underdressed on your wedding. So you use elastic ties decorated with rhinestones. Tie several of these on your ponytail at regular intervals, to make it look more decorative and shiny.

3. Jasmines:
