From Kiara To Tara, Side-Swept Hair Is Claiming Its Crown

The side-part has descended upon Instagram, and this hairstyle’s landing has been anything but soft — solidifying its status as chic and dependable, and modelling its versatility across the industry, it’s become a celebrity-favourite. While detractors of the side-part had pronounced the centre-part chic and supreme, it looks like something has changed over the course of a few weeks — even the free-flowing cascade of Tara’s tresses, a proponent of the centre-part as spotlighted by her feed, hasn’t escaped the dynamism of the side-part. Ahead — a look at how it has shaped aesthetics and supplied us with fodder for our mood boards.

Everyone’s Doing Their Hair Like This

Tara Sutaria

Tara’s makeup and hairdos are equal amounts of glamorous — but one never overpowers the other. This one’s no exception — while Sutaria’s feed solidifies her as a proponent of the centre parting, this photoshoot exudes poise thanks to her sweeping side-part climaxed with a handful of ash-blonde highlights. You can add a little movement and body to your hair with a volume-inducing spray/mousse, and conclude with a few spritzes of hairspray to hold the style.

Kiara Advani

Kiara’s knack for simplicity when it comes to makeup is evident, but the principle doesn’t extend to her ‘dos. The 30-year-old actress has dabbled in many a head-turning hairstyle — with jewel-encrusted braids headlining the list. But this side part’s sultry and stylish — her hair cascading past her shoulders in waves of seduction. Just part your hair to the side, and spritz a hair spray to hold the style effortlessly.

Ananya Panday

Ananya’s a recent adoptee of the bob — from Kim Kardashian to Disha Patani, this shoulder-grazing ‘do is manifesting itself across the industry. Coupled with a side-part, the bob has been modelled quite extravagantly. If you’re planning on cutting your hair short, let this style play muse to your hairstylist’s scissors. From interspersing your mane with the subtlest of waves to adding outward curls at the ends of your tresses as demonstrated in this photoshoot, there’s a lot of playing around you can do with your hair in this avatar. The soft layers on the crown of the female lead of Liger are serving looks!

Janhvi Kapoor

Janhvi’s cascade of unruly waves epitomises glamour — married to the scarlet-red of her lips and ensemble, her mane plays into the sensuality of her look. Just toss your hair to the side, ruffle it up a little bit, and you’re wearing a Kapoor-approved ‘do within seconds. Need we point out the fact that she looks sultry AF?

Alia Bhatt

Alia’s hairstyle is a demonstration of the versatility that a side part brings to the table. It flatters fine and thin hair just as much as it flatters a thicker mane — and it reigns supreme in capturing her boss-babe aesthetic — further rendering this hairstyle as an absolutely versatile one.

Alaya F

It’s like a fairy has descended upon Earth, and sprinkled a little bit of her magic all over Alaya. There’s no denying that the side part’s prowess lies in its ability to bring out different aesthetics — and this one’s the dreamiest iteration of the lot. Looking like a muse with this side-parted hairstyle, Alaya is proof that a side-parting on your hair can turn tables and how!
