Hairstyle for a lehenga with thin hair

The right hairstyle finishes a lehenga look. On thin hair, side-swept waves, a full low bun or a long braid all work with a little added hair. Here is how.

A lehenga deserves a hairstyle that matches it, and the three looks that suit a lehenga best all need body or length that thin hair often lacks. Add a little hair and each one works.

Side-swept waves

Soft waves swept to one side sit beautifully with a lehenga and show off earrings. Thin hair goes flat, so a seven piece clip in set adds the length and body the waves need, held on low heat.

Full low bun with accessories

A low bun leaves the neckline clean for heavy jewellery. Volume wefts or a small topper at the crown give the bun the fullness it needs, and gajra or pins sit securely once there is body to hold them.

Long dressed braid

A thick, dressed braid works with a traditional lehenga. Clip in wefts add length and weight so the braid stays full to the end, where thin hair usually thins out.

Match the shade to your lengths

Whatever look you choose, match the added hair to the section it sits against, usually the crown and the lengths around it. Compare in daylight so the colour blends.

Questions

What hairstyle suits a lehenga with thin hair?

Side-swept waves, a full low bun or a long dressed braid all suit a lehenga. Each needs a little added hair on thin hair, either volume at the crown or length through the lengths.

How do I get a full braid for a lehenga?

Clip in wefts through the mid and lower sections add length and weight, so the braid stays full to the tail.
