Taking cue from Hollywood, we have also been very flattered by Marilyn Monroe. So, whether she flaunted her long wavy finger curls, or a short and twisted bob, or even a plain wavy blunt, the diva brought out the real-retro through each of her style. Similarly, Jacqueline Kennedy’s soft blunt cut with finger waves always remind us of Hollywood’s golden days, and also the time when all women wanted to copy her hairstyle.

While puffy hairstyles have been adding a dash of old world charm in the brides, short cuts are the favourite amongst the bridesmaids.

Let us admit it that it is the bride who steals all the attention at her wedding, obviously, it is her day after all! While, bridesmaids are often short of time to visit a salon, so they wish to style their tresses in the best way possible.

Don’t worry as we shares an easy step-by-step DIY hairstyle, which the bridesmaid can make herself! The bride too can don this hairstyle, for other important functions such as sangeet, cocktail, etc.

Step 1: Start with a side partition. Take a small hair segment towards the front hairline, and divide it into three sections (ABC), same as you would do for a usual French braid.

Step 2: Next, start braiding by pulling strand A across strand B. Repeat the process by pulling strand C across strand B.

Step 3: Now, let strand C loose; while making it fall with the rest of the tresses.

Step 4: Take another strand, preferably right below the forming braid, to replace strand C followed by folding-up the new strand over strand B.

Step 5: Pick a further section of hair to strand A and crease over. Keep continuing the procedure around the crown by repeating steps 3-5.

Step 6: Finish the waterfall braid by braiding horizontally down the crown, and secure with a thin typical braid pin behind the ear, to emerge like an ultimate chic bridesmaid.
