About Bridal & Wedding Hairstyling
I’m all about making your wedding hair look like you, just a bit more special. My thing is creating moods with hair, whether it’s soft glam, a floral explosion, or something simple but beautiful. I want your hair to feel like the best version of you, no matter if it’s for your Sangeet, Mehandi, or the big wedding day.
My Signature Styles
I love making buns and updos, especially my floral bridal hair bun - think sleek or messy buns loaded with fresh flowers like roses and chrysanthemum. I’m also into textured buns, romantic braids, and those modern bubble plaits you see on Insta. South Indian bridal braid is another fav - I go all out with decorations if that’s your vibe.
Waves and curls are a big part of my work too. If you want Hollywood waves for brides, or just soft, beachy waves for a chill event, I’ve got you. Half-up, half-down is a go-to for a lot of my brides, since it’s easy to dance in and looks cute for everything.
Accessories & Details
Accessories matter, yaar. I use fresh flowers, pearls, butterfly clips, crystals, or even bows made from your own hair. You tell me what works with your lehenga, and I’ll figure it out.
For Every Function
I don’t just do the main wedding - I style for every event, from pool parties to brunches, receptions, and those epic Mehandi nights. I’m Delhi-based but I go wherever you need, from Goa beaches to Udaipur palaces. Hair ke liye tension mat lo (don’t stress about the hair).
