Popular among many South Indian brides, it looks good on women with long hair. A long, braided hairstyle is incomplete without flowers to enhance the look. This hairstyle is common even among brides who don’t have long hair but increase the hair length with false hair. The way the braid is tied also holds importance as it shouldn’t be too loose or too tight. The long braid can be accessorised with flowers or beads.
