Some popular types of Indian hairstyles.

Indian Buns
Buns have always remained a popular choice among Indian women. Usually, buns are possible in medium to long hair. Hair that reaches just below the shoulders can also be tied up in a bun, though it may not really look like a traditional one. Indian bun is a hairstyle that can be worn on many occasions. Be it a formal office meeting, wedding, party or simply going to someone’s place, a bun is the kind of hairstyle that makes sure that hair is in one place and does not become messy. There are many styles that can be incorporated in a bun. It can be tied high or low, depending on the occasion and can also be decorated with accessories like pins, clips, jewelry, flowers, etc. as per the event you are going to.

Indian Braids
Tying a braid is the best way to keep the hair from getting tangled and dirty. In India, even school-going girls who have hair length that reaches below shoulders are required to tie up their hair neatly in a braid. A braid can also be tied in many different styles. In earlier times, two braids used to signify that a girl is unmarried while a single braid used to be worn by a married woman. Girls with medium to long hair braid their hair and can accessorize it with colorful rubber bands, ribbons and clips.

Inspired by Celebrities
The present generation is much inspired by celebrities and tends to copy the hairstyle made popular by them on-screen. Be it boys or girls, the hottest hairstyle is the one that their favorite star carries. Almost all boys opted for long hair when the famous John Abraham was rising to popularity. The moment he chopped off his locks, so did his loyal fans! The spiked hair style made famous by Aamir Khan went down well with all urban dudes, while some even went to the extent of getting crew cuts, as donned by Akshaye Khanna. The short blunt hairstyle donned by the famous actress Kajol became a rage among girls while some others preferred the crimped hair style of Preity Zinta.

Indians give more importance to hair style and specially the south Indians have a passion to grow their hairs as long as possible, They feel that lengthy hair adds more beauty to them.

I agree. I think long hair is very beautiful. However, I like to keep mine about shoulder length or mid-back. It's just too hard to keep up with

I find it amusing to look at Indian women with braids, they seem very united and neat looking.
