10 Easy Hairstyles for Indian Straight Hair

Whether you're new to wigs or a seasoned veteran, you've probably come across wigs made from hair from different parts of the world. 

Wigs are made from hair from Brazil to China to Malaysia–the options are endless. However, one type of wigs that really stands out from the rest are those made with Indian hair - particularly Indian straight hair. 

Indian hair wigs are definitely the most popular wigs.Statistics prove that when it comes to straight hair wigs, few wigs can compete with those made from Indian hair.


Is Indian hair good for wigs?

Indian hair is highly sought after because of its quality, texture, and versatility. These qualities make it the preferred choice for high-quality wigs and extensions. 

What makes Indian hair so popular is the  thickness, softness, and luster of each strand of hair. In addition, the hair is often straight, making it ideal for Indian straight hair wigs! 

Another plus point is that most Indian hair is sourced from donors who live in rural areas. They have never used any chemical treatments on their hair –in fact most of them do not even wash their hair with shampoo. They use local, indigenous products to clean their hair. 

As a result, Indian straight hair is natural and has not been damaged by harsh chemicals or styling tools. 


The hair collected from rural areas is then processed and crafted into wigs perfect for anyone looking for a wig that has a sleek and smooth look. One of the most popular types of wigs made from Indian hair is the straight hair wig. The texture of Indian hair is naturally straight, making it the perfect choice for those looking for a sleek and polished look. 


Let us look at 10 easy hairstyles for Indian straight hair.

  • Sleek Low Ponytail
  • Trendy and chic, a sleek low ponytail is a hairstyle that offers a lot for very little. 

    To create this sleek and elegant hairstyle, apply a product like a mousse and get all your hair together. Comb your Indian straight hair wig and gather it at the nape of your neck. Use a hair tie to secure it in a low ponytail, and use a hair serum or gel to smooth out any flyaways or bumps. 

    Perfect for formal occasions or the office, this hairstyle is easy to achieve with minimal effort. Plus, it looks great on most face shapes, making it quite a favorite among women with Indian straight hair wigs! 

  • Messy Bun
  • One of the easier Indian straight hair styles to create is the messy bun. It has become quite popular over the last few years. 

    Gather your Indian straight hair wig into a high ponytail, twist the hair around the ponytail to create a bun, and secure it with bobby pins. Where you place the bun is entirely up to you. You can choose to go high or low, as the mood or occasion dictates! 

    Once your bun is in place, pull some strands of hair from the bun to create a messy look.


  • Classic French Twist
  • The French twist is a classic hairstyle that never goes out of style! Gather your Indian straight hair wig into a low ponytail at the nape of your neck. For a finished look that twists from left to right, you'll want to brush the hair to the left side. If you prefer a right-to-left twist, reverse the direction and go to the right. 

    Twist the ponytail upwards and tuck it into itself, securing it with bobby pins. A popular styling technique is to create several crisscrosses going straight up the back of your head. This also helps achieve a good hold and keeps the Indian straight hair in place.

    Use a hair accessory like a comb or clip to secure the twist and add elegance to the look.


  • Half-Up Half-Down
  • The half-up half-down hairstyle is perfect for a casual day out. It's a simple style that looks classy and contemporary. To create this look, section off the top half of your Indian straight hair wig and gather it into a half ponytail, securing it with a hair tie. Let the rest of your hair flow, and add some loose curls or waves for added volume.

    Consider applying a serum to help smooth your Indian straight hair. Keep the hair in place all day with the help of a spray hair mist. You can add your twist to this style by adding French braids, fishtail braids, or similar variations. Use flowers to adorn your hair. 

    Because the half-up half-down is versatile, don't be surprised to see numerous variations! 


  • Side Part with Waves
  • This hairstyle is perfect for a night out or a party. Start by creating a deep side part and adding loose waves to your Indian straight hair wig. You can use a curling iron or hot rollers to create the waves. Then, take a large, flat hair brush (like a paddle brush) and brush up and over from left to right. To avoid the waves, you can bring them around the nape and over gently by hand. When you're all done, tuck a side behind the ear and sweep the rest over the shoulder!

    You can use a hair spray to hold the waves of your Indian straight hair wig in place. This will also add shine to your hair, making it look healthier and regal! 


  • The Bob
  • With short hairstyles becoming increasingly popular, it's no surprise the bob is one of the most sought-after looks. It is a timeless hairstyle that can be achieved with an Indian straight hair wig. 

    To start, dampen or wet your hair with some water. You can add some styling agent if you feel the hair isn't going to stay in place. 

    Part the hair above your ears horizontally. Lift the hair and clip it, leaving the bottom hair hanging down. Take the loose hair and set it on top of your round brush. Blow dry the hair over the round brush, turning it as you pull it down through your hair. Repeat the process through all sections of your hair and you'll be sporting a bob in no time! 

    The length of the bob can vary from chin length to shoulder. If you like, add some layers to the Indian straight hair wig to give it some volume and texture. This hairstyle is perfect for any occasion and can be styled differently for a more casual or formal look.

  • High Bun
  • A high bun is a classic and sophisticated hairstyle that can be done quickly. Gather your Indian straight hair wig into a high ponytail and twist the hair around the ponytail to create a high bun. The direction of the twist doesn't affect the integrity of the bun but can be used to add some extra style. Use bobby pins to secure the bun and add some hairspray for hold.

    For some extra personalization, you leave one thick strand loose. Braid this strand and wrap it around the base of the bun. You'll have to secure it by tucking the end under the bun. You may need a bobby pin to keep it in place. This helps add a personal touch and gives a simple hairstyle some extra oomph!

    After securing the Indian straight hair into a bun, braid this strand of hair and wrap it around the base for added flare and sophistication. Secure the braid by tucking the end under the bun and using a bobby pin to keep it in place.

  • Side Braid
  • The side braid is a simple and elegant hairstyle that can be easily achieved with an Indian straight hair wig. Start by creating a deep side part and gather the hair on one side - which side is entirely up to you. You'll need to ensure the shortest pieces aren't too short to braid. If you part on the right, the hair should be on the left side and vice versa. 

    Divide the hair into 3 even sections. Try not to move the braid once you get started. Braid as you would, crisscrossing the 3 strands and alternating sides. When you reach your preferred length, secure the ends of your Indian straight hair wig with an elastic band, and you're done!

  • Sleek Side Ponytail
  • The sleek side ponytail is a modern and chic hairstyle that you can have with an Indian straight hair wig. Start by applying some hair serum or gel to make your hair sleek and shiny. 

    Brush your hair to remove any tangles. Gather your hair to one side of your head - whichever side you prefer. You can then tie it into a high or low ponytail, as you wish. 

    To complete the look, spray the bristles of your brush with a finishing texture spray. As you brush your hair, you'll apply the product evenly all over, making your Indian straight hair look fuller! 

  • Beach Waves
  • For a more fun and casual everyday look, go for beach waves on your Indian straight hair! You'll need to use heat tools and heat protectants for this look. 

    Pull the top section of the Indian straight hair wig up into a bun or ponytail, leaving the hair near the nape of your neck untied. Spray a heat protectant, ensuring it covers all your hair. With a flat iron or curling iron, curl your hair lock by lock, starting with the tips of your hair. Hold for a moment before releasing. Remove the hair tie from the top and repeat the process. Don't forget to apply heat protectant and finish with a texturizing spray for a beachy vibe.

    In conclusion, Indian straight hair wigs are an excellent choice for those looking for a sleek and polished look. With their thick and luscious hair, soft and smooth texture, and natural shine and luster, Indian hair wigs are easy to style and maintain.
